Why stop there when you could ignore the whole forum?

Yeah it'll be interesting to see how long Carter is 1C there with Crosby and Malkin out. Can't imagine that's gonna go too well.

Carter's a smart player, good 2 way player and still has a good shot. He should do fine until Crosby returns. Hextall's latest update was that he was on schedule, so that should be somewhere Oct 15th to 20th. A handful of games.

That's not their problem, even Crosby and Malkin won't save them from their goaltending.

Handful of games can be the difference, you never know.

Can’t believe the Kings let Amadio go. He could’ve been the greatest player in franchise history.

Good for him. I still have a soft spot for Amadio.

I actually found it funny that he burned his more recent former team. And that backchecking effort, yikes.

Gross, Chabot looked like Clague there.

Completely forgot about Rempal! Not forgotten? All the posts of peeps penciling Rempal into our foward lines.......

 

[cyclones22]

Amadio always tried stuff that was just above his actual skill level. Occasionally he would make a really nice play, but other times he overestimated what he was capable of executing and it turned into an odd man rush the other way. Lemme try this Gretzky drop-pass right here. Or stick handle at the blue line with no defensemen backing him up.

Like a certain poster we know who did that with Max Kitsyn?

Amadio brought some speed to LAs lineup that we had not seen for a couple of years.
Thats why some liked him. Once speed around him caught up he got lost.

Kinda creepy how you remember everyone’s blunders lol

Would you say he Amadiosed himself?

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Meh, Amadio is like Nick Shore before him, and sort of like Lizotte now--depth players who some of us go to bat for because people want to pick on them instead of avoiding the real problems.

Something like that stands out above the rest. It would be like someone today clamoring for Alexander Dergachyov to be a top line forward in the lineup.

What planet are you on? MA was soft and slow as F***. He actually had decent hockey sense and playmaking skills -- just not the physical tools to match.

 

[BringTheReign]

With how starved the Leafs are for scoring depth, I wouldn't be shocked if Amadio stuck and lucked his way into a bunch of secondary assists. They currently have David Kampf, Pierre Engvall, and Michael Bunting in roster spots on the 3rd and 4th lines. You never know.

He's Alexander DerGreat for a reason.
