Guest starvenger Report post Posted April 13, 2003 Cujo wanted to be like Vernon and Hasek, and right now he's playing like Osgood. He's capable of much better. But fuck him, he left the Leafs, I hope he does lose the series. Joseph has never been great. The Toronto media does a wonderful job of building up their stars to be better than they actually are. Yeah, he has. Ask the people in St. Louis and Edmonton... What did he do for them? Nothing, both of those squads choked under his play. He is a nothing, sad to say. What has he ever done? What awards has ever won? I'll compare him to a glorified Osgood. Singlehandedly won several series for the Leafs. If he hadn't played like he did, the Leafs never would have made it to the conference finals last year. Don't forget that the Leafs' D was poor and that they were relying on 'star' players like Paul Healey and Alex Ponikarovsky by the time they played the 'Canes. Now here's a question: if Joseph is as bad as you say, then what are the excuses Ottawa and the Isles have for losing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CanadianChris Report post Posted April 13, 2003 Now here's a question: if Joseph is as bad as you say, then what are the excuses Ottawa and the Isles have for losing? We lost our best defenceman and one of our top forwards in Game 5. If Chara plays, Rachunek is never on the ice to cut Domi open and let the Leafs back into Game 6.

Guest treble charged Report post Posted April 13, 2003 Joesph has won series by himself, pretty much, though. Like both of the series he won with Edmonton and against Ottawa last year. To put him in the same league as Chris Osgood is absurd. judging by today's performance, i dont think joseph can be compared to any of the top goalies in the league. you cant say that he has been the same joseph that was with the leafs last year. I didn't see today's game, but he didn't play bad in game 1, it's just that Giguere played awesome. I mean, Giguere has stopped 97 of 100 shots so far in that series, hard for ANYONE to win if you're playing against a goalie who's playing like that (and even then, the Wings came within an inch or so of winning game 1, with Robitaille hitting the post). And Joseph had bad games in the playoffs with the Leafs last year, too (the game on Long Island where he got pulled), he's just never really played against a goalie who's playing as well as Giguere is right now.

Guest treble charged Report post Posted April 13, 2003 I also wonder why the Sens traded for Rob Ray to get more toughness, but he's not playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the Capitals are ahead 2-0, but if they win this series, they likely have to go play the best team in the league, which bitch-slapped them on their own ice not two weeks ago. And they're the #6 seed in the East. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest starvenger Report post Posted April 13, 2003 and the best team? Detroit? I DON'T KNOW DAMN IT! Sorry, that would be Ottawa. Well, they have a President's trophy to prove that, I guess.

And they're the #6 seed in the East. Screw re-seeding, by the way. If Edmonton beats Dallas, they'll have to play Detroit or Colorado instead of Vancouver-St. Louis. Washington, as #6, should be entitled to the winner of New Jersey-Boston, not Ottawa. Re-seeding is a bad bad thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
