[Ouroboros]

Cancel the Jack Campbell coronation.

Ffs Spezza

 

[Silencio]

Well at least Anaheim got a point.

 

[Ouroboros]

Elvis Merzlikins has 5 shutouts in his last 8 starts. Cool to see Columbus where they are after Jarmo got roasted all summer.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Cue the Leafs praise from Toronto media for barely beating the lowly Ducks in OT.

Always laugh when I see Spezza's patented, fake slapper, with a wrister after goalie bites. Especially funny that it was on Miller which i'm pretty sure he did it a couple times on as a Senator.

I didn't know that he was still trying this move.

Not trying; doing.

Good for Spezza for giving whats left in the tank.

I still wish he would have signed here or Dorion would have signed him, whichever side was the decider here.

Would have been a great story to have him back, mentoring the young guys, bringing back some old school Sens memories and maybe even retiring a Senator.

Who knows, maybe there is room for him next year if Toronto does not want him back.

The Sens had no interest, the Spezza camp approached them. Not sure what would change that they'd have interest next year.

No clue why they couldn't get Spezza a spot with all he could offer our kids when we have Sabourin taking up a spot.

I can't find the source but I'm positive that someone from Spezza's camp said we actually offered more $$ for him this summer, but Jason wanted to play for Toronto because of his dad being a diehard Leafs fan

These consecutive posts are hilarious when read after each other.

JASON SPEZZA: Why I chose Toronto over Ottawa | Windsor Star

Spezza, 36, grew up in Toronto and he talked about the intangibles – including the belief that Maple Leafs can contend for the Stanley Cup and the prospect of having his father watch all 41 home games – that go beyond the one-year, $700,000 contract.

Huzzah

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Was it not reported that we didn't want Spezza?

Toronto fans need to constantly be reassured

Too many guys more or less incapable of playing wing. I really would have liked to see Spezza back but add him into the mix....too many guys that play only bottom pair center minutes

 

[The Lewler]

lol, how many games has Kovalchuk won in OT or SO now for Habs?

It’s great, they’re screwing their draft pick

 

[BatherSeason]

Good guy getting another shot. We have seen this movie before. Lazar is there for the burgers too.

Lazar + Hammond? Get ready for the miracle playoff run! Happy for both of them though.

Imagine he pulls of another run?!! That would be one for the history books
