Next season when he'll join the dubious class of Gomez, Redden, Horcoff, Kaberle, etc. Also now CBA talks over it's nothing but Luongo trade rumours. Here is the latest scoop. The leading candidates: -Florida -Toronto The maybe: -Edmonton Oilers -Chicago Blackhawks (LOL) The I s*** You Not But This Team Has Their Names Attached To Trade Rumours by Some Sources: {Spoiler}BOSTON BRUINS!!!!! Edit: Shawn Horcoff did a interview saying he believes he'll not be bought out next season and his play speaks for himself!!! He may not suck as much Gomez does or doesn't have a worse contract than him, but being in Fehrs innercircle of players and constant complaining and acting like he's been a better Oilers captain than Messier or Gretzky, I'd say he's more annoying than Gomez. At least Gomez knows he sucks, seems to be thankful for his inflated contract, and doesn't try to pass himself off as God's gift to hockey. Wait a minute - do you mean to tell me that the Bruins might be interested in Luo?  Weird. I spent a little bit of time on a Bruins fansite recently and a few of them actually want PK. That'd be a head trip if they got those two on the team. Yeah, I'd say Horfcoff is better than Messier and Gretzky. Right.

Wait a minute - do you mean to tell me that the Bruins might be interested in Luo? Weird. I spent a little bit of time on a Bruins fansite recently and a few of them actually want PK. That'd be a head trip if they got those two on the team. I know as fans we're supposed to cheer for the logo on the front of the jersey and not the name on the back, but I'd have a damned impossible time summoning the fortitude to cheer for P.K. Subban and/or Roberto Luongo in black and gold. I've had to swallow my pride with other Boston-area teams signing players I detested, like the Celtics with Jermaine O'Neal and Rasheed Wallace, but this would almost be too much. I really don't see how, barring a complete collapse by Tuukka Rask, the Bruins' front office would even consider burdening themselves with Luongo. Even if Rask suffers a total meltdown and becomes a lanky Finnish sieve, I think they'd still try to unearth Tim Thomas from his bunker in Colorado or give a lion's share of the starts to Anton Khudobin before even asking about Luongo. I could see them making a phone call or two about Subban at some point in the future, because he has most of the qualities they look for in a player, but his penchant for diving, embellishing and general douchebaggery would definitely cause some concern among this particular Bruins fan. |

For those on twitter, if you follow Larry Brooks (@nyp_Brooksie), get a load of this guy who replied to what Larry wrote about Moore's wife passing: Language warning! twitter.com/KINGLUONGO/status/288726179916156928Take a look at this clown's posts afterwards that genius remark. There are some people who should not be allowed within a mile of a computer. |

No offense, but don't you stomach everything you've accused P.K. Subban of being guilty of with Brad Marchand? Don't get me wrong, I like both guys especially when they're trolling, but I think you can handle Marchand, you would be able to handle Subban. |

I hate playing against P.K. Subban, but I know for a fact I'd love him if he was a Penguin. It's like Matt Cooke today. A lot of people hate his guts, but I am glad he's on my team. Same as Ulf Samuelson in the 90s. He was a borderline dirty player. Any time he played against the Pens, I hated his guts, but for those years he was a Penguin, I adored him. Just the way it works. Very few players I'd hate even if they were on my team.

Brian Burke's been fired:
Bob McKenzie Bob McKenzie @tsnbobmckenzie
Toronto Maple Leafs have apparently fired Brian Burke as general manager. Working on official confirmations.
I guess Don Cherry will be happy now.

I don't know why they waited until now, but ok.

Granted 90% of what he tried failed, but at least he tried. You know, people at another board have brought this up and it makes sense. He must have done something wrong or not done something in the Leafs' crusade to get Luongo. |

Good Riddance. Now I can finally hear TSN commentators to shut up on how Burke is one of the greatest GM's of all times or see close ups of his face whenever the word owner or GM or president is muttered even when they aren't talking about the Maple Leafs. But seriously long overdue. But it's pretty stupid to enter a season without a GM or how you're one of the leading candidates to get Luongo.

I know I am in the minority, but I'll miss Brian Burke. The Leafs are my second favorite team and I always like what Burke brought to the table.
Like someone else said above, at least he wasn't afraid to try stuff.

Datsyuk and Kovy are both playing in the KHL all star game because the CBA isn't ratified yet. The KHL guys actually expressed disappointment that so many NHL players left so quickly.
