Flyers-Gaf, is Zolnierczyk any good? The name rings a bell.


Thank you, Cake Boss



So he sucks... Sweet! Good job, Bob!

Beauchmin played for the Leafs at one point...

Kipper sure as fuck wouldn't be

 

[cube444]

And some Flyer fans thought the idea of trading Couturier for him was ridiculous :lol he's playing his way onto the Sochi team right now.


Yep.

I remember driving by it last fall when I was doing some work in the area. Spent a lot of time at that Stone Rd mall and Starbuck's too. :lol

Some cute girls in Guelph due to the university.

That has to be bullshit.

TSN so thirsty for the Leafs to make a big deal.

Leafs can have Stalberg back.

Last thought from @DarrenDreger: understanding is Kiprusoff would be interested by Toronto, and open to a deal. Family not an impediment.

I'm there all the time, wouldn't surprise me if we unknowingly walked past each other......Logan Couture is from here and has been down at some of the bars I go to as well.

NHL power rankings, pretty surprised to see Habs at #2 and the Ducks at #11

It was an honor sharing Top 5 with you, Red_Man...

I have hope.

They probably have, Solo might just still be unconscious.

What the hell? I don't understand the logic. Maybe he'd come here as a veteran back-up? I wouldn't mind that too much, assuming he comes really cheap.

 

[Cake Boss]

Are you sure its not Pittsburgh there Arron Ward.

This pleases me greatly.

 

[lamaroo]

Choose now, Gardiner or Rielly?

 

[Smiley90]

Kipper won't show, this is all a ruse to bring down Luongo's trade value.

BELIEVE

 

[Cake Boss]

Why does Toronto even want an over the hill goalie on the decline? For the playoffs? what would that say to Reimer if you cant even trust the guy in his first playoff series. Easily kills the kids confidence.

GO CANES GO!!!!!!!!

I'd be okay with it if Kiprusoff's contract ended this year. The Leafs are way under the cap. You could bring him in as a veteran backup, someone that theoretically could mentor Reimer. But the two-year contract is what kills my enthusiasm for any Toronto trade that involves Kiprusoff.

Sweep incoming, sorry about that.

Giving away any sort of asset is what bothers me about such a trade.

 

[Razorskin]

Why not both?

 

[Red_Man]

Why not both?

:lol :lol

 

[Kave_Man]

I BELIEVE IN REIMER AND SCRIVENS!

Don't do this Nonis...don't!

 

[Tabris]

I say we go after Thomas Vanek who may be available, if not, Ryane Clowe. Mike Gillis seems to think the Sedins can get Clowe scoring again.

Yeah Nonis, I'd say you should try for Robesto again or hope the Loafs are not on Miller's don't send me there list.

You literally have nothing to offer Buffalo for Vanek aside from your Sedin sisters, but keep dreaming.

Don't do this Nonis...don't!

for a third rounder?

This is quite immature. I would expect better from someone that lives in Montreal.

Kipper to the Toronto makes absolutely no sense.
- Kipper has been very bad this year. Like, historically bad.
- Kipper's 3.52 GAA ranks 44 out of 46 (only Brian Elliott and Scott Clemmensen are worse)
- Kipper's 0.873 save percentage ranks 44 out of 46 (only Brian Elliott and Scott Clemmensen are worse)
- Kipper has a $5.8M cap hit next year
- Reimer has played well (he's top 15 in save percentage)

For lulz, please let a trade happen!

The bolded is the clincher. Please don't let this happen.

I don't live in Montreal. It's not surprising your reading comprehension is at the same level as your posting.

 

[MetatronM]

Oh, it's not Ash who is the scratch, it's JT Miller.

Nope, Gardenvision lied, it's Asham after all.

Can't complain about scoring 19 seconds in, but it's so typical to give it back 55 seconds later.

 

[Merguson]

Don't forget teams can retain salaries and/or cap hits.

EDIT: On Kipper, basically just to give the Leafs some experience and mentor for Reimer. They obviously don't see Scrivens as having a future in Toronto.

Depends on what we give up.

 

[KernelPanic]

Kipper's save % might have something to do with the team in front of him ?

 

[Tabris]

I don't live in Montreal. It's not surprising your reading comprehension is at the same level as your posting.

How would I have read where you lived? But anyways, still quite immature.

 

[ZeroGravity]

If he doesn't work out the Leafs can just buy him out. It's not like money is a problem.

 

[CrankyJay]

Everyone is available if the price is right.

 

[lupinko]

Maybe, or he's just old and is done.

And in general Cujo and Eddie were not washed up when they got to Toronto, the Leafs were contending in the playoffs all the time with both.

Giguere was done when he got to Toronto, that's a better example.

 

[Red_Man]

Because it's on this page, but I imagine all you do is post and then read to see how many replies you get from your baits anyways.

 

[Montresor]

I didn't think of this, hmmmm. I do think that the fervor over his bad statistics is greatly exaggerated. I agree with KernelPanic in thinking his statistics are more a product of his entire team than just his overall skill level. I just don't like the thought of him taking up cap space next year. Kiprusoff for only one year as a veteran mentor to Reimer doesn't seem so bad.

 

[Kave_Man]

Another team is talking to Calgary about Kipper as well.

Go other team!
