    Looking at the Leafs schedule, they’ve played more than every other team. Many of their remaining games are on the road against teams close to them, in the overall standings. Lose a few key games, and they’re there! I just don’t want a Glory Run when it means nothing. I see a lot of love for Maccelli. Where was his production when the team could have used it? It doesn’t mean much during garbage time. Hopefully, they don’t qualify him because he’s just a filler on the wing. I wouldn’t mind the Leafs resigning Laughton, at the end of the season. First, let LA make the playoffs and turn the third into to a second, then just wait for them to lose in round 1. No thanks to McMann. He’ll be the next David Clarkson for the team that signs him.

    I hope the Leafs don’t go on another Glory Run and kill an opportunity for a top 5 pick. You have to know that the Leafs will get down to 5th from the bottom and someone above them wins the draft lottery and pushes them to 6th. Boston gets to pick and they get a player that plays in their top 6 for 15 to 20 years. Sound familiar? They should just tie the can to Treliving and get their new Management team together and allows them to look at this piece of sh!t roster.

    The time to plan a tank was 4 months ago. They can’t expect to tank with so few games left in the season with two healthy starting goalies. The Leafs getting a top 5 pick is a pipe dream at this point. They’re better off winning 10 games and just guaranteeing that Boston gets a bad pick.

    Also, getting a top 5 pick this year won’t fix this team. In fact, it makes it easier for this idiot management group to “go for it” again next year built on false hope.

    They need to wash this year and next year, trade Matthews at the 2027 draft, tank in 2028 and tank in 2029.

    Rebuild. Properly.

    And I totally know what 23BigIQ means

    Yeah, we know, when you’ve been exposed as the totally retarded moron that you are, you switch names and pretend to be somebody else. Nothing new. Same retard that’s been getting wrecked and pretending to be somebody new.

    Carry on Retard Ranger.

    Nobody cares what I would do because I’m a total fucking retard.

    We know that UG is the biggest fucking retard here – daily.

    Oh how clever you took a post quote and changed it what a rebel you are? Like nobody else can do that, oh no – look someone has figured out how to copy your super stealthy methods!

    And I have no idea what 23BigIQ means but it sure feels like more of the same retarded room temperature IQ, never played a lick of hockey in your life, was the punching bag in high school, living in your mom’s basement bullshit from you so not surprising.

    Carry on jerkoff, maybe one day Mitchy will answer one of your 100000 “Dear Stan” type of letters you clown.

    To the normal Leaf fans in here – that lack of response to your captain’s knee being targeted by that piece of shit Gudas is sickening.

    That being said I read something interesting – if that had happened to a Leaf player (say Nylander or Reilly since both wear an “A” and were on the ice and did nothing in response) do you honestly think Auston Matthews would have done anything to defend either of them?

    The reality is no he wouldn’t, he’s proven 99 times out of 100 he’s not that guy and as such probably shouldn’t be the Captain.

    Feels like it won’t be an issue in the next season or 2 anyway when he likely leaves to go somewhere else and not be the Captain and can just focus on scoring.

    I would Fire Tre/Burube at the end of the Season, let a New GM try and do an on the fly retool for 26-27, see how it goes. There is not point tanking next season.
    If its another tire fire, then look at trading Auston at the TDL or off season and go full scorched. AM will still have 1 full season left with his new team

    The real firing that needs to happen but won’t is Pelley. If that idiot is still in charge, nothing below him will improve, even if they shuffle the chairs on the Titanic.

    You’re right, they can’t tank next season but they can still make it clear they plan to rebuild for 2028.

    Make zero trades that cost picks or prospects. Only sign UFAs that you plan to trade at the TDL. Start asking for lists of teams from all players for their next destination.

    I would actually keep Berube but fire Treliving. If you keep Berube, the pressure shifts to the players rather than blaming the coach (again) for the failures of the team. That pressure helps guarantee the players waive and get traded. If the Leafs fire Berube and hire a DeBoer or Laviolette, there could be a mirage of success where they become a wild card pretender.
