    2019 Draft

    If so - then so be it. As irony would have it - Podkolzin's stock has dropped in Button's recent draft list...Was 3 - now 9

    2019 Draft

    Button's latest rankings apparently suffers from schizophrenia...Players are going up/down/all over the place https://www.tsn.ca/craig-s-list-caufield-scores-his-way-into-top-5-1.1316942 I hope Stevie stays away from that Russian kid...Got a bad feeling he'll want to stay home longer than what we'd expect...

    I believe it's over for the Bruins...Blues will hoist the Cup on home ice. As for the Leafs - yeah it's gonna be some time before they win it all...Dubas has his work cut out for him this summer.

    Loving to see some fresh blood to have a chance to hoist the Cup. Also having a great time reading how the Bruin fans over at HF Boards feel as though they're getting the shaft.

    If it doesn't involve Avtomat Kalashnikova then I'm not interested.

    2019 Draft

    We need a mock draft of the highest rated posters here at LGW...I'm certain I'd fall somewhere mid-pack of the 3rd round.

    I'm just looking forward to all the milfs in the audience.

    If we draft Cozens in a few weeks - do we nickname him 'Cooze'?

    Poll: Datsyuk on the team at 41?

    Which sorta concerns me about Podkolzin...

    I hope that's the case...Good thing we don't have 'Dollar Bill' Dubas for a GM

    Karlsson on the move?

    That might be, but how will they fit him under the cap?

    Funny thing tho'bout former Leafs Dmen...Over the years quite a few actually go on, and have good careers.
  15. Yes - Willy Boy...I figure with Toronto being such a large city - Trouba's father could probably mingle in without being noticed...Just wear a plaid shirt, a fake moustache, talk aboot maple syrup, Canadian bacon,and say 'eh' a lot, and I'm certain nobody would notice. If this is the case - Stevie Y better lay the smack down early so Jackie doesn't get stoopid. Watch TJ empty the Ilitch family bank accounts...Make his old man proud!
  16. IIRC - it was something fraud related, and yeah - not allowed in Canada. Not sure if either team would be interested, but Trouba for Nylander might work for both clubs...Wonder if Stevie Y has any interest - when taking into account Trouba's history of signing contracts (or lack there of), and his father coming off as a real dirtbag - I could see Stevie taking a pass on this.

    2019 Draft

    So where does that put Podkolzin? Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there rumors swirling of him staying over there, and playing in the KHL for a few seasons where he can make a lot more $$$ right away?
  18. Just like what he had done with Drouin - Stevie Y manages the situation like a pro...He'll do what he thinks is best for the TEAM in the long run, and appears to have no favorites in the locker room.

    News From Around the NHL *Mod warning page 75*

    Guys like Big Buff, HJarlmalsson, Campbell, Sharp, Versteeg, Panarin (not on a Cup winner), Saad (prodigal son), and even Shaw all were solid players...Just think if there wasn't a cap how many more Cups they might've won? Toronto won't have this depth once Marner gets his $$$.

    Chicago's depth on their Cup teams were vastly superior to what Toronto could ever hope to have...Toronto won't win the Cup for a long time..

  22. As CRL pointed out that when taking Trouba's negotiations/contracts into account - he apparently does not want to stay in Winnipeg...My only concern is how much more 'mileage' will get added to his odometer when he becomes a UFA? Karlsson 2 years ago was every GMs wet dream...Not so much anymore, but I'm certain 2, or 3 will offer him exactly what he wants...Then in a few years they'll regret that signing.

    WCF: San Jose Sharks vs. St Louis Blues

    Silly goose...Twenty something hipsters are glued to their iphones, and don't talk/mingle with strangers.

    WCF: San Jose Sharks vs. St Louis Blues

    But it's a great movie...1 of these years I'll make my way out to the east coast...Been wanting to visit Boston, Philly, NY, and DC. Would love to grab a few brews in a dive bar in 'Southie' just to mingle with the locals...Would seem like a good time.
