I’d even include Old Man Tavares in a don’t be ashamed of this top 6. Father Time has affected his game, but he’s adjusted it to still be pretty effective for the time being.

100% agreed.

I just really don't like his pajama wearing ass (even moreso than most other Leaves) so omitted him.

What don’t you like about him? Just the pajamas?

Don’t we have a thread on out of town scores?

I went to talk about how much I hate the leaves and the commentators watching the game.

No mention here of 22 y/o RSD Tristan Luneau yet.

Ducks signed him this week to a 6x7.2 milly.

14 career NHL games.

Only 1 last year.

10G 41P in the A last year.

Crazy. If I were Leo Carlsson I would not be happy that this is the way they are building a team around me.

Looking at Luneau’s junior and AHL numbers, the Ducks are rolling a dice that is not too dissimilar to the one we are rolling on Buium…..

Difference is Buium has a couple handfuls more NHL games, however our dice is being thrown on a longer term bet worth $2M more per season.

I see what you're cooking Mëds.

To add to the discussion.....

Buium had a full seasons worth of games, half a season in our uni, NHL playoff experience (albeit minimal) was a 12 o/a pick (the Duck was 53 o/a) & is universally lauded by scouts as a potential #1 as well as called the best D man in US college hockey during his time @ Denver by others...

Sounds like Simon Edvinsson now wants out of Detroit.

Yuck, what a mess in the Motor City.

Even crazier is that who Vancouver really wanted back in a Auit Hughes trade and they refused to include him.
