theminister Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 We have the pieces for a good PP IMO. I honestly believe that Newell Brown is the issue in that regard. But if you are thinking that way maybe Mark Streit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Dane Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 @DarrenDreger: Tor and Van had additional discussions re: Luongo trade. Sounds like Canucks still want more than Leafs are willing to give. #tradecentre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger18s Deadline day should be highlighted by Leafs interest and perhaps a decision between Kipper and Luongo. 3rd option...do nothing.#tradecentre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Agreed. Brown, for whatever reason, refuses to adjust his game plan even mid-contest. That's the sign of weak coaching IMHO. A coach needs to be a man for all seasons and is required to always look for another tool in his arsenal. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't but you can't refuse to alter your strategy. In war, for a field commander, that gets armies slaughtered. I've been pretty vocal that Streit is the guy I want. International, big game experience and is solid on both sides of the puck. I consider his on-ice vision to be an A+. He isn't the most skilled player out there but he is one of the savviest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seguin Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Seriously Dreger? There have been big moves, and still moves to come, but the highlight of the trade deadline is the Leafs showing interest in things and possibly doing nothing? Toronto Sports Network media at it again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Sounds like Gillis could be looking for a winger now instead of a center. Kulemin and Gardiner? I still don't want any players from the Leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apples Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I really hope the Nucks doesnt trade with the Leafs, I don't want any one on their roster. Much rather trade with the Panthers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I think he's saying deadline day tomorrow will be highlighted by this goalie situation because most other major moves were already made today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanev Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well Rogers & Bell co-own the Leafs so we shouldn't be surprised about the media being biased, since they have the same employers as the Leafs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 One thing a guy has gotta remember is Toronto and area is like half of Canada population wise. If I ran TSN I would probably do the same. I have no faith in this deal, Toronto doesn't need Luongo and we don't need Toronto. It's for ratings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 And Schneider cramping up and letting Frolik deek him out of his jockstrap also was a key component for the Hawks making it to Game 7. Not a single media outlet besides the ones in maybe Chicago thought the Hawks deserved to win Game 6. Schneider was the only one to blame. Embarrassing.

theminister Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I worry about how a defenseman like streit would hold up in a much tougher conference. Garrison, Ballard, Wideman, were kinda overvalued cause of the minutes they logged on week teams in a week division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I think the biggest problem with the PP is that Kesler hasn't been around to carry the puck through the N-zone with speed. Even the threat of it forces teams to back off.......right now, other teams know that there is no one to carry the puck with speed and confidence......easy to defend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
