Atta boy StA, you're now more Canadian than Dr. Youth.

[Smitty-48]

Freddie Vezina standing on his head, staring Bobby Lou down for the shutout, man o' man, Anaheim must be kicking themselves right about now.

[StCapps]

Traded the wrong goalie, that's gotta be a kick in nuts.

[Smitty-48]

He's starting to make a believer out of me, he's far from perfect, none the less, he dropped weight and got leaner and faster in the summer, and he has definitely taken it to another level this year.

[Smitty-48]

Finding the Max Domi to the Leafs rumours intriguing, if they could get Arizona to sell low, that's a potentially dynamic longer term Bozak replacement scenario.

[Smitty-48]

Isles tonight, Johnny T and Barzal looking for payback, if it's the Loafs tonight, could be a trap game, but if the Leafs show up, could be exciting, altho with these two teams exciting prolly amounts to a track meet.

[Smitty-48]

According to Bobby Mac, sweet Lou is prolly just low balling Detroit on Glendening, we'll take him if the price is right, but otherwise just stick with the Komarov-Moore-Kapanen line as is, and so far Kenny Holland is saying "meh".

On the Karlsson front, word is the price comes way down if you're willing to take Bobby Ryan's contract back with him, which would be an angle for the Leafs to get in, but only if they think they make some use of Bobby Ryan, which, bit of a crap shoot, that.

[Smitty-48]

Grabner trade to somebody seems imminent, Rangers holding him out of the game tonight with deals on the table, reportedly.

[Fife]

I've had a long day, Smits. Rather than sipping on Ethiopian grind and shitposting on the MHF, I've been engaged in ersatz combat (with IRL fatties holding pistols just off stage) with some bad actors today.

I'm fucking pooped, and in need of some decent entertainment to go down with my take-n-bake food and Lagavulin.

Can you just tell me that the Preds are going to mash the piss out of the filthy street-shitters from the Bay this evening?
