Hell, I wanted Toews to lead Team Canada instead of Crosby.  What more, it wasn't because of my anti-Crosby bias but because he simply deserved it more.  Twice as many Cups!

I would take Toews over Crosby any time.. for the overall game...

That's worse than saying Spezza over Toews.

No.

Elliotte thinks Spezza will be traded:

AMAZING! lol

Elliotte is just looking at things from a practical perspective, much like we are.

It gets better

"...and there it is. The internet never fails to bring people like you guys around. Is it possible to discuss things without hurling insults at other posters? I don't know.

All I'll say is that Toews is an elite complementary player -- without Sharp, Hossa and Kane plying their trades on his wings he would not be a 70+ point centre. Spezza at his best is the kind of player that carries his team. Toews has never, and will never, put up a season like Spezza did in 11/12.

Give Spezza Sharp and Hossa as his linemates for a season and see what his +/- and point totals look like. The last time he had that quality of winger he averaged a pace of 104 points over 82 games."

Stop cluttering up our nice forums with that Cussing Dung nonsense from that other Cussing challenged brain Cussed Dung for brains mind Cussed site.

Just like I said:

You don't throw that out if you are the media... but this now brings the total to 3 guys... Elliotte, Stevenson, and Dregger.

And Bobby Mac said something about Spezza returning...I think all these MSM types are just speculating at this point.

Oh, I don't know, it's good to chuckle once in a while among all the doom and gloom.

That's why I posted this (since I posted the Bobby Mac one in the first place). What did Dreger and Stevenson say, though?

Either way, I am glad it's being talked about because at least we know that there are questions about his return.  If media is talking about it so are the Sens and Murray.  Like I said it would not surprise me if Spezza asked for a trade.

Agreed, it is an excellent sign.

Toronto media trying to cause issues in Ottawa, again? Maybe they should stick to what they know... the centre of the universe.

The only decent Toronto sportsperson is Bob MacKenzie. When I hear it from him... I will believe it.

Murray has gotten upset with Toronto media before and probably will again..

Looks like MacLean essentially admitting that they overestimated their young D at the start of the year.
