The thing with Benoit is that he was literally no different than the guy they signed. Compare his stats between Anaheim and Toronto - he pretty much hit about the same had more points in Anaheim, played against similar competition - the difference is that his supporting forwards in Toronto were better and his supporting cast on D was better.

He stood out on Toronto because no one else on this team plays like he does. That's how little toughness was on this team - they added a 6th D who hits people - he's not even particularly big - and everyone loves him because no one else on the team does what he does.

I think under Berube we're going to see a lot more physicality from Knies and McMann - and they weren't really slouches last year. You want to become a fan favourite in Toronto? You could score 69 and that's not bad, but go pummel some guys into the wall and they'll build you a statue.

Yeah you’ve got this bang on. Yes he plays rough but so do two of the three new d men. So the new guys in Toronto could now that play a very similar game only better.

I'm doing a new stupid thing for the upcoming fantasy season.

I will only be selecting players from my Blue and Whites : Toronto, Tampa, and St. Louis.

My goal is finish in any position other than dead last in the league.

I know some will hate this.

But Klingberg lives in Toronto still.

Someone spotted him golfing with Jarnkrok and Lily and talked to him, he said he is hoping they can work something out. (Pre Hakkanpaa signing)

Can totally see Tre trading waiving Timmins and replacing him with a 350K cheaper Klingberg as the 8th d man.

It's usually prudent to remain living in your current residence until you know where you're signing.

It won't be Toronto. For better or worse, OEL is his replacement.

Well he said he hopes he can sign here.

And yeah.

He would be replacing timmins as an 8th D for 350K cheaper.

They can also give him a signing bonus and send him to the Marlies first.

Regardless I see him being in the organization in some shape or form.

If Klinger could stay healthy and play for near league minimum, I would be fine with it. I don't see it as a bigger risk than Haaktuah.

Unless OEL dies, I don't think he could do worse.

This month is going well, or the idea of all this walking is a good one.

Earlier this month I found a $50 dollar bill at around 5:45am on the sidewalk a few houses down from my place, and today I found a $20 bill in downtown London at about 11:15am on the sidewalk right in front of the RCMP office. Middle of the day on a busy street a block and a half away from where the Knights play, it was a shock but a good one.

Even OEL’s corpse lying flat in the D zone would be better than Klingberg

Bruce, if you are murdering people and stealing their petty cash, you don't need to tell us.

Minten is fast as (frank) for a big guy.

Niemela is a lot bigger than I remember.

Chadwick is pretty good too.
