Comedy Platinum out of Toronto - "Canada's Team" quest for the Cup

[BGDave]

My dad just told me that he thinks they should sign Prust and send down Connor Brown.

I was pretty much speechless, as you can imagine.

What possible rationale did he have?

Again?!

Is your dad Prust's agent?

You don't ask questions when someone scares you like that BGDave, you just leave quickly.

Did he say that before? I remember I speculated myself on here that Prust would make the final roster (I like being right but I loved being wrong about that) but if I posted a positive opinion from my dad before it slipped my mind.

He's weird like that. He's never really thinking big picture either, just short-term "what/who do I wanna see on the ice now?" type thinking. I guess when you're 78 you don't think about the future so much anymore

Ah I think I see what happened, you were thinking of him saying that he'd send down Nylander, you made a crack about Prust after I mentioned that.

I did forget that it was me who brought up Prust last time.

To be fair, I asked what his opinion was on him, he sensed it and offered it lol. Maybe we should be listening to him

R.I.P. Auston Matthews' time on the third line:

#1 Best Leaf of all Time

I know Cups play a big part in it and that would disqualify everyone in the last 50 years (except guys who stuck around after the 67 Cup) but you're gonna have a hard time convincing me Keon was better than either Sittler or Sundin.

Also, Wendel at 15

Right now, I think Bergeron is the closest player out there with a comparable skill set to Keon. And Dave scored more than Patrice.

As the article correctly says, Keon would have owned the Selke much like Gainey did in his prime, and he did it with virtually no PIM. I mean, his PIMs were crazy low. But he was so damned good at checking, he was superbly effective defensively without getting a penalty.

And again, Keon was a topflight scorer in the pre-expansion, pre-Gretzky era.

I love all three of them, but in my mind the ranking would be Keon/Sittler/Sundin

I SAW HIM WALKING THE DOG THE OTHER DAY AND HE TOLD ME HE WAS OFFERED A SPOT ON THE LIST BUT TURNED IT DOWN. HE SHOULD BE TOP 7 ON THIS LIST!!!!

Eddie Shack is ranked way too low on the list.

The poster as well as the player rank quite high in my book.

In before Comeds says Damphousse is too low.

Any list that has Gary Freakin Leeman 15 spots higher then Eddie is a BS list, and isn't worthy to be used as Phil's hot dog wrapper.
