Christ the Leafs' defense was putrid. Angello & Zucker could have pulled up lawn chairs next the net.

Just Illness right? He'll be back in short order.
Yeah I heard that last night during the game that it was an illness. Good to know it is nothing serious.

Carter and Lovejoy went on how they want to play October Hockey and win games 6-5. Both truly think the Panthers will pass them for the playoffs.

BTW....Lovejoy in that seat is fun for Penguin fans but the rest of the fans will want to puke due to his bias/familiarity towards the Penguins.

I always thought that would be a good fit for Lovejoy from the interviews he gave as a player. Glad to see he ended up going into broadcasting. Great fit.

Damn you would think the Sharks traded a 1st Rd pick judging by the fanbase reaction to letting go of Marleau!? Old man was a fan favorite. Big vet presence in the locker room, and looking at his film he still has plenty left in the tank.

Good get for the Pens, even if its a 1 year loaner.

I'm more pumped to see Sheary back in the fold! Got the old band back together! LETS GO PENS!!!!

:yahoo:

He has to be dead if they made the Buffalo trade. Nothing in those two players gives us more than Kahun except Rodrigues can take faceoffs.

The uproar over Kahun is ridiculous

Back on topic. Really Kahun for Sheary is a wash but I did think Kahun was a little better in the defensive zone. For a team with injuries getting the extra body is nice, read a few reports that Rodrigues might have a scoring touch that wasn't displayed in Buffalo? Granted I know nothing about him as a player so I have to take it for what it is worth.

One item lost in all of this is the fact that Lafferty and Angello can go back to WBS since they have a full complement of NHL forwards. Not that they were bad but as typical with any AHL filler, good in small batches.

This is assuming that Kahun is healthy... But I agree that its mostly a wash with Sheary. It does weaken the defense, which was already the biggest weakness they have. So that's definitely cause for concern.

Makes me wonder if Kahun wanted more money.

So now with 18+ forwards, and in typical Sully fashion, they'll play different people together every night so they don't get too familiar with each other.

Crap, how will I be able to tell the difference between Simon and Sheary now? I thought I was done with that shit...

They both suck and can't believe the Pens traded to bring him back...

If Sheary can keep his stick on the ice he is a better version of Simon with Crosby.
