I was just scoping out the schedule last week and noticed that as well. Bizarre.

I really liked and respected Pat.  Some of my fondest Leaf memories are with him behind the bench. R.I.P Pat Quinn. 

I've been debating that.  I consider myself a free agent.  I think Colorado perhaps?  Maybe SJ?  I have to see who I find myself cheering for if these 2 match up.

I'd be buying him out asap. Why?  Because it's inevitable.  So if it's bound to happen, do it immediately to get the cap relief immediately. Why waste $5.25M in cap space next season when we could be saving around $3M we could put elsewhere... and we can play Ashton or Bodie in Clarksons...

You are giving him far too much rope and credit. David Clarkson can not play hockey.

So is there ever any move that is not a question? Clearly every move is judged retrospectively.  Saying "I was right" is justified.

THEN EVEN MORE REASON TO DO IT! Less Komisarek's, Blake's, Connolly's, Beauchemin's, Clarkson's, etc. We'll gladly take the guys begging for jobs with PTO's and cut from arbitration (MacArthur and Raymond).

Right, there's a time frame during the summer.  I was saying it in jest.

Saw it on capgeek.  Theres really only 1 or 2 significant years.  The rest are less than $2M or so. I'd have bought him out yesterday.

Why is depleted in quotation marks?  That was definitely a depleted Pens lineup.

For some reason? I think thats a coaching thing honestly.  We are constantly doing it.  I noticed Raymond liked to carry it but even he's dumping it now.  And last week when Ashton took that puck over the glass penalty?  He had Kulemin streaking right out of the zone but Ashton didn't even...

Clarkson for Weiss? I would make that trade in a nano second. 2 less years and a few hundred K less as well. 

What bothers me the most: We give the puck away with poor dump ins and lack of a forecheck. We NEVER circle back and wait for fresh linemates to pass the puck too. We have way to much tunnel vision... get the puck, dump it out and await the onslaught from the other team.  We don't value the...
