If Crosby stops taking dives, he might get some more calls. :thumb: Nice job mentioning how Bohonos scored a point a game in the playoffs and the Leafs just dumped him. Antropov and Kopahawsky suck. Kopahawsky's (Ponikarovsky) first goal tonight was sad. Both Atlanta goalies were horrible. With good goaltending that could have been a very close game tonight.
I think my rec goalie is better than anyone Atlanta has on their active roster at the moment.
Man, you have a serious hate on for Crosby, don't you?
As for Bohonos, statements like Cherry's about guys like Bohonos kill me. The Leafs weren't the only team in the NHL to pass on him. Anyone could have had him when the Leafs dropped him, but no one bothered. Not only that, but last year he lost his job in Swiss league because of all the NHLers that showed up.
Cherry's lobbying to get more Canadians on the Leafs is tiresome. The other week he was whining that the Leafs didn't have Spezza, Heatley, or Staal. Well Don, considering Spezza went #2, Heatley went #1, and Staal went #2, when exactly could the Leafs have drafted them? Last I checked, they haven't had a top 5 pick since 1989. Kinda makes it difficult to draft the top prospects.
