Thread: Paper Waivers and Barabanov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheLeafsSeason</b></div><div>Barabanov would be lucky to make the Leafs bottom 6 with the internal competition there is now after adding Boyd and Vesey, and still having main pieces on the roster like Engvall and Robertson while Mikheyev is taking a roster spot. We have no idea who Barabanov is or how he plays. Playing him immediately on the third line would be calling for failure</div></div>

You may not have any idea who Barabanov is, but there are some that have watched him plenty. He's a good (not stunning) player and I'm confident he will play in atleast half the games this season, just due to the fact of how much depth we have. He is no slouch and that 3rd line with Ilya and Kerfoot might be one of the best 3rd lines...

Thread: Habs w Caufield
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RobbStark03</b></div><div>Deep at center, deep at LW, decent at RW, deep at RD, one of the best goalies in the world. Caufield's shot could single handedly make Habs PP not a laughing stock of the NHL. They are a playoff team.</div></div>

Uhh.. I'm not sure what team you're looking at to call them deep in all those positions, but I am looking at the Canadiens roster here, and they are not deep in any position at all. They have 1-2 solid D, a few good forwards, and 1 stud goalie. An awful team? No. But calling them deep at C, with Danault, KK, and Poehling as their top 3 isn't necessarily ideal. Look at the division they're in, compare this to Stamkos, Point, Johnson. Then, Matthews, Tavares, Kerfoot. Bergeron, Krejci, Coyle. Heck, even Barkov, Trochek, Borgstrom. Again, are they bad? No. But to say they're deep at some of the positions you mentions, when comparing them to their division (let alone the entire league) is a bit ridiculous...
