Leaf Rumours

Dion Phaneuf talked about his injury today: "When you pull your pant leg up and you can see inside your leg, it’s not a very good feeling."

Its not that he plays feisty, he plays big. He can work the boards well, and the Leafs need that.

Fair enough, Setoguchi is a good board player and has very good balance (remind me of Domi - Alfie ... heh) and very good lower body strength.

And he does finishes his check all the times, I'll give him that too.

But he's still a generous 6'0 ... as good as his strength and skills may be, size still makes a difference in front of the net, in the corner, when you're throwing a check, and in the long run, when you're receiving a check.

Smallish player can play big for so long only.

Dion phaneuf says he was on the operating table for 2 and a half hours....peter regin's skate narrowly missed a major artery.

Just heard from #Leafs captain Dion Phaneuf. He had a full-body allergic reaction to the antibiotics in the days after surgery. Better now.

He's short, but he's not small. Even if he isn't 6'0 he is over 200 pounds. He's not like Bozak, Versteeg and Kadri.

Lashoff is playing well in the AHL. Gunnarson is getting punished, Phaneuf is coming back etc......

Setoguchi likes the boards, this team needs Setoguchi, way more than Trashbin.

Aulie is a LOT more than even Burke anticipated. Jamal Myers, say hello to Keith. And please, say GOODBYE to Trashbin.

Also, THIS is not all Burke is working on. Say goodbye unfortunately to Kadri it appears. You gotta GIVE to GET.

Can anyone vouch as to the last time Teeds was right about one of his "inside" rumours?
 
I have long accepted that if you are right most of the time, turkeys always like to point out the one or two occurances where you were wrong.

Kaberle, if he and his agent agree, Kadri, Schenn are the names. Schenn is tenderly, reluctantly being discussed. Same for Kadri, but the name is BIG.

And Burke OVERPAYS.
 
Forget my call when the US dolllar was 1.58 Canadian about how MLSE was going to be a monstrous CASH PIG when the bucks are at par in two years(was exact) and forget all my other predictions.

How about my call about Rynnas being the best goalie we had BEFORE the season started.

You see, losers and turkeys never give winners credit. Doesn't matter, I still love y'all.

And Jays? I hope YOU are right. I don't want to trade Kadri or Schenn. Kaberle I am NOW okay with. If it gives us the piece I am hearing.

But no Schenn or Kadri please.
 
I wouldn't give Calgary Kadri and Schenn.

Our best defensemen and potentially our best offensive player in a few years?

Nah.
