Funny story, I know a guy who actually did this. Ball tournament. Got way to drunk (probably some other things too). We lost him at the bar. Couldn’t find him the next day. Buddy got a call from a local number in Whiterock asking if we knew this kid. In his underwear, no wallet, no phone, no glasses, no other clothes, in sleeping in the backseat of this guys car. The walk of shame up to the dugout was epic!

lol fantastic.

A couple of my buddies put a guy ( I didn't really know him ) on a plane to Winnipeg as he was so drunk he had no clue what was happening and passed out. Before the computer era and all the security crap in the late 80's they booked him a ticket gave the Flight company some sob story and they wheelchaired him to his seat. He woke up in WPG 3-4 hours later and was not happy to say the least lol

I partied one night in North Van & woke up in Lynden Washington. I didn’t realize where I was & called my boss i might be a bit late. Hungover to the 9’s i went to my car & shortly found out i wasn’t 15mins from my job. Idk what happened or how the women got me across the border in my own car. I’m pretty sure i got no trim or if i did i didn’t perform worth shlt.

Today I learned the Leafs cap situation is rosy, thanks for stopping by.

NO, it's just not as bad as you dreamers are saying.
Leafs will trade guys like Brown and Zaitsev for cap relief and you will be disappointed.

Maybe the same crowd of GMs lining up to trade for Loui Eriksson contract will also want Zightmares contract

Van fans aren't disappointed when the Bruins beat the Leafs in the first round every year. No reason why it would be any different next season.

I can see Brown moved but Zaitsev is a tough one. Unlikely any takers. Sweetener needed for sure.

My resumes for any open GM position have not been answered. Idk why. My header said no anchor contracts on my watch. I followed that up with i’ve no GM experience. I can use a calculator. I love to travel. Can work all hours. Phone all the other GM’s at any hour & offer up crazy trades. Lastly i promise no GM will sleep well & will fear me & respect me both & give me a trade gift if i never call again. 30 trades later i will step away & resign. Leaves the next GM a fully stocked cup contender the likes of never seen before. That will be my legacy to all of my adoring Buzzers here.

Anchor contracts are fun and entertaining . It shields public opinion so that when you draft a guy like OJ and they don't pan out you can always say well at least it isn't as bad as Eriksson

Why not bring in a D man to fill gap while adding a good young player and draft a D instead

Think Carolina ...since that’s your new favourite model 😉

Zaitsev is not a good Dman and we would be looking to move him. No thanks . We just got rid of a cheaper Pouliot we don't need that terrible contract.

I can live with that if Sven is traded but still cannot swallow Zaitsev still. Gotta say find another team to trade Z to.
