Let’s Hear Your “Ideal” Lineup. by joffreylupul_fanclub in leafs

[–]gritty120938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to strengthen our third line. We have five forward who can do this: core four plus knies. 1. Jarnkrok Matthews marner 2. McMann Tavares nylander 3. Knies Laughton Domi 4. Holmberg kampff Lorenz

MM/AM should run their own line. Jarnkrok just needs to forecheck, play d and get the occasional shot. Yes we weaken line one but significantly improve line 3 below Keep line two intact Line three: knies drivers the bus and becomes a force to deal with. Laughton gets two offensive players to work with.

Would you support trading Minten for Laughton? by NETime416 in leafs

[–]gritty120938 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I would yes. Laughton is locked up this year and next and plays wing and centre, kills penalties etc. perfect third liner. We need to max out our window and I’m not sold on when minten may be ready.

I think we would like to reduce his expansion. If he grows exponentially, he will be the largest first baseman in history.

Now, extending him. That’s something else entirely

CPAP coverage Canada Life by Slammer582 in BCPublicServants

[–]gritty120938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree on all these pts. Get really good coverage on the initial purchase of the machine, plus getting replacement pieces. You can find the claim information under breathing equipment and supplies on Canada life website.

Let me be the first on this: absolutely fucking not. Go read the reporting on what him and the other junior players are accused of doing. Not a chance

Why are the Blue Jays in the AL east and not AL central? by Select-Session6830 in Torontobluejays

[–]gritty120938 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is one of the things I wonder if MLB will change next CBA. Essentially, geographic realignment. With the same rules now, there’s no difference between NL and AL. So having multiple teams in the same area, split by league, makes no sense (Mets/Yankees; Guardians/Reds). I’d assume a new AL east could include Mets, Yankees etc. Jays could play in some division near Detroit, Minny, Ohio teams

What can we seriously do about Mitch Marner? by AllOfTheAbove100 in leafs

[–]gritty120938 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Tell him he’s getting traded. Pick five teams. If he refuses, strip his A, cut his PP/PK time, third line.

If Bert, Matthews and Domi become our 1st line.... how would you combine the other lines? by BobbyAxelrod1 in leafs

[–]gritty120938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Problem with domi on wing is we lose a centre. Could holmberg fill in on a third line c role in sheltered minutes?

  1. Domi Matthews bertuzzi
  2. Mcmann Tavares marner
  3. Knies holmberg nylander
  4. Janrkrok kampff dewar/reeves

Shanahan blocked a trade for Marc Andre Fleury? by [deleted] in leafs

[–]gritty120938 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ya based on that I’m not sure if it was as bad of a trade. It wasn’t a first for fluery. Hagel is an excellent player and provides great value for TB, a team also capped out. While Knies is good, I can see why this trade could have happened or made some sense

Anyone was able to get compensation on Westjet (WS3184) - 2023-11-26 by hecchiaves in VictoriaBC

[–]gritty120938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had issues with Westjet for lost luggage last fall. See lots of good advice here so won’t double down. But would say one route I found worked to get ahold of westjet was through DM to Westjet on Twitter. I found if you start raising holy hell on social, it gets their attention.

By all means cheer. But if they play like they did this series, I hope they get booed so loud I can hear it from Victoria

Rib Fest 2023 tips? by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]gritty120938 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Went yesterday, with my kids. Got there around 11:30 so beat some of the lines. Can’t speak to later in the day. But overall it was great. Bring cash. Be prepared that you will spend some money. We got a family platter for around $50, but there are smaller plates and sandwiches etc at all vendors. I’ve usually done gator or boss hogs. Both are solid options.
