13 points in last 15 games. I think he's back.

Edit: Make that 14 points in 15 games.

flyingelvii {l Wrote}:Next 5 games are very winnable (@ Fla, @ TB, Atl, Phi, NYR). Would be nice to finally get some momentum going for the season.

Edit: And Go Tuukka. Chucky's overall play < Daniel's overall play. Rask > Thomas. Kovy is greater than all. And contract talks have come to a stall. Wheels, parts + Leafs 1st for Kovy and I would Jizz In My Pants. Hell, switch Wheels and Krejci and still the same reaction. Not to mention the sheer orgasm that will by on Savvy's face.

Wayyy too many jizz references in this post.

You would be happy with trading the Leafs' pick, the sacred and omnipotent top 5 pick obtained when Kessel was traded, in part of a package that would net you 3 months of Kovalchuk before he walks in free agency? Seems like a reallyyy high price for a rental

buconvict {l Wrote}:Trading a top 5 pick for a 3 month rental is foolish, especially if you also trade Blake Wheeler.

Anyone else surprised to see Patrice make Team Canada over Savard?

They probably wouldn't include Wheels if they included the Leafs' pick. That'd be more likely if it was for the B's pick. Again, it's probably a pipe dream but they'd have to give something up and Sobotka, Marchand, Hamill, et al plus the Leafs pick probably wouldn't be enough so they'd have to give up something of value.

Regarding Bergeron, Canada has a lot of very good centers and Bergy's has shown pretty good chemistry with Crosby on his wing in the World Juniors. Plus he's easily been the best Bruin this year and is one of the best defensive forwards in the NHL.

flyingelvii {l Wrote}:At being a defensive forward, yes. Luckily, Team USA, unlike the Toronto Maple Leafs, has enough good sized guys and decent two-way players that he will be able to focus on what he does best, score goals. USA doesn't have the skill to match with Canada, Russia, or other top-end teams, so they'll bang bodies. Basically, it's a Brian Burke team, shocking as he selected the team. Of course Ron Wilson is the coach so who knows what the hell the team is going to do. Your agenda is comical, though. The Olympics don't enforce a salary cap so it is a lot easier to create fantasy teams with the best players possible and Kessel is probably the second best American goal scorer behind Parise, so he's going to be on the team.

So Kessel's inclusion to Team USA was okay because they have a lot of two-way players, but he had to be traded away from the Bruins because he wasn't a two-way player like the rest of the team?

Thanks for clearing that up. It all makes sense now.

Please re-read the bolded part. You seem to have missed that in driving your agenda off the road and into a ditch.

If your main point was about the cap, then perhaps you shouldn't have made it after saying that Kessel would fit into team USA because they're defensive minded but didn't fit into the Bruins because they're defensive minded.

A well-framed argument as always.
