If Scott Norwide kicks the ball like that vs the Giants the Bills would've won the Super Bowl.

Someone mentioned earlier that Dubas is thinking of having those two together. Although Babs might put them with other partners just to troll Dubas, so who knows what we'll see when the new season starts.

It's actually funny how Dubas builds his team then has Babcock as coach.

McBackup posted a .934 two years ago...only played 18 games. Thanks Babs.

Andersen may be more of a 50-55 game starter. Seems that way.

I love how Gardiner, Zaitsev and Hainsey have gotten so much better since July 1st. LOL

And Barrie is a defensive liability PP specialist.

Harpur is genuinely garbage. Another prototypical "defensive defenseman" who gets caved in on shot attempts and can't move the puck. He'll probably be a Marlie.

Maybe he can watch some Chara videos. He can learn how to do a great defensive cross-check

Maybe take some time off the web, you’re going crazy.

They are very expensive. Well so I've heard. 😉

I remember a while ago my brother had some weird tech show or something on and they were doing a feature about a dude that took in used blowup dolls and cleaned and fixed them up. I think he then resold them or sometimes the person that gave it to him would pay him and take it back.

Apparently some had a lot of spooge in them still. And some were practically destroyed with like, arms ripped off and poop. Although that could've been a curious dog or something rather than the person using it.

It's like Dr. Evil walking into a barber shop and asking for a perm.

We’ll be fine, most teams need a few tweaks. I read an article about Barrie when the Leafs were looking at him back in 16, the Leafs wanted him and he was at the bottom of the barrel in analytics. He just needs to be paired with a stay home D ( and no it doesn’t mean the D is poopty ) last thing you want is 2 guys who jump and pinch all the time. IMO

And I’m out, September will be fun...some new faces always brings some excitement regardless if they’re good or bad. 🤘🏻🤓🤘🏻

For sure. But how dare I suggest they need a solid stay at home defensemen. Blasphemy!

Go to Kijiji "Lightly Used".

(frank) b’y, I haggle ppl on Kijiji everyday.

But he's huge and he's a stay at home, none of the other things matter. You need him

Give Roeper a break. At the time Paul Dreger had begun talking about Marner being offer sheeted. Roeper needed an outlet. Or multiple outlets.

They'll just pick up Polak again.

Slid down and replaced with Marincin? Who?
- aminnes

So weak.

Let us know when you figure out who Ceci was playing with last season and if Barrie wasn't overplayed as COL's #1D, usually facing QOC he shouldn't be with a mediocre partner. Let's not even get into the OTT forwards or the COL forwards after their first line.

You got blasted for suggesting our defense actually got worse and for using +/- as your proof on the defensive quality of certain players. Not just for your wish for a defensive defenseman.

Like I said earlier, Barrie should not be facing other teams top lines. He is a PP guy who needs a hard nosed homer to play with. Unfortunately that means he must play with a guy who sucks and can't pass because dudes on hockey buzz say so.

My sex doll was of Dreger

I think some read too much James Tanner

Player has a 52% Corsi and all of a sudden that means he never has to play in his own end of the rink.

You need a guy who plays safe and a guy who can wheel on each pair I think.

Even watching Hainsey, he was usually in his box around the net, then you watch a guy like Borgman or Marincin even Dermott sometimes, chasing the puck and leaving their guy wide open.

Blasted?

Worse defensively, absolutely.

+- is all fake. It's all fake! Thank you cake boy, cakester, cake eater... Whatever. You made me a better person.
