But Vasy wins it for them in the SO anyway.

Joey Anderson scores again, fucking up Hawk tank

 

[Artnes]

Another one that got away

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Fucking hilarious.

Dubie's best depth moves would've been no depth moves.

 

[Artnes]

Kerfoot scoring 30 next year whereever he ends up

 

[LeafOfFaith]

That'd be cool, since he'll be a Leaf next year.

Joey Anderson scores again, fucking up Hawk tank

I always liked him a lot on the Leafs. Really perplexing why he never played. I don't get it. I pretty much stole that take from Edna though.

 

[Preston]

We can say "hey why didn't he do that in Toronto" all we want but the truth is, his points per 60 rate was comparable to Kerfoot's with the Leafs this year, way way way better than ZARs, and slightly better than Lafferty's with the Hawks. Granted, he will not keep up this pace with the Hawks with a 30% s% and 12% on-ice S%. He is only playing 10min/game and scoring at a 41point pace with Chicago which obviously isn't sustainable. But the floor scenario for him was always that he's as good as Lafferty with some upside to be better.

It's not gonna break the roster and there is no need to cry about it but it's just another example of them giving bizarre preferential treatment to inferior vets for little reason with no data to back it up. The small mistakes continue to pile up for this organization.

 

[JackBurton]

Yep. He simply wasn't given a chance, even when he showed signs of playing strong hockey. He fits the bill in terms of style for being a good 4th liner.
Leafs need to stop signing too many vets at training camp and pretending it's a "Competition". It's not. The vets get it no matter what. Use our own talent. We have it in the organization. We got Anderson 2 1/2 years ago and at that point he had played in the NHL already for the Devils. Where is his chance?

 

[Cojo]

We'll never develop our own talent if we consistently keep them on the marlies

 

[Habsy]

Progress stoppers

Every team has them

 

[Volcanologist]

I'm not sure Lafferty is supposed to be better than Anderson...but he has to be grittier/tougher/more physical. That was the theme of the deadline with all players added. guess we'll see here. I don't rate him much so far.

 

[MindzEye]

For the 4.5 million we're going to be paying him next year, he better

? Who are you talking about here?

 

[BG]

Assume he's talking about Kerfoot.

 

[Volcanologist]

I sure hope not

 

[Preston]

I think ME is on meth and responded to Artnes with about 7 posts in between.

 

[CH1]

it's not a 7 post delay if you have a bunch of people on ignore

 

[CH1]

BTW, I think zeke blocked me because I don't see his posts anymore

 

[hockeylover]

I think Zeke went PhonyPony.

I’m not really worried about kerfoot coming back, if that comment was even serious.
