shrader Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I think Kassian has much more offensive game than those 2. Now, he may not turn out to be as effective a pro as Neil is and May was, but that will be more a function of what's upstairs than his hands. Check out May's OHL numbers. I don't know how the changes in the game have effected that league over the years, but May had some really impressive offensive numbers there.

People also forget that, early in his career, he could put the puck in the net when he wasn't injured. Fortunately or unfortunately, its seemed he was always out with a broken hand from punching guys in the helmet. I pasted his career numbers below.

Yeah, I fully expected someone to call me on that one. I will admit to not having a clue when to use either of those words. And as for May, I still would have rather had Tkachuk.

No doubt about Tkachuk, but if Kassian turns into May, I will be happy. (If he turns into Tkachuk, I'll be happier.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Darcy was on a train to Erie going 80 MPH, leaving Buffalo at 3 PM......and Larry Quinn was on a train from Cleveland to Buffalo going 60 MPH and it leaves at 2:30 PM......what town do I need to be in to throw the switch on the rails at just the right time?

Wasn't meant to be answered seriously.....but since you did. You are wrong. If the tracks run along the 90....they would collide just inside the PA border. I suggest staying at the Red Carpet Inn, paying cash, under the name of Ted Nolan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by some chance SwampDonkey and I are right, you still have a chance. You could flip the switch so that Larry's train hits Darcy's while it is stopped in Erie. You just need to make sure you throw a really shiny coin down on the tracks in front of the parked train so that Darcy is distracted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need to make sure you throw a really shiny coin down on the tracks in front of the parked train so that Darcy is distracted. Or perhaps you could put a smallish forward with lots of potential there in place of the coin. That would get Darcy to stop and look for sure.

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 OK, we'll try another one. If an order of Matzah Ball Soup costs $3.50 and a gifelte fish costs $6 How many gifelte fish can Ronan Tynan stuff into his prosthetic legs on his appearance fee received from Larry Quinn if he only orders one Matzah Ball to put in his mouth as he attempts to sing the correct lyrics to the Star Spangled banner?

spndnchz Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 per GR550: Ryan Miller is not quite ready to start a game, but he will back up Jhonas Enroth in New Jersey on Wednesday as Patrick Lalime is fighting stomach problems. Lindy Ruff said, "Patty had some stomach issues this morning so we've sent him to see the doctor. He may not make the trip. It looks like Ryan may be ready to back up, so we should be OK. Lalime might be an appendicitis, that's what they're checking into right now." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
