I love and hate those at the same time

not knowing a second language by itself, but switching from a one language to the other in the same sentence. you know, like Justin does
a world recognized searcher told me that. we had a long conversation on the subject while waiting at the airport.

that's what I thought, told him that, but he said switching languages is even better

I heard he wanted to stay in TOR, and if that's the case, then he's waiting for the Marner negotiations to be over, after which he'll probably realize they can't give him the money he wants

Can mtl afford him still (cap space)?

How much is Gardiner asking for?


And where's all this cap space we were talking about not so long ago, MB spent it all on Chiarot?

No doubt they can, lots of guys who are counting against the cap at the moment won't be, or at least portions of their salaries won't be

Chiarot, Lehkonen and Armia.

Marner negotiations might go well into the season, does he want to wait that long?

Probably not. His agent is surely trying to create some kind of bidding war amongst interested teams

I see. But as Obie mentioned, at least there's money that's going to clear up soon.

And why is he so hell bent on staying in Toronto? He's the whipping boy whenever sh!t hits the fan!

He'll be soooooo much happier in Montreal....

Portions is a key word. You can't burry guys in the AHL as before.

How much will they save on Alzner or Weise? Not much is my guess.

Thornton resigned in SJ, 2 million

2-3 million... + Peca, Hudon... maybe even Folin, especially if they sign Gardiner... and then theres Thompson, Weal & Cousins

You need 13 forwards and 7 defensemen (at least). There will be plugs on this team.

Do you really? I mean the farm club is in Laval if anything happens it's a 30 min Metro ride.

Just carry slow old Thompson on the road.

The 4th line will most likely be plugs. I don't know if they can afford Gardiner with the Habs and Chiarot on the 3rd pair.

And if a rookie makes the team (or 2) you need to pay him.

He used to be a plug, so he can truly appreciate them­.
