NHL January 2013 |OT| - "Double-B to Double-M" The Milbury Leafs Era Begins NOW

I like this change.

The draft lottery selection process will change with all 14 teams fully eligible for the first overall pick. The weighting system for each team may remain, but four-spot move restriction will be eliminated.

Now the leafs can barely miss the playoffs as usual with that late season push and still have a chance at 1st pick!!

It ended last year, I believe.

Rielly will be at camp. I doubt he makes it.

Phaneuf, Gunnarsson, Gardiner, Liles, Holzer, Ranger, Kostka, Franson?, komisarek

Really wouldn't be surprised if Ranger makes the team.
With Gardener injured, I think he'll be signed to an NHL contract asap. He's way too good for the AHL.

Apparently free agency is still July 1st? That's shit, need to change that.

I'm so excited to see our new defense under Larry Robinson.

Vlasic-Burns
Stuart- Boyle
Murray-Demers
Braun

Potentially really, really fucking great.

Glad the NHL Network is all over this story. And by that, I mean showing the old Junior hockey games.

God it sucks being an American hockey fan sometimes. ESPN has zero coverage except a 2 minute segment to laugh at hockey. NBC Sports is showing some fucking hunting show. You would think the NHL Network would step up and provide SOMETHING.

I love how much Leafs fans have started to praise and defend Luongo over the last several months.

Canucks inventory:

Return for Luongo? Or does he stay with the team?
Kesler injured. Severity could possibly be exaggerated
Edler back, but not 100% (needs to be resigned)
No 3rd line center (Lapierre and Malhotra could slot in)
Dutch league sensation Dale Weise with breakout season?
Training camp probables/possibles: Kassian, Jensen, Schroeder, Lack... probably not Corrado

Sharks problems:
1. We old as hell
2. No third line
3. Patrick Marleau
4. If the playoffs are made by us the black third jerseys will probably be worn which is bullshit. Teal motherfuckers.

At least we have potential third line superstar TOMMY WINGELS progressing nicely.

I would bang a hot farmer!
You're not Canadian, you don't understand how conflicting this day is.
What are you talking about? What better way to celebrate Canada Day than a bunch of NHL players signing new contracts? Want to really ruin Canada Day? Have the CBA expire on June 30th.
 
I think all of these clauses are great. I always hated the really long contracts, especially the ones where the last few seasons were for peanuts e.g. Brad Richards.

Yeah, I even would have wished that the salary variance should have been lower and the the contract years shorter.

Being out all day drinking and trying to keep up with signings on your phone / tv is ten kinds of shitty for everyone.
 
That moment when you find out the lockout is over, and then you remember that your team signed Jordan Staal and Alex Semin in the off season. Can't wait.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.

D is pretty much full, but I'd like to see Ranger make the team, this season or next.

I really hope Staal works out for you guys, he was my favorite. Still kind of pissed about it actually.

You're doing it wrong. We need Druin on Gally's wing in a couple of years.

Yeah,I know it wont be this year but with a short season like this,who knows what can happen...a team gets a winning streak and they will be hard to catch up...
 

Anyone else watching TSN see that Datsyuk goal? Hot damn that was dirty. I love that he always comes up with goals I have NEVER seen before.

Posted it in the other thread but yes, Datsyuk is still king, and he is our king, all ours!!!!

I'm so excited to see our new defense under Larry Robinson.

Well at least Stuart will score more goals against your own team than against opposing teams.
 
Subban is not signed on yet? What the hell Montreal? I thought he was locked up. What if in some weird turn of events, leafs signed him. Wouldn't that be hilarious?
