Leaf Rumours

You're all nuts. Burke isn't even looking to deal Giguere. He will not go into the season with Gustavsson and a rookie backup. After last years cluster**** of goaltending he will retain his insurance. Zeke is completely and utterly out to lunch on this.

What a steal that would be for us. A total piece of crap goalie for a superstar who has had a few headaches. Burke cannot pull the trigger on this fast enough.

Giguere is awful. Short arms, short legs, no speed, ughh, Belfour he AIN'T.

Knowing Burke, he doesn't do it, not Marqis De Queensbury rules. Not giving enough away. Might insist on taking Kessel as well.

You have lead paint on your walls don't you?

People shouldn't be lining up to kiss zeke's ass yet. A "tweet" from some random reporter we've never heard of, who isn't even reporting this as a legitimate rumour herself doesn't make a Gagne for Giguere trade possible, or probable.

Especially when zeke is the owner of that twitter account.

Lead in a home? Are you daft? Must be the BP spill getting to ya? Guess your state is trashed for the next 20 huh? Where you going to squat now?
 
Must suck. My home away from home is trashed as well(Mexico) for a good 20 as well. Thank god I never bought a place there. Must be no bid right now.
 
All things Burke has said before about Kaberle. Good stuff about Kulemin though, glad he realizes the NHL is the best league. And good to hear Burke considers Kulemin an important piece.

Zeke and that Philly reporter, apparently.

at least I have company.
 
If Burke could get rid of Giguere for anything other than a Tim Hortons cup of toxic coffee I would be stunned. Why would anyone want a midget goalie who fluked out for a year and a half? Making ten times more money than he should?

Looking for someone to spin that one .

giguere's 6'1... and it's funny that you mentioned 'belfour he ain't,' -- now there's a midget goalie.

but i digress... fluked out for a year and a half?

2000-01 .911
2001-02 .920
2002-03 .920
2003-04 .914
2005-06 .911
2006-07 .918
2007-08 .922

teeds, that about as elite as you can get. not to mention the fact that he won the conn smythe in 02-03 and the cup in 06-07.

the guy has been a damn good goalie. now, there are obviously questions about whether he can return to that level or not, but the early returns (.916 save percentage through 16 games as a maple leaf) are very promising.
 
Most exciting junior hockey player at the world juniors I have ever seen. Mr. Afinigenov.
 
I don't like Giguere. At all. I feel better about Gustavson, who I feel is going to be AMAZING this year. Halak 2.0

:facepalm
 
Perhaps Leaf fans are constantly disappointed in the goaltending due to the expectations they place on them eh teeds?
