Hey...if spitting it out makes it any easier then do whatcha gotta do
I love Russians!
Well, my Russian lover left me for a rich Canuck season holder...well, that's not exactly true, I kicked her out, she was too clingy...
Hey! What the hell does this have to do with the Laughs?
Oh yeah, I think they will lose tonight and on Wednesday against the Islanders.
That is all.
I love every move Jim Benning makes

I suppose it's the uncanny similarity between cock-swallowing hoes and cock-gobbling Leaf Blowers

If the Leafs don't win a couple of rounds this year, they will soon. What a great young team they are. The future is very bright. Second youngest NHL team and look how good they are.
Don't forget that 26 year old journeyman, played all of 30 games in the league (and 18 of those this season) Ben Scrivens has comparable numbers to Reimer. A defensive system can sure can make a goalie look good - ask Ilya Bryzgalov, Mike Smith or Ben Bishop.
This Leaf love is getting ridiculous - no wonder nobody likes Leaf fans, not a word fro 10 years and as soon as they are 5th in the shitty eastern conference they spam every internet site out there.
Just to point out, Reimer in his rookie season put up very similar stats in Wilson's horrific "Run N' Gun" system. So you can't just say this is on the system. Besides, Carlyle doesn't impliment a defensive trap system like Tippett does in Phoenix. It's just better than Ron Wilson's, which was the worst in the league.
And calling Scrivens a "Journeyman" is not fair. The Leafs are his only NHL organization he's played for, and he was the top AHL goalie last season. He's older because he was undrafted and went the U.S college route. He's got nice upside.
Your undrafted college back-up just let in a weak one against a veteran team that will win more than 2 rounds in the playoffs...The Caps look awfully tough...

Sorry Charlie, 3 goals...go post on a Make Belief board or hang yourself in your closet, it's all good.
What kind of Terronoh fan would post on a Canuck board? One of us?

Ok...I take it back about them being able to win a round. They look pathetic against a team that is actually playing half decent

Fuck the Leafs.
They shouldn't even be discussed other than to mock their ineptitude!

Soooooo they didn't get their asses handed to them by a real playoff contender 5-1?!
And we shouldn't celebrate that by taunting my next door neighbour die-hard Laughfan when I rolled out that trash cans this morning?
And Meds isn't a closet fan?
Um...OK

Not quite the ringing endorsement by their hockey man Dave Poulin but there is no denying it, they are on the right road (just not this year as so many claim).

I think by 'make some noise' he means they will win a game or two in the playoffs in the first round and that will be a great experience builder. We essentially did the same thing in the early nineties with a young team.

Yeah see your point, however mocking their closet fans would count as discussion as per mocking their ineptness, I would say...
