Can we trade for Tyler Myers? The 2009 ROTY winner


Is that Tavares or a crash test dummy? Good thing he went down like a house of cards because Byfuglien who threw down Hyman like a baby was about to light up Tavares.

Good thing Toronto traded Matt Martin, they can handle themselves without him.

Not sure if this is it. Pretty amazing though. I could actually listen to Leafs media if they keep talking like this.

The more and more this goes on I find that this was the second best thing that could have happened to the Islanders. Maybe not this year, next year or the next, but beyond that when he loses a step? Considering he’s already not terribly quick he’s going to be in trouble.

He still screwed over the franchise with his crocodile tears and requests not to be traded though.

That video makes me think Toronto should change their name from The Maple Leafs to The Punching Bags.

You don't mess with Big Buff.

He's the Leafs problem now.

He may be my favorite non-Islander. Guy just doesn’t give a single shit about anything.

I think his style of play will age well honestly. He doesn't rely on his wheels (at all) so losing a step as he gets older will not be an issue. He'll still be a great passer, win battles along the boards and have a knack for creating space down low to get scoring opportunities. I think he'll be a 60-70 point player well into his 30's.

I LOVE THIS! Hopefully, that P.O.S. shrivels up and gets bitter under the constant spotlight of that insane Toronto media. Can't wait to see what they have to say in a few years, when his already slow game gets even slower and they're still into him for $11 mil per for years to go!

ps-was just over on the Leafs board. Apparently some of the posters over there are already starting to question his game as well. LOVE IT!
