I legit forgot this guy existed. He's reaching Carlo Colaiacovo levels of injury-proneness... out because he got hit in the ear with a puck over the summer.

Pretty bizarre Leipsic stat that I just read: in almost 38 minutes of powerplay time he's been on the ice for 2 goals for... and 3 goals against.

He's just one of 4 players with a sub-50% GF on the PP (with over 35 minutes played). Provorov, Marcus Johansson, and Leipsic's former teammate Loui Eriksson are the others.

I remember there were a lot of Leafs fans upset when he lost him in expansion. That was much ado about nothing
 
The Tyler Biggs saga takes a new twist. After 9 points in 24 British Elite League games...

These type of players usually are. I'm just happy when they find a regular spot on a team. They rarely end up being difference makers.

I think of guys like Jay Harrison who weren't quite good enough to stick with the Leafs but caught on with another club and put together a couple good years.

What you remember is that there were a number of Leafs fans who thought the Leafs should probably protect him instead of, say, Matt Martin or Josh Leivo. Nobody thought he was going to be a star, just that it was a bad decision to lose him instead of guys who the Leafs subsequently gave away.

And honestly despite him being on waivers, I still think that's true. Even now I'd rather see what he could do as a 4th line LW than Ennis.

edit to add: He had 14 points in 31 games with the Canucks, which is a 37 point pace. For his career he's got 31 points in 81 games in 4th line minutes. He's basically 150% of Seth Griffith.
 
Nah, you know what? I am still mad about that. Leipsic and Johnsson are about the same age, same size but Leipsic was a better AHL scorer and has, so far, been a better NHL scorer. The idea that Johnsson is some terrific prospect we should be afraid to lose because of a cap crunch while Leipsic is bouncing around strikes me as the kind of thinking that defers way too much to NHL authority.

That?s wild. I wonder if he even left Minnesota. Haha this game is in Vancouver.

His Matthews impression is pretty okay here.
 
Just booked a trip to Munich at the end of January where I plan to catch Red Bulls Munchen playing Grizzly Adams Wolfsburg, I shall report back on the plethora of former Leafs on the Munich team (Stajan, John Mitchell and of course, Keith Aulie)

At the end of the day will Stajan think of himself as a Leaf or a Flame? Didn't even know he wasn't still in Calgary.

A Flame...Stajan made the playoffs only 3 times in 15 years....wow, some horrible Leafs and Flames teams.
