I don't think Berger knows anything.

 

[Yawnier]

Exactly. It is all Yawnier's fault

Muahahwhahwa

 

[DopeyFish]

The only thing berger's birdies are saying is he still isn't allowed at MLSE press conferences

 

[MultiJhonny]

I don't think Berger knows anything.

I don't know who to follow for Toronto. Give me names.


But honestly I bet it's the truth

Just as God intended.

 

[Samyy]

As Friday gets closer I'm getting more and more okay with the idea of signing Stamkos.
Think about how insufferable Leaf fans everywhere would be
It would be amazing
Also need salty Buffalo reporter hot takes

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Muahahwhahwa

wtf is that sid from sportsnet?

 

[Simon Belmont]

Honestly there's no real insiders for Toronto anymore. Lou has everyone tight lipped these days. The usual reputable folks are about as good as it gets.

 

[Line_HTX]

I think this was mentioned before, but who's doing the World Cup broadcast again?

 

[zroid]

rumour has it Lucic and the Oilers have reached an agreement

 

[MultiJhonny]

Ah okay. But still this wouldn't surprise me if these are the two teams that are the ones way ahead of the pack for Stamkos

Can't go wrong with Bob McKenzie for all things, really. Even Darren Dreger.

Same here, but I really wouldn't be upset if he ended up somewhere else. I don't know.

 

[DopeyFish]

The leafs are under the cone of silence.

No one talks. No one leaks.

So unless stamkos camp says something, you won't know anything until it happens or doesn't

 

[Simon Belmont]

They wouldn't even say which RFA's they'd qualified.

 

[Quick]

Tweet from Duthie this morning saying 12-15 teams have already spoken to Stamkos, so that's a pretty wide selection already.

Fucking Benning though still. :lol

Watch Vancouver not end up being one of them :lol

James Mirtle and Chris Johnston are both really good.

But the leafs have been on total lockdown since they hired Lou almost a year ago.

 

[Line_HTX]

M'kay... I'm assuming nothing is happening until Free Agency period begins.

Is there a period where everyone goes on vacation and there's literally no news to talk about afterwards? It's kind of like that right now for the NFL until the end of July when training camp begins.

 

[DopeyFish]

Lucic signing with Oilers apparently lol

That'll be basically after free agency day (Friday) up until the World Cup in September.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Rogers in Canada, ESPN in the US.

 

[DopeyFish]

Going to be a terribly boring offseason

I'm already not excited

 

[Fata1moose]

I'd go with them over Vancouver.

Also, despite my prediction on the dumb free agent signings doc, Stamkos is totally signing with the Leafs.

 

[Line_HTX]

Rogers in Canada, ESPN in the US.

Oh right, I don't know why that slipped my mind.

Yay old ESPN theme and possibly ABC theme?

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Lucic gets free meal at opulent Vancouver restaurant.

Signs with Oilers the next day.

Well played.

 

[Foggy]

:lol

I'm hoping most GMs are seeing through this bluff. Ownership will shit their pants if they have to buy anyone out to match an offer sheet.

Cap-fucked teams are ripe for offersheating, hence Saad suddenly getting traded last year.

 

[DopeyFish]

The only way I see the Leafs signing Stamkos is if he does a 1 year contract for less with the expectation of extending for more.

I don't think they'd nuke their cap with as many bad contracts they have remaining.

unless someone owes lou some favours and he can dump one of michalek, laich, bernier, lupul, bozak or greening.

 

[calder]

Good call, that's a really underrated salt demographic.

 

[Kave_Man]

I see Howard Berger has crawled out of his trash can once more.

You can't even track the MLSE jet anymore like that one guy did during the whole Babcock thing.

Wait, is the 7mil in cap space we have factoring in that we'll have Horton on LTIR? Can't we exceed the cap by 10% in the offseason and then as soon as the season rolls around throw Horton on LTIR to become compliant?

Okay cool! Thanks

I was not aware this Berger man was so hated

Yeah I already follow Bob. Great dude.

Ron Wilson's greatest legacy as a Leaf coach was dishing out some salt to Berger on TV, which presumably led to him getting banned from MLSE press conferences.

Thanks, I try to make this place a house free of sin.

Dubbed dropping the law.

Y'all better start accepting Jesus in your hearts and ridding yourself of this anime.

I read this in Don's voice.

Help.

Don would never say Y'all. That's something clasless, track-suit-wearing Americans say.

 

[MultiJhonny]

So I want to write this lady a follow up thank you after the phone interview but what the hell do I say for it?

I have never had a phone interview but was thinking how she may appreciate this even after a phone interview... But I have no clue what to say

 

[zroid]

Good call, that's a really underrated salt demographic.

My eyes were opened wide in the wake of Babcock-gate and Leafs Tank 2016™

I have never had a phone interview but was thinking how she may appreciate this even after a phone interview... But I have no clue what to say

some ideas:
- thanks for your time
- reiterate why you wanna work there
- confirm one of your strengths
- discuss one of the highlights of the interview

nice and short is probably best.

I sadly had to restart my collection since my Macbook screen broke

I guess Demers is an Oiler too?
