The Canes put Semin on waivers....hopefully the space cleared goes to Sergey Tolchinskiy

[Beanflicker]

Good move, Semin stinks! Sergey Tolchinskiy would only get rookie salary, 500 or 600k whatever it is. Might as well try him out. He's a tiny little fuck though, they need to get him on that testosterone.

MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO!!!!!

Semin is a contract year player plain and simple...he's got talent, but no drive

[Beanflicker]

he's got talent, but no drive

He's Alexei Kovalev all over again HAHAHAHA

Kovalev was better more often than not. 430 goals, 599 assists...not shabby. Semin on the other hand...238 goals, 275 assists. 57 games last season....6 goals, 13 assists. I don't think Kovalev EVER had a season that fucking horrific.

Kessel has been traded to the penguins for some youngsters and 2 draft picks..

[Beanflicker]

Awesome news. This comes a day after Don Cherry basically gaurenteed everyone that Toronto wouldn't trade Kessel or Phaneuf.

As someone who hates the Leafs, I'm glad and I'm happy for Kessel, who got WAY TOO MUCH of the blame for that team going to shit. He's young, he's explosive, he has one of the best shots in the league and he's lead Toronto in the scoring every year he's been there.

Exciting trade for Pittsburgh. If he clicks with Crosby or Malkin that's going to be scary. Kunitz-Crosby-Kessel would be sick. Who knows how they'll play together, Phil's American so they don't have that international experience together.

Toronto should have kicked Phaneuf to the curb and kept Kessel IMO but what do I know.

[El Kabong]

Heck of a pickup for the Pens

[Beanflicker]

I guess now they're saying they didn't like Phil's attitude or something.

Mike Green is a Red Wing now. He had 30 goals as a defenceman years ago, he used to put up Erik Karlsson offensive numbers. Wings picked up Brad Richards too!

TJ Oshie to the Caps

@Beanflicker why do you hate Toronto so much?

They are the Chicago Cubs of hockey

I'm an Ottawa fan, bitter rivals of Toronto. The Battle of Ontario was really tremendous back 10 years ago when both teams were strong.

In Canada everyone is either a Toronto fan, Montreal fan, or other. Toronto has a lot of obnoxious fans who always overhype their team at the beginning of the season, saying this is the year they finally are gonna make it into the playoffs and make a run for the cup, so it's always exciting to see them fail miserably.

I hate Toronto and I hate Montreal, because when I was 7 they beat my idol Wayne Gretzky and the Kings in the cup final.

I'm Ottawa and Edmonton all day!

He's a sick player and I can't wait to see him in the NHL personally.

He's fast and agile as fuck but he is undersized, I think he's barely above 160 so he's going to have to beef up. Paul Kariya and Erik Karlsson did it, he can too.
