Speaking of dirty, Cooke high-sticks Cammy in the mouth, draws blood, what's that you say no call? Yup, you are correct.

No offense buddy, but you're not even fucking close. He's not even the cheapest owner in the NHL.

He's spent to the cap in 6 of the last 9 years. How does that compare to, say the Islanders, or the Preds?

As much as I'm not a fan of Melnyk's penny pinching, he's nowhere near the cheapest in NA sports.

He spent money all those years and now all of a sudden he can't spend to keep Daniel Alfredsson in the fold? The Sens have been a winning team and he can't spend money? He's absolutely cheap that is the problem - the issue with the Isles and Preds is that the Isles have a shitty arena that they're lucky to get out of soon and the Preds don't have the cash flow - the Sens have the cash flow and now all of a sudden he can't spend any money, especially when the team had success the last few seasons? That has cheap written all over it - the Sens have more resources than a bunch of other teams and he simply doesn't spend

Yeah, Matt Cooke is totally reformed. What a POS. You gave out a high stick earlier, and just got one back princess.

So how many players are the Wild allowed to have on the ice? 7? 8? Come on zebras, wake up.

No, he's not overrated in my opinion, in fact, he's a very talented player, but he's also sneaky dirty and hasn't learned a thing from several bad hits he's dished out.

I've seen some Leaf fans go as far as saying he is the best player from the 09 draft. In my opinion, he is overrated, but to each their own. I just don't think he's as good as some say he is.

Bobby Ryan>Daniel Alfredsson, at this point in their careers. Think that's rather obvious.

Call me crazy, but Grapes sans Ron MacLean is actually pretty good.

Kadri's a very good player - the people who are calling for Kadri to be traded are dumb - Leafs would be worse off if they traded him - he's kind of like Evander Kane in the sense that he rolls to his own drum but he's a very good player who needs to be given every opportunity to succeed - he's been fantastic for the Leafs - but sometimes he doesn't use his head and that's why some people don't like him

That's not the debate - the debate is that Alfie was the leader of that team and the heart and soul - you take it away and the Sens don't have that - him not being there has really hurt them, they're too inconsistent and they don't know how to win without him there

lol at Paul Maclean - He referred to Kadri as "player 43" in the post game presser.
