Leaf Rumours

Burke has rigid boundaries. Most likely Frantisek, or Thomas' father went beyond them. Not saying it is right, but Burke probably doesn't want players who have their fathers doing the talking for them.

What about Kaberle's actions? his words? his loyalty to this franchise? his hometown discounts? the fact that he has more talent and hockey sense in his pinky toe than Komisarek and Lebda combined? Teeds, I like the idea of being strong and fast but there's no reason why Kaberle can't be our Nieds, Scotty was a superior player, no doubt, but Kaberle is arguably a top 10 defencemen who is being pushed out because Burke blew his load on a supposedly truculent and belligerent American, this version of Komi is actually worse than Finger. I can't believe people are buying this shit from Burke and no one is calling him on it. Instead, we have idiots on TSN who are saying Kaberle has been dogging it this year? WTF
 
We've heard the Stamkos/Taveras rumours, anyone think that Parise might get an offer sheet by other teams looking to add a superstar?
 
we have to come out and hit and be chippy with the habs... The Isle did that last night, and you could see them really not liking that teams now feel they have to play them tough. Armstrong is highly needed in this game.
 
I have changed my opinion on Armstrong. This guy is a very effective team player. I think the team feeds off him a LOT.
 
I've been very pleasantly surprised with Colby. I expected him to be a guy who ran around a lot, threw the occasional big hit, and had stone hands. He actually has some decent hands and has a pretty good head for the game, especially with the puck. He's always making smart plays when he has it.
 
So have we come to an agreement that what he brings is possibly worth 3 million. A lot of people were pissed because they thought we over paid for what he brings to the table
 
It doesn't bother me at all that he's making 3 mil. He almost singlehandedly makes our third line effective. He might be slightly overpaid still, but I really did not realize he was such a smart hockey player. Guess I need to watch a few games the leafs aren't playing in. He doesn't even hit all the regularly and the opposition still absolutely hates him.

I think if we ever make it back to the playoffs, that's when we'll really start to appreciate him.
 
Colby has blurred vision, sounds scary, but they said only a week.

Habs fans are reeeeeeeeeeeling right now, Boston beat the shit out of them and they are terrified that they are too small. You should hear the callers on 990, some were nearly in tears.

The game plan should be to knock the hell out of them. They aren't gonna like Aulie.
 
I like Versteeg, he's been very good. I was too harsh on him at the beginning of the year.

That said, Phony Pony was bang on. He can be very frustrating at times.

lol
this has been the word on the habs for 10+ years
 
The habs are going to be angry not onlythey got they're ass'es served to them physically, and that they gave up 8 goals (very unsual for the habs to be a defensive nightmare). Watch for them to play a tightened up game, and then use their speed to launch quick counter attacks. We need to play their game with a twist and throw it back on them boomerang style. What we need to do is stand them up physically in the neutral zone by putting them on their ass and/or forcing them into a turnover (aullie, schenn, komiserak, sjostrom, rosehill, kulemin etc can call do this), then go on a counter attack of our own. If we can do this, we have a good shot at winning.
