Don't even recognize the place any more.

Curious, in the long article, not one name of an arrested person/suspect. Is that typical for Canadian media reporting these days?

I don't think that's typical, it could be that CBC is trying to be very careful in making sure they have all the facts before naming names.

Anyone who has read or seen "Molly's Game" knows how this will probably go. Won't matter that it isn't the US, someone is going to have some pressure applied.

If Dubas seriously wanted to do this he’s seriously lost.


don’t like the draft pick but otherwise OK with it.

At $1M, that’s only $225K or so above League min. No serious cap consequences.

Term? You should have some energy guys on the 4th line. Not going to put a real prospect on the 4th and give them 8 mins a game. Someone has to be on the 4th line for the next 3 years. Why not a guy who wants to be here?

Vet. Good room guy I hear. Why not ?

Draft Day!!!!!!

Leafs have 11 picks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

/fake enthusiasm

9 of the 11 picks are in the 4th round or later. If they get 1 decent NHL'er out of those 9, I will be shocked. I wonder if Ottawa or Florida are interested in a Ricky Williams-esque trade?

The draft pick is the thing - if it was like a fifth okay. Second rounder For a fourth like meat bag? I’m good.

I mean, it does say that there are multiple sources who are completely anonymous and unidentified in any way. Get the pitchforks polished I guess :wink:

If you're a sports journalist who is completely making some shit up these days it seems all you have to do to get people talking about it is make it "believable".
