Anyone saying we should scratch Briere or Gionta for Bournival is out of their minds. Yes Bournival will be a great player for this team going forward, but come on guys.

It could have been tonight if you had Bournival on it to matchup against the awful players the Leafs put on their 4th line.

i do agree but i'm torn with this. Every time Dick-lyle dresses both Orr and McClaren they start some serious ****...parros injury, bourque injury etc...

the habs need some kind of deterrence. i hope habs don't start **** but there's a psychological advantage that they believe if they play dirty and physical they'll win. amazingly Boston doesn't do it anymore..maybe it's because reimer has played out of his mind or because we can't punish them with our PP - i don't know but they need to exercise these leaf ****er demons tonight

We have to dress Parros to deter the Leafs from injuring Parros?

i'm just posting we seem to get injuries every game we play them...maybe Parros is a bad example but there are others. the leafs play a pure cheap-shot game vs. us that began about 2 years ago

Bournival didn't do so well on that tying goal last night! He cost us a point.

He didn't screw up any worse than Emelin who is still in the top 4.

Bournival on the 4th means that line is awfully good at pushing play for a depth unit. They'd most likely throtle the AHL Prospect - Not a regular NHL starter - Goon 4th line the Leafs are using tonight in the head to head.

Not to mention that won't be a 4th line you have to hide away from the Leafs' top six like you do with Parros on the ice.

I'm a huge Bournival fan. I thought he looked good last night, but I would sit him for the defensive lapse. I think it's good for him. DD and Patches were floating last night and White took a stupid penalty. I'd consider a wake up call to DD and White and send a shot across Patches' bow. Put Bourque in there. If Bourque doesn't hustle (which he won't), sit him the very next game and bring DD back. Keep doing that until they start working.

Parros is not a bad hockey player, you don't have to hide him. Murray is a bad hockey player...lol
