Heward is 37 and still plays in the minors
D Jamie Heward, 22, plays for the Norfolk Admirals and has 2 assists

Richard Petiot, 26, played for the Marlies and has 3 goals, 11 assists

bunch of no names

the highlight of the trade was the 4th round pick

Essentially, they took on salary (all players are FAs) at the end of the year for a 4th rounder. So, they bought a 4th rounder - for the price of 400-500K.

Sounds like it was also Burke doing a favour for Lawton..... This enabled TB to qualify for another million or so in revenue sharing.

You only saw Antropov the first few years of his career. He scored 26 goals last season and he's scored over 20 this year. The kid has soft hands, he can play on both the powerplay and penalty kill, and he can mix it up - and speaking as a Rangers fan, I'm excited to see him play with Gomez.

Sorry jeff, you have no idea what you're talking about.

maybe you should refrain from posting in here, because guy, you sound somewhat clueless. I'm a Rangers fan and I'm happy to be getting Antropov for a 2nd rounder.

I'm 35 and have watched hockey all my life until recently, so fuck that, i know what i'm talking about. Just because i disagree with you doesn't mean i don't know what i'm talking about.

Not only that, alot of my friends are life long hockey fans as well and they think Antropov sucks. Are you saying none of them know what they're talking about as well?

No, you don't know what you're talking about (neither do your friends), but nice try.

They're not even close. That comparison is kinda weak. Antropov could be more than what he is, but only started coming into his own last season. He was never considered a star.
Bargnani is finally healthy and starting to put up numbers like we thought he would.

Except for the fact that Bargnani has more athleticism in his big toe then Antropov has all together.

He's been a solid player for a number of years. He had some better luck finding the back of the net last season, but he has been a reliable 2-way forward for a while. Maybe it's the people who expect more from him (i.e. superstar) that are the ones saying he sucks. Or maybe just the people who don't know much about hockey.

But I agree, the Bargnani comparison doesn't hold water.

I call it as i see it. In fact i'm being pretty tame considering he told me to fuck off yesterday.

Since the Leafs drafted him, you (or at least I) expected him to put up 20-goal seasons. He only started doing that last season, but you're right, Wu, he has been responsible defensively for a while now.

Acie · 03-05-2009, 10:55 AM

Again I'll say jeff's girlfriend must've ran away with a Leafs player because for a guy that doesn't watch or care about hockey anymore he sounds pretty bitter and continues to post in this thread despite claiming to not be interested in the sport.

It's funny that you're 35 and you use terms like "lol" pretty liberally and you put exclamation marks everywhere in your posts.
