Jonesi

Agreed.. I have no idea the purpose behind the statements. I didn't hear it live was wondering if maybe he got caught up in the moment or something. I see nothing strategical with the comments made..

dom

And

I was actually watching battle of the titans on TSN.

dom

In another interview today he stood by those statements and again reiterated that he would not be re-signed.

Also said something about "he tells it like it is" and tries to be as honest as possible. Hope he wasn't expecting much in a trade.

Jonesi

Maybe it's some reverse psychology shit.. Motivate him before he gets traded?



Why not just say they're in discussions or it's being worked on.. Or it's being talked about amongst the organization. It's less then a month before the trade deadline. He could've held the comments back another few weeks..

dom

Or maybe he knows he ain't worth much with or without making those comments. I'd be happy with a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Couldn't even watch the Leaf game tonight as I refuse to pay $6 a month for Leafs TV.

Yumcha

^ I read that Chicago is a possibility for Antropov to land...

dom

Ok, I'll settle for Kane for Antropov straight up.

Did I hear that right? That was the first time all season the B's have lost a game by more than 2 goals?

BstonBruin

Yeah I know, they were up 2-1 going into the third and playing pretty well too. I can't believe they were booing Thornton, why?

Moog-Type-S

Somebody better tell the Kings that it's not about winning.

I hate being a rebuild team on the playoff bubble.

Part of me says throw in the towel and build for a dominant next year....the other part of me says try for that 7 or 8 spot.

Deano is gonna have some tough decisions to make at the deadline.

Yumcha

I'm more that I sat Nabokov thinking the game would be back and forth.

Yumcha

And Kane to the Leafs? Sure...if Toronto wants to give up their 1st rounder for the next 10 years and empty their farm.



Kane >>>>> anyone on the Leafs roster

BstonBruin

I would have done the same thing if I were you. Disappointed the Bruins only played a 40 minute game...but it was exciting non the less

I think this actually is the case.

The book is out on Antropov. He's a big body with good hands, but soft as a loaf of bread. He plays on the perimeter and doesn't use his size to go to the net. That being said, he could be effective when put in the right situation.

herbalist

Wow, no shit.

Jonesi

A high, in a otherwise depressing season so far.. Good game tonight.

Yumcha

No small feat defeating the Sharks...

I haven't seen the pens play that tight since last season, great game

Rounder

I'm going to two pens games next week. Monday at isles and thursday vs habs!

I'll be at the Habs game too

Jonesi

Make it 3..


Maybe I'll drag Berner and we can have a mini AZ meet..

dom

Shootout wins don't count.

Yumcha

^ True...so, my Hawks beating the Sharks recently >>> than Pens beating Sharks yesterday.

dom

Here's hoping the Pens lay a proper beating on the Leafs tomorrow night. We're closing in on 28th.

No one is catching the Isles or Atlanta.

Yumcha

You think your Leafs' can win the Lotto pick...?

Jonesi

I hope the Pens lose in OT..

BstonBruin

How do these picks sound to you guys...

Hawks at Blues - Hawks -165
Wings at Blue Jackets - Wings -165
Bruins at Devils - Bruins -105

i wanna kno htf the bruins lost to san jose the other day... thats blasphemy!

Moog-Type-S

That's the sad truth.

dom

If they get into the bottom 3 I don't see why not.

And if GB knows what's good for him the Leafs get #1.

There's been some talk in the Toronto media recently about how Tavares should (not will) refuse to go to the Island if drafted. That franchise has nothing going for it and I doubt it will get better unless they move.

dom

I hope you meant Leafs lose in OT? You guys need the points.

Did you see that 3rd period? Apparently not

BstonBruin

herbalist

WTF is going on?

SG81

iTrader: (1)

ya, i don't think it's fair. he killed me last week using this method.


i think we should cap the add/ drops

herbalist

^ Yeah. I'm not a fan of this tactic. And the fact that he's adding a guy and then dropping him the next day makes it even more obvious of what's going on.

BstonBruin

Evader you missed out on a SO and a big night by Marty Turco

Jonesi

I was going to bump this thread and ask the same question..

BstonBruin

Its a bit shifty...we shouldn't 'need' to limit add/drops, its just common courtesy not to use that strategy
