Recalled/Assigned: Leivo & Percy Recalled/Carrick & Bodie Sent Down

[SprDaVE]

How about Kessel. At least Clarkson will go near an opposing player. Kessel in the press box sends a message. What a wimp.

And then Clarkson falls.

 

[The Iceman]

Leivo should be in the top 6 right now.

YUP...4 goals in 17 AHL games. He will fit in perfectly in our top 6.
I don't get the love for Leivo people have. IMO shows how shallow our depth pool is.
I hope I am wrong though...

Kessel gets paid $8 million and he at least puts up points and elevates his teammates offensive play.

The Leafs pay Clarkson $5.25 million to:

A. Get his ass beat in fights

B. Fall down

C. Sit in the press box

D. Do something stupid on the ice

E. Not score

 

[diceman934]

I heard that Franson was banged up....but who knows.

Leivo is a great call up now that he is healthy...I do not understand the Percy call up even if we have a player banged up....unless something else is in works.

Doesn't he have 13 points in 17 games despite coming back from an injury?

I guess if goals only matter and points don't then...you must love Clarkson?

 

[Al14]

We really gave Carrick a good shot!

Let's send him down to actually take some regular shifts on the ice!

Let's sit Leivo in Carrick's place on the bench!

Percy should take a shift every other game as well!

 

[WilliamNylander]

Think this callup is foreshadowing...getting Leivo and Percy acclimated to the lineup/NHL for the deadline when we move out a winger (lupul?) and defenseman (franson?)

Good thing we have Kessel helping us OUTSCORE the opposition lately!

He has 13 points in 17 games, and is just coming back from injury. He was the Marlies best forward on the games over the weekend.. Guess you don't watch Marlies and only stat watch.

 

[Morguee]

So...now we have 8 defenceman?

Or is there an injury we don't know about.

I wonder if Dion's hand is still a little sore.

 

[Kingstonian84*]

Phaneuf, franson, polak, rielly,gardiner, holzer are our healthy blueliners and robdias is back soon. That's 7 blueliners right there, either someone is injured or we are making a trade involving our blueline... Either way something is up.

 

[diceman934]

I wonder if Dion's hand is still a little sore.

Maybe, but his head has been aching for years

 

[Al14]

I wonder if Dion's hand is still a little sore.

Nope, it's the WIND BURN from that Staal slapshot!

 

[Bluejaysfan*]

Can always count on you to use that terrific sample size.

 

[shaner8989]

Finally a smart move

Carrick and bodie are fringe plugs with no future
Leivo and Percy can and will be key players for us very soon

 

[ToneBone03]

All of you guys saying Carrick is a fringe NHLer are dead wrong. He's only 22 ffs! He will be a part of this team going forward as our #3 (at best) or #4C. He has a motor that doesn't quit, hits everything that moves, & is excellent on the forecheck/cycle. He'll be back.

 

[a a ron]

Should also be calling up our saviour nylander

 

[Smif]

I would hate this organization if I was on the team and only given 2 mins of ice time a night. Especially when Carrick actually looks good in those 2 mins too. So frustrating...

 

[The Iceman]

He has 13 points in 17 games, and is just coming back from injury. He was the Marlies best forward on the games over the weekend.. Guess you don't watch Marlies and only stat watch.

Holy Cow, was he really our best forward last weekend for the farm team??
How was his corsi?
My bad, put him in the top 6 he deserves it LOL...KABOOM. Tank it up baby!

 

[PlietscherDassel]

So...now we have 8 defenceman?

Or is there an injury we don't know about.

Robidas is out (upper-body injury)

 

[Loosie]

Bozak was absent from the morning skate...let the speculation machine start!

 

[wmark]

Bozak was absent from the morning skate...let the speculation machine start!

Maybe he hurt himself on the two bone crushing hits he made yesterday.

But since he was floating all game yesterday, he looked fine to me.

Lets all pray that he is traded and we get something decent back in return.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Robidas' supposed to be back after the all start break. Probably one game up then back down for Percy.

 

[Clark4Ever]

Knowing our luck, we will trade veterans at the deadline, call up some kids from the farm, and play good hockey down the stretch to screw ourselves out of a top draft pick.

Who is going to be our NEW Boyd Devereaux?
