All Purpose Training Camp Thread.

[p.l.f.]

even an injury would be good
what ever keeps connolly out of the lineup

 

[Warden of the North]

Vancouver might be interested due to there health issues. Maybe a small trade?

 

[ULF_55]

Looks like we will probably have the same top six as last year.

And if they had a decent defensive system last year I think they make the playoffs.

They were inept in their own zone, and that was their downfall.

 

[Leaf_Crazy]

Two reasons for Connolly not on the ice, and both are likely at this point.

He could be traded because, its that time that roster spots might need to be made.

He could be injured, because well, its ****ing Tim Connolly.

 

[crump]

Connolly trolling Leaf Nation. Back out there now.

Fourth lines - Steckel-Frattin-Orr and McClement-Brown-Connolly.

 

[Michael Gary Scott]

Wouldnt be surprised if connolly is gone to LA or Calgary

 

[HockeyGuruPitka]

Connolly on waivers? or traded? HMMMM

Noooooo what a troll.

 

[Eyedea]

Im going to guess "maintenance day" for Connolly

I don't think anybody deserves a maintenance day besides Kessel, Lupul, Grabovski and Phaneuf, especially during a shortened training camp.

Looks like Tim Connolly might have been waived. Not on ice today.

Freakin....

Listening to the live feed. Connolly IS NOT on the ice.

That's confusing. But good to hear he's not on the ice.

Grabovski and Kulemin have already played 29 and 36 games respectively this year.

Kulemin leaving while in 7th. spot in scoring and 1st. in plus/minus in KHL.

Of the NHL players, they'd be the only forwards that would deserve a maintenance day.

dreams can come true

lombardi gone yesterday
connolly ......

We do know Connolly is made of glass. But apparently he was absolutely awful in camp yesterday.

I don't think they'd waive him.

He'd have value around the league, especially if the Leafs picked up some salary. He's earning 4 million this year (which will be pro-rated) so he isn't a tough sell.

Fair enough. I was going to include Kulemin but I suspected Carlyle is looking into whether he or JVR should be placed on the 2nd line.

At this point it seems like a no brainer though. He's already in midseason form and has been one of the best looking players at camp thus far.

 

[Warden of the North]

Hendricks would likely have tweeted again if he was mistaken.

Maybe Connollys been waived?

 

[Cor]

ALL HAIL DAVE NONIS

(if Connolly gets waived)

Anyone think they may just do the buyout? We only need it for Komisarek, and Connolly will be on the cap in the minors anyway

 

[ACC1224]

Can't see any way Connolly is waived.

 

[Cappayne]

Please please please... let the news be a trade. For any/no picks.

 

[Cor]

Can't see any way Connolly is waived.

What? Why?

 

[TmlHockeyFan]

Connolly + Lombardi gone also clears up more cap space. Maybe Nonis is going for something too.

 

[leafobserver]

Dreger just tweeted that he's been waived. Great news!
