Leafs @ Oilers - Oct. 29th, 9:00pm - SN, SN 590

is it too soon to say MotM = Kessel?

 

[ZBBM]

Jesus.  Christ.

 

[CaptainObvious]

Pretty slick!

 

[Beowulf]

That Kessel is so underpaid

 

[Beowulf]

He had the wind knocked out of him

Thankfully that seems to be all it was. Looked a lot worse at first glance.

It just struck me -- if Kadri did get seriously injured, we would be so screwed.  Is Tim Connolly still available?

If not I have Travis Green's # on JFJ's old speeddialer.

 

[bustaheims]

We won the Kessel trade. True story.

If anyone, anywhere still questions that, they're crazy.

 

[Arn]

So what's that 7 goals in 4 games on about 13 shots?

Bust!

 

[CaptainObvious]

What's his 82 game pace now?

 

[Jalili]

Just tuned in.

Kessel has such incredibly good hands, and he's also tied for 3rd in points now.

 

[Bender]

Man that was almost an impossible shot.

 

[Bullfrog]

Carlyle has to keep Kadri on the 1st line, right? Please tell me he won't just slot Bozak back in.

 

[Beowulf]

What's his 82 game pace now?

Only 57 goals, 107 pts. What a scrub!

 

[ZBBM]

Sundin scored one from farther out but about the same angle against the Isles a few years ago ... and effin' Kerry Fraser waived it off for goaltender interference.  But point is, it takes an special talent to score a goal like Kessel just did.

Dude, how do you even remember something like that?

Well, before the goal, I was going to say that I liked the game that Ashton is playing.  He is doing well recovering pucks in the offensive zone and maintaining control.  I don't really care if he scores -- he is chewing up time in the offensive zone so the other team can't and their defenders tire a little.  I saw this last game too.  He's the kind of 4th-liner I'd like to see on this team.  A 4th line of him, McClement and, perhaps Bodie or Leivo or something like that would be an excellent 4th line I wouldn't be afraid to play on a consistent basis.

If anyone, anywhere still questions that, they're crazy.

If it's still a Kessel/Seguin debate, Seguin is playing pretty well this year.

If we're just talking Bruins/Leafs, the Bruins won the Cup and still have Doug Hamilton to show for it.

I love Kessel and would rather him than Seguin, but I think we're still years away from determining a real winner there. Probably a wash, if anything.

Well, it was an incredible shot, and on top of that the disallowed goal cost us a point that night.  And that was one of those years where we missed the playoffs by a point.  IIRC....

And yeah, also what LHF said!
