ParticipantWe might as well say that Pelly is calling the shots. He’s the real GM and President of Hockey Operations. Sundin is the face, to make it look legit. Chayka is the yes man that will do as he’s told and take it in the ass, when the failures begin to happen. It’s all about revenue. Why isn’t Berube gone? Because they want to save that $4M chump change. I bet that Domi hangs around because daddy is buddies with big Matts. More Rielly, more of the same losers on lines 3 and 4. Maccelli will do a cameo, showing up in garbage time to pad his stats. I don’t see them doing much because again, it’s about revenue and not competition. Do you remember the slogan? The Passion That Unites Us All? Just slogans, not action. I long for the days of an owner like Steve Stavros who actually was passionate about the team. Now it’s corporate bullshit….wall to Woll. Fuck them all!
p.s. I’m guessing that the Bruins will be happy campers after tonight. The tradition continues…the Leafs rebuild the Bruins….going on 40 years. Rask, Hamilton, Minten, Seguin and the 6th pick in the draft this year.
The Delusion That Blinds Them All.
The Leafs should have a 15 year block on any transactions with Boston.

Participantthats cool. but I dont want the Leafs GM making quick reactionary moves. Id also prefer he keep his real intentions quiet. showing your hand doesnt help.
you cleary take a lot a face value and like to react (over react), which is your brand. But most of whats said doesnt matter, I dont care. its the actions not the media snippets
His real intentions are to run it back, retool and not rebuild. His hand has already been shown through Pelley and his fabrication of a search for the best person to build a Cup winner.
And your brand is that of a homer. The actions will include seeing Rielly back again as the #1 D and Berube behind the bench which will make this team as bad as it was last year.

ParticipantHe’s supposed to say he will evaluate everybody at every position and then fire Rielly and Berube into the Sun the next day.
Chayka can’t be taken seriously if one second he is identifying clear and obvious problems with the defense and then the next second endorsing the two biggest sources of failure of the defense.

ParticipantI just hope Boston will not be picking 6th overall come June.
Maybe 7th or 8th but most likely not!.https://www.tankathon.com/nhl/pick_odds
Leafs have 8.5% at 1st, 8.6% chance at 2nd, 0.3% chance at 3rd, 0% chance at 4th, 24.5% chance at 5th, 44% chance at 6th and 14.2% chance at 7th.
58% chance Boston drafts 6th or 7th.

Participantits about time he finally started to show in the playoffs.
to bad he could do that here in Toronto.He had more career playoff points than everybody else on the team, including Matthews, Nylander and Tavares but oddly none of them get labeled as playoff busts. He showed up in Toronto. The rest of his team rarely did. Toronto was the problem.

Participantcomments about Berube and Rielly a few hours after they are introduced is not something I give a shit about, what else is he supposed to say at this point.
Nobody is going to toss the coach and longest serving player directly under the bus 5 mins after a press conf.anyway, it was mostly Pelley who made that awkward and uncomfortable. Chayka speaks well and did say a lot of the right things after. but none of it matters if they made bad moves.
its great he recognizes there is a problem with the leafs D and moving the puck up ice. thats a problem, but also the coach/system/style does not fit or work with this team. they got dummied all season, I hope thats addressed.He’s supposed to say he will evaluate everybody at every position and then fire Rielly and Berube into the Sun the next day.

ParticipantMarner with another goal and 2 points including shutting down the Ducks in the final minute. He did it all tonight. Earned every penny of that 12 million.
its about time he finally started to show in the playoffs.
