    so McMann is “suspended from further competition until the commissioner has ruled on the issue.“ His hearing is on Tuesday for high-sticking

    So hearing today and what do we think – most teams fine but it’s the Leafs so 5 games? lol

    You may very well be right about WOLL but I think he’s too young to give up on at this point and the last thing you want is to do so and watch him go and flourish elsewhere. I’ll hope for a healthy Stollie / Woll combo or a Hidaby / Woll or Stollie combo – I mean what else can you do right now?

    Oh Im not suggesting to give up on him (trade him etc), I just dont think with everyone healthy, he’s a reliable 1B option. Unless he turns his health around, I think the leafs have to plan for him to be a back up.

    Also, is it me…or do the leafs have a problem keeping goalies healthy? Andersen, Campbell, Samsonov, murray, woll

    Andersen has proven to be unable to stay healthy even after leaving Toronto, Soupy not sure if it was the Leafs or him because he fell from grace pretty quickly in Edmonton, Sammy was hurt often for sure here, Murray was a coming back from surgery gamble here wasn’t he so hard to pin that on the Leafs, Woll 100% though and Toronto has (reportedly) one of the best if not the best medical team in the league. Maybe it’s a combo of overuse of goalies who are starters combined with the way the Leafs allow opponents to take advantage of an ability to crash/run the goalies more than many teams (by appearance)? I mean it’s been that way for a long time here, think Reimer getting more than one conky due to it and it just feels like it’s that way in Toronto.

    You just wouldn’t get away with what many teams do vs Toronto and the goalie in most other places, hell in some you would fear for your life like Tampa.

    It’s cultural and just being too soft as a team. One or 2 guys can’t be the ones to always protect the goalie, rookie or superstar it has to be everyone.

    I hate Tampa (hell and the Bruins) but I have always been envious of their dog pack mentality when they feel they were wronged or their player was run etc. Florida has that now – when did Toronto last have it? Christ JT was the guy dishing out the punishment last night when he felt someone took an extra whack at Hildby – JT…..

    Hildebeast has been a pleasant surprise for me. Last year, he just didn’t have it. But this year, he’s like a new guy. Made quite the leap. Crazy to finally have a team with great goalie depth, I don’t ever remember a time like that. Now, if they could just stay healthy…

    Saw an interesting note on X, Hildeby won’t be waiver exempt next season, so one of the three is likely to be moved.

    Almost seems like a good plan to dangle one in front of Edmonton for a killing.

    Still no news on McMann’s fate eh?

    Was googling it and stumbled across this nasty high stick from Trouba 2 years ago – he got a 5K fine for it by the way.

    I’m sure they won’t use it as a comparison to try and be consistent, but they should.

    Dakota Mermis was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday while the team recalled fellow blue-liner Henry Thrun.

    Man, we have a lot of American players these days.

    Well even tho the max bonus is 60% now it’s still a pretty notable difference for them to get that while they’re living in the states on July 1st at a lower taxation.

    For instance, Matthews next contract will be a lot higher because he won’t be able to just make league minimum in Toronto anymore while getting the rest as a bonus.

    I’m old enough to remember when people were shitting all over the Laughton deal and I told them to give him a little time. Now he’s fitting like a magnum condom on the 12″ veiny dildo that UG and Eggs Benny share.

    First of all, we use a strap on and I’m the pitcher he’s the catcher.

    Second, rather than continuing to refer to us separately, please start using our preferred term: The Scissor Sisters.

    Leafs 4-1 in last 5 games.

    Nylander 0G 1A in last 5 games.

    When he stops fucking around being Melander, the Leafs have more success.

    Shocking. Who woulda thunk? 🤔

    Leafs just had a road trip where they went 4-2-0 against some real good Eastern Conference competition, and now their rookie goalie posts a shutout against a very good Tbay team.

    Called it! Also, some folks here have trouble using the quote/reply function eh?!

    Thoughts: how many of AA alts will show up here tonight and will he once again have full blown conversations with each of them all?

    Maybe he’ll challenge himself to a fight and lose. What a tool
