NHL Transactions, Injuries & Rumours

typical hockey player:

Horachek on Polak: "(The puck) went right thru the whole cheek, inside + outside. Trainers didn't want him to come back.. 'I'm playing.'"

leafs were practicing at the rink i was coaching at this afternoon - his face still looks fuckin terrible.

also, phil was doggin it in every drill- i was dying laughing hahah. all the rumors are true. all my 9 and 10 year olds were watching and i told them not to be like phil

[The BBKL Insider]

All sounds about right in leaf land. Polak for captain

Looks like William Nylander has been recalled from MODO.

That's pretty cool. I didnt expect to see him this season. I'm not a leaf fan at all, but I am excited to see what Nylander can or can't do.

[Lee]

Lots of speculation he is going to the AHL

[The BBKL Insider]

Retarded

[thom54]

Leafs play game 43 tonight. Thereafter, Nylander can be on the roster for the rest of the year + not accrue a season

[Arian The Insider]

Lol... Why not just let him finish his great season at MoDo

[bills09]

Modo is a sinking ship.. Just fired the coach.
Nothing wrong with getting used to the North american ice on a marlies playoff run

Kyle Dubas tells HC @ Noon William Nylander will not be coming up to the Maple Leafs this season. Team must be patient with development.

[bills09]

Elc won't kick in while he's in the ahl as well

[Bruyns]

He was already playing with men and Modo was a terrible team this year so I like the move. It will also give him more time to get accustomed to N.A. ice.

and in the process maybe get a couple of concussions from some AHLer for life looking for attention

Lots of top prospects spend time in the AHL and how many are concussed from goons looking for attention?

[kyuss]

off the top of my mind, tbh I only remember Hampus L last season edit: it was 2 seasons ago

[Bruyns]

Definitely more goons than in Europe, but it's not really a concern since he will need to get used to a more physical style since I'm sure NHL D will be looking to manhandle him too.
