unkn0wnwarrior Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I miss Mogilny... That guy was a favourite of mine. Him, Gilmour and Kaberle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Same. I wish I'd been able to watch him play with his russian line: Him, sergei federov, and Pavel Bure. How badass is that?!

unkn0wnwarrior Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 That would be awesome to see. Also, I'm getting sick of seeing New York in the opponent's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Yeah I don't know why they're playing NY so much. I could understand if they were at least in the same division.... Versteeg is back for tonight, which is good at least. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Not good enough. Shut out again, 2-0 again. 36 shots and not 1 found the back of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Yup. They need to put people in the front of the net more (but once again that goes back to them having no big centres.) Even if they called up Khadri, he's not a big guy... I found NY didn't really play a good game, both of their goals came off lucky breaks and the leafs dominated offensively...but they just can't finish.

Faux Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 leafs really need better forwards. getting shut out like that two in a row is insane. yeah tim thomas is a good goalie but not scoring against the rangers is a joke :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I didn't see this game, either, but we haven't had anybody who would really go to the front consistently in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 At least somebody like Sundin could hold his own in front of the net if he wanted to...I like bozak but he's too small.

Faux Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 imagine if leafs picked up byfuglien instead of versteeg :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Yeah, I like versteeg but byfuglien would have been better. In late June I heard a rumour they almost got Patrick Sharp but that never materialized. The thrashers put byfuglien on defence eh?

unkn0wnwarrior Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 He could, but he preferred behind the net, along the boards. As for Byfuglien vs Versteeg, I would have loved to get Byfuglien more than Versteeg. More than Sharp, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obfuscator Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Leafs already back down to 9th where they belong :thumbsup:sadface Apparently they brought Caputi up and put him first line just so he could stand in front of the net...

unkn0wnwarrior Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I guess MacArthur took a Schenn slapper in the gut. He was down for a while. Poor guy... but at least it wasn't Phaneuf. As for Caputi, we'll see how good he is at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I'm curious to see what happens once boston and jersey get over their injury troubles, they basically both have to make a trade...

obfuscator Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 They'd want draft picks probably. They couldn't afford kaberle. Game tonight was lame (didn't see much though). Phaneuf got booed as he left the ice injured, toronto fans are such [bleep]s sometimes. It's unreasonable to expect them to come from nowhere and be a cup team.

Burke's trades haven't been very helpful. It's hard for the fans (I'm not one btw) to see Burke trade away draft picks for players when they're trying to rebuild, so I guess it's misleading. Also, Oilers just scored 3 straight to tie with the Canucks :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pick ended up being a player with some promise who may score 20 goals this year. Kessel is 40 goal scorer practically guaranteed, and I beleive if he has the right line-mates he can push 50. It's not like he's trading draft picks for 35 year old veterans. The entire team is very young and won't be competitive for another year or two, yet already we've seen a significant improvement over last year (even if the past few games haven't been great).

Tell that to the rest of the fans :razz:, btw, tonights game on TSN was pretty good. Leafs almost won it, but a phantom crosschecking call on Lebda ruined it. One thing I don't get about Ron Wilson is why would he play John Mitchell, he sucks balls. Too bad leafs lost, i thought they deserved to win.

obfuscator Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 John Mitchell sucks balls? He was crucial to Kaberle's goal with great maneuvering in the OZ. He's better than Zygomanis at any rate... But yeah, leafs played well. I had a feeling we wouldn't do well in the shootout though, but at least we got a good amount of goals from some not so regular producers.

Faux Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 that penalty shot in the stars pens game was so sexy :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 There was a cross check, so it wasn't really a phantom call. But it was pretty weak. And yeah... once I saw it was going to the shootout, I knew we lost. And Mitchell is actually a pretty good player. Not for top two lines, but a good third liner.
