Leaf Rumours

Just thought I'd drop in and say hi......haven't been on the board much lately......getting married and having kids doesn't give me much free time.....that said.......things are certainly going to get interesting over the next couple of days.

Cheers!!!
 
Potulny is a pretty interesting player too. He blocked a shit load of shots last year, and has decent offensive tools.
 
Man, I am so sick of reading Sens bullshit in a Leafs thread.

Mods, isn't this something you should be regulating already? It always shits up an otherwise interesting discussion around here, so why don't we just create a thread titled "Sens Bullshit" and require that all Sens related bullshit go there?

I've never even VISITED the Sens forum. I just don't get this fascination with coming over here all the time and telling us our team is bad or we're not going to do x, y, z. Seriously, enough already.

Lombardi woulndt be a bad signing. Torres would be a wise choice, sure the guy doesnt have much tools, but he's got size (which is what Burke is looking for). Armstrong should have been a leaf ages ago, this guy is one of the better hitters in the game. Martin, only shld be signed if Kabs gets traded. A big **** NO to signing Hamuis, the guy is another version of Beauch and is looking for $5M/year. Madden would be an ok signing, but other options should be explored first. Maholtra, would make a legit 3rd liner. Higgens, the guy isnt that good, not worth waisting a dime on.

I'm just going to say something LoF: it is virtually impossible on this board to make everyone happy. Tons of people were complaining in the other Kessel thread, so I shut it down. What happens? Player bumps another Kessel thread from months ago and the discussion starts up again. People get mad if stuff are closed. People get mad if stuff isn't closed. People get mad if some people take a forced vacation for a couple of days. People get mad if some people aren't banned permanently. It's impossible to balance on this forum.
 
I don't think any Leaf posters would care if Sens comments regularly get moved to a specially dedicated Sens thread. I think they'd be happy about it. And at the end of the day, all that matters here is if the Leaf posters are happy.
 
You've got a thankless job, without a doubt......but it does seem some things get shut down without anyone complaining about it......and then something like Sens fans hijacking threads, which people have been complaining about for ages......nothing gets done about.


I suspect that's where his frustration comes from....




*edit: what he said*
 
He's not asking you to shut down the thread or anything.. Just to remove the sens bullshit. I agree completly with LOF. I mean this is a leafs forum thread and the topic was nice and interesting. Until we get told we suck and always will and our team won't do any of the rumoured stuff just because were the Leafs. If Sens or Habs fans want to come here and actually talk about leafs rumours from the leafs side thats one thing. THough coming on a leafs rumour thread and turning it into this is what the sens are going to do is another.

We could have a Sens sticky thread for all most people would care, I surmise......as long as we had ONE place for all the Sens-Leafs discussions, instead of each and every thread being hijacked.
 
I think a big factor is that there is really little to no one for them to talk to on the Sens board so that have to come here to have any sort of a conversation. And being the rivals that we are things always end up confrontational - over issues unrelated to the thread.
 
Yes the thread hijacking is redicolous... last time I checked sens fans had a forum to talk about the sens right? so why come on a ****ing leaf board and talk about them? If people want to talk about the leafs great. If not go to your own board and start a thread. the hijacking is annoying as hell and pointless since there's no nead for it.
 
You know what, I really think a straight up Leafs-Sens thread might not be a bad idea.....because honestly, having Sens arguments getting in the way of discussions about other teams moves, aside from the Leafs and Sens.......would get annoying as f*ck too.
 
Don't we already have a Leafs-Sens-Habs thread? I could sticky it if you guys would like? That way it would be in plain view and there would be a prime, appropriate place for opponents to talk.

Edit: bumped and stickied the thread for your guys. Take it as you will. *shrugs*
