I tihnk getting into the post season is of great success. But has a little work to do! but i think an extension would only give his club convidence in him, and in the team!

ANd your a leafs fan, NO WONDER WHY YOU HATE GREAT PLAYERS, NEVER HAD ONE THERE IN TORONTO BEFORE!
Posted Thursday October 02, 2008, About: Cherry: Ovechkin won't be as good
Watch this year, better numbers, adn further in the playoffs!

Cant match with Ovechkin. CROSBY WHO?????
Posted Thursday October 02, 2008, About: Avs not interested in Khabibulin
Agreed with Tribe,

Put a proper team in front of Khabby, and you have a better stat year last year than it really shows! And c'mon, seriously if they are willing to risk 5.25 million, for a goalie who only HAD ON GOOD YEAR, theodore, than you wo uld almost assume that they would try this one out! Khabby has been above average for more than one year. And we do have some salary room left, so it wouldnt be completly out of the question! Maybe liek others said, jsut waiting till he enter the re entry waivers, to get him cheaper. ANd if they do, and they make the cup finals or go further in the playoffs, he would resign.

All I can say, is as a Blue Jay fan, when we have went 15 seasons without a hope in hell to get into the playoffs, i have not B I T C H E D about the division, in fact, the yankees should be happier they didnt make the playoffs in our division adn not another one! BY FAR WE HAVE THE MOST DIFFICULT DIVISION IN BASEBALL! But just liek a typical yankee, excuses come out when they under achieve! who would of thought that 253mil wouldnt by you a ring or two?

LETS GO TWINS!
Posted Friday September 12, 2008, About: Ricciardi losing power in Toronto
I am agreeign to Disagree!

Your right in some sense yes, however, look what he also did with what he had. He fed and raised a team of pitchers, Adam Lind, Travis Snider, adn the list goes on! however he has made some bad mistakes. But if it wasnt for him, we wouldnt be were we are at today!

GO JAYS!!!!!
OCTOBER HERE WE COME
Posted Friday August 29, 2008, About: Forsberg out until Christmas
The Best part is, Your all pissed cause at some point in his career he has ended the slight hopes your NHL teams had in or at the playoffs!

When He is healthy, he is the one of the MOST dominate guys around! I have stuck up for him before, when he was about to sign with Colorado at the trade deadline, adn i will do it again. I would much rather have him on Colorado than face him in the playoffs!

Even when he is not 100% he is still more dominate than most second or first line centermans out there! a very few can protect the puck, nor put the intense presence he puts when he steps onto the ice surface!

I say sign him, to a small contract, dont let him play till he is ready and able to play! He wont stay out there that long!
Posted Thursday August 28, 2008, About: Sakic's coming back to Avs
BIOHAZARD- Yeah the league is getting younger, your right! however, he is still above average, adn can put more points on the board than most and i mean 75-80 percent of the NHLERS right now! Sakic is still, adn will still be a dominating force this year adn next if he decides to play!

Remember the only reason why he was entertaining the idea of retirement! not cause he wasnt physically able, he just wanted to make sure his heart was in it 100%!

THIS IS WHAT WE NEEDED! 2001 coming back all over again!

LETS GO BOYS!!!!!
Posted Friday August 15, 2008, About: Russian league to draft NHL players
I just got whapped. I dont know what to say. I am speechless. I have no speech.

The KHL luring of NHL players is what the NHL needs. COMPETITION!!

I say Alexei Kovalev is next. This is his last year on his contract. I cant wait. The guy is the anti-bruin.
bostongm | 08/15/08, 10:16


Competition is right, however did we not just lose a year of hockey because the owners thought they were payign their players to much! With the KHL prices for talented young players is goign to go through the roof! Unless there is some sort of aggreement, good bye NHL!

cmh_phx | 08/14/08, 10:35 AM


HAHAHAHAHAH

this is a good one! Atleast one team every year does this!

Apparently JP RICCIARDI may be looking to switch leagues! he can screw the leafs over with over paid injury prone players like he has with the Blue Jays!

so true!

Except the Wolski Signing as well! But other than that, we have been pretty stupid this off season!
Posted Monday July 14, 2008, About: Four players join DL, alter trade market
Blue Jays need to get rid of the trash and focus on next year. Something ain't quite right there.
Tell it like it is | 07/11/08, 10:43 PM


Well, i believe we have pretty much did our spring clean up already, which should of been done a few years ago! and that was getting rid of gibbons! Was not a fan of his play. Very inconsistant in the offence part of it all!

I say lets see how AJ pans out, even if we do lose him, we have that hefty 11.25 mil a year to spare on another 3rd or 2nd string starter! he is coming around! lets try and get another 20 solid starts out of him. Give our club a chance to win! we cant lose anything really. No one will give us anything valuable for him!
Posted Monday July 14, 2008, About: Cubs asking about shortstop Greene
And the greedy jsut get greedier!

This move would of killed them i think,

your right you have 3 very talents SS's and to try and juggle one more, with a contract of that size, you would hope he was a .298 hitter with a little more gap power than 11 doubles!
Posted Saturday July 12, 2008, About: NHL to fight Radulov deal
Nixonfire to say that the Europeans give nothing back to the NHL is pure BS and not worthy arguing about. Individuals may act that way but to classify an entire continents playing population as complaining and selfish only illuminates your own ignorance.

TO CLARIFY SINCE YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE NOT REALLY UNDERSTOO THE COMMENT, I WAS NOT SAYIGN THAT THE EUROPEAN NATIONS AS A WHOLE. MORE SO JUST THE PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE! THEY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT CRITICS OF THE GAME! A COMPLETE MOCHARY OF THE RULES ADN ITS MEMBERS! THEY DO NOTHING BUT WINE, DIRTY DIRTY PLAYERS, AND YET DISRESPECT WHAT HAS BEEN OFFERED TO THEM FOR A CAREER! SO BEFORE YOU START ILLUMINATING MY IGNORANNCE AS YOU PUT IT, USE COMMEN SENSE AND RELATE THE COMMENTS TO THE SUBJECT!
Posted Saturday July 12, 2008, About: Sakic delays retirement decision
Agree,
Your Right, Avs C has been and Always will be Burnaby JOE. Just liek Yzermen is the wings C for lifE!

THere is no real Depth in the forward lines, we have some young guns who are upcomers, but no one that is really ready to take a team to the playoffs and further!

Unfortunately we are sitting ducks which ever way he chooses, but for him i would give the time! either way, he will be with the team!
Posted Saturday July 12, 2008, About: NHL to fight Radulov deal
I agree,

The sad thing is, it is seeming that the Europeans are the ones complaining and always wanting mroe out of the NHL, adn yet they give nothing back to it! Radulov pretty much just **** E D slapped the NHL and preds in the face! Why let him back, let him go make his money the greedy P R I C K!

Unfortunatly for the jays, it seems pitching is coming pretty cheap these days around the league!

So dont get too worried even if something was to happen!

The best thing Bettman can do is hand out some fines!


The best thing Bettman could do is walk off The Chrysler Building

HHAHAHAH
that is a good plan, we can push hiim!
Posted Friday July 11, 2008, About: Ducks accuse Oilers of tampering
From Sportsnet:
"There is no question in our mind or defiance about the league's authority here," Burke said in the statement first read to Ducks beat writers on a conference call and then posted on the NHL club's website. "We accept their authority to stop this and we intend to stop it."

"But in our own damn good time and only when I've had the last word" ...... BB

Okay I made that last line up, but he might just as well have said it.

Follow through with your threat and fine this man, Bettman, or lose any shred of credibility you have. Oh no, wait, you don't have any. Not with the fans, and not with Burke either, evidently


SOO AGREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best thing Bettman can do is hand out some fines!

Now the bad part is, Burke is nothing but a chump! He came into a team that already had a good core of guys, granted he brought in a couple players yes! but Anaheim was already built! anyways, When Lowe finally defends himself and his organization, thats when Bettman steps in! C'mon bettman get real!

Gettign rid of Bettman- PRICELESS!!!!

You don't think AJ would be an upgrade over Adam Eaton?

Nothing against AJ, but as a Jay fan, it has been ffew too many years of watching him underachieve! With what we are paying this guy, he should have a better record! Granted, the run support is not there, we are only hitting a .218 with runners in scoring. But at the same time, when you need a big win, you cant really count on this guy! I would like to get something for now, not in the future! Been way too many years of REBUILDING!

ANYONE REMEMBER RICCARDIS 5 YEAR PLAN! LMFAO
