There are over 30 games left to play in the season. Anything's possible, of course. But that's not what you said. You said it was likely that the Bruins would get either the first or second pick overrall. But you have to remember that in the final 15 games or so, the Leafs will likely continue to improve, while other teams in the league's basement will likely want to tank the season. The Leafs will likely be picking up a few expensive players during the next couple of months (in order to help other teams free up some cap space in order for them to make a run in the playoffs) and the only players i see leaving the Leafs are the upcoming unrestricted free agents, Ponikarovski & Stajan. Maybe Stempniak also.

...

Continue to improve? When did they start? The way they're going, they're going to improve right into last place overall. I wonder if Burke will announce the Bruins first overall draft pick at next year's draft? :p

Even Saint Patrick didn't have the same type of rookie season as the players you've mentionned. So what's your point?

I think my point is obvious to anyone who reads my entire post. And since you only quoted part of it, you might have included the final bit of the sentence you did quote, which read "or even Andrew (ha ha) Raycroft". NOW maybe you see my point?

are you timing another ban because you feel a habs losing streak coming?


Yet here is what you had to say about Komi:

Komisarek is an ordinary defenceman & he's another free agent at the end of the season. I'm sure some team will overpay him.

As for Toronto, you forgot to mention Kubina, who in my books is as good as Kaberle. Anton Stralman is a top prospect & Jeff Finger is a solid #3 or 4 defenceman. In my books he's better than Komisarek.

That bum Kostitsyn & the lousy Komisarek are supposed to be benched for tomorrow's game against the Toronto Marlies.

Mike Komisarek??? Not only shouldn't he be on the starting lineup, but he shouldn't even be on the all-star team, PERIOD!!!


Komisarek will likely be gone to free agency....very overrated


Komi's rumoured to be heading to Boston. I hope it's true, since i don't want him with the Leafs.

coming from a red sox fan Tech, K knows what he is talking about :)

but no matter where the Leafs finish this season, im happy with Burke as GM, he has done alot more good than anything bad and it takes time to overcome JFJ and Cliff Fletchers boneheaded decisions.... time will tell all.......

Realists know this Tech, it's the disillusioned that don't.

Nope. I still don't get your point. Comparing a rookie goalie to the likes of Sawchuk & Esposito is asinine. Maybe i should ask your bum-buddy to explain it to me. :D

Once again, try to keep it clean. If you want to act like kids, the other hockey thread's for that kind of stuff.

Here you go Doc - just for you: YOUR post which started this whole thread. NOW do you understand...or are YOUR rules only for the rest of the world and not for you and your # 1 follower?

I don't have a bum-buddy. Maybe lggy can explain it to you. Hint: the point is that the Monster just isn't very good.

Oh, by the way, you again posted in the wrong thread - I was kind enough to quote your opening post above to show you why it's the wrong thread.

for being a red wings fan (hahahahahaahaha, i left out the bwah for you as i know you hate it and ur stress level is already way to high thanks to me :) ) why dont you post something on your "favorite" team on a regular basis instead of posting about the leafs so much in a negative way, your not fooling anyone but maybe one guy who knows less about hockey than you.. i am beginning to think your as big a habs bandwagoneer as he but not wanting ppl to know, but it is obvious, and if you say its just to put down the leafs cause you hate them, well that doesnt work either as all habs fans hate the leafs......

DUH!

Yes, he's a rookie - but he's not exactly having a rookie season like Sawchuk, Brodeur, Tony Esposito - or EVEN Andrew (ha ha) Raycroft.

"Very good"? Well perhaps - that is, if your definition of "very good" is 35th out of 46 in both goals against and save percentage (???!!!). I'll give him a pass on the other stat of 37th in wins, since he plays for the Leafs, so it's a guarantee that any goalie's win record will be poor.

And you're sure as hell right about his "durability" being a question mark! No one can argue with you on that!

I don't remember sayiing that, but if i did, i guess i've changed my mind about Mike K. What can i say? I was totally wrong! :D

Sentence 1: Yes, you often seem to change your mind. As for your memory problems, might I suggest not deleting so many of your posts? That way, when your memory falters, you can always research what you originally said.

Sentence 2: No comment (it would be the wrong thread!)

Don't you ever get tired of repeating the same old nonsense? I've said time and time again for years that I am a Wings fan and I am not a habs fan. If I DID root for the habs, I would not be at all ashamed to say it. There is no shame in being a fan of the habs or of any one of 28 other teams. There is ONLY shame about being a leafs fan. Haven't you noticed that you and your good friend Doc are the ONLY two leaf fans?
As for the Wings, there's not much to say other than that they have the best ownership by FAR in the NHL, the best GM, one of the best coaches, and several GREAT players including Datsyuk, Zetterberg and Lidstrom. They are, as I have posted several times, in a rebuilding mode and will not be serious Cup contenders for a few years (2? 3? maybe 4?), but they are rebuilding the RIGHT way, not like a certain team in Canada's largest city. Also, Detroit has a great and respected past - Howe, Lindsay, Abel, Sawchuk, Delvecchio, Yzerman, and countless others. And in case you didn't notice: 4 Cups in the last dozen years. Aw, but shit - last year they "only" made it to the final before losing to the Pens. Could Toronto (last APPEARANCE in a final in 67 - but hey, I guess you have to MAKE the playoffs before you can get to the final!) can only dream of this type of success. There - are you happy now that I wrote a little bit about the Wings?

Red Wings have the best GM and scouting team in the NHL.BY FAR!

...not some overrated goon-hockey advocate and coah who puts Orr,Mayers and Rosehill on the same line at the end of a 6-2 game and cheap shots a non-fighter all star defenceman,Green.:mad:

if its such nonsense, and your not hiding who you really like, then you would not respond to it..... the easiest thing to do is be a red wings fan... nice try, but you cant get rich by selling what people wont buy ;)

I gave up. No one bothered respecting my rules, so i simply threw my hands up in the air & decided to join the mob.

the point is that the Monster just isn't very good.

The Monster has been very good & would possibly be up for rookie-of-the-year if he had been able to play more. Mtl would trade Price for him anytime (and maybe even Halak) and the same goes with your other team, the Red Wings, who can't shut up Osgoode right now.
