READ THIS POST TO HEAR A HILARIOUS JOKE ABOUT THE TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS

TOPPINGS

kovalev to the pens....interesting

ERIC

ya

not mind blowing though

TOPPINGS

nope....the day-long trade deadline special that tsn has on every year might be the biggest waste of airtime in TSN history though if deals keep happening haha

ERIC

hahaha

ya

they'll just be re-hashing

TOPPINGS

analyzing every trade...i hate that

i wonder if brad richards will get moved

ERIC

ya, i dunno

i bet he does

i'm thinking LA

he'd be a nice fit there i think

i don't know dallas's cap situation

TOPPINGS

i was thinkin that too...team that is in the running, and still has the resources to sign him long term

but yeh dallas getting rid of Neal maybe frees up some space to get him signed by July

ERIC

ya maybe

TOPPINGS

but then again I think he's the perfect type of player to fit in with Edmonton

ERIC

He’d be perfect for them. He’s exactly the type of guy they need.

TOPPINGS

Edmonton has the cap room, I think all they need is a go-to guy like Richards, a couple savvy veterans for leadership, and a good draft of defensemen this year, and if everybody on the team buys into the team philosophy, they could be a really great team in a few eyars

ERIC

ya man

if they got richards and keep hemsky and penner

that would be solid.

TOPPINGS

i'm not 100% sold on Penner, but maybe that's because of the supporting cast

or lack-of

ERIC

ya

he's asked to be a top 3 forward when he belongs on a second line

TOPPINGS

putting Cogliano up for trade might be a good idea down the stretch as well

ERIC

ya

i think he needs a change of scenery

learn to be a two way player

TOPPINGS

yeah clearly he's been a let-down as far as expectations go

Gagner hasn't been great either, but he'd be the one I'd stick with out of the two

ERIC

definitely

less of a dickhead maybe haha

the guy just sounds like an ass in interviews

TOPPINGS

so you wouldnt like him in Detroit then? haha

ERIC

cogliano?

i think detroit would fix him man

i've said this before

TOPPINGS

hahaha yeh i know

not sure if he'd fit in with Detroit

ERIC

they have a good young group now, and in Edmonton cogliano is a hotshot young player on a team of hotshot young players

TOPPINGS

i should rephrase that...i don't see HOW he fits in....it pains me to say it, but detroit seems to have their shit together on the front end...the only spot i can see him playing is 4th line, which Detroit usually reserves for the quick, young tough guys that battle hard

quick? yes

TOPPINGS

works hard? yet to be seen

ERIC

right

i guess i have a soft spot for him because i want more canadians there

TOPPINGS

haha fair enough

ERIC

and because i loved him in the world juniors

and i'm pretty sure him and helm played on the same team actually

TOPPINGS

yep they were both part of that Canada vs USA shootout when Toews scored 3

ERIC

yes

TOPPINGS

not sure if Helm got to shoot in that, but I know Cogliano scored at least once

ERIC

helm didn't

detroit doesn't need another center though

so cogs isn't going there

TOPPINGS

trade him to toronto...clearly they have too many first round picks than they know what to do with this year

ERIC

hahahaha

ps i'm destroying people online in nhl 11 right now

TOPPINGS

hahaha nice

ERIC

they are all quitting early because i'm beating them so badly

TOPPINGS

hahaha

i got send a joke at work today that said "I went to the bar last night and approached a girl who was wearing a maple leafs jersey so I said 'Hi there, my name is 3-goal lead....I thought clearly she would blow a 3-goal lead"

ERIC

hahahahahaha

that's amazing

TOPPINGS

on that note, I gotta go

later dude

ERIC

later buddy
