ParticipantBennett gets away with shooting Ekholms stick away. Of course.
It’s hard not to wonder what impact Corey Perry might have had on the Leafs had Dubas/Shanahan signed him all those years ago instead of Wayne Simmods. He is a p.o.s. too like Bennett and Marchand….but you need those players to win.
Our management has made so many errors in this era. ????

ParticipantLalonde definitely didn’t play a major role in Tampa’s success. He’s an interchangeable part. The architect of the Tampa mini-dynasty was Briesbois (and LTIR shenanigans) and the helmsman was always Cooper. I’ve been heavily plugged in to Tampa news forever and I can’t recall one thing Lalonde has done specifically.
Darche was a bigger loss for Tampa recently than Lalonde was.

ParticipantI didn’t like him in the playoffs on TV and I’m not sure he’s the right guy but I guess we will see. I know he was an Assistant coach in Tampa when they were a powerhouse but I feel like he got a lot of credit for someone else’s (Jon Cooper) work.
He wasn’t good in Detroit IMO.
This is terrible… I echo, Terrible coach, Terrible on TV..I actually got the feeling he hated the Leafs

~Cush29Holy shit. I thought you had gotten carried away with AI images again, but this is legit. Meh, another former head coach as an assistant to replace Lambert can’t be a horrible thing. Shoulda hired Pete DeBoer, but I’m sure they were well on their way to hiring Lalonde long before DeBoer was fired.

Participantwell, I hope Lalonde has good thing to say about the Leafs now.
Right? He did have some as the series went on but I felt like it was far outweighed by the negative. It’ll be interesting now to see if his great insight into all the things wrong are fixed since he now technically owns some of the responsibility of trying to fix them.

ParticipantI usually suck at Puckdoku unless it heavily involves one of my teams and/or teams from the East. I know almost nothing about players from old teams out west. But I saw your post and decided to give this one a shot.
I’m gonna go really really obscure for Tampa and try to hit 1% dudes…and maybe a few Leafs.
John Tucker – Brian Bradley – Freddie Modin
Paul Ysebaert – Pavel Datsyuk – Tomas Holmstrom
John Cullen – Shawn McEachern – Ryan MaloneOk, I did pretty f-ing good on this one, thanks to a lot of time spent playing EA sports NHL Hockey back in the 1990s. I’ve only filled the entire board a small handful of times.
Puckdoku Game 705 – 9/9????:
15 Uniqueness
????????????
????????????
????????????It’s pretty clear that most (if not all) of the “Best Games” are cheaters. Nobody, I mean NOBODY, remembers some of those players, less yet multiples on the same board. I call bullshit.
~PDO SpeedwagonThat is good. I tried . . . Andreychuk for Tampa, Draper for Detroit and Pierre Larouche for Pittsburgh.
In the other categories I did land on, I had:
Bradley- Prospal
Ciccarelli – Chelios
Stevens – MurphyAndreychuk was my first guess and it was wrong, so all the guesses I made after that I thought were pretty safe. I was surprised about Draper (who scored 4 twice) and I knew Larouche was a good goal scorer, but those Penguin teams weren’t very good, so I didn’t know how much playoff exposure he was getting – he did score 8 with the Rangers later.
