In my fantasy league of 8, Toskala was one of the goaltenders who actually didn't get drafted.

Also, what the heck is this thread supposed to be about?

Go here and read this...

Its easier to read if you zoom in to 125% (page - zoom - 125%)

And you can go back over a few pages to learn more.... its all basically explained

Oh man, I started reading that, and just thought, "I cannot handle this". This thread is way too much for me. Good luck!

You might be a Newfie Jedi if.....

------------------------------------------------

1.You ever heard the phrase, "May the force be witt ya by*'."

2. Your Jedi robe is made of seal skin.

3. You have ever used your light saber to quarter a moose.

4. Both wings of your X-Wing are done over with sheet metal and rivets and are covered with polybond.

5. You have ever eaten bottled Ewok.

6. You have ever used a land-speeder to get away from wildlife officers.

7. The best part of spending time on Dagobah is the great weather.

9. You have used Jedi mind tricks to help you drag off someone from the Sundance (Bar on George Street) and Breezway (University Bar).

10. You have ever used the force to convince a Human Resources Canada officer to give you unemployment insurance checks.

Yet another wonderful addition to the team...and what an intro!! :lol::D

Welcome to the thread HFFR and may the moose...or cod be with you. You will quickly find that this place gets really addictive, really fast!

FYI on your sig could you kindly change the format of the text to match the others (we try to remain consistent with one another), and also feel free to include the MN-blog site url at the bottom http://mn-thecountdown.blogspot.com/

PS Anyone tell you about our other games yet? MN Jeopardy? Predictions?

Ditto...and I haven't forgotten about your sig yet...it's coming. There is also an ongoing project to update and improve the NL standings chart as well as my MN# sig, so that may be holding things up.

Oh and for the first day, the stats are simple...just post 50% for everything! :lol:

Roys Hat trick Leads Sabres Over Leafs

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=219300&hubname=nhl

'I felt sorry for Vesa,'' Sundin said. ha ha. i don't.

And Toskala was supposed to improve Toronto's goaltending.... It may just be the preseason but it looks like another spring on the golf course. :D

Glad the Leafs solved their goaltending problems in the off season... Veteran "leaders: were invisible. Tucker has once again showed that he is only good to bang in cheap goals; take cheap shots and completely fail defensively.

Leaf Nation:BAIL NOW!!!!, or get USED to it!!!

Clemmenson and Pogge outplay Raycroft and Toskala in preseason, yet they'll both be in the minors to start the season! Pity! That was some aweful goaltending and even worse team play. Wheres the consistenacy? At least in the loss Ottawa they played great but tonight was just pathetic..... games like this kill my playoff beliefs......

And this Toronto team is supposed to make the playoffs?? Gimme a break, Nel Carter! The postseason is a long shot at best!

Might only be Pre-Season but Leafs looke awful.....reminded of the Pat Quinn country club atmosphere out there....poor effort especially in net...make you wonder why JFJ signed Toskala to an extension right away without proving himself..what did he think he stole the KFC secret? No wyou know why JFJ did not get his extension cause the freight train is headed right for him...if this team fails and they have the receipe do due so he will be replaced quickly or at least should be this is MSLE we are talking about.....One thing for sure paul cannot be happy with this effort all on fronts even though it is pre-season his team stunk and they played with litttle passion. The Leafs like usually do not have the skill to play like at 50% they just do not have the speed or skill.....long live the Leafs losing ways......they look no different than they did.......if I was the coach I would be making them skat twice tomorrow and then makes the necessary cuts to trim the roster down to about 30 people......I was just put back as I get most fall seasons to rush home and see the Leafs only to see them being man handled by some fast kids...my hat is off to the buffalo organization for the depth they have.....good job....Leafs should buy their playbook and management from top to bottom....if we lost our top 2 guys whoever they are w would fold our tent and have a parade anyway.....Leafs suck forever.....41 years and counting....

Pylons still available! Can serve in a pinch as a top 4 defense man or a goalie! Act quickly while supplies last Toronto!

Great Day to Be a Leafs Scout!

What does the admiral do around this joint?...sir.
Who me??? Well... once the season starts I will be the scout myself for the Pittsburg Penguins (and wildcard for other teams including our illustrious Habs) ... keep an eye open for Penguins Poop (not literally... I won't throw it at you) and my Penguins on ice feature. I also post odds stats etc. as well as an Ice Chips update feature (unless HTL beats me to it) for all Eastern Conference teams. I make predictions (not very good at this even though I tied for first over all and in the playoffs last year... forget the other guy, he's a has-been this year). I write poems (if you want to call them that... and songs), dance with the best of the MN crew on occasion and probably post too much.

Of course it could be any of my alter egos... you know... the Admiral, brianw6, HHN and on occasion Smiegel pops in.

And you?
