Who knows he might be one day I’m pretty sure it isn’t today though but your right he’s definitely cheaper and lily was top 4 or shipped out and he wasn’t beating anyone out of the top 4 I’m pretty sure league wide it’s known which of the two are actually the better player but ones on the leafs one isn’t I’m cheering for the one we have im just not gonna be unrealistic of which of the 2 is the better player currently

Can't think of any facet of Timmins game that isn't better.

It’s soo easy to poke at that response so I won’t I will say simply positioning since that’s the easiest one and what I’m saying to you isn’t an opinion that only I have former players can see the difference not saying Timmins can’t be the better player in the near future he’s kinda learning how to play in the league at 25 with very little experience but like I said earlier he’s on the team lily isn’t so I’m rooting for him I’m just not gonna pretend that the better player wasn’t paid more

Hands up anyone who's missing him.

He's like most of the players on the team.

Replaceable.

I’d say some, not most.

Well, if we want to get precise they all are and they all will be ... but ...

If we're looking at a small timeframe probably half the players could be replaced, just not as easily as: Liljegren/Timmins/Benoir/Robertson/Lorentz/Kampf/Dewar/Holmberg/Reaves/Myers/McMann/Pacioretty/Jarnkrok/... who are just depth NHLers.

Was it a good goal?

Was it a good goal?

pacing with timmins I suppose...

 

[tokyoite]

got traded after all
I liked him oh well
matt benning had a season ending hip injury that required surgery last season

Was it a good goal?

Fluke deflection over heads and drops in the net.

But he ended night +1, best +/- on their defense, playing 2nd. pairing minutes.

Just getting development time on a bottom feeder, something he didn't get with a "contending" team in Toronto.
