Ponikarovsky does suck. He makes stupid decisions, never hits and usually misses the net with his shots. Ian White plays tougher than Poni does, and is a good half foot shorter than him.
It's ok though, Burke won't put up with his pussfooting and he'll be released in the offseason.
This is just Xenophobic. Antropov is arguably our best forward, and probably is the closest to a "Canadian style" player on our team. Poni isn't as good but still plays the "Canadian style game", aka a high grinding/hitting and shooting game.
have you been watching the leaf games? poni and antropov are standing out as the ones making the most mistakes. for all the years they have been with the leafs they should be playing better. and if you watch antropov when hes play you will see hes lazy and always stops staking.
Are we talking about the same Antropov? Second in goals and points for the leafs last year Antropov? And hits? First in plus minus? Considered by many our best all around player last year? Led in forward shot blocks Antropov? Second in GWG for the leafs Antropov? Please. I can see a case for arguing against Poni, but Antropov was our arguably our best forward last year, Mats being the only one who you could say was better.
no dought he did well last year you know with all the competition he had...Sundin and thats about it. But when he is surronded with younger players his lazy play really shows.
If you're talking about the preseason, thats because his spot is guaranteed. No matter what, he's on the first line. Why risk injury? Other guys are trying to work their way up, or even onto the team. Kaberle and Kbuina have been lazy too, and so has Toskala. Does that mean the suck with youth? Absolutely not.
I'm off to bed, if you want to discuss this further I'll be back in these comments in the morning.
aw c'mon give him a break. He has 11 goals and 9 assists (20 points). tell me how that "sucks". Sure it was a bad play but it doesnt mean he sucks. He admitted that it was unacceptable and that he shoulda scored. Only a REAL man can stand up to his mistakes. I <3 Poni he is awesome haterz GIVE ME A BREAK! one bad play and he "sucks"??? seriously...
yea i no u never sed it but the guy below did and it ticks me off when ppl say that. they always look at the bad things that rarely happen to a player instead of the good things that come regularly. Poni is a good player and he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. If he sucked he wouldn't have come back with 9 stitches in his tongue and score 2 goals.
well toskala has to learn to stop a beach ball every once in a while....

You watch, he won't win a damn thing of consequence in this league, because he doesn't give his all.

keep poni off the ice at the ends of the game. he sucks so much
geikins 4 years ago
Yeah really. If a bad pass by Bell causes him to be put on the 4th line, how is Poni still playing there?

Awesome game. I couldn't believe the Leafs couldn't finish.
