NHL Team Records in B2B Games vs Tired Teams

@ Scotchy:
Burke definately knew what he was getting in Brown and he was exactly what we needed for the bottom 6.
It makes a lot of sense to me what Burke does. He normally trades for players that he’s very familiar with. Former players or people he’s scouted heavily to prior to wanting to draft them. Being so familiar with the player makes trading for him easy. The target player might not be the answer for first line centre, for example, but it’s a lot easier to know exactly what he’s worth to you in a trade. So you rarely give up something that isn’t worth the player you’re bring in. I don’t know that i said it very well, but it’s a lot better than what we all do on here speculating based on what we mostly assume players are worth because we’ve heard or seen little flashes of their careers.

well, best case scenario with the future in mind (hate replacing Gigure but…):
1. Reimer stays healthy and plays lights out
2. Gigure decides surgery is in his best interest now (based on his feeling that the Monster is ready to back up Reimer)
3. Reimer gets pulled after the first ten minutes of an upcoming game in which we’re up 1 – 0 because his contact lense has popped out
4. Monster comes in, stops 34 shots and stands on his head to earn the shared shutout
5. We hear that Reimer could have returned but didn’t have to and was given the opportunity to rest based on the Monster’s awesome play
6. Monster starts one more game because there’s a renewed belief in him, and to allow Reimer a rest before the playoffs begin … the results of the Monster’s play in that game don’t have any bearing on the standings since we’ve clinched a spot already … still, he gets the shutout
7. Going into summer the Leafs are giddy having 2 young goalies battling for the top spot, with 2 more in the wings hoping to move up the chart themselves
