At least Sandin has played NHL games.

Barrie played a bunch before he got here too. Point is that management is committed to the guy. They think he good and he’s cheap.

6 KHL teams play on North America sized rinks and 11 play on Finnish which are a hybrid.

my argument was that the goalies in the KHL, for the most part, would be equivalent to a Game 7 Freddie Andersen. If they were in the NHL.

You know, goals from behind the icing line, or weak shots down the wing

Simmonds is exactly what the leafs need need. sign him to a cheap spezza like deal and maybe you can squeeze in jumbo on a one year too. Can you say second round of playoffs.

I can't franking believe my money is going to pay to keep the Panthers afloat, when this is what Panthers fans can get:

https://www.groupon.com/d...ls/florida-panthers-03-03

What You'll Get
Click above for a $55 all-inclusive ticket for the Panthers vs the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday, March 3, 2010, at 7:30 p.m. ($85 value). Buy here for Saturday, March 20, 2010, at 7 p.m. vs. the Buffalo Sabres.

Originally invented by bored henchmen looking to pass the time at Superman's secret Antarctic lair, hockey has since overtaken polo and unicycle jousting as America's favored pastime. Hop on the bandwagon with today’s Groupon: for $55, you get one ticket to your choice of two Panthers games at the team's home rink, the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise. From the links above, pick either Wednesday, March 3, at 7:30 p.m. vs. the Philadelphia Flyers or Saturday, March 20, at 7 p.m. vs. the Buffalo Sabres. Your Groupon is only good on the night of the game you purchase, so make sure to buy from the correct link.

Seats will be in the Coach's Club Level (sections 428–430), which includes access to the Coach's Club, an $85 total value. You'll find out the exact location of your seat on game day. Purchasing multiple tickets in the same order will guarantee seats together; tickets purchased across separate orders will not. Inside the Coach's Club, you'll receive all the buffet-style bites you can eat and all the beer, wine, coffee, and soft drinks you can drink. This upscale experience is nearly 8,000 square feet of comfortable, lounge-style seating and attentive service. If you start feeling too far removed from the action, head back to your stadium seats at any time to get right back in the puck-flying mix.

Hockey is like the magnificent mutt of the sporting world. You get the suspense of watching an object swish through a net (like in basketball or soccer), the thrill of rambunctious brawls (boxing), the elegance of ice skating, and the utter brutality of golf, all combined in one action-packed event. Treat your entire family, favorite group of hockey hooligans, or squeamish dentist to a night of hard-hitting ice-capades.

$55 gets you a ticket, buffet and unlimited beer - on a franking Saturday night game!!!

Frank my franking Leafs life.

What in the actual Jesus H. Ballard Smythe...if I was a Panthers fan, I'd be dead from diet and alcohol-related illness.

I think if Rielly could implement the slap shot when on a PP, that would be really helpful. Barrie was a threat to shoot, Rielly isn't.. Hopefully, he can
- PatC80


rielly is great at manning the blue line by himself and making smart fast decisions with the puck.

i don't think his lack of a big slap shot his hurt us on the 1-3-1 setup we use on the pp.

Markstrom wants a NMC apparently and Van won’t give him it...

Going to assume it’s for the expansion draft. Leafs should jump all over that.

Barries rights for Markstroms rights

Smart of Van to not give him the no move clause, they risk losing Demko.

It depends though, if Markstrom wants a lot of $$, Leafs can't afford him

I don't see Simmonds signing a contract that puts him near league minimum. If he's willing to, awesome - otherwise, pass.

Has to be. All significant FA's are going to demand NMC, or $$ in lieu, or sign 1 yr deals.

Gotta think he'll be outside the Leafs budget.

I said the same thing.
I dont see him signing for under 1.5m.
He's not into Spezza territory yet.

Lehner is rumoured to be signing 5x5....

Any goalie the Leafs sign won’t cost more than Freddy
