Guest Sylvan Grenier Report post Posted April 18, 2006 mapleleafs.com: Why do you think the Leafs struggled so much against the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday afternoon? Playoff dissapointment Isn't this team partly owned by a teachers' union? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2006 mapleleafs.com: Why do you think the Leafs struggled so much against the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday afternoon? Playoff dissapointment Isn't this team partly owned by a teachers' union? Because Darcy Tucker is a cheapshot scumbag who the Sabres couldn't touch without risking suspension going into the playoffs...so they walked into the night where they were going to be crushed. You don't outshoot a team 16-8 in the second period and then claim "playoff dissapointment". They got beat...because a beating was coming... And they couldn't get the one they desereved without hurting a team that is...you know...doing something this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2006 Oh...and I haven't commented on this...but make NO MISTAKE that Tucker was laid out by a clean hit by Mike Grier...and then got up and went after the weakest person on the ice (Hecht) and went knee to knee like the little pussy that he is.

Of course the Leafs site is going to spin the loss, that's what it's for. About the Tucker thing- get over it. You're in the playoffs, the Leafs aren't and everytime the Leafs came to Buffalo, they got their ass kicked. Don't sound like an Islanders fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2006 I find myself rooting against the Flyers tonight as if they win the division they get the Devils which would be a death sentence in the first round (home ice or not). Sadly, I have to root for a Rangers victory tonight as that guarantees either NY or Buffalo. Of course if the defense does not learn how to stand people up at the blue line it really isn't going to matter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2006 The ticker on The Score reads Canucks News Conference for 2 p.m. It may be a typo, as the Kings also have one this afternoon, where they'll announce the firing of Dave Taylor. Anyone heard anything re: the Canucks? Crawford, I suspect? Wild one last night in Anaheim. The Mighty Burkes prevailed 4-3, but 102 penalty minutes handed out. It should be a great first round match-up. Also, the Score's ticker read last night "Lightining fire AHL coach Dirk Graham; give him undetermined NHL job". I just found that funny, reminding me of the Seinfeld where George tries to get fired to work for the Mets. Is any player more old school than Dirk? I'd say not.
