botts wants the kids to win together as a group in rochester


holding them all back as long as he can and then after he assesses the mess with the big club, sprinkle a few kids in the second half

Can't wait tbh.

What about guys like Bailey, Fasching and Baptiste? Are they not ready or just not good enough? I thought one or two would be with the Sabres. bailey is a guy I would like on the Flyers because the Flyers are just too small on the wings right now.

They're decent prospects, far from finished in their development, though. We have enough forwards, maybe close to a dozen who will be solid on the bottom six when finished with their development, but what we need is or for a few of these guys to breakout into top six potential. We have a college guy, C.J. Smith that looks like he might have a shot at that, more than a point per game in the AHL right now. Nylander "should" be to six and Mittlstadt looks like he'll be top six, but other than that, it's a waiting/guessing game.

He and C.J. Smith are two players who need to get a look with Eichel this year to see what they have there.

Bailey hasn't shown much at the NHl level, but he hasn't had a full year yet either.

I have never liked Fasching, but some think he's a good net-front scorer

Tim Connolly approves this post

Kane wants 7.5 to 8 mil per

they can't afford that given ror, okposo, bogo, etc deals

ror needs either faster wingers, or they need a faster center

perhaps that puts ror on the wing with jack if he is not shipped

eichel is fine 5 on 5, next to no pp points

locker room has no leaders in it, biggest problem other than being a slow team

Depends what Housley does with them.

Smith and Baptiste need to be with Eichel and O'Reilly. That's gonna tell us if they're NHL scorers.

If they're thrown with Nolan, Wilson, Larsson and Girgs, it's a waste of time

I havent seen any of the LOTR movies, either. I’m just commenting on how deep into make believe people are willing to go.

And I tried to play DND once with a kid named Eric Grape. But I told him there were too many rules, and then I left to go play baseball.

Of course, in the world of make believe, I have been known to say I think we’re going to be good.

Well it’s not like movies are all that realistic
Even the ones based in the “real world” like James Bond or whatever are completely ridiculous

Pouliot has more goals than Marner and William Nylander combined this year

I am fine with a line of Smith-E Rod and Baptiste


keep these kids as far away from any center not named Jack

Yurizan Beltran


gerbe probably gives her a 2
- homiedclown

I don’t think she’s all that great looking from the pic u posted either

Wouldn’t kick her outta bed though

“Average” for me is a 4
3- cute, but could lose some lbs
2- not very attractive
1- yikes

I’d give her a 5
I’m a tough grader though

yes, yes, you dont like ROR

2 things I heard, not from my really good source

1. ror to islanders, jt to leafs in a big three way trade


2. ror to penguins for maatta and prospects


again not my good source
- homiedclown

I would HATE both of those
Yikes

Perfect 4th line, fire the rest currently on the 4th line

Neither makes sense so I'd doubt it on both fronts

Without a pitcher in baseball, a team is screwed. So it is in the top 3.
- GilPerreault11

With average Starting pitching,
u can score 5-6 runs & win most games
So a good lineup can negate that

When Sbroads (or whoever) say stuff like Chicago won a Cup with Niemi, or Vegas is winning with scrubs in goal...

Well those are major exceptions not the rule

It’s like saying Dilfer won a Super Bowl,
or Tim Tebow won a playoff game

Yeah... it’s possible...
but you wouldn’t actually want to build your team like that

TRADE ALERT!

Joining Pittsburgh: Goaltender Michael Leighton and a 2019 fourth-round draft pick.

Joining Arizona: Forward Josh Archibald, goaltender Sean Maguire, and a 2019 sixth-round draft pick.

Name the 6 players Ruff choose in the playoffs, final minute of game 5 against the Rangers...

If by some miracle we could pull off a top 3 pick this year that would be pretty f'in awesome!

Rasmus Dahlin
Adam Boqvist

Both the kinda future Dmen we need or Svechnikov a very nice consolation prize.

What do we do if we land a second overall and Dahlin goes first?

Also I can't believe it's been 20 years.

You're mistaken! Every Toronto Maple Leaf is leading the league in every stat possible. Every Leaf is pure HOF gold!!!
