Sportsnet: Leafs meeting with DeKeyser [Signs with DET]

[TMLife*]

Don't freak out people! It was nice to see nonis make a good push for him but this guy is not a future Norris winner. Depth is nice, but we already have lots of it.

 

[FifthLine]

DeKeyser to Wings. Done Deal, per Aaron Ward.

lol what him blow this one too

Just watch Pittsburgh swoop in out of nowhere

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Oh no! What are we gonna do without him?

Waste of time for anyone pursuing him other than Red Wings, ya gotta think.

 

[SpeakerForTheDead]

Meh. Just another depth D. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in the AHL.

 

[Damisoph]

I know next to nothing about him.

Would have been nice, not upset in the slightest that he's gone to Detroit.

 

[Bravid Nonahan]

When you look at the performance of the average college free agent, what Tyler Bozak does is pretty amazing. No, he is not a #1 centre, but he does a pretty good job. He can handle the power play, win faceoffs, and can easily keep up to the NHL game.

Probably the best college UFA of the past few years.

Agreed, I hope we try to sign him to a resonable contract. No he isn't a number #1, but he has been playing well and has a good skill set.

DeKeyser to Wings. Done Deal, per Aaron Ward.

No one is surprised or atleast should be.

Exactly.

If Paul Ranger says he wants to play in the NHL, he would sign with Toronto and be a much better player than whatever Dekeyser is.

I could care less who he signs with.

There is no point hyping up a guy that 99.9% of people have never seen... just because he's the top college UFA doesn't make him a good D.

Wasn't Da Costa highly sought after? He's an AHL'er at best.

With college free agents...guys like Bozak seem like the best case scenario.

SHUSHHHH!!! He'll be the next Kadri just like Filatov will be the next Kessel, wait he'll be better than Kessel. There are always some anomalies but I am confident Dekeyser isn't one.

With that this thread closes.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

damn you....he hasn't signed with anyone yet and i fell for it.

 

[crump]

April fools not until Monday LR

 

[7even]

damn you....he hasn't signed with anyone yet and i fell for it.

That's what you get for listening to an Aaron Ward quote

 

[cyris]

Probably the best college UFA of the past few years.

Schultz. Even if he was previously drafted.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

damn you....he hasn't signed with anyone yet and i fell for it.

Geez LR, you must be an easy victim for pranks.

 

[LV*]

Geez LR, you must be an easy victim for pranks.

He's always drunk, so yeah.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

That's what you get for listening to an Aaron Ward quote

LOL! So true.

Geez LR, you must be an easy victim for pranks.

Actually in real life, I'm the prankster in my group

He's always drunk, so yeah.

How many times must I tell you...I don't drink! Lol
might as well post it before one of the LL boys/girl do it:

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Schultz. Even if he was previously drafted.

As long as the Oilers are running with a coach that have no sense of defense...he'll be an offensive threat but nothing else IMO.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Hasn't officially signed, but I bet he goes to Detroit. Would be nice to have another free wallet type addition though

 

[SpeakerForTheDead]

Schultz. Even if he was previously drafted.

Undrafted college UFA then. Schultz was a special situation.

 

[Doshy]

If he doesn't sign with us, I'd prefer him going to the West, in case he turns out to be amazing or something.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Dekeyser to DEt done

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 36s
Dan DeKeyser has chosen DET.

Now i can close this! YES!

TO NO ONE'S SURPRISE!

 

[Hurt]

Well he'll be in the West for like 15 games?
