Friends of mine who are Habs fans are so excited about Parros, you'd think the Habs signed Crosby. They also think Briere is a dumb signing.
I don't get it but w/e.

That's because a lot of Habs fan have a Napoleon complex due to the team being so small for so long. A lot are more worried about beating up Toronto and Boston instead of beating them on the scoreboard.

lol If he was a good enforcer, he'd still be in FLA.
It's nice to have a heavy weight like Parros, but the guy won't even play every game.
Enforcer roles aren't as important when you're the 2nd worst team in the league.

As a Leafs fan, I'm worried about Parros pummeling whoever he fights on the Leafs. Maybe Orr can win a fight or two but I don't see anyone who will win over Parros consistently.
Yeah, it was parros that gave Orr his concussion.
No more hilarious show of Orr taking on 3 habs and winning
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
We'll, as long as you turn it off and pretend thats the ending
I think its because I bought too many games
Backlog: FF6, FF7, FF8, SMT 4, FE:A, P2:IS, Portal, Bastion, Dark Souls (almost done), Demon Souls, FF13-2
DAMMIT SMILEY, 3RD YEAR!!!!
Drop everything and finish the greatest game of all time.
Nah just let McLaren match up against Parros, they get into the box and then Orr has his way with their team.
Winning strategy right there.
And then we can send in one of our other goons to bully the rest of the Habs once Parros is in the box.

edit: Get out of my mind Samyy!
Interesting article from the Habs fan who did the obituary for the Sens for Puck Daddy, he's a big stats guy and did an article showing that the way Bergevin did the 2 year bridge contract with Subban will be cheaper then if he had just given him a big one prior to this season:

You Leaf fans seem to be forgetting about Ryan "crazy motherfucker" White
I'm assuming he'll bring a mace onto the ice next time

They are even more important. Need to entertain the fans somehow.

Just as important with all the kids we were icing. He's a good fighter, but he is most definitely not a "tough" one.

We will counter him with Jesse Blacker.
Will you be posting a lot of MY LIEGE
No but we'll be posting Krusty the clown pics when Alfie scores on the Sens.
Really? Not too many people can knock out Orr no problem, I'd call that tough. Regardless I only expect him to be playing against teams like Boston and Ottawa.

It's funny how the Leafs forced almost everyone in the division to get a goon (although maybe Boston started that trend).
The Seattle expansion talk is heating up.

As an enforcer he is soft. He toppled Buffalo's giant this season and is a good fighter, but don't expect an enforcer. He'll fight guys who he wants to and doesn't do a damn to intimidate the other side. His "fighting gentleman" routine extends on the ice. He doesn't hit, doesn't mouth off to their team and doesn't get in the face of anyone not his size. He can fight but he is a useless enforcer.

Speaking of which, did you finish Alan Wake?
Funny thing is, we are actually trying to trade Tootoo right now.
Its at the top of my list, of all those games im probably furthest in FF6 but I had to start over after I got my Vita because I don't think trades transfer
Truculence, belligerence etc.
Gotta beat the other team somehow!
I wouldn't really consider Tootoo an enforcer.

"Enforcers" need to be able to play or else they are pretty much useless.

I like his work but I don't really agree with this:
I really doubt the NHL will see 8.9% growth for the entire CBA. The rest is pretty good and makes sense, although I don't think the cap will hit $126.8M in 21-22 so his final numbers will be off.
Not if your name is Brandon Bollig and your coach is Joel Quenneville. Then you get to play a lot no matter how shitty you are.
David Clarkson.
His estimations are all in the conservative side and if there is expansion which seems guaranteed at this point then it will just go up even further.
I wish they were out of the game all together, they're a waste of space.

A salary cap of $126M is NFL territory. There is no way the NHL ever brings in anywhere near the amount of $$$ the NFL does, expansion or not.
Whatever he is smoking he needs to put it down and go outside.
Exactly, Parros wasn't brought over to play hockey. He's a useless goon getting paid to punch people in the face.
Mccarron has said a few times he wants to fight Lucic :lol and I'm pretty sure he's already bigger then him and he's been taking boxing lessons for a while now.
Go outside and smoke more of that shiiiiiiit.

Prust is definitely one of the guys who can do both. He can thank Torts for that.

Lucic picks his fights and Parros requires agreement from his opponent. A double negative on that happening.
This. There's no fucking way revenues are going to grow that fast.

So Gomez signed with the Panthers. Must think Barkov is a bust, needed more center depth.
Hahaha really? Dat veteran leadership.
I'm a little sad we didn't re-sign him but he didn't have much of a place here anymore. Our center depth, especially with Hertl coming over, is ridic.

Gomez? 4C then, slots Winchester in SA. Don't see cost but should be league min.
EDIT: 1 yr 900k.
EDIT: 1 yr 900k.
He's not a great 4C. But not good enough to be a 3C. Weird player.
He can do both, but based on the 50 or so games I watched him in this season, he's at his best when playing, not fighting. He's a sparkplug/agitator, but not a goon.

Gomez for 1 yr and less than a mil? Why not?
