  • 💯 on all counts... And in regards to the role, I don't care if it's ATJ, or Daniel Day Lewis, they're going to test the actors, they're going to measure each actor against the others. Who else would invest 800 million to a billion dollars, ove…

  • @talos7 , I don’t think they do it covertly, but it’s also not something readily advertised. And not something the average fan would be searching for— although we aren’t average fans, are we?? @mtm I wouldn’t think so either, although the account…

  • @Creasy47 — good chance of Crosby choosing exactly that. And yeah, we let both Bunting and Hymann (who just scored his 50th last night), just go from the Leafs… we could have afforded to keep them (not both of them, but we could have afforded one…

  • @thedove … our Leafs are in tough. Boston or Florida, who’d you want to play against?? Either/or, damn hard first round. And I don’t think we can beat either won, not without some serious luck. I think it’s time for Shanahan to go(?). We can comp…

  • I’ll tell you what I think is happening: A script is being written, and Villeneuve will be attached as director, if it’s finished in a time that fits his schedule.
