Sweet, guess what he said about Danny Dekeyser.

Why is this a thread? He praises scrubs all the time.

Love the coach, but man he falls in love with these scrubs. Does anyone agree with this?

Lets put it this way if you had something to do with the leafs he would say great things about you too even if they weren't deserved

I remember when he called Darren Helm the best 3rd line center in hockey. Babs loves to gush over his character guys. This is nothing new...of course, all the Leafs haters on HFBoards are flocking to this thread like ants finding sugar.

You really have your finger on the pulse of HF considering you just joined today.

Tremendous amount of respect for a player like Buster but I don't think he should be on the top line

"Danny is the next Lidstrom"?
He used to always say he's the human eraser, making up for everyone's mistakes.

Last year at the world cup he called Marc-Edouard Vlasic the same name, justifiably of course.

I do agree he's one of the most tenacious forecheckers. It's a shame he doesn't know what to do with the puck when he gets it, though.

So he's like this guy:

Gets to the bomb first but...ooops. :sarcasm:
