I respect that frank. I like a classic mustard, ketchup and relish, or loaded with everything on the cart.

Without pulled pork I like it with mustard, a lot of dijon mustard, a bit of ketchup, and diced onion.

Thanks hilly. But I thought my post where I said I PP through my Bozak was better

Yeah, he’s not worth that package.

I by no means want the Leafs to trade Rielly, but if a team offers that, they gotta think about it.

Makes the Leafs a worse team, but still.

Rielly already has an ‘A’. They should take away Marner’s ‘A’ because he shouldn’t have gotten one in the first place.

Tavares: C
Matthews: A
Rielly: A

Oh yeah

Or maybe 17🤔

Holy (frank) that’s bad.

Loljegren isn’t an NHL caliber defenseman. Sandin is not ready for 20+ mins a night. Leafs desperately need to lock up Rielly. But since Dubas got taken to the woodshed with the core 4 already, he’ll be looking to not be made a fool of.

need to give the guy some playing time for real before jumping down that rabbit hole.
They will have Dermott, Sandin and Liljegren on the 3rd pairing me think due to their cap constraint at the moment .
I think they do get a burly dman but closer to the trade dealine

Psychology, sociology, and anthropology is all science. Scientists failed to understand why people aren’t taking the vaccine. So really it is scientists fault.

And when was Margaret Mead put in charge of getting people to take the vaccine? The US is going down the toilet. This is just one more example of mass lobotomies conducted by Fox

Damian Warner is a monster. His decathlon long jump would have given him the bronze in the full long full long jump. There are some amazing track performances going on in Tokyo.

I don't mean to be rude, but this article doesn't actually make any sense...

In years past the leafs were already using LTIR space, and therefore could maximize their usage of that by taking on Clarksons contract.

The real reason we made that deal was to become a team spending up to the cap before marner signed, as there was risk of him holding out. With Horton and Clarkson, we had enough salary to convert to LTIR once he signed to fit him in (at the maximum threshold (but thats a bigger explanation)

The leafs have about 1.2 million in cap space if they demote Engvall and other bubble players.

Adding Kesslers salary would put us over the cap, until he's put on LTIR, which would then revert back to 1.2 million.

The bigger issue is that when in LTIR you don't accrue cap space for unspent money, so this is actually the worst possible suggestion you can make.

If we did this, we would have 1.2 million In cap space at the trade deadline (about 400k since 2/3 of the season is done). If we ignore your suggestion, the 1.2 million becomes 3.6, as we would have banked the unspent money. (Again if you want this explained it will be a longer post)

TLDR - this idea HURTS the leafs and should never be considered

I love the Decathlon. Always one of my favourite things to watch.

Think they also said his 100M time would've been good enough to qualify for the finals. They all posted better times in the finals, but he'd still be there, which is insanely impressive.

I will absolutely never understand how Equestrian continues to be in the Olympics. But I guess they gotta cater to the rich people who aren't athletes.

Equestrian in the olympics is probably the worst. Professional golfers going for gold is also a joke.
