Lightning @ Leafs - Feb. 29th, 7:30pm - TSN4, Fan 590

For a salary dump, Greening is growing on me.

Please see your Doctor.  It's a minor laser procedure to remove.

Someone asked Busta who he was this morning, it made me think about his username again and I had also been reading the roster moves thread.

It was a fairly simple gag from there.

BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if there was much wisdom in starting Carrick, kid hasn't even had a skate with the team I don't think, looks a little lost out there.

I don't think Babcock is going to be too hard on any of these rookies. Mistakes will be expected.

Jeff O'Neil gained about 40 pounds since he hanged his skates...

He ate the weight his co-host Hayes lost.

 

[Highlander]

He looked like he was skating with 40lb skates at the time

Yeah, I don't think so either.

I can see playing Laich, it might have been wise to protect the youngster a little more though.

Kind of sad for  TJ Brennan.

Having Percy up with the Leafs would have complicated things with the roster juggling too. I'm guessing they'll stick with these 6 guys until/unless an injury hits.

 

[herman]

Carrick played NHL games before. He was brought up a bit too soon, granted. Marlie preservation move?

One Lamoriello rule is no in-game interviews with rookies so don't expect to see Nylander, other call-ups doing intermission interviews etc

I can't stand Hayes.

I find the 1050 restructure terrible - I loved Mike Richards in the AM, since really all I can handle is a bit of shallow humor until the 3rd cup of coffee kicks in - and now they've replaced him with Landsberg, who is as dull as dishwater. Naylor is alright, but he's not a morning drive personality.

To be fair all of Lou's rules make perfect, rational sense provided you don't know what any of those words mean. 

 

[Highlander]

hate to nitpick here but Willie is 39 and Kapanen is 37. I guess I will get used to it

 

[Kaberle15]

Kapenen looking good.

 

[herman]

Kapenen looking good.

Super confident coming back from the WJHC. Looks stronger than his size suggests.

 

[McGarnagle]

This game has a large number of "ov"s in it.
