    Guess you don't wanna hear that Mats is finally starting to play to his potential here in Lotus land.

    I loooooooove Mats. (I need a smiley with a heart)

    But even Mats couldn't help with the year that the Leafs are having. They need defence. They have no problem scoring, the problem lies in keeping the other team from scoring.

    The only time that I really miss Mats on the ice is in a shoot out.

    This is true. The funny thing is, that on paper, these guys aren't and shouldn't be this bad...at least not cellar-dwelling 35 points behind conference leading Boston. I rarely say tis kinda thing but it really has to be in the coaching. There's alot of talent on this team with the exception of Antropov...about whom Kex is the only one around here I can get to believe is the reincarnation of Grape Ape without the purple.

    Big goofy bastard.

    C'mon. Sooner or later everyone's gonna have to start realizing next year ain't gonna be the year...

    Taken from Toronto Star, October 1st, 2017

    With another season fast approaching, Leafs fans will place high expectations on 17-year vet, Nik Antropov.
    "Ja, I really think this is the year I can score maybe 30 goals, for sure, you know", predicted the big Russian centre.

    "Your first year is about adjusting to the speed of the game, and the North American style. Your second year maybe you're a bit more confident and try to build on what you've learned. Years 3 through 6 are all about the contracts, man. Short-term, 1-2 year deals max. By 29 you're a free agent but after 11-12 years in the league, you gotta start to earn your ice time. Years 13 and 14 were hard with the injuries, but I really felt my game starting to come back in the 2nd half of 2015, and of course last year was just a re-building year for the team, so everyone's numbers were down. But with the kids we have here this year, I'm really excited about the opportunity."

    Interim GM Cliff Fletcher, back for his 4th stint with the team said re-signing Antropov to a 3 year deal was a no brainer. "Who are you? Did you take my slippers?"

    Antropov will centre a line with Wendel Clarke Jr, and re-patriated Leafs forward, Yanic Perreault, who joins the team for an NHL-record, 7th time.

    Well, with Torts taking over in NY, the Avery to the Rangers story is now on life support. Those of us with TSN here in Canada watched Tortorella talk all year how bad this guy was, how he didn't deserve a chance in hockey, how he would never allow a guy like that on his team, and how much he despised Sean Avery. I can't believe that wouldn't have come up in the conversations with Sather. One of two things will happen - Avery gets burried in the minors, or Tortorella gets exposed for not only being the biggest fluke winner of the Stanley Cup ever, but also goes down as the biggest BS tough-guy TV personality in hockey history.

    Either way.

    Bad move, Sather, bad move.

    Every now and then th biggest rumour prove to be true, and this is one I didn't think would happen. Not cause I don't like Avery (love what he brings) but because of the money.

    If he's not going be a turd-disturber like before then he's not going to be any different than 20 other guys that make 1/4 as much.

    The Rangers needed to do something though, and they were certainly better with him in the lineup.

    Let's see how Torts uses him. When do the Rangers play Calgary next?

    I agree and I suspect there'll be some assistant somewhere who has the singular task of teaching Sean to be a complete bastage on the ice while maintaining the profile of a shadow of it.

    The real issue, though, is not even with Sean Avery himself. It's with the sage wisdom of he who called it first and how that prescient knowledge will affect your own MMA sigbetting status.

    Your posts will ring of knowledge and truth with your new "Heart Bisping" sig complete with manly pink flowers...

    I HATE Cheetos. When I want cheese curls, I generally buy the store brand because I can't get Jax down here.

    I think all the praise from the local press here about Marty's sudden turn around went to his head because, suddenly, his game has shot right back into the weeds again.

    Fat boy is shakin' in his boots at the prospect of a stick-waving superpest just outside the crease disturbing his delicate concentration come playoff time.
