Maybe McLean would say the same thing... Sens needed that win last night... facing 3 tough opponents in the next 3 games.

He may have thought the same thing, but I doubt he would have said it. Paddock would have said it.

Regardless, f the laffs.

Damn.

Hahah...damn. I think everyone wondered why he did that.

Reimer goes tonight.

Leafs up 2-0, choke and lose 5-2.

I hope Carlyle has stocked up on stress tabs and antacids.

Well, to be fair, the Sens had two 2-goal leads and blew them both last night.

We were playing a rusty backup, this was Optimus Reim, who could have fetched a 1st round pick at the trade deadline last year

Wonder what he would have done with those 5 first round picks he could have gotten.

Jake Gardiner recalled... I guess that short conditioning stint did the job... heh heh. AHL All Star break is on.

Let the "trade Kessel" talks begin...

Also noticing a lot of hate towards Phaneuf. Leaf fans getting fed up with him. He's a LEAGUE leading -8.

cox is a turd. I think i hate him even more then the leafs themselves. he's everything that's wrong with hockey media. no matter how much i can laugh at what the media does in mtl he's always a step further. plain reactionary BS. i wish they'd take his job away from him. an embarrassment to journalism. ok, i'm done.

Heh. Leafs Nation seems to be on board with the idea though. Too early for that kind of talk. Maybe a move at the deadline or draft. I think they're starting to realize that Kessel is not a player that makes others around him better and you can't build around him. Which, of course, we all knew long time ago.

They probably should trade him, he has one more year left after this one and I really doubt he'll resign. Plus they need to get away from whatever Burke was doing.

f the laffs.

Mayve f the laffs should be a signature at this point

Yup, they absolutely should trade Kessle because he isn't coming back.

What's worse however, is leafs nation actually thinks that Edmonton's model is the way to go...top end forwards, no goaltending or defence. Then again, both teams are merely trying to make the playoffs....
