Dammit Demo! Hope it's nothing serious, but this is bum. He was just getting going too. He may not play for the Canucks before the Olympics, the CKNW site states.
Maybe he's getting traded, haha. OK, that's unlikely at this point.

here's my bet:

he’s probably meeting up with the people on the Slovak team for a bit of extra practice and preparation before the olympics….

Please tell me you meant that tongue in cheek. There’s no way in hell AV and GMMG would allow that.

I know this is completely unrelated...

But have you guys seen this?

Say what you will about the mediocrity of the Leafs, but they paid him 12 mill for 3 years of unbearably bad goaltending, and he didn’t even realize he was playing badly. He should at least be thankful.

I think it’s more that he’s ready to move on from that city’s media circus than his play and the organization. That, and the frustration from the losses. Goalies know when they play bad, it’s the ones who can pick themselves up afterwards that distinguish themselves.

That being said, he’s really sucked this year.

You got some fact wrong here. The Leafs traded for him when he had 1 year left on a cheap contract and he had put up good numbers in SJ. They did extend him 2 more year for $4M per after he put up a mediocre year, that’s probably where most people have a problem.

That said, I think this is a non-story. Someone just needed something to report/write about.

Yeah I guess.

Still baffling though. Audacity wise.

that’s the Star making something out of nothing. Toskala is a Russian too. I’m sure he didn’t mean it how it sounded.

by Sean Zandberg on Feb 8, 2010 2:50 PM PST up reply actions  

I think Toskala’s Finnish.

I don’t know why I keep thinking Vesa is Russian. Maybe because he played with Nabokov for so long..no idea

by Sean Zandberg on Feb 8, 2010 4:21 PM PST reply actions  

Vesa sounds like a Russian car, perhaps?

was it dirty? it looked shoulder on head to me. maybe a little late. i’m in favour of banning hits to the head, but as of now it’s still legal.

by jozsef on Feb 8, 2010 5:20 PM PST up reply actions  

turns out it was a clean hit, it’s just that salmena’s face hit the ice and started bleeding like crazy.

It was a clean shoulder-to-shoulder hit, but he twisted and fell awkwardly.

Hope he’s okay.

by cyxj on Feb 8, 2010 6:52 PM PST up reply actions  

I agree

Carter was just finishing his check, Salmena’s own shoulder hit him in the head I I think.

I was out of town when it came through Smithers, but I know this girl:

who carried it through Lilloet. She is my brothers wife’s cousin… if that makes any sense.

The torch came through Maple Ridge this morning. By morning I mean 7ish in the am. Too damn early.

according to mirtle's twitter, all these teams have scouts at the leafs-sharks game tonight:

Wings, Flyers, Habs, Blackhawks, Oilers, Bruins, Thrashers, Blues, Avs, Preds, Kings, Pens, Rangers, Devils, and Wild.

that’s half the fucking league!!!

Kaberle and Stempniak are probably next on the chopping block.

If Kaberle doesn’t want out of TO then he’s not going anywhere. Burke has already said he won’t ask him to waive his NTC

by Sean Zandberg on Feb 8, 2010 8:11 PM PST up reply actions  

See

what I mean about players knowing where they stand with Burke.

Didn’t he say before that he’s willing to waive his NTC?

He could still be traded in the off-season, I guess.

Sounds like Burke hung out an “everything must go” sign, which might not be too far off the truth, actually.
