New season about to start, time for a new topic thread. The other had other a 100 pages…thats enough.
Big Jays game tonight
Leafs home opener tomorrow.Im thinking 92 pts for the buds this season.
Big ?s for the year:
* How does a healthy Matthews perform?
* Who do Leafs pick up as top 6 addition?
* Does Nylander take another step?
* Does Knies?
* Does D stay healthy?
* Does Cowan push out a more expensive forward?
* Can we stop talking about Marner? -

* Does Cowan push out a more expensive forward?
* Can we stop talking about Marner?1: I assume he will, he’s looking healthy again
2: depends which team has a shit season I guess
3: he’s capable, are his linemates?
4: hopefully Domi shoots enough so Knies can bang them home
5: he’ll get some NHL time, how much is my ?
6: depends on who is posting lol -
I read that Chief is trying Domi 3C. I am not a fan of that – Domi not good enough d-side of the puck for that role (he definitely has the speed though). Leafs should also want him rolling with Matthews right from jump – so start Game 1.
Also the fact it’s Laughton out so just replace the 4C slot and don’t disrupt the flow. Jarnkrok may not be ideal but he is a centre as well as wing. He has played in the league long enough and taken enough reps to be fine when insulated on a 4th with 4th minutes. Especially a Berube system of simple straight line hockey for that line…and Lorentz and Blais forechecking with pace Jarnkrok is responsible to play low & dots in the dzone.
Knies-Matthews-Domi
McMann-Tavares-Nylander
Joshua-Roy-Maccelli
Lorentz-Jarnkrok-BlaisRielly-Carlo
McCabe-Tanev
Benoit-OELStolarz
PrimeauI hope for the Buds McMann uses his frame this year. I personally am not a fan and I know I may catch heat here – but I’d not have him dressed over Robertson. McMann is probably a tick better defensively but Robertson (though not crushing) seems to play a chippier disturber game at times – this team needs anyone playing that can cause some chaos out there and drag everyone to greasiness shift by shift.

I agree with the Leafs prediction. But they need to win a lot of divisional games. With teams like MTL, OTT, FLA looking to tear a strip off them every game, I think they’ll get bogged down during the long season. If they have any major injuries (Tanev/Stolarz/Matthews/Tavares) for any extended amount of time, I think they’ll miss the playoffs.
If BOS/DET/BUF have a resurgence and are pushing for a playoff spot, it’ll only be more difficult.
Go Jays!

He’s already a Marlie. I doubt we see him until Laughton is back. Treliving sent him down as soon as he practiced in a grey jersey.

Unless someone who is filling in performs well in the interim.That or Treliving is trying to sell some players and is essentially forcing his coach to play them.

The Leafs already had too many forwards, now they added Sammy Blais. Cowan is way down the list.
The Leafs still need another RHD and need a back-up because without Woll, the Leafs are one very likely Stolarz injury away from missing the playoffs.

Now that the dust has settled, here is Toronto’s projected cap-compliant roster to start 2025-26:
Knies – Matthews – Maccelli
McMann – Tavares – Nylander
Joshua – Domi – Robertson
Lorentz – Roy – Järnkrok
Extras: Quillan, Blais
IR: LaughtonRielly – Carlo
McCabe – Tanev
Ekman-Larsson – Benoit
Extra: MyersStolarz
Primeau
Non-roster: Woll -

Non-roster: WollThat 3rd line looks just brutal under Berube’s style of hockey, a couple of midgets with a big winger on a recovery season. Here’s hoping Robertson keeps scoring since his linemates will pass to him basically non stop very predictably *shakes head*
As for Cowan, it’s the right call. If all he will be for the leafs is a 12/13th type guy put him on the Marlies. Only make him a leaf if he’s a full time top 12 guy at the VERY bare minimum.

Absolutely don’t like this line-up at all.
1st line isn’t dangerous enough. 2nd line is a defensive mess. 3rd line is small, not tough or strong enough to be a shut down line. Roy is getting paid A LOT to be a 4th liner when he was supposed to be the new shut down 3C.
When Laughton returns, Quillan or Blais go down and one of Robertson or Jarnkrok goes to the press box. Cowan belongs with the Marlies for now.
-
How come when I say it I’m a troll?
The Leafs are taking a MASSIVE step back this year.
And their top players are injury prone.
The Leafs weren’t good enough last season to win a cup, they definitely aren’t now.
No prospects, no future. No plan, no track record of success. Total clusterf*ck.
I’ve been saying for a couple years that they’re going down the wrong path. Before Bennett is the established winner and warrior he is now I was screaming from the rooftops to trade for him. I hated the Kadri trade and been saying since he left they need to get him back. Nylander isn’t the type of player you pin your hopes on, but for whatever reason the Leafs did that. They lost their best player this summer and replaced him with *checks notes* Maccelli?!? Insane.
Anyways. You’s got what you all wanted, and now you’ll all just have to accept being the laughing stock of the league until they draft 1st overall again in 8-10 years and restart the process all over again.
The next window is in 15-20 years. Have fun with that.

When it comes to the 1st line Matthews looked good this preseason. If he truly was hurt last season and is back to being more like he was he’ll be dangerous. As for his linemates so long as Knies keeps moving forward I do think that line will be fine.
Second line… Nylander is the offensive weapon, JT does have offensive talent just no speed so let him lean towards the offensive side of the neutral zone. This will work so long as McMann can play a very strong two way game and there is a VERY big question mark when it comes to that.
That 3rd line sucks defensively, I sincerely hope this is for nothing more than to sell Robertson. Line him up with a couple passers, let him score a few times in the first 10 games and get the best return they can for him.
Line 4, an over priced C who hopefully gets bumped back up to where he belongs when Laughton is back, I like Lorentz as well, I’m hoping they either sell off Järnkrok for something decent once Blais gets to know Berube’s Leaf game better. At least they’re still better than the current line 3 though.

Heard some cool Roger Nielsen stories about how he was always finding loopholes in the rules when coaching the Pete’s.
* Rules said you could never have fewer than 3 players on the ice. If he was facing 5 on 3 he would keep putting an extra player on the ice and drawing another penalty. It would put another player in the box but stay 5 on 3. This way he could keep disrupting the power play and run out the clock.
* when he pulled the goalie for extra attacker he’d have goalie lay his stick across the net before he left.
+ when facing a penalty shot, he put out a defence man instead of goalie to disrupt the shot.
AHL and NHL changed the rules so he couldn’t do these things

The solution is this:
Joshua | Matthews | Nylander
Knies | Tavares | Domi
McMann | Roy | Maccelli
Lorentz | Jarnkrok | RobertsonSo long as Matthews doesn’t mind being the passer of his line and not the shooter (he can do both), and Knies would have to do more physical board work and let JT still park his ass in front of the net. Minor tweaks but if those two guys made those adjustments I could see that working.

The solution is this:
Joshua | Matthews | Nylander
Knies | Tavares | Domi
McMann | Roy | Maccelli
Lorentz | Jarnkrok | RobertsonI actually really like this. I’m sure Chief will figure out a lineup that works better than what it looks like at the moment.

Still no bargains, but start checking around 3 pm.
I’m sure a lot of people will refinance their home to afford it closer to puck drop.

Cowan back up
Cowan’s our backup goalie now?
Bold move.
How ya been, Cupsie?
I think Cowan plays somewhere other than in net in the first few games
Life is good here with my hippie brethren. This is a cool, relaxed and beautiful spot. Summer was glorious. Funny to see grass turning green in the fall now that there’s actually rain.How’s the smoke? You watching Jays or Leafs tonight?

Good luck Leafs fans.
I’ll let you how I feel about jumping ship a little later on. I’m sure there will be mixed emotions.
I just can’t continue to do this year after year. I want to experience watching hockey knowing my team has a chance to win. Not saying the Leafs were never good enough, but I honestly think the NHL is rigged against Canadian teams, lol.
Go Vegas! (I almost threw up)🤮

Domi does not belong at center, he’s a winger on the Matthews line.
Which would put Jarnkrok in the middle on the 4th line and I bet that’s what Berube hates.

As you guys know, I declared I have jumped ship (I used one of my 7 alts). That said, I have also relentlessly made fun of everyone for coming here and jumping ship from the buzz. I used terms like cowards, traitors and a host of other immature terms. I vehemently stated that I would no longer be a leafs fan without Marner, and I will be a man of my word.
However, should I come back at this point, it is for one purpose: I want to troll and piss off people, with the hopes they stop posting all together. Come to think of it, I most likely will be doing this…I do love being the hockeybuzz was destroyed and am proud of the work I’m doing on this one.
So, I will see you all later. Lmao

I hope all games start at 8pm ish EST.Yeah I know what you mean. It’s one of the very few times I’m happy to be an epileptic who isn’t allowed to work lol. Just had a titanium vagus nerve stimulator put in so that finally might be changing (as stupid as this sounds but good because man I miss working, last official job was 2019) but not til roughly January at best. So my biggest trick for late games is to sit in the harder chair in the livingroom and not our cozy skylar peppler couch where I’d likely pass out, man, that thing is preferable over my bed sometimes, didn’t make it past the second intermission of the Oilers/Flames game last night before saying “fuck it” and going to bed lol.

As expected, that didnt take long.
Play him on the top line on Saturday -

This is perfect! It’s us a clear cut political based post. So this feedback using my username should now be banned correct?
Please start this process. It’s the same moron using CC and Cush, so slowly you can shut AA out of this site for good and make it a better place free of pathetic ball-less deaf folks.

It was obviously a joke dmented, I literally saw that posted on X. Thought it was so outrageous that it would be taken as such. But no, Galactic Stone, mad about his Alt name “being stolen” has to cry about it and scream for moderators and bans like he has been doing for years. Sad.

Too early in the year to make determinations. Talk to me on U.S. Thanksgiving and I’ll have a better idea on what and where this team is going.
It’s only been two games but the fatal flaws are easy to see with this team already.
They will be a playoff team unless disaster strikes but they don’t look anywhere near good enough to beat Florida or go deep in the playoffs.
Without Woll, Stolarz is exposed having never played more than 34 games. The PP is horrid. They don’t control most of the play. And they aren’t nearly intimidating enough for team that was supposed to be bigger, stronger, tougher and meaner.
They don’t have a #1 D they can rely on to shut down top players or take over a game offensively like a Makar either. The D is long in the tooth and not enough true RHD.
Injuries are already piling up, putting players out of position and scrambling to find replacements.

Easton Cowan on the 1st line at practice yesterday. Getting a whiff of desperation from the Leafs two games in.
I’m kind of emotionally checked out. This team should have changed tack years ago.
The ship has sailed on this core group imo.
2 games in and you have doomed already for failure.
We all have high expectation for our beloved Leafs.
And why not try Cowan with Matthews? Cause he’s a rookie? Ah come on eh!!!!You need a Zezel post to get to beleafs again. Ha HA!!

I have little faith in this team’s ability to beat Florida, or even Tampa Bay, in the playoffs and make a deep run.
The regular season is a giant pile of meh because we all know, barring disaster, they will make the playoffs.
This core will be blown up within 3 years and the next rebuild will begin. Cowan will be like our Kadri from the last rebuild.
-
Do you really have “high expectations” though? I don’t see it. I see a good team that is not good enough to beat the best teams in a long series.
This is exactly correct. The BeLeafers have high expectations because we have Matthews. But their high expectations are unjustified.

Crazy how far the Leafs have fallen.
If they don’t win today I think that’s it. It’s confirmed they’re not a favourite to make the playoffs. If that’s the case then just blow it up.

Watching Nylander sit in Milan saying shit like “eventually it has to happen” in regards to winning a Cup is such a joke. No William, the Stanley Cup isn’t a participation award. You don’t win it just because it’s your turn. Maybe instead of sipping on a Negroni in Milan, you should spend more time working your ass off in the gym and training to actually earn a Stanley Cup instead of thinking it’s just going to fall into your lap one day because it’s “about time”.
It would be really interesting to see what the Leafs could get for Nylander, Matthews, Rielly etc. and just blow the team apart. It could certainly fast track a rebuild if the Leafs could acquire half a dozen top tier prospects and/or 1st round picks. Unfortunately, until they have their own 1st round pick, blowing up the team and tanking isn’t an option. But they can go back to tanking in 2028 and if the return on Matthews + Nylander etc. is big enough, they could have a completely different base of players under the age of 25 (including retaining Knies and Cowan).

People hate you (and me) because we say things nobody wants to hear, and generally we are correct.
Nylander is a joke. “Oh silly Willy, he’s such a little goofball, tee-hee-hee!”
No, Willy is a self absorbed spoiled little shit who doesn’t understand what it takes to win. He’s not a team player. He doesn’t think he has to change or get better.
The Leafs are so cooked. They’re done. It’s going to be so hard for Leafs fans (not me anymore) to watch MTL and OTT dominate them for the next 15 years.

So now you’re angry about Nylander in Milan over the summer? LOL Anything to whine eh?
As predicted, it didnt take for leafs to recall Cowan. How long he stays…we’ll see. -

No hate at all, agree with him on most of the issues.

Three games in and Chief is already sick of Willy’s shit.
Incredible stuff.
They already fucked up royally by letting Marner leave, but they can still trade Nylander. They can still salvage their season (and potential window) if they move him. They need someone with leadership, and plays with heart. A Dylan Larkin type.

Ah come on AA, we ALL know he was leaving and DID not want to resign with the Leafs.
No point about crying about spilled milk now. -
Go Leafs Go!
I second this 👍

No point about crying about spilled milk now.His 2P in game 1 of 3 so far this year would have truly changed things for the leafs no? lol
The leafs hit a hot goalie, goals per shots was still at 0.08% when the average for a winner is roughly 0.095%.
Let’s see how they do tonight, anyone losing their shit already are no different than people who cum too fast during sex just to severely disappoint their significant other.

I think they could’ve done a lot more to convince him to stay. But they kinda played stupid when the fans were being inappropriate towards him. They just let the narrative become anti-Mitch.
Anyways. Like you said, it’s done and over with. Now if the Leafs don’t have a successful year that pressure will be on Matthews.

Hey moron:
People hate you because you’re a tiny weak little deaf retarded who is obsessed with users on a hockey site. You are fucktard, a wimpy little snowflake who hates his imaginary best buddy decided he didn’t want to resign.
Like your last post. How the fuck do you know what Willy is like. I don’t like the way he plays the game. Not my style. Same with Mitch same with Matthews and effectively the high end talent – that’s the buds fatal flaw – all those high end talent plays same style game. That’s not a good recipe. But I listen to what the 3 coaches (4 including AHL) and GM says about him – he is intense and takes his craft serious. I still think he plays a lazy brand of puck (as does Berube) but to go on about his personality as if you know is stupid. You are stupid. No pro player ‘doesn’t care or doesn’t try’. He just cheats some games. That’s not a lack of intensity or ‘care’ – it’s just not playing into a system, which most coaches don’t like but happens often.
UG finally stopped (almost started again) being a know it all douche (for most part) and you are trying to get him on your weirdo creeper team….at least he puts thought into his hockey talk. You just talk about Willy vs. Mitchy like those fucking teens and their team vampire vs werewolf tv shows and movies. You absolutely destroyed the hockeybuzz and then came here stole usernames and created 7 others and are running this one into the ground. There is a reason when you look around you are alone. You are an unlikable
All that though and still I ask – how many fucking games or pro hockey did you ever play? Guys like you who were never-has-beens always have the opinions they think are facts. You know fuck all.
The only fact is you are a pussy.

Got the Vegas Calgary game on now, 1st intermission, 2-0 Flames, I’m kind of loving it lol
You love how it ended too with Marner getting two more assists?

Yup, he’s on pace for 82 points now due to his game against the flames lol[/quote]
As everyone and their mom said, Marner will get his reg season points and points in games 1 – 4 in a playoff series. But disappear after that.
Not sure why some are still trying to brag about a couple of assist here or there.

He’s a good player but some people seem to think he’s on par with guys like Lemieux/Gretzky/Crosby/Sakic/Jagr etc and no he is not.

Hey peeps:
If you are looking to take in a Leafs game, tomorrow night is the one to target.
There’s still a jillion tickets for sale, and if the Jays win tonight, it’s going to be an even better buyers’ market.
As always, wait until 6 pm on game day, then pounce.
Expecting a lot more people to be focused on the Jays tomorrow if they make the series 2-1?

Just judging by clothing on the street, the Jays still hold a lot of attention. I saw a lot of Jays hats on my way to work this morning.
I think a large portion of Jays fans are bandwaggoners (myself included these past few years). If they win tonight, the hype and hope will ramp back up.

I give Toronto teams as much hope as they earn and deserve. It’s their fault, not mine, that they usually fall short.
Jays left their bullpen in shambles. This is what they get. They relied on their offense (like the Leafs) to win them games. If they score 13 runs a game, they win. If they don’t, they lose.

A lot of people wearing Jays stuff in London still too. I’m looking forward to the game tonight as well, glad it’s still around 8, my couch is too damn cozy for a late start lol

Then sit back and do nothing more than cheer for a fired up lineup then.
Just concentrate on the positive stuff for once and ignore the negative. Everything in life has both and it’s your focus that defines what affects you the most.

Jays still a good team and a good season, comparing to the last 10 years.
So I am positive, but there are few teams better than Jays and not much can be done about that.
Will keep watching and rooting for Jays, but I am not trying to fool myself and expect something not realistic.I never guarantee myself anything, not a positive outcome but not a negative one either. Just sit back, root them on, and hope for the best. They’ll win some and they’ll lose some.

THere was no chance I was switching from Jays game to watch the leafs (outside of some commercials)
But I see Stolie had himself a game.
My gawd the Rangers are horrible. Leafs start the year with an easy schedule, good to see them getting their points.
Keep it going. -

Pretty much the reason that I don’t come here more often. It’s a shame, it’s always fun to shoot the shit with the boys, but then there are some guys that ruin it for everybody.

Filip Forsberg (some percentage retained)Discuss.
Forsberg would be a nice add, but that feels steep.
Leafs top 2 prospects plus a 1st. Id pass, wait for a better deal -

Not sure if there is any truth to this rumor at all, I just thought it was interesting. I do think Tre is trying to cook up something along these lines.

That was less than ideal. I don’t ever want to see Little pitch again.
Too bad they didn’t score 13 runs or have a reliable bullpen, then maybe you wouldn’t look like a dumbass right now.

They’re sitting Jarnkrok and continuing to play Robertson tonight?
Sigh, I hope this is because they are close to trading that little midget soon.
Jarnkrok is not a good playoff player and should be traded but benching him after his early season effort is just stupid considering the other pylons they could take out of the line-up, Robertson included.

I’m not worshipping Jarnkrok at all, but he’s had a nice strong start to the season essentially on what? 10-12 mins a game?
I get why it was him, the 4th line position for Lorentz, but I would have liked to see Robertson cut and Jarnkrok put there.
As I said, I’m hoping it’s just because they’re on the cusp of moving the midget.

Been traveling so haven’t watched any games this week, but I’m ok with them cycling bodies in and out this early in the season. We have a lot of NHLers on this roster and they all need to play.

So Stolarz sick of that and you sick of Nylander proving you wrong. Nylander was leading the league in points after Leaf’s game last night
Nylander has been playing like shit for most of this young season to the point where Berube called him out. His defense is horrible and cost them the game in OT. He won’t be leading the league in scoring for very long and his offense always comes at a cost. The cost is lazy play, defensive ineptitude and zero physical play.
Nylander did nothing to stand up for his team. Same can be said for Carlo, a big fucking pylon.
This DNA change has not actually happened.

We ALL know Nylander IS NOT a physical player. So why whine about it?!
Because some people have to constantly whine….about everything.

Dammit, Vladdy wore a Matthews jersey into the stadium today. Never wear or mention anything leafs related on a game 7 day.
Hopefully it doesnt ruin his mojo.LOL
Guaranteed cursed with that jersey on.
Guess his 500 million didn’t clear yet, couldn’t even get one with a C on it.

He played a great game last night, I’m hoping the Mariners have a better game tonight and pull it off, finally playing in a World Series.

The “team of destiny” seems to be Seattle but no matter who wins, the Dodgers are going to win the World Series. They’re stacked and basically unstoppable.

Yeah, they Dodgers are an absolutely STACKED team, this is going to be a very tall task. But, we’re playing with house money at this point, and if there ever were a team that could clutch up and beat this Dodger team, it’s the Jays!!! LET’S GO BLUE JAYS!!!

Marner, 2 more assists, beat the Hurricanes 4-1 with their top goalie injured, Vegas #1 team in the NHL, off to a white hot start.
Why are we still talking about the player that didn’t want to be in Toronto, and couldn’t handle the pressure of it?
BTW, Willy has more points in less games, but that doesn’t fit your narrative.

UG does hold Nylander to high standards cause he like him. Just like how he like Marner with those same standards. 👍
-
Even strength numbers not too bad for Leafers. 15GF 12GA. Better offensively then I expected so far.
PP needs to pick it up. 2/14 with a shorty against sucks. Last in PP opportunities per game ..and second last in PP results (next to the Oilers? WTF).
The PP started the same way last year, then, they picked it up.
time to pickup the PP with Keefe in town.

On another site I started chatting on a bit I saw a knights fan mention how he likes Marner because he’s a lot like Marchessault, the position that Marner has essentially taken over which has been a gap since Marchessault left for Nashville. I didn’t say anything because why would I but I looked some stuff up, yup, Marner is 0.3PPG more (averaging about an extra 25P) but he also costs $6.5 million more a year lol.
I get it now though, Marchessault is essentially JT’s age but it still made me smile. Vegas fans are already associating Marner to a 2nd line winger that cost half his price, they don’t do it out of anger, but they don’t think much of his game other than his offensive skill set.

Marner will be a good/important player on a team where all the focus isn’t on a group of four players to sink or die with. Vegas epitomizes a deep, balanced, big, heavy, experienced, team where everyone is a contributor and their systems play is more important than being carried by a small group of players. Just my outside opinion looking in.

Listen I will happily give Marner the credit he deserves. He’s a fantastic passer, he’s great defensively, and he reads the ice really really well. I live in London so I remember him in the OHL playing for The Knights. His speed and shot are decent but not great but nothing to frown against either. The only thing I never really liked about him is that he emotionally broke down routinely. So for him I think not playing hockey in southern Ontario is the best move since it’s non stop attention from the media and fanbase here. Look at the broadcast this past Saturday night, the next game had started yet they still were focused on the leafs drama during the intermissions, it’s absurd. Some players have no interest to play for a Canadian team, especially Toronto, for this kind of reason.
I mean look at this. If Marner was bumped down to the second line in Toronto the media and fanbase would explode even if it was a perfect fit (his production has shot up since it has happened) whereas in Vegas they speak positively about it. Some players just don’t have the mental ability to handle the crazy Toronto atmosphere and wouldn’t be shocked if Marner is one of them.
Be careful saying this for instance… congrats to JT for becoming just the 4th player in history to get to 500P for 2 different teams however it’s a pretty safe bet Marner is going to make that list now too. (Waits for arguments against that point of view lol)

Yeah, I fully get the intense media in Toronto when it comes to the Leafs. If you’re mentally weak at all, it’ll become an issue for you. My only counterpoint is, if the team was better constructed with depth and talent, as in not so top heavy, I don’t think the attention would be there, all on one player. Marner had 383 points in 302 games over the past four seasons, he also had 38 points in 38 playoff games, so he was earning his money. But he’s more of a complimentary player, he’s not gonna drive the bus in the playoffs, he’s gonna matter, but he’s not that type of guy to drive the bus all by himself, at least in my opinion, that’s on Leafs management for those expectations.
For years I’ve heard Shanny didn’t build a deep enough team for the playoffs, they’re a fun dynamic offensive team in the regular season, but they were never going to find success in the playoffs with their top heavy roster and their style of play. And that pretty much played out over the past seven years, where they got past the 1st round once. On top of that, I don’t think they’re better this year than they were last year, which is a problem, for y’all.

Go Jays!Living rent free in both your heads. The Jays were saved by Springer from the typical Game 7 disaster that haunts Toronto teams. Good for him. Great for the Jays. They overachieved this year and worked their way to the World Series. But now they play a team that would have to throw their season away to lose. The Dodgers are stacked. Ohtani is their #4 pitcher at this point. It’s going to be a miracle to beat the Dodgers. Their pitching is dominant top to bottom and they have the best player of a century. Oh, and of course, in typical Toronto sports fashion, they have a former Blue Jay, Teoscar Hernández, who will probably beat the brakes off them because that’s how Toronto teams roll. I’m sure there will be a lot of butt hurt fans that Ohtani is rolling into town, still angry he didn’t sign in Toronto, but he didn’t even have to play well to beat the Brewers. And they still swept the Brewers. Jays lost 3 games to the Mariners and narrowly got out of Game 7. Dodgers shouldn’t have much trouble at all.
As before, I’d be happy to see the Jays overcome the odds but this is probably where their run ends.

Nylander played so shit to start the season Berube called him out but you’re going to pretend that never happened. Nylander’s points don’t matter, he sucks balls defensively and has cost the team points. That’ll only get worse in the playoffs. Marner was happy to stay in Toronto, it was the idiot fans and moron management that ran him out of town. You’ll learn the hard way, like you did with Kadri, what happens when this story ends.
-

Keep those hopes sky high, it’ll be easier to see Ohtani and Teoscar Hernández’s moonshots from there.

Marner had more career playoff points than Tavares, Matthews and Nylander. Marner would play against Florida’s #1 line and keep them in check. He kills penalties. He ran the PP (which has not turned to shit). He contributed to 3 GWGs vs Florida. He was perfectly fine being one of the main, core guys with big responsibility. The problem was the garbage that filled the rest of the roster. The Leafs refused to get rid of the garbage like Tavares, Rielly, Jarnkrok, Kampf etc. and refused to pay and retain an elite, two-way player then elected to replace him with 3rd and 4th liners. It won’t end well for the Leafs as this team is worse and won’t be getting better.

The PP is dog shit because Marc Savard is an idiot who has no idea how to run a PP. They also lost Marner and replaced him with dog shit. The PP will continue to be shit especially in the playoffs.

It was as you say “dog poop” even when Marner was on the Leafs PP.
No argument out me regarding Marc Savard. -

No argument out me regarding Marc Savard.It was dog shit because of Savard and because they had to run 5 forwards on the PP because Rielly was and still is trash on the PP, not because of Marner.
Marner had 228 powerplay points (23 playoff PP points, #1 among all Leafs during that time) in all his years in Toronto, #1, more than Nylander and Matthews, so no, if the PP was shit it wasn’t because the #1 PP producer was shit.

Sadly when it came to Marner his talent was never the question, it was the fits he had from time to time, had them in junior as well, but London is in SW Ontario too… same BS for teens but thankfully not as intense.
And yeah, The Leafs were built without any space to adapt the cap lockdown due to Covid, JT’s contract always seemed high because of that. Long term contracts of stars always seem high the first couple of years, then decent the next 3, then reasonable for the last couple. The lockdown left him high for the first 4 and then decent for the last 3, which always felt high. They needed to give up Mitch or Matthews sadly to balance things back out and the current GM and coach prefer Matthews. Anyone who thinks Nylander or Marner is loonie, Marner would have cost close to $4 mill more in Ontario than Willie so no, it wasn’t him.

I think he will win a Cup in Vegas, maybe not immediately just because it does take teams time to come together but he wouldn’t be the first or the last. Most Leafs fans are still in denial about the Kadri disaster. That was probably the beginning of the end for this era. They had a high value player for a low cost and were too stupid to realize it. He was exactly what they needed more of in the playoffs and just did what the Leafs always do; cave to the dumbest in the fan base and the media and threw him away for garbage in return.

Amazing effort from this team tonight. You can really, really see the change in every single molecule of the DNA of this team the way they came out firing like wild animals in the 3rd period at home. Made perfect use of that PP too.
Huge fight with 16 seconds left. Really effective.
Tavares and Nylander got their points and the Leafs eat another L. This team is going nowhere unless they have a radical change that seems to always be promised but never actually happens.

Are you guys really going with that narrative still? “Leafs gotta change the DNA” or whatever? I mean, you’re not wrong.. But the DNA they already shipped out was the best DNA.
They should all just do steroids. Fuck it. Need more rage.

It is too early in the season, but what is real potential of this team?
1st round exit.
Trade Matthews and Nylander to recover as many top prospects and assets as possible. Tank in 2028.

Leafs are a Stollie injury away from the draft lottery ….without a pick.
Goal 1 – Matthews n McCabe with a clinical “how not to play hockey in the dzone”
Goal 2 – PK
Goal 3 – Lorentz n McCabe with a clinical “how not to play hockey in the ozone”
Goal 4 – Matthews and Domi, having watch the previous goal, with another perfect clinic on “how not to play hockey in the ozone”.Terrible. Berube’s leash is tightening.

Berube is so overrated. He’s mostly been a career.500 coach. The one year he won the Cup, he did so with a stacked blueline and Binnington who played out his mind in net.
Now Tanev is injured, that makes everything worse defensively.
Berube can tighten his leash or use an electric dog collar like a psycho lunatic would use but who is he going to punish? Who does he bench and then who comes into the line-up? This is what they are. This is what they got. And it sucks a tail pipe.

I meant the leash around Berube’s neck is tightening. He’s a big dog without any bite ..and I agree, I don’t think he’s a good coach. If this team is floundering around Xmas the noise about his job will get loud.

I suspect we see 88 and 34 next game. Might as well. Load up the top line and let the other teams focus on defending.
Knies-Matthews-Nylander
Macelli-JT-McMann
Joshua-Roy-Lorentz
leftover crap…I liked the big 3rd line. Give them a role, check, skate, defend. Top line plays 23 minutes and has to be hero’s every game. Lines 2 and 4 – just don’t do stupid shit.

The Leafs are fucked for this year and next year because they have no 1st round pick. But they can fully tank in the 2027/2028 season if they keep their 1st round pick.
This team is not worth trading that 1st round pick.
So they can trade Matthews and Nylander in the offseason of 2027, acquire as many picks and top prospects as possible, tank for 28, 29 and 30. And then maybe, they’ll have a good core after that.

Look at the 4 d men that still will be signed for awhile and what age they’ll be at once Matthews contract is up. At this time in the final year of Matthews’ contract those 4 are Rielly, McCabe at 34, OEL at 36, and Tanev at 37. All of them signed for 2 more years after that except OEL who’s done at the end of that season as well.

No, Knies would stay. Leafs have him for 7 years and he shouldn’t be moved, they’ll need him later. He’s still young enough to become an impact player later on much like Kadri would have been had he not be traded.
After you trade Matthews and Nylander, the rest of the team knows there is no longer any reason to stay on this team and all agree to move on as well. Tavares and Rielly would beg to be traded off a lottery team.
Traded at the draft:
Matthews: Two 1st round picks + top prospect + young roster top-six FWD or top-four D
Nylander: 1st round pick + top prospect OR young roster top-six FWD or top-four DTraded at the trade deadline to a contender who will overpay for a Cup run.
Tanev: 1st round pick or young RHD or top D prospect
McCabe: 1st round pick or young D prospect
OEL: 1st round pick or young D prospect
Tavares: 1st round pick or young top-six forward
Rielly: 1st round pick or young D prospectIf anybody questions if these players can get a 1st round pick, the Leafs traded a 1st + a prospect for Laughton and Carlo so go fuck yourself and learn how the trade deadline makes teams vastly overpay every year.
In theory, a giant sell off could yield the Leafs as many as eight 1st round picks (plus their own) and at least two top prospects or young roster players.
If the Leafs have nine 1st round picks in one draft and even only 3 or 4 of them become useful top-six FWD or top-four D plus their own lottery pick becomes a franchise player, they could literally overhaul their entire team in one year. If they tank for two more years, they could add one more franchise player plus one more top-six FWD or top-four D.
They could use all their 2nd and 3rd round picks on depth pieces and keep drafting goalies in hopes of finding a future goaltender too.

Why keep Knies? His contract would be up 3 years later, and he’ll be 28. Do you think he’ll resign to stick around with a few 20-21 year olds on a rebuilding team? Doubt it.
As for JT please oh please stop your dreaming. He’s signed one year longer than Matthews is and his final year makes him 38. Who would take that at $4 mill? Just let him finish his career where he wants to, it’s why he signed here at this price this past summer and didn’t go somewhere else for the $7 he could have gotten easily. My guess is he retires at the end of the contract and then jumps up into some “administration” role for MLSE after that.

Because he would become the new leader of the team. 3 years at that price would work great. And if they had to pay him to stay, so be it, the Leafs will have plenty of cap space as most of the team will be on ELC. Absolutely wouldn’t trade Knies until way, way later.
No, fuck Tavares. He’s part of the problem. But he wouldn’t stay on a lottery team anyway. He’d take the first ticket out of town. At 38, he will want to be a passenger on a contender. Playing in Toronto only really matters to him if he thinks he has a chance to win. If the Leafs were a lottery team, he’d never have come in the first place.

You and I see Knies differently. He’s a southern American UG, his desire to stick around with a rebuilding Canadian team likely doesn’t exist unless he gets HIGHLY overpaid and while he is good, he isn’t that good. I’d bet he’d walk to a competitor at the end of his contract u less he was offered 50-60% more than he was actually worth.
As for JT I will never understand your hatred, not liking him fine but for you it’s outright hatred. That guy took a discount to stay here and will be him and both him and his family are from there, he offers his home to other players, he is a team man. I guess I’ll just get used to you dreaming about him leaving and bitching about how he doesn’t for the next few years because I’m fully convinced he wants to retire as a leaf and plans to. I know his contract is technically M-NTC in the last 2 years but only to 5 teams he picks. 5 teams UG. Tell me exactly which of the potential top 8 teams would want a 37-38 year old C at over $4 mill? This guy is going to take over the C position once Matthews is moved until a kid is ready to take it over is my guess.

I see Knies as under contract and useful because he would be under 30. He either earns his keep or he doesn’t. Cap space wouldn’t be an issue if you had to overpay him to stay because the Leafs would be closer to the cap floor than the cap ceiling if they traded away all the guys I listed above. And yes, if he has no desire to stay, you trade him when that time comes. But he signed a 7 year deal so he’s locked in until the Leafs decide otherwise.
Tavares sucks. He’s a career loser. Just like Marleau, Thornton, Spezza and all the other home town pylons the Leafs brought in to pretend to be “leaders”. They’re losers. Tavares is a perfectly nice human being but he does not win this team games that matter. His discount is 1000% irrelevant if it yields bad on ice results. If a bad player plays for free, he’s still a bad player. Tavares is a one-way player. He scores and then is the cause of more goals against. He’s the wrong guy for this team. Some “contender” would gladly take him at the trade deadline for half his salary (Leafs could easily retain salary because the cap space wouldn’t matter anymore on a tanking team) and he would waive his NMC because he would rather be on a “pretender contender” than be on a last place, lottery team.

A couple of things. 1, Knies is only on a 6 year contract, not 7, the leafs are only going to be just starting their rebuild when it comes time to resign him, he won’t want to stay. So trade him when he plays ramped up with the other guys because face it, he’s a late round 2 guy who won’t look as good without them. Also like I said, he’s from Arizona and really doesn’t give a shit about the leafs unless he’s signed by them.
As for JT your point makes mine even stronger. If the leafs are going into rebuild, and JT is what you say he is, then he’s precisely what they want to keep. The old fucking C along with the old fucking D core til they draft up the new guys to take their places. The. End.
The way the leafs are dumping off their picks means that when they intend to rebuild it’s going to be a Chicago style one so don’t keep anyone in the middle. Old, then young.

Knies is 23 signed until 2031. That means if they trade everybody, tank in 28/29/30, they have Knies until he’s 29. At that point, the Leafs have a team full of ELC and a cap that’s probably at over 100 million a year. If it costs the Leafs 12/13 million to keep Knies happy, they could easily afford to do it. If he wants to leave, then they can trade him. But you can’t trade him now because he gives you under 30 value for the future.
Tavares helps the Leafs lose playoff series, not regular season games. If they want to tank, they’d fill the line-up with two bad goalies and Bozaks, not Tavares. And don’t kid yourself into thinking Tavares would stick around on a lottery team. He’d only play for the Leafs if the believes they can win a Cup. A non-playoff team makes Tavares say bye bye to the pajamas as he chases a Cup in his retirement years, not sitting around TO on a team that loses 60 games. And the Leafs could easily get picks for him that would be way more useful to a rebuild than any kind of loser lessons he’d have to teach.

Man, JT is at the point where he scores and the leafs still lose. Keep him. He literally IS the Bozak if that’s what you want to call it.
I’m seeing that out of him now tbh, can he play? Yes, does he amplify a linemates game? No.
As for Knies whatever, he won’t look as good without top ten picks on his line, get rid of him when they decide to drop Matthews while he is shiny imo.

None of the above will happen. NONE
The leafs drastically overpaid for laughton…so go fuck yourself learn that just because the leafs got robbed doesnt mean the leafs will be able to rob other teams.Also, its 6/7 games in…so STFU and quit your damn whining.

So Saturday game vs. Buffalo will start at 5PM.
should be able to catch game 2 of the WS. 👍From TSN:
Friday’s road game against the Buffalo Sabres has been moved from 7:30p.m. ET to 7p.m. ET, with Game 1 of the World Series set for 8p.m. ET that night.The Maple Leafs were scheduled to host the Sabres at Scotiabank Arena at 7p.m. ET on Saturday in the second half of their back-to-back, but that game’s start time has been changed to 5p.m. ET.
Additionally, their game against the Calgary Flames in Toronto on Tuesday has been shifted from a 6:15p.m. ET start time to a 6p.m. ET start.

The returns suggested for Matthews are pure fantasy. His contract is an albatross. He is not even in the ballpark of performing up to that contract.
At some point, people will wake up and realize that we just don’t see him ripping pucks past frozen goaltenders anymore. I don’t know if it is injuries or not, but he used to be the most lethal player in the league and he is nowhere near that now and hasn’t been for a couple years.

If he has lost his lethal shot fine, he can still skate, handle the puck, and pass extremely well. Berube’s should have a chat with him, tell him to pass the puck more and put Nylander on his wing. Sure he’ll still get his “in tight” goals but you get what I’m saying.
But I agree he isn’t looking like he used to yet and it’s not from a lack of chances so he’s still getting the puck fed to him just fine.

Man we were talking about the final season of Matthews contract so relax a bit. The D won’t be looking pretty by then, Rielly will be 33, McCabe will be 34, and Tanev will be 37 and all 3 of them will be signed for 2 more years. There will be nothing notable in development since the leafs have nothing notable in the upcoming drafts. I can see Matthews, an American from Arizona, moving on. The team will likely be starting to look like TB is this year so my hope is that he allows a trade in his final year of his contract if so and he doesn’t burn the leafs like Sundin and Marner have.

I think the tough part is that it seems like an injury, but obviously one that they can’t address and just isn’t going to get better 🙁

Living rent free in both your heads. The Jays were saved by Springer from the typical Game 7 disaster that haunts Toronto teams. Good for him. Great for the Jays. They overachieved this year and worked their way to the World Series. But now they play a team that would have to throw their season away to lose. The Dodgers are stacked. Ohtani is their #4 pitcher at this point. It’s going to be a miracle to beat the Dodgers. Their pitching is dominant top to bottom and they have the best player of a century. Oh, and of course, in typical Toronto sports fashion, they have a former Blue Jay, Teoscar Hernández, who will probably beat the brakes off them because that’s how Toronto teams roll. I’m sure there will be a lot of butt hurt fans that Ohtani is rolling into town, still angry he didn’t sign in Toronto, but he didn’t even have to play well to beat the Brewers. And they still swept the Brewers. Jays lost 3 games to the Mariners and narrowly got out of Game 7. Dodgers shouldn’t have much trouble at all.
As before, I’d be happy to see the Jays overcome the odds but this is probably where their run ends.
can never enjoy anything, always negative. what a sad loser.

Maybe they themselves are still hoping that it will come around?
If so let’s hope they had the first few number of games already decided for it to do so before adjusting things, like the first 10 or dozen games. As I said if he can accept it, and he turns himself into a primary passer feeding Nylander, that line can become offensively dangerous quickly. It would take some juggling to figure out a new line 2 but oh well.

I will always remember that home run… I literally got up and cheered out loud by myself waking up my gf who had to get up at 5am for work lol. She came out and literally said “you’re lucky it’s a Toronto team succeeding in the playoffs and that you still wake up with me tired as hell to make me breakfast, but you’re done cheering right?” I said “maybe, the game isn’t quite over yet” to which she looked at me with half asleep eyes and said “I’ll put my ear plugs in, goodnight…”, then she looked back towards the bedroom and then back towards me and then said this like she had to: “my love” and then walked away 😂

And you know what? That’s fucking fine! NOBODY expected the Jays to get out of the division, let alone to the big show. The team had a hell of a run, played out of their minds, and did something spectacular. But you STILL find reason to bitch. Only one team wins the championship every year, so every other team is an absolute, utter failure and deserves to be shit on? No wonder you’re such a miserable prick.
I stopped reading most of your back and forth with Cush once you mentioned trading Tavares. Literally, the dumbest suggestion ever, (which is saying something coming from you). He will retire a Leaf, 100%. You just make up bullshit scenarios so that you can bitch that they never happen. Get some new material, or just do everyone a favor and fuck off for good.

A lot can happen in the next 2.5 years. He’s been in the playoffs every year since he’s been here (hasnt performed that great on a consistent basis), he loves it here and they could still go on a nice playoff run.
The D is already old and will get slower…we all knew that. But if they stay decent they could be moved out for picks or parts if things fall apart…1st rounders?…doubtful. But we’ll see in several years.Some peeps swore up and down that Matthews would be leaving the last time he was an FA, didnt happen, not even close. Could things change, of course, we’ll see. Him and McD will be FA’s that year, could the leafs sign both for team “friendly-ish” deals. Sure why not.
So many things could happen in the next couple of years, no sense going doom and gloom 6 games into this season worrying about the 27/28 season.The leafs have made some bad TDL trades and blew their 1st rounders for the next couple of years, that’s gonna really hurt them (as expected). So I expect a quiet deadline.
But the season has barely begun so not too worried. Heck, nowadays I dont worry about the leafs at all. 🙂 -

Yup, very sad.
The Jays have had an amazing run and year, what an incredible season it has been. Its been so much fun to watch.
Dodgers have lost 69 games this season, they are beatable, heck their season record this year isnt even in the top 10 all time.
The Dodgers are a juggernaut for sure. But you cant count the Jays out, any time I have, theyve quickly proven me wrong. Its been awesome.
Oh and “Springer saved the Jays from disaster”? Your top players are suppose to have top moments and big plays. And from “disaster”? WTF, the Jays were predicted to win 75- 82 games this….the ALCS was all gravy, nowhere near disaster.
He simply has no clue, complains about everything and things that dont even exist. -

Agreed. -

Getting back to the Leafs, the team we see this week is not the same team after the TDL. Kampf and Jarny most likely dumped. Laughton (as bad as he’s been) is coming back at some point, and I don’t expect him to be as bad as last year. Matthews and Knies have been called out by the coach, and I expect they’ll get rolling at some point. JT is doing JT things, and Willy is piling up the points. The team had a very similar start last year before winning the division, and they have lots of flexibility to improve. I expect Tre is already working on something to replace Domi on the top line, who knows if it’ll be a HUGE move or a smaller one.
Literally, zero reason to panic.

The D is already old and will get slower…we all knew that. But if they stay decent they could be moved out for picks or parts if things fall apart…1st rounders?…doubtful. But we’ll see in several years.Some peeps swore up and down that Matthews would be leaving the last time he was an FA, didnt happen, not even close. Could things change, of course, we’ll see. Him and McD will be FA’s that year, could the leafs sign both for team “friendly-ish” deals. Sure why not.
So many things could happen in the next couple of years, no sense going doom and gloom 6 games into this season worrying about the 27/28 season.The leafs have made some bad TDL trades and blew their 1st rounders for the next couple of years, that’s gonna really hurt them (as expected). So I expect a quiet deadline.
But the season has barely begun so not too worried. Heck, nowadays I dont worry about the leafs at all. 🙂For starters every player in the league says they love who they’re playing for so stop caring about that lol
And as much as I hate to say this the truth is simple. Once his contract is coming to an end he will be in his 30s, will no longer be able
To get everything as a bonus on July 1st and play for league minimum, and the leafs will have nothing really worth mentioning in development yet.I really hate to say this man but the leafs have 5 years tops before a rebuild will be needed. They’re already at a decade for this core, no upcoming good picks, prospects aren’t deep, and the core of this team will be 30+ VERY soon.
It’s going to feel like 2010 again before you know it.

Man, JT is at the point where he scores and the leafs still lose. Keep him. He literally IS the Bozak if that’s what you want to call it.
I’m seeing that out of him now tbh, can he play? Yes, does he amplify a linemates game? No.
As for Knies whatever, he won’t look as good without top ten picks on his line, get rid of him when they decide to drop Matthews while he is shiny imo.
And yet those goals could still win some games against bad teams. Also, why keep him when he can get you draft picks or prospects? That’s the same mistake we got stuck with when Sundin refused to waive his NTC. Tavares won’t want to play on a lottery team at 38. He’s still going to want to win a Cup and playing on a trash lottery team doesn’t come before trying to win a Cup.
You’re right about Knies probably does play a lot better with elite line mates and get you a better return but if the Leafs blow up the team and rebuild, but you’ll need him when you have new elite franchise players on ELC and he would still be under 30. And the majority of the team will still be on ELC until he’s 32 which means you can afford to overpay him to stay.
Think of how Chicago had veterans on the team before Kane and Toews showed up. It allowed them to win a Cup a lot faster than expected. I’d rather have Knies at 29 than try to find another one and wait 5 years for him to be ready. If he refuses to play on a tanking Canadian team, you trade him but if you can keep him, you keep him.

Matthews is not injured and has not lost his ability to play or score. He’s just struggling without Marner. His value and his contract would still bring the Leafs a sky high return no matter what some retards think.
Same goes for a lot of other assets the Leafs have. There are teams that overpay at the deadline every, single year. Usually, it’s a team stupid like the Leafs, but there are many others. Teams that are going hard for the playoff run will give up 1st round picks and prospects. The Leafs just have to make the players available.
The Leafs have two chances left. This year (they suck and aren’t going anywhere) and next year. That’s a really small window of opportunity. But that’s all they got left. After that, they have to trade everybody and start the rebuild sooner rather than later. Matthews signed a 4 year deal for a reason. He’s done playing here if there is no chance to win. And it’s hard to blame him after what they did to this team.

So the Leaf victories we can cheer for will be that our goon beats up the other teams goon and we catch a great team on a back to back after 5 games in 6 nights and get a goaltending performance for the ages in a win?
Sign me up!

I still remember the terrible Leafs team in 1983 beating the powerhouse Oilers and Bunny Larocque stopping the great one on a penalty shot.

Getting back to the Leafs, the team we see this week is not the same team after the TDL. Kampf and Jarny most likely dumped. Laughton (as bad as he’s been) is coming back at some point, and I don’t expect him to be as bad as last year. Matthews and Knies have been called out by the coach, and I expect they’ll get rolling at some point. JT is doing JT things, and Willy is piling up the points. The team had a very similar start last year before winning the division, and they have lots of flexibility to improve. I expect Tre is already working on something to replace Domi on the top line, who knows if it’ll be a HUGE move or a smaller one.
Literally, zero reason to panic.
You’re delusional. This team is dogshit and you’re too blind, or stupid, to see it.
This team isn’t bad enough to miss the playoffs (unless Stolarz or some other major injury) but they aren’t winning a Cup. Lucky to win a round playing like this filth.

I don’t know if you’re aware of this, but professional sports teams are able to trade players, prospects, and picks to improve their team. Literally, the entire point of my post was that there are going to be changes to this team. God, you’re a complete idiot.

Sorry you’re too retarded to understand that this team has nothing to trade to improve the team. If they did have those types of assets, they’d have done it already. They have no 1st round pick until 2028 because they already wasted the 26 and the 27 1st round pick on such amazing all-stars as Laughton and Carlo. Sorry your room temp IQ can’t grasp that concept. Complete and total retard.

Sundin is not JT, not from TO and did not grow up loving the team. Mentally their attachment to the leafs is not equal, please get a grasp on this.
Knies is an American who will only stay under 53.53% taxation when the league has limited bonuses to 60% now to push talent back down to the southern US with a talented team. The league doesn’t want the cup won by a Canadian team, hell they don’t even really want it won by northern US teams, they want it won where they’re trying to build the league. Financially everything is groomed for teams in low taxation states. So it’s a safe bet that unless a Canadian team is a competitor don’t expect an talented American to want to play up here.

wtf is with your Marner addiction? Matthews is still getting a shit ton of shots, they’re just not as good as they once were, it’s not Marner he’s missing, it’s himself.
As for overpaying it’s Ontario, so they have to. The player doesn’t give a rats ass about their cap hit, they’re just not are an individual who cares about their take home, you know, like everyone else does when it comes to their salaries? Do you care more about what your pay cheque is or what it costs the company you work for?
And yes, I’m starting to see the 2 year window as well. Unless there is some sort of unexpected big deal that occurs.

What your brain can’t seem to grasp is that Tavares won’t play for a lottery team. No matter how much you want to believe he will only play for Toronto, the REALITY is, he only wants to be here if he can WIN. If the Leafs were a lottery team, he would have never joined. And he won’t stay to be on a lottery team as his career winds down to a close and he still has no Cup to show for it.
Knies may or may not want to stay. But since he’s under contract, they’re better off finding that out later and not sooner.

Marner made Matthews better, it’s an obvious fact. Marner got Matthews better passes, better shots, better scoring chances and was a lot more useful on the PP. Marner missing is a huge part and it’s why Berube can’t find anybody to play with Matthews. Matthews was defensive dog shit vs. the Devils and that’s the type of game Marner helped stabilize him.
For the 100th time, if the Leafs blow up the team and trade everybody, the cap will be at 100 million by 2028. And their roster will be filled with ELCs. They could afford to overpay to keep some guys under 30 and it would be just fine.

Really? Then why couldn’t Matthews score worth a shit last year either? This is a long term injury and I’m starting to think he’s no longer the same player he once was.
As for JT, you’ll never convince me you wishful thinker. This guy had his ELC, then nothing more than a 6 year contract to make him a UFA, at which point he bolted for Toronto, signed a 7 year deal, then gave a big discount to stay for 4 more years. Keep dreaming UG, the partial NMC for the last 2 years arent for him, they’re for the leafs, in case they need his cap space for a true cup run, nothing more.

Because Matthews had a rib injury last year and couldn’t heal because he wouldn’t sit out for a long time. This year, he’s playing with significantly less help from a lack of an elite playmaker.
He’s fully capable of being an elite player but he’s doing it alone now and that’s a difficult adjustment because he’s never had to play in the NHL without the elite playmaking of Marner.
Tavares came to Toronto because he jumped from a non-playoff team to a contender. Yes, he was “coming home” but if the Leafs were still in last place, he would have never come. Just like he won’t stay if they trade all their best players and tank again. The wishful thinking is that he wants to lose in the last years of his career. He took a “discount” because he thought he was helping the team win, not because he was being nice.

This is incredible. The way you’re all giving up on this core and talking about a rebuild.
Ya. No shit.
I’m not going to get into saying shit like I was right, and they should’ve traded Willy a couple years ago and kept Marner.
But I was 100% right about all that.
*hold for applause*
Idk guys. You all should really take a look in the mirror and get real. Stop lying to yourselves. You can still leave the cult. It feels very rewarding ngl. I get why people remain in cults, there’s comfort in familiarity, brotherhood, Hope, faith, etc. You all have this weight around your necks.
Matthews is two firsts and a second blah blah my dudes, just stop. Just leave the cult. Try to enjoy the wonderful game of hockey. Let the 12 yr olds fall for this shit like we all did for decades.
When they traded Kadri the die was cast. The rest was just the poetic tragedy that was sure to follow. I hung in there until the bitter end. Not sure why anyone would stick around now. Nobody has that kind of time to wait for another rebuild. Kids maybe, but you’re all adults. Go do adult shit.

I will always remember that home run… I literally got up and cheered out loud by myself waking up my gf who had to get up at 5am for work lol. She came out and literally said “you’re lucky it’s a Toronto team succeeding in the playoffs and that you still wake up with me tired as hell to make me breakfast, but you’re done cheering right?” I said “maybe, the game isn’t quite over yet” to which she looked at me with half asleep eyes and said “I’ll put my ear plugs in, goodnight…”, then she looked back towards the bedroom and then back towards me and then said this like she had to: “my love” and then walked away 😂
Iv watched the HR at least 50 times, and all iterations if people putting music to it. ill prob watch another 50 before gm1.
I was also watching the game alone, wife was away curling. My dogs didnt know what was going on. why was a screaming. good times
-
Leafs are about to go on a 10 game winning streak. Brace yourselves, you miserable sons of bitches.
Please don’t include me in this lol, I know they’re struggling to figure out a more physical game approach right now but that’s about it. All I was talking about was Matthews’ final year 2 years from now to try and avoid listening to the whiners about what’s happening now lol

Actually going to a Leaf never even crosses my mind. It’s absolutely not worth it what it costs all in. I could buy a pretty nice Fender Stratocaster for what they want for a couple tickets to a Tuesday night game vs. San Jose in early December. Screw that.
I’m a bassist so it’s a P bass I’d get (my favs, even had a 76’ jazz once and I still went back to the P bass) but I totally agree 👍

Pro tip for those Jays and Leaf fans who are priced out of the Jays game on Saturday.
The Leafs moved the start time of their game to 5pm and are showing the Jays game on the jumbotron after the Leaf game.
I just looked on Ticketmaster and there are still A LOT of unsold tickets and as a result lots of resale tickets at face value or less.
I saw some of my favourite seats (Blues at the end of the rink where the Leafs shoot twice) 1st row for just over $200 per seat from a reseller and there are quite a few low rows in that area. I like the ends because the sections are nice and small and it’s easy to get in and out of your seats + everything is close (bar, washroom, concessions etc.).
If I wasn’t busy Sat. night I’d definitely have done this – seems like a great chance to be downtown and enjoy the chaos after the Jays win game 2 & hopefully the Leafs are on game 2 of their next winning streak.

Leafs put Woll on LRIR?
That doesn’t sound good at all.
Not sure it changes anything. They had to move someone (Woll or Laughton) onto LTIR to make room for Mermis. He’s eligible to return in a week. If it’s longer term, maybe they use the space to bring in a top 6 guy now and sort out what to do when/if Woll returns.

For me, it is that they are frustrating/annoying to watch. The same mistakes, the same lack of effort and Matthews has regressed as a player. You still get the exact same feeling that this isn’t a “team” that gives a crap about each other. It’s a mystery Cupsie. I was assured that Marner was the entire problem and getting rid of him would fix everything when they bring in much more effective replacements.

Well, that’s gotta sting. #Sabres
Never really paid much attention to the Leafs, but since the Marner trade I’m now interested to see how it plays out with Toronto, and with Vegas.
Ugly game, but losing both Rielly and Tanev, their two best D men, in the same game while the coach was rebuilding the lines I wasn’t overly surprised to see that only one thing truly looked decent and that was line 3.
At least those 3 buy into Berube’s game.

Yup. They clearly are not buying in.

Yup. They clearly are not buying in.
Well, let’s hope the d men get back soon, line 3 doesn’t get touched, Nylander isn’t too hurt, and the rest of the team realizes that if they want to win under Berube they ALL need to play like line 3 did.
Stop trying to look pretty and talented, do a hard forecheck, a hard backcheck, and shoot the puck on net lots. If they’re doing their jobs correctly there should always be someone there to bang home rebounds.
It’s pretty basic, perform playoff hockey all season long, and as much as I hate to say it but if they’re unwilling to do it that just tells me they won’t be anything special in the post season. Do they have the talent? Yes. The willingness? Too early in the season to know for sure.

I think the whole idea behind letting Marner walk was to change the makeup of the team and hopefully add more of the elements you describe.
Unfortunately, so far it looks like the only effect is to reduce the talent level significantly, with no real positive changes to how they play. The injuries don’t help, but the past decade or so they haven’t worked hard enough or been consistent enough even with everyone healthy. The frustrating part is that none of their problems are new. -

The frustrating part is that none of their problems are new.Actually I disagree, the leafs are bigger and slower with the hope of being far more direct and physical. Hasn’t happened.
The idea is far more north south than before including a hard drive to the net.
Well, it’s supposed to anyways.
Agreed about the injuries tho, hard to get a newer style into place when you just can’t get the roster into place.

JT with the winner!!! 👍👍👍
He’s one of the few guys whose effort I can’t fault on a night to night basis. He’s pretty steady, was maybe overpaid on his last contract, but is underpaid now.

Latest article from the guy who runs the other site…
“Will Canadiens’ Lane Hutson Be Better Than Canucks’ Luke Hughes?”
#facepalm
I think Hutson will have a slower year, than last. The League now has a book on him. He’s not a big player and every team will target him by throwing the puck into the corner and taking the body. He’ll be a Cole Caufield of the defense. Talented but can disappear when the big bodies come after them. Montreal really needs to get some bigger forwards to help out their smaller skilled players.

A lot of people seem to forget he got caught in the overpaid years most long term contracts have due to the cap lock down due to Covid. If that didn’t happen by the end of his contract the cap would have been significantly higher and he wouldn’t have seemed as overpaid at all, I mean come on, he’s still a PPG guy ffs.
So is he a leaf? Yup. He gave them a big time discount because of what happened with his last contract. Sure he has a minor NTC of 5 teams on the last two years but I’m willing to bet that’s not for him to go to a competitor but if he sees that he’s a burden and the leafs need the cap space. He’ll just choose some quiet little place where he won’t get marketed.

Didn’t realize Marner was 2nd line in Vegas
Marner is 2nd only to Eichel in ice time among forwards on Vegas.
15 min 5v5, 4 min PP, 1:20 min on PK per game average.
The idea that he’s on the “2nd line” is like saying Draisaitl is on the 2nd line when he’s not playing with McDavid. It’s designed to punish other teams with match-ups.
-
Leafs put Woll on LRIR?
That doesn’t sound good at all.
As usual, your predictions are bang on. Thanks Bobby. Welcome back Woller.
FYI AA – someone stating something that is a fact is not a prediction you mouth breathing incel pretending to be other posters.
If you don’t understand something maybe go ask an adult before posting you clown.

Just read that woll cant play until at least Nov 1st at which point Im assuming he will have a conditioning stint.
Still a while out from what I see. -

lol UG the definition of the second line isn’t based on ice time. I’m not saying he’s playing bad but yes, he is on the second line.

The connotation of “2nd line” is that he is not a 1st choice player. His total situational ice time proves otherwise.
Nylander was on the “2nd” line but he is still the first choice RW.

lol he’s on the 2nd line. The top six is a good place to be, primary offence, therefore being on the 2nd line isn’t an insult. He’s still on the top PP for instance.
Anyone who says otherwise is just being silly or deliberately trying to annoy someone.

Mitch is on their L2
He is on their 3rd pair of PKers
Cassidy doesn’t seem to have him on ice to protect leads – at least he’s not one of the first 6 forwards in rotation. So almost the 3rd (not pair but trio) in that situation as well.
Very good offensive talent. Nobody can argue that.
Speaking of things people can’t argue – JT looking like a complete and utter steal as a 2C at his cost. Insane!
Also found out that he finished Top 10 in Selke voting twice! With most recent 2019. I don’t feel he’s a good defensive forward at all but as I’ve always said – these awards (minus Teddy’s and stats ones) are dumb and pointless awards voted by folks who never played (media dorks).

Sooooooo, McCabe basically murdered a guy on live TV, why is nobody talking about that beauty right hand?!?

You guys are obsessed with Marner.
He’s that hot girlfriend who dumped you and is now dating a more successful dude.
lol
Me: he’s playing good hockey on the 2nd line
You: well aren’t you an obsessive jealous man!!!
Me: ok… ok then

Idk if I was even referring to you.
Just in general. Every time I come in here you guys are taking about Marner. Unless you’re talking about how many 1st’s Matthews is worth in your rebuild fantasies.

Every time I come in here, AA is either having a full on conversation with himself using a couple different alts like Canada Cup and eggs Benny or he’s using my username. I don’t know it’s like this guy probably killed a bunch of ex-girlfriend’s. The other day with him full on it was only him on like one page having a full-fledged conversation with themselves. What an absolute clown. Fucking retard incel.
It makes you wonder just how big does the hole in the frozen lake have to be for a deaf guy to find it.

Marner is 2nd in ice time among VGK forwards.
How is he 3rd pair on the PK when he is 2nd in PK time among forwards? Makes no sense, like most of what you spew.
JT is garbage when it matters most. His value in October means nothing.
He did not finish top 10 in Selke voting in 2019, he finished 19th. Another basic reading of numbers you failed miserably at.
He’s been useless defensively in the playoffs in recent years. On the ice for most goals against last year in the playoffs. Horribly exposed vs. the Panthers.
-
Hell of an out at third there 👍
Hell of a home run by the Canadian guy who left Canada.
Definitely don’t need Ohtani.

When we do well in October, opposition fans tell us that October games are not important.
And then when we are meh in October, youse guys tell us we should panic.
Leafs fans just can’t win (yeah, go ahead, I just teed it up for you).

Meh, I always wait until about the 20 game mark in the season before worrying or getting excited about their play.
But ya, the leafs are a very distant second to the Jays right now.

Your semi-regular Leafs ticket report:
If you ever wanted to go to a Leafs game for cheap, tonight is the game.
It’s 10:21 in the morning, and there’s already a pair of lower bowl tickets for $146/ticket.
By 6 pm, this will be the lowest-priced Leafs game since the season we tanked for Matthews.
That’s when the game is going to start

This is because both groups are correct.
Doing well in October means nothing in January or eventually May. But not doing well in October is still obviously worse.
The Leafs have had strong starts followed by falls off a cliff. What they need to be is strong off the start and consistent through to the end. That’s why people decry October results one way or the other.

Well as a fan of a team looking to lift the Octocup, I think it’s pretty nice to be on top of the standings while it lasts.
Would you be in favor of the team with the best record after 41 games be given an automatic playoff spot? And the same for the team with the best record from game 42-82?
-

Not really, this isn’t two 41 games season, it’s an 82 games season. What would be the point of the remaining 41 games for the team clinching in Decembre? Why would anyone pay to watch those games?
But I appreciate the “out of the box” thinking there.

But I appreciate the “out of the box” thinking there.
So to clarify:
Top two overall records in the division: Two playoff spots with home ice advantage.
Best record after 41 games in the division: Playoff spot.
Best record after 42-82 games in the division: Playoff spot.Obviously, no repeat teams. A team can only qualify under one category.
It’s not my idea, I saw some guy talking about how baseball should reformat their playoff system. I’m just applying the thought experiment to hockey.
I agree, it’s one 82 game season, however, this idea has some benefits. The point of the remaining games is that the best overall record still gets the higher seed and home ice. Also, it removes some incentive from teams giving up on their season just because their first half or second half was bad (or filled with injuries) which helps reduce tanking and the annual trade deadline selloff and thus gives those fans something to watch rather than give up after half the season. Some teams, like San Jose, are going to be bad no matter what, but a lot of those tweener teams would have a lot more to fight for.

Marner is on the third tandem over the boards on Pk. He is NOT the first two. That means he (and the other forward he goes out with) is called by Cassidy – that makes him the 3rd set of pkers.
Ice time: you’re so quick to make fun of people, but but you don’t realize is you just look like a fucking moron yet again as you always do. Such a little fuckhead – the fact that his ice time is higher on a PK doesn’t suggest that he gets put on the ice more or FIRST OR SECOND – it means he stays on the ice more so now I’m gonna argue that because he fails on the PK so far in Vegas that’s why he’s on the ace cause he gets hemmed in his own zone where the other two pairings which is why Cassidy has him on the third are able to clear the pocket and get changes. But of course you always have to try and I say try to be the smartest guy in the room so you come up and you scramble with all these reasons why you’re right but really or not again wrong.
JT: he finished 8th (2014 my typo but point still correct juts date). And the fact that you even just admitted he was nominated for the selke was not long to begin with. So I’ll just cut the semantics (even though I’m right), and I’ll say sure. But how can someone as bad as you say he ALWAYS has been defensively (and I agree actually) and still get nominated? Because fat little dorks like you vote. Not players – tools obsessed who can’t skate.
So you my little incel are once again…WRONG.

Learn how to press the red button that says quote. I know you have so much CTE that you have to sit in a dark room for the rest of your life, but open your eyes a little wider and maybe you can see the button in bright red that says quote.
3rd pair PK but 2nd in PK time per game. You are literally too retarded to understand how stupid that is.
JT’s Selke votes in 2014 mean absolutely fucking nothing. You were WRONG. It wasn’t 2019. It wasn’t 2025. He was defensively trash vs. Florida. He was actually offensively trash too between game 3-7. Literally useless, like you when you talk about hockey.

JT: he finished 8th (2014 my typo but point still correct juts date). And the fact that you even just admitted he was nominated for the selke was not long to begin with. What? So I’ll just cut the semanticsnot a proper use of the word(even though I’m right), andcomma or and, pick one I’ll say sure. But how can someone as bad as you say he ALWAYS has been defensively (and I agree actually) and still get nominated? Because fat little dorks like you vote. Not players – tools obsessed who can’t skate.So you my little Super, super Creepy incel are once again…WRONG.

UG aka – virgin in mommy’s basement.
You’re right. As I’ve said 1 million times I don’t do spellcheck I type on a cell phone. Don’t really give a fuck but great work picking apart my typos awesome work, buddy that’s the sign of somebody who truly has a handle on the subject matter when all they do is point out, spelling mistake mistakes and take a look at your post there, but looks like he had a fucking stroke.
So I’ll try to be careful and I’ll actually spellcheck and typo check cause that really seems to set you off.
1. JT nominated for selke and finished Top 10 TWICE. He is not good defensively at all. That’s why my point is always – NHL awards mean fuck all unless it’s the Teddy or stats related one because other than that it’s fat short losers like you that are really good at spellcheck and grammar check and they never make spelling or grammar errors. Those are the people that vote not actual players with giant hands trying to type on small cell phone phones. It’s little short, stubby men like you. So whenever you and your girlfriend a point out, Marner was a Selke nominated player yeah well so is JT so JT is just as good as defensive forward as Mitch Marner I suppose then right using the nomination as proof. I’m right you’re wrong.
2. My points about Mitch Marner being the third pair that his head coach Bruce Cassidy puts over the board to kill a penalty also 100% accurate. I’m right you’re wrong again. Ice time on a PK does not necessarily mean you were first over the boards but again I don’t expect you to get that cause you literally never played a single game a fucking organized hockey in your life. We can all tell.
3. Mitch Marner isn’t even on the ice at the end of games to protect leads. Cassidy uses multitude of other players before Mitch Marner gets on the ice. He doesn’t trust Mitch yet. He may but not yet, kiddo.
4. JT at his salary just coming off a season with the goals last year filling a 2C roll, arguably the most consistent player in the leafs throat his entire term of his contract buddy that is absolute proof you have never played this game and all you do is regurgitate negative opinions about the leaves that you read online you fucking moron. A moron, but I gotta hand it to you. Fuck can you craft a sentence and spellcheck you’re awesome at the Internet great job. Unfortunately, you’re not the brightest when it comes to hockey. So I guess we’re opposites who knew?
So hopefully, I cleaned up all the super super confusing, spelling and grammar errors you white van driving, pedo incel and here’s the example to absolutely prove that you and your ice time stupidity is just that stupidity again you fat greasy moron.
Penalty is 2mins (tripping let’s say)
Karlsson/Eichel (lest say this is pair) are FIRST over boards by coaches plan.
Get a clear early, stay on ice in neutral zone dump down for a second time and change. This took 30 secs off.
(Just cause it’s easier) Marner/Barbashev are SECOND (really 3rd under Cassidy).
They get hemmed in on pk can’t clear cause Mitch tosses a pizza to the point vs a clear or tries to make a cute no look pass at blue line and it keeps in. They stay for the remainder of penalty (PP doesn’t score).
PK Unit #1 = 30 seconds of PK
PK Unit #2 = 1min 30sec of PKStop posting about things you don’t know – like hockey. Just make sarcastic chirps about leafs players, folks typos, and political shit. I don’t even know why you’re on a hockey site let alone a leafs page of a hockey site. You clearly don’t understand the game and you clearly can’t stand the leafs but yet here you are.

JT and Selke.
I see him being in Top 10 twice, but still my point is correct. Even if we just say it was once.
JT is Selke calibre NHL centre according to the folks either perfect grammar and spelling. My point was how dumb UG and AA are pointing to The Muffin Mans Selke nomination meaning anything at all – it doesn’t.
At the end of the day – UG/AA is…
WRONG.

Btw do people here know how to use google?
Did a quick search that took me all of 2 seconds lol
Here’s the result:
John Tavares has been a perennial candidate for the Selke Trophy, finishing in the top 10 in voting multiple times during his career. The award is given annually to the forward who best excels in the defensive aspects of the game.
Tavares’ top 10 Selke finishes
Eighth place (2016–17): This was Tavares’ best-ever finish in the Selke voting.
Tenth place (2018): In 2018, Tavares received Selke votes and was considered a strong candidate.
That equals 2 to me lol

Cheering individual records and milestones pretty much sums up the last 10 years of Leafs hockey unfortunately.
Pffft… try 58 years
And I won’t boo hoo over a game two back to back loss with a goalie who wasn’t even expected to be part of the team in net with both a primary forward and d man missing from the lineup this early in the season. *shrugs*

does JT need to sit with a -4
Leafs down by 3
He’s on pace for his first Selke according to some retard.
I see the Leafs are getting smoked by Columbus. Leafs are a .500 team despite the easiest schedule in the league to start the season. They can’t score, and the PP is garbage. Good luck with that Tree. Back to the Jays game!
This season is far from over but there isn’t much to suggest it’s going to get better than this as their schedule gets tougher. They have no assets to make trades to improve this team. Maybe they need to do what the Jays did and suck ass this year and then shock everybody next year.
Cheering individual records and milestones pretty much sums up the last 10 years of Leafs hockey unfortunately.
100% correct. And that has been Tavares’ entire career. Individual milestones but never wins anything important. He’s the next Thornton, Marleau, Spezza, Giordano etc.

“The dodgers are going to sweep the Jays”
Uh oh.Statistically, the Jays have dominated the mighty dodgers so far.
In fairness, I don’t think many people outside of the Jays clubhouse expected this. Still work to do, but what a wild series.
-
Virtually identical first 10 games as last season, and they won the division last year. 1A goalie out, Nylander ailing, Tanev out, and Tre has lots of flexibility for the TDL. Still not panicking, (unlike some).
The problem with being “identical” to last season is even if everything goes exactly like it does last year, guess what? They still lose to Florida and don’t get out of the 2nd round. So, that’d be a failure. The point of this offseason was to improve this team and win something in the shrinking window of opportunity. This team has not improved.
Leafs are failing the eye test right now and are clearly playing way worse than last year with a weak schedule this year. They have no assets to trade and the 2028 1st should be untouchable as this team is teetering on the edge of blowing it up and rebuilding. Robertson is worth nothing. The Leafs have nothing to give up to acquire anybody of significant impact. And if they trade Cowan, Danford and the 2028 1st, they will have a completely empty farm system. So if they gamble on this horse, they’ll lose the farm and probably get garbage in return considering what they gave up last year to get Laughton and Carlo who did fuck all to help the Leafs win the games that mattered.
The Panthers are missing Tkachuck and Barkov right now. If the Leafs were missing Matthews and Knies, they’d be in dead last. Hell, Matthews is playing every game and if it wasn’t for some empty netters, he’d look a lot worse than what his stats show right now.
This PP sucks ass water and won’t get better because Marc Savard is useless as a coach and Rielly is a dog shit PP QB. The defense is older, slower, less organized and more prone to mistakes. Matthews looks lost (especially defensively on most nights) and doesn’t have the same chances he had with Marner, especially on the PP. Tavares is scoring and the team is losing 6-3 and he’s -3. That doesn’t win you shit in the playoffs.
Stolarz has never played more than 34 games and Woll might be coming back from rehab. If the goalies don’t stand on their head, this team is completely fucked.
It’s a castle made of sand and it’s ready to fall back into the sea.

Other than they had the same record this time last year and won the division, they are missing their 1B goalie, willie and Tanev.
Not the end of the world.But the leafs did screw themselves by trading away so many picks and assets. The laughton trade looks worse and worse by the minute.
Another problem for the leafs is Matthews looks like a decent 2nd line center. I think I heard he has 5 5on5 goals since feb 1st. Put him 250th in the league.

And they are missing Marner, although apparently he was the source of all the problems on the team.
Matthews has 2 empty netters, and 2 tap-ins from passes in his 5 goals. His play is uninspired at best. He would be a 2nd line center on an average team.
Really though, when was the last time we saw him do something fantastic, or even really good. -

Patience. A lot of injuries and new players learning the system. It takes time. The rest of the Atlantic is also starting slow. Once November rolls around, then teams start showing who they really are. Woll will be back soon as will Tanev. Once the team gets healthy, they’ll start making up those points lost.

-
Yeah, about that. Jeez, guy can’t catch a break. Hope he gets back soon, again.
Pretty stupid to let him play again so soon after a concussion. The hit that put him on a stretcher was illegal but it looked like whiplash more than a direct blow to the head. That type of hit shouldn’t send someone to the hospital unless that person is still not fully recovered from a concussion.
The Leafs can’t afford to be without Tanev as their defensive is already in shambles but if he comes back too quickly again, my prophecy of Muzzin 2.0 will be complete sooner rather than later.
-
Nothing really broke their way today.
The lodged ball call is absurd.Actually, absolutely everything broke their way. Until it didn’t. All the “bad luck” they got in Game 6 and Game 7 was after a long line of “good luck” as they got other worldly performances from unlikely sources time after time after time. It was their Cinderella story. In 2020, Snell and Glasnow were on a Cinderella team that lost to the Dodgers. Just like in hockey, the Cinderella teams usually go to the final and lose. We see in hockey all the time.
The lodged ball call was 100% correct. Is the rule absurd? Perhaps. But that’s the rule. There was no mistake.

Can you imagine to pay money to watch this.
At least we can turn off TV any time.Where is amazing Maccelli tonight? Oh right, scratched.
What a fantastic Marner replacement. Totally worth the trade.
This game looks like the 2008 Penguins vs. the 2008 Leafs.
Did you really think the Leafs brought in Maccelli to replace Marner productions? Oh come on man.

This team plays for 10 minutes out of 60 and gets away with it. This shit won’t work in the playoffs.

But they’ve proven time and time again, it works in the regular season.
Which is where we are….13 games into the regular season.
Guess where the league isnt right now…..in the playoffs.Grrrr angry!!!

100%
10 minutes of play in the 2nd period, on home ice, ONE SHOT.
Berube is an average coach. He’s not going to get shit out of this team.
Your ability to produce the absolutely most boneheaded predictions is simply unparalleled.
But, I actually agree with you. The first two periods were a disgrace. I guess we’ll just run with the Oiler strategy of get behind, then run 34/88 every second shift.
What a fuckin beauty 88 is though, and hopefully 34 is turning a corner.
-
-
Except the part where I’m more accurate in those predictions than you and most others. Berube is an average coach who won one Cup with a team that had a stacked blueline. The Leafs don’t have anywhere near the types of players he had in St. Louis. They brought in a tough guy coach and still have 20 pansy players. Coaches don’t play the games. Even if he could, he was a goon himself, not like he knew how to win as a player either.
The “Oiler” strategy hasn’t won a Cup. Not even with McDavid.
These guys can’t be praised as beauties when often they’re the reason why the team is down by 3 with 6 shots after 30 minutes. They play like absolute dog shit for most of the game and that is just as bad as the good they do at the end of come back. When this team goes down 3-0 to Florida, they lose 6-1 when it matters. This is the same team with worse players and the results will be the same when it matters most.

Petit incel.Grrr the leafs won their 7th game and are 2 games above .500 but they didnt win the way they are suppose to win (are you new to being a leafs fan?). Even if they did win that way. Which way? My way, that way, some made up way…..I’d still have to come on here and whine.
Whine and cry…winning the wrong way, a book about dressing that way, living free in anyway….BOO HOO…oh me oh me…..the horror.Carry on.

They only won any games because they scored 13 runs.
In related news, Tourette syndrome can be very amusing on a hockey message board.

They won games when their offense dominated and their bullpen didn’t blow games. Big surprise, as predicted, the Dodgers won and their bullpen blew the game. Their offense also disappeared when it mattered the most leaving a ridiculous amount of RISP on base. Sorry you did not understand that very simple concept that even a retard with a room temperature IQ could understand.

Hey Kid Rock how’s it going you classy asses fucker?!
Just so you know, the people who use that word are the biggest ones. Cheers.
As for the World Series the Jays were literally a couple inches away from being the winners from the slide at home plate. Inches. The winner this year wasn’t based on talent because both teams had it, the winner won based off of luck, and every true fan knows this you bitter little judgemental ass who just wants to hate. Don’t call yourself a fan of a team anymore, you don’t meet the definition.
A fan of a sports team is an enthusiastic admirer or devotee who has a strong emotional attachment to and interest in a particular team, athlete, or sport. They may follow games, express support by attending events or watching broadcasts, and feel a sense of community with other fans.
See? The opposite of you.

Every sport has some element of luck but ultimately the better team won because they had a more complete team and the Jays flaws were exposed at the worst possible time. Great series, wildly entertaining and very close but the “we don’t need you” crowd was rightfully silenced.
Maybe if you weren’t retarded you’d be able to comprehend that definition better.

Another good night to buy Leafs tix.

The market is dead.
Will be very interesting to see what happens at renewal time.
I’ve been a season ticket holder for almost 30 years, and prior to this year, never considered giving them up.
As of today, I do not think I will renew.

Do you primarily remain a season ticket holder as something of an investment? Make money off the big ticket games, then go to less popular ones as your schedule permits?

Having seasons tickets usually includes owning the seat itself which means you have to buy Raptors tickets and have dibs on presale for concerts.
Managing the tickets for investment is almost a full time job in itself. Rich guys have secretaries who usually take care of it.

Surprised to hear this Wedgsies. Is it because you feel the team is not, or on the verge of being not, competitive? Is it that you find the lack of effort or heart to be frustrating? Is it the price? (vs. what you could do on the re-sale market)? Or do you just find that you don’t have time or don’t care that much anymore.
I have definitely found that I don’t care as much.

It’s a bunch of things, including what you wrote above about price and time.
I look at these ticket prices on the resale market, and I can get much better seats for much less money.
One of the big things about season seats is guaranteed access to playoff tickets, but the prices are so bloody high now, it’s hard to justify going to a game. I’d honestly prefer to go to a bar with friends.
And I’m certainly not as passionate as I used to be. Many will say that it’s because the Leafs have disappointed me for so long, but I honestly think it’s just me getting older.

You can’t make money off tix anymore – you haven’t been able to since Covid.
As per my multiple posts over the past few years, you lose money if you sell weekday games through Ticketmaster.

Pretty solid win against a really solid team, especially considering being down Tanev and Benoit.
Can’t wait to be informed about what is wrong with this team.

Interesting what you said about the re-sale market and time. If you aren’t into seeing every game, or even most games, anymore, it certainly seems that the resale market might work better. From what I remember you are in the city or in close proximity, so you can probably do the last minute thing. (Tougher for me from Guelph).
As far as age, that is a thing. My dad used to tell me about it and I never really understood. I think that as you get older, you don’t get the same adrenaline rush and excitement. You also realize that none of it really matters in your life, even in the slightest. It all gets a little old.
You nailed it with the bar comment. Watching a game in a bar with friends or at a friends place is still fun, but it’s more about the company.

Powerplay still absolutely sucks, they only had 12 shots after 2 periods, biggest players on the team are the softest (Roy, Myers, Carlo all soft as baby shit in the corners), Stolarz hasn’t been as sharp as he was last year and the bottom pairing of Mermis and Myers is pure AHL level shit.
You’re welcome.

1) PP also sucked last year at this point in the season with possibly the greatest player ever to lace them up.
2) Shots do not win games, goals do. Also, Utah had 16 after 2, soooooo…
3) Who cares if the big players are soft, because the small players are the pittbulls. Laughton was taking no shit around Stollie. I’m sure Roy and Carlo would throw down if required.
4) Stollie is off a bit, but he’ll settle in. Goalies gonna goalie.
5) Yes, our bottom pairing when Tanev and Benoit are out are pure AHL level shit… BECAUSE THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYING IN THE AHL!!! Nobody is under the impression that these guy are gonna be anything more than plugs.You’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel with these critiques. You have a hard job when the team is 5-1 in the last six and the key three are poppin off. Ironically, 88 is on pace for 116 points this year.

I was a little worried when the Leafs let in the first goal late in the first period.
Then come the dreadded 2nd period. Where the managed to be a +1 👍
This season so far, the 3rd has been the Leafs’ better periods and got he W even when the Mammoth scored late in the 3rd period – again, another late period goal I may addBoston and Carolina back to back this weekend.
Primeau will get which team? Carolina from where the the Leafs plucked him from?
I’d rather see Stollie going in that game. -
1) PP also sucked last year at this point in the season with possibly the greatest player ever to lace them up.
Not this bad and clearly the coaching absolutely sucks but without Marner, it’s going to be way harder for them to dig this dogshit PP out of the basement.
2) Shots do not win games, goals do. Also, Utah had 16 after 2, soooooo…
Scoring a lot of goals on very few shots is unsustainable. You’d have to be really new to hockey not to understand that basic concept. The Leafs always struggle to score 5 playoff goals on 20 shots and it’s usually why they lose the games that matter most.
The lack of quality o-zone time (especially because they’ve mostly played home games) is a troubling trend that won’t end well if it keeps going this way.
3) Who cares if the big players are soft, because the small players are the pittbulls. Laughton was taking no shit around Stollie. I’m sure Roy and Carlo would throw down if required.
Who cares if the Leafs have a bunch of big bodied passes? Uh, I do. The Leafs were supposed to get bigger, stronger and tougher. A bunch of lumbering pussies won’t move the needle versus the Panthers. Joshua is the only one that seems to play with balls.
You are SURE Roy and Carlo would throw down? I’m pretty CERTAIN they won’t. Carlo was the one who did NOTHING the last time he threw a guy into Stolarz. Carlo left his balls in Boston.
4) Stollie is off a bit, but he’ll settle in. Goalies gonna goalie.
It’s actually more likely he will regress to what he really is, a back-up. Career high 34 games in a season for a reason.
Leafs need to get Woll back in there ASAP and get a split going.
5) Yes, our bottom pairing when Tanev and Benoit are out are pure AHL level shit… BECAUSE THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYING IN THE AHL!!! Nobody is under the impression that these guy are gonna be anything more than plugs.
Tanev is going to be out a long time and with only 2 NHL level RHD on the most healthy roster possible, it’s a big problem. The Leafs D depth is weak as fuck.
You’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel with these critiques. You have a hard job when the team is 5-1 in the last six and the key three are poppin off. Ironically, 88 is on pace for 116 points this year.
When Nylander scores 116 regular season points and the Leafs are bounced in the playoffs when his defensive ineptitude is exposed will you run him out of town too?
You keep looking at “wins” as if the way they’re playing doesn’t matter. We’ve seen this team play like dog shit but still get regular season wins then bomb in the playoffs. The same pattern is repeating and you’re too stupid to see it.

Bye bye Kampf
Will he leave $3M on the table and walk away from all that COIN?
man TSN is becoming really bad for Hockey news in general.

Domi can stay. One of the few who steps up in the playoffs.

can’t rely on TSN for Hockey news and that’s a shame on them.If they terminate his contract he becomes a FA and he has a better chance of landing something with another team or going to Europe. It’s only $2M. His base salary is just over $1M

Domi playing on the 4th line is Berube making a mistake. They’ve already spent money on failed top-six forward experiments.
Domi stays.
Ok, Berube is making a mistake but Max is still a $3.75M guy on the 4th line.
So you don’t think they should add a top six forward? You want to go into the playoffs with the top six there now? If they do ignore you and add a guy, McMann likely comes down to the third and someone (Roy or Joshua) moves to the 4th.
I like Domi but I just don’t see the fit, especially at that cap hit.

The Leafs don’t have the assets to acquire what they need in the top-six anyway so clearing an average salary is hardly the only thing standing between having a top-six forward and not having one. The Leafs need to go into the playoffs with more guys who play with bite like Domi, not less.
Maccelli, Kampf, Jarnkrok, McMann, are all proven dog shit playoff failures and can go away. But Domi stays. Domi wasn’t a 4th line player in the playoffs last year and won’t be this year either.

Soooo… They’re not going to be golfing and they’ll be making the playoffs now?
Ok. If holding onto Domi keeps UG on the “leafs are making the playoffs” positive side of things I say keep Domi too 👍
-
They’re at risk at missing the playoffs as they are currently a wild card team and the division is a mix of rising young teams and sleeping giants.
I predicted from before the season they would make the playoffs and lose in the early rounds. Getting rid of guys like Domi, who step up in the playoffs, only decreases your playoff success odds.
If they miss the playoffs entirely, it won’t be because they kept Domi over not keeping him. It’ll be injuries, bad PP, decrease in goaltending numbers and a general weak collection of pieces by a bad GM.

Stolarz has been pretty weak to start this season. I’d expect any NHL goalie on their game to make both of those stops.
Let’s face a truth here. His current pace is to start 65 games. Before this season the most he has started was 34. He might just be playing too much.

It’s his 12th start in a month, so I can see some of that, but he’s just been inconsistent overall. Like take his games this year on a game-by-game basis and look at his GSAx in each game:
Montreal (W, 5-2): +1.95 (+1.71 at 5v5)
Red Wings (L, 6-3): -2.2 (-0.5 at 5v5)
Red Wings (L, 3-2): -0.6 (-1 at 5v5)
Rangers (W, 2-1): +2.4 (+0.84 at 5v5)
Seattle (L, 4-3): -1.9 (-0.6 at 5v5)
Jersey (L, 5-2): -1.4 (-1.2 at 5v5)
Buffalo (L, 5-3): -2.5 (-2.2 at 5v5)
Calgary (W, 4-3): +0.72 (-0.2 at 5v5)
Flyers (W, 5-2): +1.78 (+1.08 at 5v5)
Penguins (W, 4-3): +0.33 (+0.17 at 5v5)
Utah (W, 5-3): -1.3 (-1.7 at 5v5)Lots of hockey left tonight, but so far he’s -0.86.
He’s just very up and down and moment to moment is inconsistent. The numbers are there because they back up how I _feel_ in general when I’ve been watching him.

Oh I’m totally agreeing with what you’re saying here. It’s kind of what my question is.
Is his confidence too high?
Without feeling at risk for the primary role maybe he doesn’t play as intense? This is a total guess by me, I have no serious argument about it.

The leafs had won the previous 3 games without their primary shutdown d man. Not to mention their starting goalie is on a pace that would nearly meet Brodeur where he would start 65 games this season if Woll wasn’t getting his ass back into the lineup.
This team also isn’t built to be fast, they’re built to be physical.
Losing last night isn’t anything to complain about, at least not seriously.

Outshot 20-2 in the 3rd. Wtf is that.
That’s Leafs hockey. I was told it doesn’t matter how they play as long as they get Ws.
At least it wasn’t the zamboni driver in net for Carolina. Pretty damn close though.

They should be embarrassed, but if there is one thing we know about this team it is that they are not capable of feeling embarrassment.

More often than not, especially in the case of Marner, these players usually care too much, not too little. The pressure of the market forces them to deal with it every single day. It’s not a matter of accountability. It’s a matter of bad coaching (Berube is over rated) and a bad collection of players that don’t suit what he needs to succeed.
They have the wrong guy and the wrong pieces. This team needs to have a new architect (Treliving is useless) and they need to rebuild. But without their 1st round picks, it’s futile.
But this team should be blown apart for the 2028 tank and draft. They have enough valuable assets that they could probably put together a large batch of picks and prospects to make the rebuild a lot shorter than it was last time.
But they can’t half ass it like they did with the Kessel era. They have to truly tear it down and build it back up again. Hopefully, the right way this time.

not going to win many games with that amount of shots on the opposition’s net
-
Berube giving his team shit today because they have no commitment to defense. Yeah, no shit Sherlock, that’s why they hired you. And nothing has changed.
Funny how they can score goals but their PP is dog shit. Again, another thing to hang on the bad coaching staff, Marc Savard is useless.
Why they hired Uncle Fester is a mystery to me but he should go back to sitting on panels because this team has not improved at all with the new assistants.
-
I have watched exactly 2 periods of Leafs game so far this season. Just an all time low for interest for me.
Stats wise they dont look great.I never really thought Treliving was a good GM, and Berube also, very meh.
Last season tdl adding Carlo and Laughton for a monster cost was bad, not against using the assets, but not for bottom of the lineup caliber players.If they dont start to play better I may not watch a full game all season.
any who, how many days until baseball season starts?

Ya Berube is pretty average amd tre had a horrible deadline last year. Using two first amd prospects on a 4th liner amd a 2nd line Dman whos been pretty bad this year is the exact opposite of what the leafs needed to do.

The Leafs have had terrible luck with GM’s.
Treliving is a fool. Dubas either didn’t have free rein or took to long to figure it out.
Now they have no picks or prospects to help improve this already bad team.
I’d get the Caps on the horn and offer them something like this..
Nylander, Woll, Cowan for Leonard, Wilson, Lindgren, a 1st.

Bold strategy..Forget structured hockey, just go back to focusing 100% on offence. Defence be damned.

If I wasn’t right about Marner, and that the Leafs would suck without him, I’d have no reason to pop in occasionally to rub it in.

And what was Woll’s issue? Just decides he has more important shit to do than play hockey for the Leafs?Bizarre.
Anyhow, I knew they’d struggle this year. But watching it unfold more sad than I could’ve imagined. Essentially they decided to build around Nylander, who very obviously doesnt play the right way.
A once proud franchise, reduced to this. Bad management imo.

You have to admit, it is pretty funny to watch them fail so completely. 🙂
And no 1st round pick. I honestly would be completely happy with the leafs missing the playoffs and getting higher first round pick……but stoopid tre traded it away for disappointment.

Don’t worry, when Matthews was broken or useless for most of last year, Marner stepped up.

Are we a playoff team? I’m struggling with the answer to that question.
Put the word “successful” before the word “playoff” and then see if you even worry about answering that question lol
-

It was the summer of 2004 and the NHL was just about to go balls deep into a tight lockout. Where were the Leafs? Golfing. They had been eliminated by the Flyers in a 2nd round exit after beating the only team the Leafs could reliably eliminate, the Ottawa Senators. Sound familiar? Pretty much exactly where they are right now and next to nothing has really changed. The names and faces have changed but the results are as bad as they ever have been. Mediocrity plagued the Leafs from 2003-2013, as it has in recent years. Deep playoff runs were a thing of the past and every season was the same song and dance. Make the playoffs (sometimes), then run into a bad match-up and go back to golfing.
It might not feel like it but the Leafs are currently the 3rd oldest team in the NHL with an average age of 29. The Leafs of 2004 were exactly the same, average age of 29 and the 3rd oldest team in the NHL. Does anybody remember the Leafs getting better or worse from that point onward? It might not feel the same but it really is a lot more similar than most people would think and it’s probably going to end the same unless they learn from their mistakes.
I’ll be the first one to say, as I said then and so I will say again, “prepare to blow it up and rebuild now”.
This current Leafs team is not going anywhere except in circles. They once had a young core of players but they squandered their cap situation and they ran one of their best home grown players out of town. The prospects are busts, the draft picks have been traded and they’re not any closer today than they were 10 or 20 years ago. Just like in 2004. The mastermind behind this most recent failure of a team is Treliving, trying to pick up the pieces from the Shanashit Plan. Treliving has never built a contender much less a winner. He’s never even been close having barely created playoff teams. His days in Phoenix were an embarrassment and his accomplishments in Calgary are non-existent. The mess he left behind in Calgary (currently dead last) should be a good indicator that this guy can leave behind a huge mess and he can sure as fuck destroy a team in a hurry. And that’s what this franchise needs to avoid.
Berube isn’t the coach for this team to win today as it’s currently constructed, as it has none of the qualities his one and only Cup winning team had; team defense. Treliving brought in some spare parts, strapped it together with bubble gum and tried to call it “depth”. To make matters worse, they placed their full trust in a back-up goalie who had a career year and kept the defense in front of him as old, as slow, as soft and as useless as possible.
Unfortunately for this franchise, much like under another dipshit GM Brian Burke, they also don’t have a 1st round pick in 2026 or 2027. Which means full blown tanking is out of the question for this season and next season. That gives this franchise two more years of this mediocre garbage where individual stars like Matthews will break franchise records (as Sundin once did), as Tavares is scoring his 500th career goal and as Nylander is high scoring but the Leafs are still losing games when it matters the most.
What needs to happen is this franchise needs to realize that not only can this group of guys not win a Cup together but that also they MUST be traded to guarantee that the NEXT generation of the franchise can get a head start. Unlike previous rebuilds, the Leafs can’t afford to see these individual star players yield no return. The Leafs CAN NOT afford to have another Muskoka Five situation. What they do have going in their benefit is that these players could prove to be very big bargaining chips to other contenders across the league. And as the Leafs have fallen victim to deadline deals before, they could finally be on the opposite side of those deals by seeing many draft picks and top prospects coming back to the Leafs, instead of out the door.
Step one: Fire Treliving. Hire a GM who can make deals to restock the empty draft table and farm system.
Step two: Add 20 million dollars to amateur scouting. Literally give every single CHL/NCAA team one scout who follows every the team to every single game.
Step three: Add another 20 million dollars to European scouting. Literally put a squad of scouts all over Sweden, Finland, Russia etc.
Step four: Trade every expiring contract for as many draft picks, top prospects and young (under 23) roster players as you possibly can.
Step five: Be as bad as possible in 2028 and 2029.
Step six: Utilize cap space to acquire assets, sign veterans to flip them at the deadline to add draft capital.
Step seven: Develop, develop and develop as much as possible.2026 Trade Deadline – Trade Jarnkrok, McMann and Laughton. Do NOT acquire anybody. Only sell. Let the current players sink or swim.
This is a tough group to trade because there is little value here. But there is some value and teams make more mistakes on deadline day than the rest of the year combined. There’s always a desperate team or GM that will overpay to get something, anything, that might increase their chances at making or winning in the playoffs. All three players are on expiring contracts and provide little to no value to the Leafs whether they make the playoffs or not. Jarnkrok might get you a 3rd or 4th round pick. McMann, given his speed, ability to score 20, might get you a 2nd round pick. And Laughton, considering what the Leafs stupidly paid for him, needs to get them a 1st in return. Will they get it? Probably not. But there’s always a desperate team out there, trying to make a difference that makes a mistake. Last year it, it was the Leafs. This year, they need to find a sucker.
Total return: 1st (best case), (two) 2nd and 3rd round pick.
2027 Trade Deadline – Trade Carlo, Benoit and Roy. Do NOT acquire anybody, continue to sell. Continue to let the current players sink or swim.
This is a big one. Carlo is a pylon but the Leafs gave up a 1st and a top prospect for him. He is a big body, RHD. Surely, that can at least get the Leafs a 1st round pick back or a top prospect. Getting both, will be difficult, but at least one could come back to us if the Leafs find a desperate enough team looking to make a playoff run. Benoit might get a 3rd or 4th round pick. Roy might actually be able to fetch a 1st round pick, depending on the situation as he has a playoff resume.
Total return: 1st (best case), (two) 2nd and 3rd round pick.
2027 Draft – Trade Matthews, Nylander, Woll and Stolarz. Make Tavares captain of a tanking team to begin the process of convincing him that he’s next.
The end of this era. This is where the Leafs ownership and management approach the remaining elite players of this team and tell them; it’s over. There is no sense in playing one final year in Toronto because the franchise needs to move on from Matthews and Nylander shortly thereafter to rid himself of the pain of having to play on a team devoid of talent. Both players will agree to move on so long as they get to choose where they land. All parties benefit from this agreement.
With one year left on his deal, you trade Matthews at the draft giving his new team an excellent opportunity to add Matthews and give him a max extension. Don’t be surprised if this is Vegas. Marner and Eichel are his friends and it’s as close to Phoenix as he’ll ever be. Plus, they’ll be a contender. This maximizes his value to the Leafs and should bring in at least two 1st round picks, a top prospect and a young roster player. By this time, Matthews will be the #1 active goal scorer in the NHL and the yield should be massive. Every contender will have the cap space because it’s the offseason and will be able to maneuver to fit Matthews under their cap. The Leafs, aiming to tank, could also add bad contract salary to make the trade work and gives maximum flexibility when making a trade.
As for Nylander, signed until 2032, he might be a bargain for a team looking to add an offensive weapon / PP threat much like the Penguins did adding Kessel. Nylander should get the Leafs, at least, a 1st round pick, an elite top prospect and a roster player. Much like Matthews, the cap space in return should not be an issue as the Leafs goal will be to tank in 2028 and bringing back shitty, overpaid players benefits them greatly in that area. Retaining salary could also get the Leafs an additional draft pick or top prospect which they could consider since the cap ceiling won’t be their concern for a few more years.
The return should be AT LEAST:
Matthews: Two 1st round picks (2027 + 2028), a top prospect and a young (U-23) roster player.
Nylander: 1st round pick, top prospect and a young (U-23) roster player.
Woll and Stolarz: Two goalie prospects and one guaranteed bad starter for tanking purposes. Or just use Hildeby. Whatever.2028 Trade Deadline – Tavares, Tanev, OEL, McCabe, Domi, Joshua and Lorentz. Keep Rielly as he is essential to losing games.
This is the full blast tank mode. By now, the Leafs should already be in a lottery position and a roster of players begging to be traded to a contender. This is where Tavares finally says “fuck it” and gives up on Toronto. With little time left in his career, he waves his NMC and decides to join a contender to try and accomplish one achievement in his career before it’s over. OEL, also on his last run, trying to join a contender. Tanev, if not crippled, would be desperate to try and win a Cup could prove to be very valuable to a contender looking to add depth and comfortable paying a 1st round pick for it.
Domi, Joshua and Lorentz are all depth pieces a contender could attempt to bring in and pay dearly for at the deadline.
Total return: Two 1st round picks, three 2nd round picks, two 3rd round picks and a top prospect.
2028 Draft: One lottery pick (hopefully 1st overall but 2nd or 3rd would not be bad), three 1st round picks, three 2nd round picks, two 3rd round picks.
At this draft, the Leafs decide if they want to keep or trade Knies. Considering his unique utility, his age and still have 2 years left on his contract, the Leafs could negotiate an extension and sell him on the plans of the future if their new young core is elite. Or trade him too, if he’s unconvinced. Either way works for the Leafs. If they trade him, he should also be worth, at least, a 1st round pick and a top prospect or young roster player to replace his spot on the team.
2029 July 1st: McDavid potentially becomes a UFA and the Leafs have A LOT of cap space. Not saying he’d come to Toronto, just saying there’s a possibility (probably less than 10% chance) he looks at his home town team as a fully rebuilt squad on ELCs, ready for lift off and seriously considers joining the youngest team in the NHL as he turns 32.
2029 Trade Deadline: As McDavid probably won’t sign, the Leafs tank again. If you can trade Rielly, who is begging to leave by now, do it.
Return: Whatever you can get at this point.
By now, the Leafs would have two lottery picks (at least one franchise player), 14 top prospects (at least 10 of them 1st round picks) and anywhere between 8-12 decent prospects slotted to be depth players in the future in addition to two or three other young roster players already in the NHL, plus Knies, if he stays, or another two top prospects if he doesn’t.
As an example, the Leafs could translate this team in 2025…
Knies | Matthews | Nylander
McMann | Tavares | Maccelli
Domi | Roy | Robertson
Lorentz | Laughton | JarnkrokStolarz | Woll
…into this…by 2030…
1st LW (Knies / top prospect acquired by trading Knies) | 1st C (McDavid or Leafs 2029 lottery draft pick) | 1st RW (young roster player acquired for Nylander)
2nd LW (top prospect acquired for Matthews) | 2nd C (young roster player acquired for Matthews) | 2nd RW (top prospect acquired for Nylander)
3rd LW (draft pick or prospect acquired for Tavares) | 3rd C (2028 1st round pick acquired for Matthews) | 3rd RW (Cowan / 2028 1st round pick acquired for Nylander)
4th LW (draft pick or prospect acquired for Domi) | 4th C (draft pick or prospect acquired for Laughton) | 4th RW (draft pick or prospect acquired for Roy)Extra: Anything acquired using McMann, Maccelli, Jarnkrok, Lorentz or any other 2nd-7th round pick over the next 5 years.
1st LD (2028 1st round pick acquired for Tanev) | 1st RD (Leafs 2028 lottery draft pick)
2nd LD (2027 1st round pick acquired for Matthews) | 2nd RD (draft pick or prospect acquired for Carlo)
3rd LD (2nd round pick acquired for McCabe)| 3rd RD (Danford / 2nd round pick acquired for OEL)Extra: Anything acquired using Benoit, Rielly or any other 2nd-7th round pick over the next 5 years.
Goalies are voodoo. You could get an amazing one from pretty much anywhere be it the 1st round or you can use anything acquired by trading Woll and Stolarz, drafted in later rounds or signed as UFAs.
2030: It’s here they can either tank one more time, depending if they struck gold with their lottery and 1st round picks, or begin to start signing UFAs to reinforce the team in depth positions, maybe on defense or in net. What they Leafs should NOT do, however, is repeat the same mistake they made with Tavares and annihilate their cap situation and leaving no money for their own home grown players.
2031-2035: Add UFAs, make the playoffs and start being a contender.

if you look at these numbers, the leafs have been trending down since 2023, last season was propped up by Goalies.

Just gradually getting worse, and imo as the Tre moves start to take over the team. goalies not bailing the team out.
Dubas was meh GM, but I think he was at least better at finding skill to help the team, and fill out the roster.*shrugs*

Watching this team and it’s abundantly clear that they have no plan, no leadership and wasted opportunities this last decade. You can’t say that it’s because Marner left, it’s really because they never built the team properly. Instead of building from the goal outward, they’ve squandered a Generational player and have damaged themselves beyond repair. Did they ever go out and address the stud defenseman that could play 30 minutes a game and put up 60 points a year, this last decade? They had the core 4, but all forwards. Their goaltending isn’t bad, it’s probably better than average. It doesn’t show in the stats, but it does in regards to shots on goal and shots on net. Where’s all of this toughness that they proclaimed they’ve added? Sounds like bust city to me. The coaching isn’t up to scratch and the GM has squandered the future. Florida knew when and how to trade, but this organization never did. The young teams have overtaken the Leafs in the standings and the ship is starting to flounder. Is it time to step back and retool? Do you auction off Matthews and hope to recoup young, exciting players and draft picks in return? How about moving Stolarz to a team that needs a good goaltender, for at least a 1st rounder if not more. Rielly has needed to be moved for the last two years, so is now the time? Should Cowan be playing full time, to get used to the pro game and taking the next step? They usually say, wait until American Thanksgiving, but can we wait much longer? Leafs management had better find a solution quickly, or this debacle is going to cut deep. They’re starting to see empty, unsold seats at Scotiabank Arena. Who really is interested in an uninspiring team, with no balls and bad habits? They were able to hide their problems, while the Jays went on their World Series run. Now the spotlight is burning on them. Put up or shut up, as the saying goes. I for one will tune them out, until they either turn it around, or start moving bodies. It pains me to do this, but it’s necessary for them to get the message with low viewership. Time’s a ticking!

or Let Treliving do his thing so the leafs end up in the lottery
the 2026 1st belong to Boston unless the pick is top 5.
not sure which pick Boston gets if the pick is top 5. -
Fire Treliving before he Calgarizes this team further.
who would you bring in?
-
or Let Treliving do his thing so the leafs end up in the lottery
Don’t think the Leafs can be lottery bad. They’d have to bench or trade a lot of guys. They’d end up being .500 and give Boston 6th overall.
-
who would you bring in?
Excellent question.
I’d hire myself.
Jokes.
I’ll have to do some research but I’d probably target a director of scouting of a successful drafting team or the assistant GM of a successful team. Jim Nill before he went to Dallas for example would have been the best signing for the Leafs instead of the entire Shanahan garbage era.
You’d have to hire someone who can trade all our best assets for 1st round picks and top prospects. Clear all the cap space for the 1% chance you can sign McDavid and tank for the 2028 draft.

So tonight the top line on the leafs will likely produce something but look sad. The second line will look decent but be way overworked for who they are, Rielly will still be expected to be a $10 mill d man, and the rest of the meh NHLers/decent AHLers will look like who they are.
Wonder how long til Berube stops saying anything and just starts drinking straight whiskey in the dressing room during intermissions?

Berube was the wrong coach for this team. Berube has always been a mid, average coach, usually misses the playoffs or 1st round exits. The one year he had a Cup, his D and goaltending was absurd compared to the Leafs.
The correct coach was Quenneville. And the Ducks are soaring.

Too bad Toronto is not Anaheim.
Quenneville would never survive in Toronto and even he knows that. A: the team would never offer him anything because of how the media and fanbase would react and B: he would never sign it for the same reason.
90% of the problem for the leafs has 0 to do with the team. It’s all based on its fans, media, and coverage. Makes it a fucking soap opera.

Wrong. After two weeks, the woke mob shuts the fuck up like they did in Edmonton when they hired Bowman. It’s all nonsense noise coming from people that do not matter.
Add to that success, wins on the ice and then it all goes back to normal, as it should.

Nope, Alberta is hard core right conservative, the origin of the Reform Party and why there are so many ultra right wing cons today who are confused why the more Ontario/Quebec/Eastern style conservatives don’t necessarily see eye to eye with them.
Toronto is liberal/NDP as fuck, so the reaction would be WAY different than Edmonton.
I’m not saying this to be a know it all whatsoever, but yes, there is a notable difference here when it comes to the population type.

Lol ultra right wing, what a joke. They’re moderate conservatives. Progressive conservatives are a plague. And the cities of Edmonton and Calgary are littered with woke idiots. Every city is. Doesn’t matter if it’s Toronto or Alberta.
The woke idiots who would bitch about it don’t buy tickets. It’s just a Twitter rage fest that goes away. It’s not the real fans or people, it’s just the woke cult that runs MLSE that is terrified to hire the best person for the job.

A great player wanted to be the great office man I get it, but he didn’t learn first. He could have sat back there, when he started, take it all in from who he got to begin with, and he’d be still running them now in a way we can’t even think of.

Shanahan pushed Lou out the door because he refused go learn from the expert. That was the beginning of the end, already then.
Doughty was always right about this team. 100%.

There is a bitterness there, they both started the same year.
Lou became GM of NJ 87-88 (year 1 lol) and it was him who drafted Shanny who started playing the same year lol.
Shanny couldn’t take it again in Toronto lol

Or a lack of loyalty from Shanahan towards Lou. Shanahan thought he had the boy wonder when he picked Dubas. Or knew he could control him as a puppet GM. He went with the spreadsheets instead of the experience of a multiple time Cup champion HHOF builder.
Lou was manager of the year, at least once if not twice with the NYI. If he stayed, the Leafs would have been better and gone further. Can’t say they’d win for sure but a better chances for sure. He wouldn’t have played games with the stupid contracts or allow the country club to control the team.
I’d bring him back today to rebuild this team properly as hockey president.

I don’t know, believe what you want but I just think it’s a lot simpler.
Shanny just couldn’t lean on the guy who drafted him when it came to the team he was running. It’s like expecting dad to take care of your house. lol

I think it’s as simple as it gets; Shanahan wanted complete control and having Lou in the organization was a threat. If things went poorly, ownership would eventually remove Shanahan and promote Lou. Instead, Shanahan wanted a puppet GM and ownership, as ignorant as they ever have been about hockey, allowed it. Dubas was his pet. Treliving was hired to be the same until Shanahan got fired. And as we can see, Treliving is a glorified assistant GM who is running this team even further into the ground than Shanahan did.

By “beginning of the end” you mean his demise was expected…..7 years later.
Lou was done, maybe he could have gotten better deals from Marner and matthews….maybe not.
But he made a mess of the Islanders, the contracts he handed out and trades he made…set that team back.
Lou knew exactly what he was brought in for and for how long. -

My gawd, manager of the year means nothing. Lou signed some horrible deals with Islanders and set that team back. He may have gotten marner and matthews signed for a little less…maybe be probably would have signed some other horrible deals to set the leafs back as well
Engvall for 7 years. My gawd, the worse signing in the past decade. -
Don’t get me wrong UG, that’s my point, I’m thinking Shanny called it “his team” too soon, even if he was the president.
Shanny and Lou work together for 3 years with the leafs. I dont think that is too soon for shanny to get in fingers into the team. Also, Lou was hired to be a mentor for only a short time, he knew that and has said as much.
Impossible to say if the team would be better or worse had lou been GM…but based on the contracts and trades lou made in NYI…..not sure the leafs would have been better. Maybe a lower cap hit for marner and matthews. -

You watch too much daytime reality tv, creating drama where none exist. Lou wasnt a threat to Shanny…he was there to help and mentor the him and the next potential GM.
Lou wasnt hired to be the full time GM for many years…he knew that. He was there 3 years, it time for shanny to make his mark.
Besides, who gives a fuck about Lou, he left 7 years ago.I do agree, that Tre isnt a great gm. He’s burke 2.0….wasting assets on 3rd/4th liners, bringing in “size” but not toughness or grit. ITs great that Carlo and Joshua are big guys….but if they allow Zadorov to have his way with their teammates, they are pretty much useless.
Last years trade deadline could haunt the leafs and tre for many years. The deal for Rasmus fell apart so he overpaid for Carlo. Bad trade. -

The Leafs organization envisioned a league that was changing. They expected an evolution towards speed and skill, where a potent powerplay would keep rough/rugged play in check. Management in the new NHL would lean heavily on analytics as the new direction would remove a lot of the intangibles that traditionally were important for success, particularly in the playoffs. Dubas fit the vision. Lou did not.
What they got was a league that did not change in the slightest and a team with not nearly enough of the heart/grit/caresi required to win. Then they got F’d over by the stagnant cap which meant that their overpaid players didn’t become good deals as they aged. They were messed up by this worse than any other team.
They then proceeded to go down a dark hole of throwing away draft picks and prospects every year to pick up “grit” guys to hopefully bring that element to the team. They decimated their farm and their draft capital. The problem is when your top earners and “best” players are the ones who don’t have enough heart, then players brought in at the end of the season will change absolutely nothing.
Now, they simply have the “wrong” best players. They aren’t good enough. In fact, they are getting worse. Nylander is about the same as Kessel; good piece, not a leader. Matthews game gets worse every year. He is an average 2nd line center now paid like a top-5 player in the league. Rielly should have been gone before his last contract. Tanev is way past his prime and Tavares, as steady as he is, is just not enough to lead this team to any success. The rest of the players are just interchangeable, average NHLers.
I would seriously consider blowing it all up. I do not think this iteration of the team will ever win anything.

Agreed on all points.
Marner wasnt the only problem…almost the whole team was the problem. I feel like Matthews doesnt have what it takes to lead a team or be “the guy”.
I hated wasting 1st rounders every year to try and “go for it” and now they have an old often injured backend thats only gonna get slower each year.
Problem is Burke 2.0 traded away TWO 1st rounders for a 4th liner and 4th/5th dman, horrible trades. This now means the leafs cannot rebuild for the next two years as they simply have none of their 1st rounders. Burke 2.0 needs to be told he cannot trade another 1st or simply fired. Which I think if the leafs miss the playoffs, he will be fired.I honestly wouldnt mind the leafs missing the playoffs if they had their 1st rounder, Ive been all in for taking a step back one year to move out some players and get some young talent in at the draft (mid to high 1st rounder)….but every year I was crapped on for the idea.
Now, the leafs are really screwed. Goaltending made this team and D look good last year, this year our goalies have been crap. The team has nothing in the cupboard to help make any significant change and honestly I wouldnt want Tre to make anymore trades anyway. He’s not very good at it.
So now we gotta wait until the 2027 off season for any type of rebuild…which wont come anyway, leafs arent trading matthews and nylander.
But Tre has really screwed this team.Ah well. I’ve lost so much interest in this team, it doesnt really matter. This franchise just can never get its shit together, cant ever get over any hump.
BUT
With all that said…..its still early, things can hopefully change. Players can get healthy, Stolarz and woll could remember how to play in net, matthews could look like a top 5 player again and not some 20 – 35th center which hes been for the past year and a bit, this team could learn to play defense again.
Still early.
The East is pretty meh, the leafs are only 2pts out of playoff spot and 4pts out of 1st in the Atlantic. Its not the end of world yet. -
The Maple Leafs have announced that Joseph “The Glass” Woll has been activated and will be called up.

What an absolute beauty, he should be getting standing ovations every game. Hopefully, the Leafs can take advantage of the extra cap space from his hometown discount.
And like another poster said, there is one particular poster that HATES that deal.

Guys, give it up. Even if Tavares was playing for free, him scoring goals and points but being defensively useless is why this team is losing games 5-4 and will never succeed in the playoffs.
Tavares is Sundin all over again. Not an elite player. Not an MVP. Not a Cup winner. Home town kid who keeps the sheep in their pajamas happy. But he’s not bringing this team a Cup with the way he plays overall.
And that’s the problem with this franchise and you fan boys. You guys worship him like he’s won something for this team and he’s still going strong. He’s not Crosby. He’s done nothing but pad his career stats.

Leafs claim Stecher, holy shit, we are SO back.
Can’t be worse than some of the options we have.
A 5’10, 185 lbs defenseman is usually a very, very bad idea. Probably just as physical as Carlo or Myers though.
He hasn’t been useful or effective in over 5 years.
Like Ian White with none of the good qualities.

Boston. Then he scores 20. 5 against the Leafs. In one game.
Let’s also keep in mind where Stecher is coming from; the Edmonton Oilers. If you can’t play D for Edmonton, you can’t play D for anybody anymore.

Guys, help me out here. I am trying to craft the most ridiculous a-hole post I can imagine.
So far, the post is all about how Tavares’ defensive play is the reason the Leafs are losing, and so I am comparing him directly to that other Leafs loser, Mats Sundin.
How am I doing so far? Could I make up something more ridiculous.

Guys, help me out here. I am trying to craft the most ridiculous a-hole post I can imagine.
So far, the post is all about how Tavares’ defensive play is the reason the Leafs are losing, and so I am comparing him directly to that other Leafs loser, Mats Sundin.
How am I doing so far? Could I make up something more ridiculous.
Nailed it!

Did Tavares and Nylander get their points tonight?
Great.
Did the Leafs win?

You mean – Selke nominated and future Hall of Fame Johnny Toronto Tavares?
This guy has a huge problem with Hall of Fame players – first he’s chirping Mats now JT….so 3 things I take from it: he hates selke nominated centres, hates hall of famers, and the poster is an overweight virgin who can make a golden retriever depressed with his constant negative ‘life if the party’ disposition.
You’re fired. WRONG.

You mean, Tavares was on the ice for both the game tying goal AND the game winning goal against?
Damn…it’s almost as if one dimensional players score but still lose games.
I’m sure he’ll still beat contenders playing like that though with magic miracle powers and such. Like he did vs. Florida.
And yet you love 4th line Domi. Tavares makes $500k more than Max but has 24 points compared to 6 from Domi. Neither are Selke winners but it’s not hard to see who’s providing value and who’s going to be traded.

Hey Guys, Since my first attempt at the most idiotic post possible was such a resounding success, I wanted to see if I could follow it up with the second most stupid post possible.
How about if I were to blame the team’s net-minus on the two top scorers for only having the 2nd best, and 5th best +/- on the team. Is that too simple and too stupid? I don’t want to eclipse the stupidity from last night’s idiocy of blaming Tavares and Sundin.

Hey retard, who was on the ice for the most goals against in the playoffs last year?
Rielly, Carlo, Tavares and Nylander.
You don’t have to play dumb, you live it every day as you are.

Don’t love Domi for how he is playing now because defensively this year he has been horrid. But that’s also because he’s being used as a center and in too many defensive situations.
In the playoffs last year, he played with fire and balls and in the correct role was not a negative asset like he has been this season. Domi is a winger and a fiesty sparkplug. That’s his role.

I’ve liberated myself from this team for now. Not watching any of the games and not watching their advertisers. If they gave me free tickets, I’d sell them and plan a nice weekend getaway. This team is putrid and going nowhere. They haven’t had a heart and soul player on this roster since the days of Roberts, Tucker, Corson and Mogilney. It’s sad to say, but the last 23 years have been dismal. Sure, we’ve seen some great personal milestones for some of the elite players, but none of them have been able to elevate their game in the playoffs. Coach’s come, coach’s go. GM’s come, GM’s go and the song remains the same. Ticket prices up, broadcast revenues up, great for the shareholders. The fans just spinning their wheels and getting older. I won’t live long enough to see them do a rebuild and actually win the Stanley Cup. My fading memory will be watching them win the Cup as a 9 year old boy in glorious black and white. As I’ve said before, the last Cup victory was closer to the inception of the team, in 1917, than today. That’s the disgrace that we all must wear around our necks as Leafs fans. Might as well be cement cinder blocks.

The Stanley Cup is the hardest team trophy to win in all of sports. This is a fact. It’s incredibly difficult to assemble a team that can withstand the rigors of 82, soon to be 84, regular season games, qualify for the playoffs and then win not one but four seven game series against teams that are just as motivated. But the Leafs have way more resources than 100% of the NHL. Only Montreal, New York and to a lesser degree, Boston, Chicago have the financial resources and the fan base that could drive them to spend and care as much as the Leafs could. And the Leafs just seem to squander this advantage at every turn by simply hiring the wrong people to operate the team. Time and time again, they hire idiots like JFJ, Dubas, Burke, Shanahan, nepo-baby Treliving…management with no proven track record of success or merit. Closet they got was Lou and they kicked him to the curb.
It’s rather sad that expansion franchises like Nashville, Florida, Tampa Bay, Anaheim, Carolina, Las Vegas, San Jose and even the Ottawa Senators, have either won a Stanley Cup or gone to the Final with a fraction of the financial resources and a fraction of the fan support. Franchises that do more with less while the Leafs do less with more. And again, this points to the Leafs, as an organization, simply not being capable of putting the correct people in charge to assemble a team capable of achieving glory.
Looking at the Leafs the past 20-25 years, you see time and time again, the same pattern repeating. The way they waste 1st round picks, either by throwing them away in bad trades or making bad selections, is horrible. The few lottery picks they did manage to keep, they selected too many of the same type of player. Then, overextended themselves signing Tavares who did not bring what he was paid or expected to bring. Every “top prospect” found in the late 1st round or beyond has been overhyped and underdelivered except for perhaps Knies in recent years. And as good as Knies is, he’s still not Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Point, Kucherov etc. type of elite MVP found in the obscurity of the draft. He’s a solid top-six winger. Very good, but not great. Not elite. Not the absolute best when it matters.
The player this team has built itself around have never been the truly elite players of their era. I brought up Sundin days ago, not because I hate him but to illustrate that only the absolute best win Cups and the Leafs never seem to have the best of anything, especially in the playoffs. Sundin was a franchise record breaking player, but in his era he wasn’t Sakic. He wasn’t Yzerman. Or Hasek. Or Brodeur. Or Niedermayer. Or any other player that was truly an elite “winner” in his era. The same goes today with Tavares. Tavares is not Kane, Toews Crosby or Ovechkin of his era either. Matthews, has at least won MVP awards and the Richard. But when the moment arose for him to be that in the playoffs, it’s never materialized. Matthews is not MacKinnon, Kucherov, Barkov or even Eichel of his era. Notice the pattern? The Leafs have had very good players, but never one that has proven to be the absolute best. And only the absolute best, with the team that goes with them, can win a Stanley Cup because that’s how hard it is to win.
Ovechkin, as great as he was and still is, only has one Stanley Cup. But every year in the playoffs, he showed up. His team wasn’t built for the playoffs, but he still was. Similarly, McDavid has been dominant in the playoffs but his team hasn’t held up their end of the bargain. Unfortunately with the Leafs, it seems as though neither the team nor Matthews is suited for the playoffs. Maybe that will magically change but it seems less and less likely as the years go by. It only gets more difficult for a playoff underachiever to improve when his team around him disintegrates and removes elite players like Marner only to replace him with 3rd line plugs. But again, unlike McDavid, Matthews doesn’t even show dominance in a losing effort. He just plays down to the level of his own team.
The Leafs need to start planning their rebuild for 2028 now, which meanings firing Treliving and bringing in a President of Hockey Ops that truly understands what it means to draft, develop and build a winner from the ground up. It needs to be a total tear down and fire sale. The assets they currently hold are, luckily, still valuable to other teams. If the return is big enough, the Leafs can acquire elite prospects, a multitude of 1st round picks and if they tank properly in 2028 and 2029, could draft themselves a new crop of franchise players. If vetted out properly and surrounded by depth draft picks who are developed properly, the Leafs could find themselves back in the playoffs and contending again by 2030.

It seems like some people need to step away from watching the leafs, they simply shouldnt impact your life so negatively.
Its just sports….not even a team you are playing on. I get it they suck and have for decades but it really shouldnt impact your mood…..for too long.Still early…they can turn it around….to squeak into the playoffs and get eliminated in the first round.

Jeez, that free agent class for next year is looking… uh… uninspiring.

Then trade him! He’s probably willing to waive his NMC if you’re right!! 😜

But what are you basing his unhappiness about how things shook down on?Just a gut instinct to be honest. After they got eliminated last year, 16/34 and a couple guys were golfing together two days later. El Capitan said after 16 left that they would be friends forever or something along those lines. Matthews hasn’t seemed to be playing with the same passion so far, either.
The whole thing gives me Lowry/DeRozan vibes, minus the part about winning a championship.

Does Berube get through the whole season if the leafs keep playing like this? Maybe Tre should just trade the entire coaching staff with another team? lol

Leafs are second in the league in scoring. Problems are being able to get the puck out of their end and mistakes. It’s not a systems problem, it’s an execution problem.

The older you get, the more you realize that it is nothing more than a hopefully entertaining diversion. I was more bummed out by the Jays losing than the Leafs last year and I am by no means an avid baseball fan.
I think it becomes easier to shrug it off when you don’t like the team much. I admired the Jays team and I felt like they got kinda got shafted by a brutal call on a fluke play.I remember many years ago now actually enjoying the Leafs team because they had a new crop of young stars and you could see some hope. That iteration is already coming to an end and if it isn’t, it probably should be.

This team is incapable of being 2nd in scoring and 2nd in defending. This Leafs team either doesn’t score and defends or it attacks and loses 5-4. It’s built upon core players that play one-dimensional hockey.
The difference between this team and the Phil Kessel team, is now we have more Phil Kessels.

They had the 7th or 8th fewest goals against in the league last year when Stolarz and Woll were actually stopping pucks. Not so much now with Stolarz at the bottom of the league in GA.
Obviously they’re not playing well defensively. They make too many mistakes and McCabe and Carlo are playing like crap. They may not be a very good team but I think they can and will play better than they have been. I think we see some trades fairly soon.

Stolarz wasn’t just average last year, he wildly overachieved. So if you’re expectation is that the Leafs goalies have to overachieve every single season just to be in the top 10 in GA, I’ve got a bridge to sell you. Some idiots, including Treliving, didn’t believe it but I told everybody that Stolarz is a career back-up. He had a career year. He has injury problems and can’t play a full season. He fell back down to Earth. This team was not playing good defense last year or this year. They were just getting extraordinary saves that aren’t there anymore.
McCabe was given an extension. Carlo was acquired for a top prospect and what could become a 6th overall pick. That’s on Treliving’s idiocy, among many other stupid moves he made this offseason.
You’re delusional if you think trades will make this team better. Treliving loses every trade he makes in Toronto. Trades making this team better is like expecting a blind raccoon to perform brain surgery on a gunshot wound.
-
I saw an error the page – so here’s the correction: (actually an error in genetics making an error)
Treliving ASKED mitchy to go for a FAR superior winger, and mitchy (as was his right…thanks Kyle) said WAAHH NO, put out his bottom lip and was whisked away by his daddy to a safe house as the death threats keep pouring in.

Hey fatty!
Nope. Wrong.
Mitch left. He chose to leave. He stated it was time to move on.
If a guy ‘like me’ can force mitchy to leave – it doesn’t surprise me he slink away come playoff time – when things get tight space wise and player play mean.
I couldn’t care less if Leafs ever won a cup again – no offence to the fans on here but it definitely won’t change my life at all. I’d love to see it though – be super fun and exciting to watch happen. But truly won’t lose sleep either way.
As always my little incel friend – all you do is make yourself look classless and foolish. You have zero understanding of this great game.
Super high IQ though I bet – you type fantastic!!

Tanking certainly has it’s benefits this year, if they full blown tank it.
No. 3: Keaton Verhoeff, D, 6-foot-4, 212 pounds, North Dakota (NCAA)
Made a gutsy call when he decided to join Victoria teammate Cole Reschny at North Dakota. Reschny was Calgary’s first round pick, 18th overall in 2025, while Verhoeff is expected to go shortly after McKenna in June. He doesn’t possess McKenna’s track record and plays a different position, so it will be fascinating to track Verhoeff’s progress as a draft eligible defenceman in college. The debate will be heavy as to whether he was better off getting more games in the CHL, or utilizing a lighter NCAA schedule to become stronger. Only time will tell. He has checked all the boxes on the way up the developmental ladder from Canada’s Youth Olympic team through gold medals at the U17s and U18 worlds. Most recently, he was Canada’s captain in a bronze medal-winning performance at the Hlinka-Gretzky.
No. 4: Ethan Belchetz, LW, 6-foot-5, 227 pounds, Windsor Spitfires (OHL)
His size always allowed him to dominate youth hockey, and now he is doing the same in the OHL. Last year, Belchetz put up four goals in his third ever OHL game, but tailed off to score just 13 more in the next 53 contests. He roams the ice like he owns it. His hands and feet work well together to create additional space to execute plays. He’s got a big league shot that is effective from distance. I like the fact that he plays in a Windsor lineup with other over-sized players like Chicago prospect AJ Spellacy, and Kings prospect Liam Greentree. Belchetz is a different player, with more offensive upside than both, but he can definitely get some guidance from them on how to navigate his draft season.
No. 5: Ryan Roobroeck, C, 6-foot-4, 216 pounds, Niagara IceDogs (OHL)
Has already set a high bar for himself, having put up 41 goals and 86 points in his draft minus-one season in the OHL. That production is made all the more impressive considering there’s been a lot of noise in the organization since the day he was drafted. With Frank Evola now running the ship, things will settle down this season. Evola brought in head coach Krys Barch who was a solid OHL producer with size and someone Roobroeck can take mentorship from. Another great late birthday player in this draft, Roobroeck’s final ranking will come down to how he progresses in non point-producing situations.

Nope, if mitch didnt want to leave he would have signed the $13m per year contract he was offered.
He was leaving no matter what, simply couldnt handle the pressure.
The collapse of this team, their failures and possible future rebuild in 2-3 years will have/has nothing to do with anyone on here.But keep up your idiotic grrrrr im angry at everything, even things that dont exist incel ways.

Holy fuck can the Marner argument stop?
The guy wanted a $7.5 mill take home after taxes and in an Ontario that would cost around a $15 mill salary for a Canadian player. Ta-fucking-da.
If the leafs want to succeed under Berube’s it’s simple, grinding physical play that isn’t based on scoring is needed, not fancy offensive pretty play. So unless the whole team buys into it this won’t work. The end.

Ya gotta score to win though. Which they can do…the grinding physical defensive play…they cannot do.
The big guys they brought in, just arent effective at what they were brought in for. The guys they traded for, cant do what they were traded for. Tre really messed up.This was always going to be a transition year, they werent going to replace marner and build the team they want in one offseason. Which is why it was ridiculous to trade away our first for 2026. No one in the entire league was offering a 1st and top end prospect for Carlo at that time.
Look at what most top end teams do (the bruins did it last year), have a down year in the middle of going for it years, get some picks and higher end 1st rounder – replenish the cupboard….then get back on the playoff horse.
Its what the leafs should have done this year…..which they are doing….just with no thought or planning. Its just because they arent playing well.Honestly, I dont believe Tre is the right GM for the team (he’s burke 2.0) and we may not have to correct top end players for Berube style. Which means Berube may not get what we pay matthews for out of matthews..
Berube needs to alter and do a hybrid style. -
Ya gotta score to win though. Which they can do…the grinding physical defensive play…they cannot do.
The big guys they brought in, just arent effective at what they were brought in for. The guys they traded for, cant do what they were traded for.

Berube needs to alter and do a hybrid style.Not all teams need to score shit tons of goals. The Panthers were only 15th in the league last year for instance. Some teams are built around D and some around offence, the leafs went for physical play and D this year and it’s not working.
So either change
1: the game
2: the players who aren’t buying in
3: the coach
4: the gm who would likely change the coach as wellSitting still with no good picks in their hands would be a truly wasted year.
-
Tanking certainly has it’s benefits this year, if they full blown tank it.
No. 3: Keaton Verhoeff, D, 6-foot-4, 212 pounds, North Dakota (NCAA)
Made a gutsy call when he decided to join Victoria teammate Cole Reschny at North Dakota. Reschny was Calgary’s first round pick, 18th overall in 2025, while Verhoeff is expected to go shortly after McKenna in June. He doesn’t possess McKenna’s track record and plays a different position, so it will be fascinating to track Verhoeff’s progress as a draft eligible defenceman in college. The debate will be heavy as to whether he was better off getting more games in the CHL, or utilizing a lighter NCAA schedule to become stronger. Only time will tell. He has checked all the boxes on the way up the developmental ladder from Canada’s Youth Olympic team through gold medals at the U17s and U18 worlds. Most recently, he was Canada’s captain in a bronze medal-winning performance at the Hlinka-Gretzky.
No. 4: Ethan Belchetz, LW, 6-foot-5, 227 pounds, Windsor Spitfires (OHL)
His size always allowed him to dominate youth hockey, and now he is doing the same in the OHL. Last year, Belchetz put up four goals in his third ever OHL game, but tailed off to score just 13 more in the next 53 contests. He roams the ice like he owns it. His hands and feet work well together to create additional space to execute plays. He’s got a big league shot that is effective from distance. I like the fact that he plays in a Windsor lineup with other over-sized players like Chicago prospect AJ Spellacy, and Kings prospect Liam Greentree. Belchetz is a different player, with more offensive upside than both, but he can definitely get some guidance from them on how to navigate his draft season.
No. 5: Ryan Roobroeck, C, 6-foot-4, 216 pounds, Niagara IceDogs (OHL)
Has already set a high bar for himself, having put up 41 goals and 86 points in his draft minus-one season in the OHL. That production is made all the more impressive considering there’s been a lot of noise in the organization since the day he was drafted. With Frank Evola now running the ship, things will settle down this season. Evola brought in head coach Krys Barch who was a solid OHL producer with size and someone Roobroeck can take mentorship from. Another great late birthday player in this draft, Roobroeck’s final ranking will come down to how he progresses in non point-producing situations.
Do you think any of those guys will be available in the 3rd round when the Leafs get a pick?

They have the wrong players for physical and to play D. They lost one of their best defensive forward and cant rely on others to make it up. Mainly because “others” choose not to do it. Its laziness.
1. The game isnt changing….Dubas tried to and failed miserably.
2. I dont think we have the right GM to change the players for the better. The trades he’s made so far havent been good.
3. I think the only thing we can do as leafs fans, is hope the MLB FA market kicks into gear in the next week or two, and hope the spring season starts real soon so we can forget about this team for a year or two.
4. Actually I think we have the Olympics….so that will be a nice break…and then spring season.Lets go Raptors? Meh basketball.

Leafs keep their 1st round pick in 2026 if it’s in the top 5. Which means, if the season ended today, they’d be drafting 5th overall with just under a .500 record. If they lose to the Blues, 4th overall.

Ok but I don’t see them finishing that low. They may not be very good but they’re better than they’ve been playing. There are too many guys with NMCs or NTCs to move out to tank properly.

lol I’m not a big fan of basketball but yeah I’ll still say go raptors 👍
And I get what you’re saying about Marner but there is still two things about him that didn’t fit with what the Tre/Berube wanted to do:
A: great defensively yes but not Berube’s physical style of D so no, he wouldn’t fit (a coaching error imo, just saying)
B: he wouldn’t fit this have cost $15 million to stay in Ontario to get his $7.5 mill take home. Why? Because he isn’t the only one making this choice, his wife, his dad, and other members of his family have a say in this as well, not just the hockey player. So anyone believing he’s offer a discount is a dreamer (sorry had to say that since there are a few here, not you, who want to believe that only Mitch makes the call here)Personally I only think that unless there’s something as dramatic as a coaching change to change the approach and get this team to get better this season won’t likely turn out that well, if a goalie catches absolute fire it might turn out different but the team just looks… lost.

I dont think marner was staying for any amount…maybe $15m plus…but hes not worth that.
I dont think he or willie or matthews fit Berubes style…maybe matthews a bit.Ya this team needs a goalie or two to catch fire.
Or finish in the bottom 5…so we keep our pick.

Playing garbage teams at home is going to be a lot different than playing very good / great teams on the road.

See the part that your tiny cuck brain can’t understand is that the season is going to get harder for the Leafs, not easier. More road games vs better teams. They already failed their easy stretch of the season.
Also, the Leafs are still in 2nd last in the East. That means not only do they have to play way better under more difficult circumstances but also all the teams ahead of them have to fall off a cliff. Not just one or two, but 7 or 8. Just to make the wild card. But your dumbass is going to pretend they can still fight for the division lead because they’re “only” 5 points behind. Guess you don’t understand how statistical probability works.
Not literally impossible but a seriously large mountain to climb, not a step ladder.
But leave it delusional typical Leafs fans to get their hopes up after one win vs a lottery team after losing 5 straight prior.

Glad the game was decent but it was against the Blues.
Motivated by losing five in a row, being their coaches old team who is one of the worst in the league, having their primary goal scorer put it in their own net to start the game, newbies playing, now let’s see how they play against the BJs, they’re a step number 2 challenge 👍

CBJ, MTL, CBJ, WSH and PIT.
If this was the same team as last year looking to turn things around, they’d win those 5 games in a row.
Instead, they’ll go 2-2-1.

Right now, the Oilers are as bad as the Leafs.
Technically, they aren’t. They’re close but there’s differences. They’ve shown they can have a horrid start to a season and still go to the Cup Final. Twice.
Skinner definitely sucks and will always prevent them from winning a Cup.
But they have a savior named McJesus and he’s miracled them to the Cup Final twice.
The Leafs hero seems to always have a torn labia and isn’t capable of pulling the entire team that far by himself.

You act like its impossible for them to recover. They easily could….or maybe they dont. The only delusional person continues to be you.
Whether the leafs make the playoffs or not, doesnt impact my life that much.But a 4 game winning streak could easily turn things around…or it may not. Whatever.
Either way im sure you’ll find something to whine about. -

All jokes, I’m with you, I don’t care if they get a wildcard spot if they develop into more of a post season style of team. It’s funny how people bitch about how what they do during the regular season doesn’t matter then they bitch about them not dominating the regular season 🧐

This is funny to you?!?! I expect my team to operate at full throttle for 60 minutes per game for 82 straight games. They should win 16 straight in the playoffs. The PP should be 100%. The PK should be 100%. Every player should put up 100pts, MINIMUM. Goalies should have 0.00GAA and 1.000 Sv%. Anything less is unacceptable. Any player that underperforms should be traded for a better player immediately.
Was my impression good enough?

Agreed. But it has to be done correctly. You can’t tank until 2028. The correct players have to be sold off at the correct time to maximize return while not allowing Boston and Philadelphia to get great 6th overall picks for Carlo and Laughton.

The Leafs simply couldn’t afford to keep both if they wanted to build a more balanced roster (despite JT taking an incredibly team friendly deal and performing well beyond the value for what he is being paid – suck it UG you meat stick) which pretty much everyone agreed they needed to do at this point (yes many said it much earlier and have proven to be right).Now if they have or have not accomplished building said more balanced roster so far is a whole different topic of discussion but the injuries have really impacted this team so far this year – a point that the chicken little types here just seem to ignore entirely.
The numbers so far tell us that the entire Willy is selfish, lazy, and a huge defensive liability and Marner is just an elite playmaker and such a better player than Willy narrative is providing to be complete and utter bullshit so far this regular season. Maybe Willy is in fact a sniper AND an elite playmaker!
And we all know which of those 2 players was effective in games 4-7 in playoffs series in past years and which one was not.
It will be pretty interesting to see how this looks come end of the season.
Who knows Marner may win a cup in Vegas but at this point it looks like he’d be a passenger and not leading them to it.
Things can change, time will tell.
Nothing would please this Leaf fan more than to see a Toronto / Vegas cup final and watch Marner cry while Willy raises the cup lol.
Can you imagine the media circus if it was a Vegas / Leaf final?

Nylander did not have to go to keep Marner. Marner was “replaced” by 3rd line plugs who not only suck but also are under performing compared to Marner. In case you haven’t noticed, you probably haven’t because you’re retarded, this team is teetering between a lottery pick and is 2nd last in the East. This is because management has completed fucked over this team, as Treliving did in Calgary, by losing one of it’s best, most elite players and replaced it with a pile of dog shit.
You can keep dreaming of watching this team beat Vegas for a Cup but at this rate, the Leafs will be tanking, drafting 1st overall while Vegas is actually being a contender. But you won’t understand what you’re watching because you’re a typical brain dead Leafs fan swallowing a meat stick.

Matthews for Schaefer.
Who says no?
Islanders would be retarded to take Matthews for Schaefer and also Matthews would not waive to go to Long Island.
But the Leafs should absolutely rebuild and trade Matthews for something of that level of value. Leafs would be way better off rebuilding and tanking for 2028 than the current bullshit they’re doing now.

I get what you’re saying but I won’t lie, I’m starting to become happy that he only signed for a 4 year deal. Injury or no, Matthews is not playing like he did prior to his current deal.[/quote]
Oh I agree.
He’s no longer a top 10 player he’s drastically falling off, he’s more like a 20 – 30th ranked player. Which is a big problem for the leafs.But to suggest trading him for a kid who hasnt even played 30 games in the nhl is foolish. We’ve seen so many kids explode into to the league and fall right off or plateau.
-
So that the organization and some of it’s most retarded fans run him out of town when things out of his control aren’t going well?[/quote]
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAN.
No one ran him out of town…he left of his own accord.
He simply didnt like you…didnt want to be associated with you….and also couldnt handle the pressure.
Good job. -

The Leafs simply couldn’t afford to keep both if they wanted to build a more balanced roster (despite JT taking an incredibly team friendly deal and performing well beyond the value for what he is being paid – suck it UG you meat stick) which pretty much everyone agreed they needed to do at this point (yes many said it much earlier and have proven to be right).Now if they have or have not accomplished building said more balanced roster so far is a whole different topic of discussion but the injuries have really impacted this team so far this year – a point that the chicken little types here just seem to ignore entirely.
The numbers so far tell us that the entire Willy is selfish, lazy, and a huge defensive liability and Marner is just an elite playmaker and such a better player than Willy narrative is providing to be complete and utter bullshit so far this regular season. Maybe Willy is in fact a sniper AND an elite playmaker!
And we all know which of those 2 players was effective in games 4-7 in playoffs series in past years and which one was not.
It will be pretty interesting to see how this looks come end of the season.
Who knows Marner may win a cup in Vegas but at this point it looks like he’d be a passenger and not leading them to it.
Things can change, time will tell.
Nothing would please this Leaf fan more than to see a Toronto / Vegas cup final and watch Marner cry while Willy raises the cup lol.
Can you imagine the media circus if it was a Vegas / Leaf final?
Nylander did not have to go to keep Marner. Marner was “replaced” by 3rd line plugs who not only suck but also are under performing compared to Marner. In case you haven’t noticed, you probably haven’t because you’re retarded, this team is teetering between a lottery pick and is 2nd last in the East. This is because management has completed fucked over this team, as Treliving did in Calgary, by losing one of it’s best, most elite players and replaced it with a pile of dog shit.
You can keep dreaming of watching this team beat Vegas for a Cup but at this rate, the Leafs will be tanking, drafting 1st overall while Vegas is actually being a contender. But you won’t understand what you’re watching because you’re a typical brain dead Leafs fan swallowing a meat stick.
Awwww look at what a good little doggie you are!
I rang the bell and you came running! So typcial of you to ignore the facts posted and then transition to using some of your favourite words to try and insult people showing everyone what an absolute piece of human garbage you are.
I guess I’m supposed to be all angry and upset that you called me a retard and insinuated that I’m gay or something?
Sorry but I’m not – I mean if I was a 12 year old maybe I’d be upset but even then I’m not sure I would be. I just figure that your behaviour stems from you being so unable to be articulate or speak intelligently or have any sense of decency that you continue to call people retards and the 2nd piece is likely projection at it’s finest.
Not that there is anything wrong with you being gay bud, live your life and love whomever you wanna love!
Can you read? I said if the Leafs wanted to build a more balanced roster they needed to move on from one of the 2 (because they were not going to trade Matthews & JT was going to resign for less or leave) – if they wanted to build a more balanced roster. Sorry if that’s too hard for you to understand, same as the fact that the world doesn’t operate in video game GM mode which is the other thing you seem to just not be able to grasp.
If you hate the Leafs so much why do you come here and post dog shit all day every day? Why not just stay away?
Man your life must really suck.
The fact you started a thread that nobody replied to, then posted a link to it in a reply to try and get someone to engage and got nothing only to make the incredibly pathetic move of replying to your own post in that thread to try and get attention says it all hero.
You are just so pathetic it’s just laughable.
Have a great afternoon, I hope you find some happiness.

Actually I have no interest in ever seeing vegas in the cup final…even if its to see the leafs beat them. The best would be for marner to never see a final. 🙂
Honestly two thing can be true imo. Marner is an elite reg season playmaker and Willy has turned into a great sniper and star playmaker.
As of last year, Marner still had an edge defensively over willie (i havent watched him this year) but willie has the edge on being able to handle pressure and showing up when needed.Marner is old news.
We have Willie styles for the next 6 years….someone needs to move onAnd JT is a BEAST! Anyone who suggested resigning him at a lower aav would be a mistake, is simply an idiot.

Fair points – I said it before Vegas got to a final and I still feel this way – I want that fanbase to suffer through a terrible team for several years like every other fanbase of every other team in this league has had to do, especially when new teams were introduced and used to suck for years! Vegas fans have been spoiled, they will probably always have good ‘ticket sold’ #’s because casinos etc. will always buy tickets but it would be interesting to see how many fans would be in seats game by game if they were a basement dwelling team.
JT is playing so well, and it’s hard not to see that and how Matthews has struggled and wonder if the pressure of wearing the C in Toronto has that big an impact on players? It must be nice for JT to not think “shit I have to go talk to the media for an hour after every single game all year” and just do small interviews and play hockey.

Marner was our best player last year. Unlike Nylander and Matthews, MM played defensively responsible too.
-
This is what matters.
Marner is a complete player. He brought structure to the Leafs.
Funny how the Leafs have guys racking up a ton of pts now that he’s gone, but are obviously a train wreck of a team.
Maybe there’s more to being a good hockey team than just a few guys getting their cookies? Hmm?
Anyhow. The coping and seething is off the charts now that Mitch moved on and Vegas is having success, while the Leafs are an embarrassment. Funny watching some of you still try to defend Willy, like it was the right choice keeping him hahaha.
Cope on, my little Muchachos..

Depends… does he keep crashing? If so where will Matthews be by the end of this contract?
Sometimes holding on is the biggest mistake, and he just doesn’t seem into this team anymore. I hope I’m wrong, but fuck he’s not the stud anymore, take the C off his chest and let him just focus on his game again at least.
-
Didn’t Marner leave because he has a young wife a baby who he believed were at risk in Toronto? So much so he hired private security too.
Can’t blame the guy putting the safety of his family first.Anyone who thinks that Mitch is the only one in his family that has a say in his contract is a flat out fool.
He’s raising a family so safety and cash play a role, therefore privacy is important and no, he doesn’t want to hand out discounts since other family members live off his earnings as well.
It’s cute that there are some people who truly believe that hockey comes first in a player’s life.

Ummm vegas is a WHOLE 5 pts ahead of the leafs. So 5pts is what defines success and embarrassment?
Marner chosed to leave…..he chose to leave you….he didnt like you. Marner CHOSE to leave his hometown team….couldnt cut it when it counts.
Fun in the regular season, disappeared in games 5 -7.-
Ummm 5pts, fewer GP, and vs much hard competition.
No, Marner chose to leave YOU. The fans who act exactly like MAGA does. He left because mgnt tried to play hardball with him. He left because he had to hire security to protect his pregnant wife (or newborn baby I can’t remember) because the psychos (you and the other 5 F’s) were basically left to attack him and the organization did nothing.
Be basically won the 4NFO tourney for Canada. He’s their best playoff performer while he was in TO. Best Leaf they ever drafted and had.
Gone. The team goes downhill. But you still act like everything is normal. lol. Brain rot. Anyhow, enjoy cheering for a loser franchise.

Marner is a complete player except physical play and knowing how to not be a crybaby lol
I’d seriously rather have this current leafs team than have that little whiny ass bitch still with them. Sure he can play, but I don’t like him.
He had as many playoff hits as Knies did last season and way more than Nylander so there goes that attempt of an argument. If the goal of a player being physical is to separate the opponent from the puck, Marner has way more takeaways 99% of the NHL. Only Makar and Slavin, two elite defenseman, had more takeaways than Marner. Out of the top 9 players in takeaways, Marner was the ONLY forward. The rest, all defenders. So following your logic, you’re terribly wrong.
If you want to bitch about the Leafs not having enough “hitters”, guess what? Hyman was the #1 hitter in the playoffs last year despite only playing 15 games. What did the Leafs do with Hyman? They let him walk. Hmm, sounds like a familiar theme of this retarded team to let great players walk. Bennett was #2 in hits, another player the Leafs were too stupid to acquire when his value was less than a 2nd round pick. Another familiar theme of this incompetent management and some even dumber fans for believing in it’s infinite wisdom.
This “cry baby” bullshit is a manufactured narrative that simpletons believe, not because it’s actually verifiably true. You haven’t played with him or have any fucking clue whether or not he is an actual cry baby. You see a few clips of him screaming in slow motion on TV but you have zero idea how that was received. I could just as easily say Matthews and Nylander are cry babies for the way they sulk after they lose playoff games.

Shut the fuck up, in today’s NHL if you touch someone it’s called a hit.
I’ve hated Marner since he played here in London and I’ll never like his wussy ass approach to the game.
Keep jerking off for him tho, yes he can play, but he’ll never be a man in my eyes, just a boy.
-
Fun in the regular season, disappeared in games 5 -7.
Where was Tavares in game 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 vs. the Panthers? Oh right, getting paid 11 million dollars to score ZERO points and being on the ice for THE MOST goals against.
But now that he makes less money, I’m sure he’s going to be a superstar in the playoffs. Oh wait, he’s on pace to not even qualify for them? Damn, what a huge improvement this team made with all those savings!
I absolutely love how the absolute biggest morons in Leafs Nation are the first to PRETEND Marner wasn’t a playoff performer but conveniently pretend like Tavares has been a playoff success of any kind.
Well, reality check, just like your libtards, Tavares promises a lot and delivers nothing. Tavares has 53 career playoff points in 75 playoff games.
Tavares has 31 playoff points in 51 playoff games with the Leafs. And he’s -15. Because he absolutely sucks balls defensively and offensively he disappears when it matters most. You’re just too stupid to admit it because he wears the right pajamas. You just love being in cults.

Go fuck yourself as you shut the fuck up.
Well, we know you’ve always hated him and are incapable of being unbiased. It explains why you’re so hellbent on being wrong about him and just believing in bullshit because of hatred.
Yes, just like Kadri was an immature “boy” when he left but somehow became a man when he held the Cup over his head on another team. Same, same with Marner. Same, same.

I never hated Kadri, at least he’s a man.
Marner is not. Cute little passer who plays decent D but that’s about it. On pace for a whole 90P this year too… wow.

I love how people say Marner is “only” a 90 point player or he’s “only” a regular season player.
Reality is, that “only” 90 points is going to get Vegas into the playoffs while Tavares and Nylander, both on pace for 105 points, are going to miss the playoffs in large part due to their defensive incompetence.
I guess you’d rather have players score 105 points, be giant defensive liabilities, soft as baby shit and miss the playoffs. Man, you must have REALLY loved the Kessel era.
And then, maybe then, you morons will understand the definition of “only” a regular season player because Tavares and Nylander will “only” have played regular season games after they miss the playoffs this year.

Lmao.
Bruce has completely lost it.
Holy fuck because I don’t like that crybaby Marner? Yes he’s talented but he’s still a crybaby douche lol

lol no, it’s the definition of not caring
It’s just like I won’t hang out with losers who are willing to buy dinner/drinks/etc.
Tbh, it’s primarily how pouty he is, he doesn’t have to be physical, look at Willie ffs, he isn’t. But Mitch, he cries about shit or looks like he’s about to and I can’t stand guys like that. I’ve had part of my brain removed and just had titanium put into me in September and do I cry/whine/pout about it? No. I just keep going. And Mitch just isn’t that type, he’s a crybaby, and that’s why I don’t like him.

I get what you’re saying but I won’t lie, I’m starting to become happy that he only signed for a 4 year deal. Injury or no, Matthews is not playing like he did prior to his current deal.
He’s no longer a top 10 player he’s drastically falling off, he’s more like a 20 – 30th ranked player, which is a big problem for the leafs. To suggest trading him for a kid who hasnt even played 30 games in the nhl is foolish. We’ve seen so many kids explode into to the league and fall right off or plateau. -Fakesies
Definitely not top 20. Probably 20-30 somewhere.
At some point people are going to have to admit that letting a 100 pt. guy, in his prime, walk for nothing was a huge mistake. There is a reason no other team in recent memory has done that.

Leafs fans will never admit it. They will just cope until the end of time.
There is a reason, the reason is the Leafs are run by retards. Treliving is a nepo baby, franchise destroyer.

It would be great if one of our Dmen had a point shot.
Absolutely. There are two players that we haven’t replaced in close to a decade.
Dion Phaneuf
Roman Polak
Have whatever biases someone might about these players. If you had them both here, now, in their prime it solves all the D concerns.
Take some notes here Brad.

Both absolutely sucked balls defensively, especially Phaneuf. Another wonderful display how you know absolutely nothing about hockey.
If the Leafs goal was to tank, I want 6 guys like Phaneuf. Leafs already have one, his name is Rielly.

Ouch.
I have felt for at least 5 years that this “core” would never win anything. At this point, I want the teardown and rebuild to begin, so can’t say this is bugging me too much so far… Except it’s against the Habs, an effort would be nice.

Tough game. This sucks. Elbows up and get back at it.
Losing to the habs on a Saturday this bad during this lovely string of losses with only 1 win is gonna poison the shit out of the leafs’ confidence

Put Matthews on the LTIR
Why? He’s skating and close.
-

lol no, it’s the definition of not caring
It’s just like I won’t hang out with losers who are willing to buy dinner/drinks/etc.
Tbh, it’s primarily how pouty he is, he doesn’t have to be physical, look at Willie ffs, he isn’t. But Mitch, he cries about shit or looks like he’s about to and I can’t stand guys like that. I’ve had part of my brain removed and just had titanium put into me in September and do I cry/whine/pout about it? No. I just keep going. And Mitch just isn’t that type, he’s a crybaby, and that’s why I don’t like him.
No, it’s the definition of being a whiner.
You keep saying Marner is a crybaby, keep saying he pouts, keep saying he whines and yet have zero evidence to prove it. It’s a figment of your imagination. Maybe there’s some radio wave frequency interference with the titanium giving you false memories or creating scenarios that don’t exist or are greatly exaggerated. But it’s not reality.
Furthermore, the biggest whiner in the NHL for a very long time, was Sidney Crosby. He was a crying bitch for years, especially towards referees. Guess what? Didn’t matter. Still won multiple times. Why? Because he was a dedicated two-way player with drive and determination. You have no idea how much or how little any amount of “whining” actually made the team worse. Looks to be a lot of whining coming from Matthews that he doesn’t have his #1 playmaker anymore. Looks to be a lot of whining that the Leafs are the 6th worst team in the NHL and 2nd worst in the East. Looks to be a lot of whining that the Leafs PP, PP and 5v5 play all absolutely suck. Why? Because the Leafs allowed an elite player to walk away, replaced him with a pile of dog shit and are now surprised it’s not working.

What successful nhl team has a captain who arrives to games in his fanciest clothes and carrying a purse? NHL players, the tough ones that clubs win championships with, don’t carry purses. They don’t have a purse collection. Imo there’s something strange with how Matthews dressed up for the cameras. He’s just not a guy other players will follow into battle. We should have kept JT as captain.

All you Marner knob polishers, whatever you do, do NOT watch how the Vegas game ended, LMFAO.
At least MM can go home now without needing private security to protect his wife and child. A mistake like that in TO and the crazies would be knocking on his door.

Having a C stitched to his jersey wouldn’t have made Tavares any less of a useless pile of shit vs. Florida last year. Tavares is currently the de facto captain and the Leafs are absolutely horrible. It makes no difference.
If Matthews isn’t capable of being the captain, the team needs to be rebuilt regardless.

Is Vegas in 2nd last place in the West now? 6th worst in the league?
Pretty sure Nylander and Tavares got absolutely bitch slapped on Hockey Night in Canada by the Montreal Canadiens but it’s all good because they scored some points in the losing effort and have fantastic hair.

If Matthews and Nylander had the character of the guys in your avatar we would have won a couple Cups. Those two greats (Gilmore and Clarke) would gladly trade a bloody nose for a team win. Matthews and Nylander would never make a sacrifice that could give them a scare. Trade those two selfish players

And as much as I loved Clark and Gilmour, they didn’t win a Cup in Toronto either. Gilmour won when the team was build completely solid. Clark never won anything despite his heart. Blah blah Kerry Fraser, they still lost Game 7 vs LA. And never got it together again after that either. Why? Because the Leafs don’t build good teams. They occasionally have some talented players but not enough of a good mixture to make it all work as one complete team. The problem is that to win a Cup you need a TEAM. You need the correct ingredients and the correct amount of those ingredients or it doesn’t work.
Matthews, Marner and Nylander were capable of winning a Cup if the Leafs had surrounded them with the correct players at the correct positions. They traded heart filled, grit players like Kadri. Let Hyman walk as a UFA. Made Rielly their anchor on D. These were massive managerial mistakes. They decided to bring in Tavares and it ruined the balance of the team. They had no D. They had no supporting cast. They had no success.

Matthews carries a purse and is a fashion boy. Nylander is a double flamingo softy. We win nothing with these two as the leaders.
Both these guys would never get their nose bloodied. And now Matthews has a chronic back injury compounding his play. Trade these two now. -

But the club has been really good for quite a while though. Until this season, of course. Some knew the fall would come losing Marner and Matthews needed Marner. So that’s losing one and a half top players.

Both are garbage.

Remember when it was all shanahans fault?
Hes laughing now
Hardly. He’s been gone for a matter of months, and there isn’t a person alive that thought the Leafs were going to breeze through this year. I’ve been saying for literally over a year that Marner had to be booted into the sun, 2025-2026 was going to be a down year or a complete write off, then the Leafs would have cap space and flexibility to improve. Now, I did NOT predict that next year’s UFA class was going to be coming straight off the short bus, but what can ya do?
Knies is still improving, Cowan is playing much better than I expected, JT is a stud, Willy is doing his usual thing and improving a bit defensively, (yes, I understand that bar is exceptionally low). Matthews will get going playing with Knies and Cowan, book it.

There is nothing this team can do to fix the mess it created. Shanahan was a retard who had his puppet Dubas. Treliving was another puppet who has never proven he can build anything other than the garbage he left behind in Calgary after he lost their stars for next to nothing but problems. They have no elite prospects, they have no 1st round pick until 2028 and the current collection of players is bad enough to almost be a lottery team. Every dinosaur on D will get older and they have little to no hope of any UFAs solving their problems.
This team fucked itself and this year is a preview of what is to come as they are circling the drain and will be rebuilding sooner rather than later.
Their only hope is to fire Treliving now to guarantee they can trade all their assets over 25 years old for maximum value and start the rebuild correctly this time.
-

Hes laughing now
He’s not laughing, he’s working for the NHL because no good team will hire him. He’ll end up in some dump like Buffalo and continue to be a failed executive. Treliving is also a failure. This mess isn’t on one or the other of them. They’re both failures.

Wrong!
Dubas destroyed this team with his NMC giveaways like Oprah.
If it wasn’t for that – little bitchy mitchy his muffins and playoff failure/fear would’ve been outta Toronto and a FAR superior Rantanen would’ve been a Leaf and dominated as he usually does playoff time.
That never happened cause Tre could only ask the little greedy shit to waive and bitch said no. Made up fake claims that cops refuted and other teammates said they didn’t hear about.
Enter dumb dumb tre – trading 1st rd picks for Carlo/Laughton.
Dubas destroyed this team and Tre did terrible with what was left.
Who knows about Shanny. Nobody here can ever say factually his level of involvement in the contract deals etc.
But blame past present future is spread to 2 people.
You gotta either be deaf or an incel to not understand that.

I will respond to stupid just won’t quote it.

You type better – I hockey better.
Never played a game of Jr. C in my life. But I’m sure some guys in here did and there’s nothing wrong with that. At least they accomplished you never could – share and leave your parents basement.
Enough of you today, Mr. Mercedes.

Then you’d be talking to yourself a lot, which actually tracks.
Your crusade to go against Hall of Famers continues with Shanny eh?!
Shanahan was a fantastic player. Terrible executive. Just like Tavares is a fantastic one-way, offense only, regular season player but terrible playoff performer who has never won anything in his NHL career. Really great guy though. But not a winner.
You type better – I hockey better.
You hockey better? Must be why all your hockey opinions are as retarded as your ability to type them up.
Never played a game of Jr. C in my life.
Oh right, you were busy in the timers box during the games and jock sniffing with the puck bunnies after the games.
But I’m sure some guys in here did and there’s nothing wrong with that. At least they accomplished you never could – share and leave your parents basement.
You know a lot about basements, maybe that’s because you spent so much time living in them recovering from your CTE that’s left you retarded.
Enough of you today, Mr. Mercedes.
Enough of your retardation, come back when you’ve found a clue and learned how to click a big red button to quote.

Apparently the leafs have traded away 40 draft picks including 7 first rounders since Matthews got here.
Not a way to build a team.
So much for using marners money to build depth.
Trade away players, get picks and finish in the bottom 5 this year. This team has needed a step back season for years.
Trade Laughton for what he should have been acquired for. A 3rd -

Trade Laughton for what he should have been acquired for. A 3rdThe silver lining for tanking this season is there are some solid options at 3rd-5th overall, some big body players, solid RHD etc. I’m actually not too keen on McKenna. He’s a winger, he’s small and he seems like another Taylor Hall. Still probably a dangerous offensive player but obviously not what the Leafs need more of.
That being said, when Matthews returns, Tanev returns, Stolarz returns and so on, it’s going to be really hard for the Leafs to actually be THAT bad unless they trade everybody, which they won’t do this year. Which means the dreaded “6th overall” scenario where the Leafs miss the playoffs but still surrender a high, top 10-15 pick to Boston.
The Leafs will have to first, fire Treliving, second, trade all expiring contracts in 2026 and again in 2027. You trade Matthews, Nylander and everybody else over 25 at the 2027 draft. You tank in 2028. Tank again in 2029. Hope you can sign McDavid to a max contract (Leafs will have unlimited cap space by now) and then compete again in 2030 with a new crop of 1st round picks, top prospects, lotter players and maybe a slim chance at adding McDavid as the leader of the new group of young players on ELC. Keep Knies, Cowan and Danford and keep adding through the draft with what few picks we still have until 2028.

The club was a shiny new thing that gave Toronto sports fans hope. Once the lustre started wearing off, and we became frustrated by the cracks in the pavement (Carnival iykyk), it was over. Then the writing on the wall with Marner leaving, it’s was over. Shakespearean tragedy mixed with an Adam Sandler comedy. Neither are my thing. I don’t understand how anyone would stick around for another rebuild.

STILL Dominating! I won’t stop until I have 1000 alts and every board is ONLY ME.
Actually, I can’t stop. My mental health crisis is not being taking serious, and everyone needs to apologize to Marner for being so mean. It really hurt my feelings. Especially dozzer, he was the meanest.

Its more definition of the leafs organization.They simply cannot seem to get their shit together or do what is required of them. Those 1st rounders should have never been traded last year.
Fire Tre.But its still early, they could still sneak into the playoffs.
Either way. Fire Tre!

Wait til the end of the year so the leafs have the best chance in finishing in the bottom 5!!!!
The leafs finish 28th overall, and as he’s smiling they boot his ass on live tv, I’d love it 😍

About to see what matthews is made of.
If needs to come back and carry this team for the next little while, prove that he doesnt need marner to be a dominant player.Matthews needs to nut TF up, for sure. Knies/34/Cowan, let that line ride for as long as it takes to get things sorted.
Damn, I wish Mitchy-poo was still here to carry us. We could really use his *checks notes* 2 assists in the last 7 games, -5, and the most brutal OT giveaway you’ve ever seen. Nice, dry hair, though.

In hindsight, the Carlo and Laughton trades hurt. But Tre was trying to do what he could to push the Leafs over the top, and that comes at a cost. The Leafs almost beat the eventual cup winners, after losing their #1 goalie in game 1. Granted, they got butt fucked in games 5 and 7, but that’s what the Panthers do, grind you down over a long series. The Panthers kicked the shit out of every other team they played last year, the Leafs were the only team to take them to 7.
Carlo was solid last year, but fell off a cliff this year. Hopefully, he can turn it around.
Laughton was terrible last year, but is playing much better this year. Hopefully, he can keep it up.

I won’t keep looking at last year, the team is built notably different now and is playing a different game. Supposed to be more physical North/South hockey, some seem to be buying in and others not so much.
They’ve been just burdened with a shit ton of injuries. I mean come on, their primary shut down d man has had two concussions now, their captain was supposed to have a comeback year and nope, not yet, they’ve got a goaltending tandem who are supposed to split the season down the middle and they haven’t even been dressed in the same game yet.
Unless their luck changes and changes soon, this season won’t start looking any better.

I disagree in that they’d still suck with their best player Marner. He set the tone for the team. He made Matthews successful. He bore the brunt of criticism so Nylander could go float around center ice looking for breakaway passes. He was everything to the team.
But Brad is an awful GM.

this is the 4th season in a row there they have trended down by a decent chunk in xgf, possession whatever you want to look at. Marner was there for 3 of them
Tre has chipped around the edges to try and make the team bigger and tougher to play against..but they are just slower and worse. -

The goalies did mask a lot of the problems this team had but it was more manageable for the goalies to do so last year than this year.
The Leafs PP and PK have both been horrid and both are directly connected to Marner as he was a piece of both units that had more success with him than without him. Last year, when Matthews torn his labia, Marner carried the team on his back. This year, the guys “carrying” the team are losing games while scoring points because their defense is atrocious.
Treliving is a dumbass and a bad GM. He’s failed at every team he’s ever been at. He’s like JFJ, maybe worse because at least JFJ was originally hired as a rookie GM so there was the chance of untapped potential. Treliving failed so hard in Phoenix and Calgary, nobody in this organization should have even given him an interview.
The dumbest fans out there screamed for the team to under go radical change. They got what they screamed for and go figure, the idiots were wrong. Had Treliving had run the team back from last year and done minor patches to address the depth players, odds are they’re sitting in a wild card spot or better right now and still have the same chance they had last year of pushing the Panthers to Game 7. Hell, with the exact same team, the Panthers might miss the playoffs and the Leafs wouldn’t have to worry about them at all.

You can look at xGF for the Leafs but you can’t forget the fact that whatever they did last year, got them to Game 7 vs. the Panthers. That team, if kept together, could still be where they were last year. You have to consider that other teams are also in flux every year so even if the Leafs had some stats in decline, other teams in the division are also suffering from the same decline.
If the Leafs had been swept by the Panthers, it’d be a different conversation. But they went to Game 7. That should have been enough to give that group another chance with tweaks such as dumping Kampf, Jarnkrok and other depth players that did nothing positive.

Leafs won 1 round big fucking deal, got demolished in gm 7.. not a chance this years team with marner is much better. and it would just be a mirage.
Not to mention the tiny little detail that MARNER DIDN’T WANT TO RE-SIGN WITH THE FUCKING LEAFS. Holy, some people just love to beat the living fuck out of a dead horse.
Don’t look now, but there are already Vegas fans with buyers remorse. Only 7.7ish years to go, suckers!

They got demolished because they lost to the best team in the NHL. Nobody else got that close, not even McDavid. McDavid had 1 meaningless goal vs. the Panthers last year. Same goes for Kucherov. The Panthers stopped everybody. Only the Leafs got them that far.
This team is way better with Marner than without him, the stats and the facts are obvious.
-
Not to mention the tiny little detail that MARNER DIDN’T WANT TO RE-SIGN WITH THE FUCKING LEAFS. Holy, some people just love to beat the living fuck out of a dead horse.
Don’t look now, but there are already Vegas fans with buyers remorse. Only 7.7ish years to go, suckers!
If Marner wanted to leave, he would have been playing for the Hurricanes. It was only after the retards in management and the retards in the fanbase, such as yourself, forced him to move on.
Are Vegas fans sitting dead last in their conference and 5th worst in the league? Those Vegas fans seem to be as clueless as the retards who ran him out of Toronto. They’ll learn the hard way, as they always do.

Pretty sick that I, personally, forced a millionaire to relocate his family due to hurt feelings.
Also, I’m not 100% sure of the timeline, but according to some reports the nixed trade to Carolina was AFTER Marner rejected $13Mx8. God, I’m so glad he didn’t take that deal, we’d be subject to 8 more years of playoff failure. Now, if the season is in fact a write off, (it’s not), we can do a full rebuild.

The snowflake doesn’t blame itself for the avalanche.
You’re glad that the team is dead last in the East and 5th worst in the league? You must love it when the Leafs lose I guess. Pretty retarded to believe that.
Playoff failure? You mean the rest of them without him will fail to make the playoffs entirely? Seems to be that’s the true playoff failure now. You mean the guy who has more career playoff points than Tavares? And Matthews. And Nylander. And had direct involvement in 3 GWG vs. the Panthers last year? Boy, if that’s failure, just imagine how much more they’re going to fail now that they won’t make the playoffs AND have kept all the inferior playoff performers and added nothing to replace the guy who was #1 in playoff points among them.
-
I disagree in that they’d still suck with their best player Marner. He set the tone for the team. He made Matthews successful. He bore the brunt of criticism so Nylander could go float around center ice looking for breakaway passes. He was everything to the team.
But Brad is an awful GM.
this is the 4th season in a row there they have trended down by a decent chunk in xgf, possession whatever you want to look at. Marner was there for 3 of them
Tre has chipped around the edges to try and make the team bigger and tougher to play against..but they are just slower and worse.Tre is garbage. Dubas was pretty bad too. I’ve been saying this the whole time. The Leafs could’ve done so well with Matthews/Marner if they surrounded them properly. If they identified the culture issue early on instead of pretending they’ll change, or it’s not bad because the fans like him (Nylander) then the Leafs had crazy potential.
Keep Kadri
Trade Nylander
Keep Hyman
Trade Rielly
Keep Marchment/Verhaghe etc..
Freddy didn’t need to go (he’s slowing down now)
Now Minten is gonna be good.Honestly, just surround Matthews/Marner with Canadians who play physical and are defensively sound. Also, you need a goon.
-
-
Sources have said Anthony Stolarz has quietly requested a trade. Unlikely to see him back in a Leaf uniform.
You forgot to switch to your Eklund account before you made this retarded attempt at an impersonation.
-
In hindsight, the Carlo and Laughton trades hurt. But Tre was trying to do what he could to push the Leafs over the top, and that comes at a cost. The Leafs almost beat the eventual cup winners, after losing their #1 goalie in game 1. Granted, they got butt fucked in games 5 and 7, but that’s what the Panthers do, grind you down over a long series. The Panthers kicked the shit out of every other team they played last year, the Leafs were the only team to take them to 7.
Carlo was solid last year, but fell off a cliff this year. Hopefully, he can turn it around.
Laughton was terrible last year, but is playing much better this year. Hopefully, he can keep it up.[/quote]
“In hindsight”? The laughton trade was terrible from the get go and absolutely desperation move and huge overpayment.
Same with the carlo one, didnt need to include a high end prospect.
Both moves could be disastrous for the leafs. -

Marner and matthews were part of the culture issue. Specially in the playoffs when marner would whine and fold after game 4.
Keeping kadri wasnt the solution, he’d be suspended every playoffs
Freddy needed to go, he choked too often.
Should have kept Marchment, I agree.
Trading Nylander, the one player who showed up consistently in the playoffs and has improved almost year over year the past 3-4 years, is as expected and AA braindead move. -

Leafs added Carlo and Laughton, Florida added Jones and Marchand. easy to see why one team is successful -

Wrong. Again. Marner wanted to leave but didnt want to be traded. Wanted to control of his destination and wasnt going to accept a mid season trade.
No one forced anything. Its pretty common knowledge that he was interested in vegas mid season.
Fans didnt run anyone out of town…the player left of his own free will. Get over it, stop whining all the time. -

Fuck it, lets have some fun.
Knies for Quinn Hughes, straight up. How much of an extension do you need to make that deal?
Never mind, he still has another year left. Can’t work out an extension till next July. Would be a VERY risky move.
Who says no? Does anyone do that deal?

Contract concern? Meh… Rielly and Knies then for Hughes and a pick, any pick, 7th round pick, protected at a top 30 finish. 👍
-

100% Hughes is going to the NJD. It’s just a matter of when and for how much. Either Vancouver moves him now and gets something valuable. Or, they get nothing at all.
This is precisely why the Leafs should consider moving Matthews, Nylander etc. with term left on their deals. The value they could and would bring back would allow the Leafs to rebuild in 2-3 years instead of the usual 5-7 years. They just have to do it properly.
-
Meh… Rielly and Knies then for Hughes and a pick, any pick, 7th round pick, protected at a top 30 finish. 👍
I don’t think that does it. The only reason it might is that clearly Vancouver knows Hughes wants to go to NJ… but then that is a problem for the Leafs also, and now you have given up probably the 2nd best player on the team.
I wish they could get Hughes. one of the top 2 dmen in the league is just about as valuable as an elite 1st line center, which the Leafs also no longer have.

You are 100% correct on Vancouver knowing Hughes wants to go to the NJD. You can’t give up the Leafs #1 player under 25 for that with that type of risk attached.
If the Leafs want a guy like Hughes, they have to blow it up and draft one.

-

Maccelli scratched for the game. He’s been, as predicted, a fucking failure. Kerfoot 2.0.
A total Dubas 2020 player.
Just a shame Tre sucks as much as well feared he would.
I don’t know who’s good now-a-days. But I’ve been managing an airline for 2 years now and I’m pretty sure I could do a better job than most as GM of an NHL team.
Just draft/trade for players who care. Guys who crash and bang, but have skill. Like Clarke and Tucker. The Leafs problem is that they never instigate shit anymore. They just hope the game stays quiet and hopefully that allows their skill to shine through. Benoit sometimes get ornery, maybe Domi at time. But when’s the last time you seen them go truck someone opening shift to set the tone?
Honestly if I played against the Leafs I’d fucking target Nylander. I’d run him into the boards from behind, then kick Domi’s ass.

Is Nylander playing?
Actually, yes. You may have noticed an incredible pass on the game tying goal where if he was wearing #16 you would have jizzed in your pants.
Oh, and he also scored the game winner in OT.

Are you actually surprised? Maybe he missed the Willy display of awesomeness simply due to the fact he was rage pounding his pud after watching Marner miss on the shootout and cost his team a point, not even what a week after coughing up that muffin in OT to – yet cost his team another point?
Vegas has 5 more points & the same # of regulation wins than the Leafs in the same # of games.
Vegas has 5 more OLT points – that’s the difference.
I don’t remember hearing that Vegas had 7 starters out at any given point in the season. Maybe the chicken little crowd needs to chill out a bit?
Great to see Wonder Woll have himself a game and some of the regulars back in the line up.
On to a 5pm game tomorrow vs the Caps – it would be nice if they could go on a bit of a heater.

At this point we should all know what you get with Willie. He’s going to float, he’s going to have lazy backchecks, that’s who he is. But his give-a-fuck meter has been rising every year.I’ve had the “pleasure” of being around a lot of Oiler fans, and for a long time they wanted to run Drai out of town for the same issues. Now look at him.

So it’s looking like Domi might be watching the game from the box today. He was only “covering” for Nylander in practice. I was hoping for more from him this year but it’s a needed attempt at a reset, here’s a wish for it to work out.
Nope, Nylander is actually sick lol

Either Willy gets traded or Chief gets sacked.

This team really is garbage. They have no chemistry or fight. Usually, when you have injuries, the team pulls together and fights harder. The saying about reevaluating at U.S. Thanksgiving has come and gone. Now we get to wait and get totally embarrassed with no first rounders for two years and not much on the farm. They aren’t even exciting to watch. They’re wretched to watch and very unwatchable. I’ll tune out again tomorrow night as I know they’ll get wrecked in Pittsburgh.

This all happened because Marner left.
Keep denying it, but you all know it’s true.
He shielded Nylander’s one dimensional play. He was Papi’s better half. He made the right plays at the right time.
Now it’s all gone. The magic is gone. Magic is gone (to Vegas)
So good.
So, so, gooooood! 😂
lol yup, he’s on pace for 80P and the Vegas fans are LOVING him 😂
Leafs suck as well to be fair, but Marner is no f’n god of hockey lol

Can’t they get rid of Rielly for like, anything?
If he keeps scoring these fluke goals, maybe somebody might be stupid enough to take him, otherwise, it’ll take the 2028 1st round pick which should be the most untouchable 1st round pick in the history of the franchise.

First move to getting better appears to get rid of your boy Domi and his -13…. bug keep telling us how bad Tavares and Nylander are….. we have not heard enough of it.

Hello pot,

Leafs in a playoff spot yet? You can keep your retarded thoughts to yourself until they are.
So keep him to make the cap minimum while they rebuild but can still suck ass?
You yourself have said he’s only really good in the postseason. So, if you’re right, and I’m sincerely not disagreeing with you, maybe he is the perfect guy for a rebuilding team, absolute shit in the regular season but could be moved for a couple decent prospects/picks (not high end) at the deadline? I’m genuinely speaking with respect here UG, what’s your perspective with him?

Trade everyone over 25 at the correct moment. Some guys need to be traded sooner rather than later, others you can feed them playing time to pump their value and trade them later on.
If you’re talking about Domi, the playoffs don’t matter anymore so recover his value before you trade him. You won’t get anything for him now if you sell low.
OEL, Tanev, Carlo, McCabe, those types you trade at the deadline and some desperate playoff team or contender will overpay with a 1st round pick and prospects.
Other guys like Matthews and Nylander, you trade at the draft. When the team is gutted, eventually Tavares moves on too, so does Rielly and so on.

Nice win. The season is far from over.
First regulation win in 10 games.
2nd last in the East. Boston is still drafting 6th overall plus Minten for Carlo.
Season is a lot closer to being over than being successful. You can’t win a Cup in November but you can lose one. Leafs dug a hole so big, they need a miracle to get out of it.

Oh, my bad. So, by your math, thats 5 points in 9 games, much better. What a steal at only $12M.
His team isn’t a lottery team in spite of him, not because of him. Also, they would have an identical record to the Leafs if not for 5 additional loser points.

No, in spite of having AHL goaltending, not in spite of Marner. Unlike the Leafs, Marner and the Knights have overcome adversity, not sit in the basement of the NHL. But you must like basements, that’s what you’re accustomed to.

6 most minutes amongst forwards. Riding coat tails. #overpaid for such low minutes.
2nd only to Eichel in points, plays in all situations, point per game, his team isn’t tanking. And he hasn’t even been at his best yet.
Money well spent.
-
-
Ice time pretty low for a guy who gets so many opportunities. Nylander the better even strength player so far this year. What a beaut.
20 min per night, 2nd most on the team. You must be smoking some of that blue and white crack again.
Nylander will be the most beautiful player to miss the playoffs.
-

Not last night. Which may I had you brought up with your 2 points post. If he is averaging 20 and had under 17 in a tight game maybe coach is losing trust in him?
Totally lost trust in a guy who had a highlight reel wrap around goal and 2 points, 2nd star of the game.

Just being respectful to others…. but keep grasping at straws. You are so angry all the time…. must be such a miserable life…..
Yes, respect my opinion, which is correct, that the Leafs absolutely suck this season and made a mistake letting one of their elite two-way players leave without replacing him.
The grasping at straws is 100% coming from your hatred of Marner and trying to cope that this team is dog shit without him.
Angry with this sad sack of shit franchise? Absolutely. As is my right. Miserable life? Not even close.

I am going to wait until playoffs before going off the deep end.
There’s an 80% there won’t be any playoffs for this team. And in the 20% chance of a miracle they do make it, it’ll be a short run.
This team isn’t winning a Cup this season. Keep BeLeafing though.

I’m sincerely reaching the point where I hope the leafs don’t win a cup til Marner retires and gets hired as their GM so he can fucking fail too just so UG SHUTS THE FUCK UP
Hey everyone, I’m still thinking that was a solid win over the Pens by the Leafs 👍 Cheers
Stupdid Marner slurpers. I was a fan of marner, but he wasnt perfect and he choose to leave.
The leafs never made it past the 2nd round with Marner…marner barely produced in games 5- 7 for 9 years.
We arent missing winning the cup because Marner left and Vegas isnt winning the cup because of marner.
This marner BS and the morons who spewed need to STFU.Now with that said. The leafs are truly missing regular season marner.
And it was a very solid win against the pens, Woll looks pretty good.
-
So basically the same as when marner was here.
Or, take the Cup Champs to Game 7 in the 2nd round where he was directly involved in 3 GWGs.
But yeah, giving Boston a 6th overall pick and tanking is definitely better.
-
and that’s where the issue lies. Cause it’s not.
Until they aren’t almost dead last in the East, aren’t almost a lottery team and aren’t missing the playoffs playing mostly terrible hockey but instead are winning the division, in the 2nd round of the playoffs and taking the defending Cup Champs to Game 7, I most definitely am correct.
Accept it.

And marner got a whole 1 assist….1 WHOLE POINT in the final 4 games of that series. 1 assist in the FOUR FINAL GAMES!
So hes not the reason the leafs took the panthers to 7 games.Two things can be true…..Marner wasnt the reason they took the panthers to 7 games and yes Tre trading a 1st and minten for Carlo was a garbage trade…..and the leafs organization is kinda of joke.
All can be true. -

All can be true.GWG and two primary assists on 2 GWG. He had as many goals vs the Panthers as McDavid.
Facts are facts. He directly helped beat the Panthers 3 times.
Where was Tavares and Nylander after Game 3? Ghosts. Defensive nightmares. Facts.

The fact is he disappeared again the final 4 games just like he has for the most part for games 5-7 the past 9 years.
And where was Tavares, Nylander and Matthews in the final 4 games? You know Michael Jordan didn’t win a single NBA championship if you eliminate all the years he won a championship right? If you pretend like the positives never happened, then it’s easy to become fixated on this brain dead idiotic opinion that Marner “disappeared” when in reality, he did more positive things than anybody you slurp on a daily basis.
The facts are simple. Tavares and Nylander absolutely sucked balls vs the Panthers after Game 3. You can’t talk about “disappearing” when the facts are slapping you the face like Tavares’ balls slap your chin. Tavares disappeared. Not Marner. Marner DIRECTLY led to scoring THREE GAME WINNING GOALS against the Panthers, including in Game 6. He did his part.
Facts.
Get over it.
Move on.
Quick being a fucking baby.Get over the fact that the Leafs made the wrong moves and now they absolutely are a worse team because of it.
Do it quick.

Tavares absolutely sucked vs. the Panthers in the playoffs last year. He had 0 goals and 0 points in Game 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7. The one game he did score in, Game 3, they lost, because he had 4 giveaways and was a minus 1.
And Nylander? 0 goals, 0 assists, 0 points in Game 4, Game 5, Game 6 and Game 7. He was a minus -3

‘playoff ghost’
Vs. the Panthers, in the playoffs:
Tavares had 0 goals and 0 points in Game 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7. The one game he did score in, Game 3, they lost, because he had 4 giveaways and was a minus 1.
Nylander had 0 goals, 0 assists, 0 points in Game 4, Game 5, Game 6 and Game 7. He was a minus -3.
Those playoff ghosts are leading the Leafs to a lottery pick this year.

Marchand says get a new job…..
Marchand’s smart enough to know not to give the team he’s playing against the next night, bulletin board material, especially when his team is also outside of the playoffs thus implying his own team is dead in the water if he shits on the Leafs playoff hopes.
Facts are the facts, almost 80% of teams miss the playoffs if they’re not in a spot by American Thanksgiving. The way this team is playing, they’re firmly in the 80% pile. The Panthers, given their history of going to the Cup Final 3 years a in row, winning twice, are more likely to be in the 20% that come back and get in, especially when Tkachuk and Barkov return later in the season.

No one said JT, willie and MAtthews werent great either in the playoffs…several things can be true.
Marner has a history of disappearing in games 5- 7….and last year he was useless in games 4- 7.
Leafs offered him a deal, he rejected it.Quick being a whiny little spoiled child.
Move on.
Or go watch vegas.
Marner is gone….he couldnt carry the leafs. -

looks like Carlo is going to be on the IR for an undisclosed amount of time. 🙁

If this team had dog shit players, you could understand why the PP sucks.
But…Tavares…Nylander…Matthews. Just those 3 weapons, by themselves, should give you a top 15 PP. Add Knies and OEL and you have everything you need to have, EASILY, a top 10 PP.
Instead…we get this absolute ass water garbage. They not only don’t score on the PP but they give up SH goals.
Send Marc Savard home in the middle of this game. Remove him from the bench.

Ship Rielly and Stolarz to Edmonton for Nurse.
Nurse?!?! Are you high? He’s fawking terrible. Nice shot, though.

Glad the game was decent but it was against the Blues.
Motivated by losing five in a row, being their coaches old team who is one of the worst in the league, having their primary goal scorer put it in their own net to start the game, newbies playing, now let’s see how they play against the BJs, they’re a step number 2 challenge 👍
CBJ, MTL, CBJ, WSH and PIT.
If this was the same team as last year looking to turn things around, they’d win those 5 games in a row.
Instead, they’ll go 2-2-1.
Called it.

Nice win.
But FFS can woll ever stay healthyThat’s so unfair, he has started 8 of the last 9? That’s a 72 game pace over a full season, therefore a Brodeur pace.
I know it hasn’t played out the way they’ve wanted but Berube cannot continue leaning on the goalies the leafs have like they’re f’n 90% starters. It’s simply not who they are.
-
Nice win.
But FFS can woll ever stay healthyIt’s frustrating, but you have to hope he felt something was off, and with the game well in hand after two, they decided to play it safe. Fingers crossed. He’s been insane this year.

Its not unfair at all. He’s a professional athlete (in his prime), he should be able to handle playing 8 games in 20 days, its a short stretch and he wouldn’t be playing this amount over the course of the season. So the 72 game pace is irrelevant as it would never happen.
Missed 35 games last year, missed several weeks in 2023 (ankle), another ankle injury in 2022 and missed games in 2021.
Plays well when he plays, but it seems like you cant ever rely on him.
Its too bad. -

Its too bad.Sorry I won’t agree with you on this one. Average rate for NHL starting goalies is 50-60 games a season. Therefore the pace they had him at was roughly an 18-22% increase in starts for a NHL goalie.
You can’t expect every NHL goalie to have Brodeur’s endurance capability without risk. If you do you’re crazy, I’m sorry but you are. Woll is good, but he’s not a HoF all star.

Oh no! We have to resort to our AHL goalie with an almost .920 sv% in the NHL. We’ll be fine.
Tanev skating in a red jersey. Nature is healing.
So Treliving is an idiot for trying to use Primeau over their AHL goalies?
Won’t bet it will be .920 for very long.
Tanev should probably sit until after the Olympics. One more bump to the head that soon after 2 quick concussions and he’s going to stay at Muzzin Manor on Robidas Island.

The shootout is the most infinitely ridiculous way to decide a hockey game. Why not decide basketball games with a dunk competition?
But, they also have to do something about 3v3 OT. Should be allowed to go back to your defensive half or something.
Agreed.
5v5 for 10 minutes.
No 3v3. No 4v4. No Shootout.
Bring back ties. Done.

Goalie vs goalie.
Face off at centre ice, then the goalies battle it out for the final goal.
-
Woll on the IR…..again
Must be another nhl season.Having two rookies in net long term is a big risk. They should probably call Reimer back and start looking for goalies with NHL experience unless they want Boston to draft as high as possible.
Stolarz injury was worse than expected and while Woll is “only” out 1 week, that could be worse too given the history.
-

This is so retarded.
We all know the real solution is 5 goalies vs. 5 goalies until somebody wins.
If that doesn’t work, shots from center ice into an open net.
And if that still doesn’t determine a winner, full line brawl. Last team without a concussion wins.

Forgot reimer.
Stolarz has over 150 games, hardly a rookie anymore.
The issue isnt having young goalies or a rookie goalie in Woll, its that woll isnt reliable. Every time the leafs need him, he gets injured. -

Stolarz and Woll are both injured. They aren’t the rookies I was referring to. The AHL call-ups are.
Stolarz and Woll are both unreliable because of injuries and both got injured because they played too often.

Plan to recover from the hangover from whatever drugs you’ve been huffing.
Vancouver is not accepting a pile of dog shit for Hughes, especially when they know he is destined to play for New Jersey.
Hughes would have ZERO interest in coming to Toronto even if Vancouver was stupid enough to accept that deal for him.

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?

Great to see the beast get his first shut out.
Keep up the great play, the leafs are really going to need him. If he can fill the void for the next week or three, that could turn this season around.Leafs are now 3pts back of 1st in the division and 2pts out of a playoff spot.

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?
Eggs Benny awfully fucking quiet tonight. What a pussy.
lol funny how you don’t hear a peep from that loser or the Unholy Eyor with the chicken little syndrome and room temperature IQ after a Leafs win eh?
Both were probably punching air big time after that impressive Leaf win in a tight game.
or
Rage pounding their pud to a Mitch Marner poster.
Either way fuck em’ both!
Go Leafs Go

Troy Stetcher has been a good pick up so far….from the hightlights Ive seen.
I’ve really liked his game since coming to the Leafs, quiet and effective. I saw a clip of him talking to the media right after the Leafs grabbed him and he seemed like a guy who had something to prove – always a good thing.
He and McCabe have been a great pairing too, seems to have allowed McCabe to not try to do too much and he is looking much more like his reliable, tough to play against self.
Good pick up by Tre!
I wonder if the play of Hildeby last few games has got Tre thinking to just weather the storm here until Woll is back and run with Woll and Hidabeast as the 1, 2 combo until (if?) Stollie can come back? Would be nice to not have to give something up to get a temporary solution between the pipes but thinking about how long it would take for Stollie to get back to game shape once he’s finally back on the ice – what 2 weeks? More? The fact the Olympic break isn’t until Feb doesn’t help, they can’t bring Woll back from injury and immediately press him into playing 80% of the games or more without risking him re-injuring himself IMO.
Who knows maybe this is the “I am NHL ready” party for Hildabeast – it’s happened before where an NHL rookie goalie took over from established starters (if we want to call Woll and Stollie that) and never looked back. Potvin in 92/93 is the best example as he stole the net from Grant Fuhr!
Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying that’s the case here at all but maybe Hildabeast is NHL ready at this point, even if it’s to be the back up to whichever of the 2 goalies the Leafs have labelled as 1A/1B is healthy because it doesn’t feel like both will be healthy at the same time ever.

Honestly, I dont think they can use Woll as a full time option ever, too fragile. He seems like a really good back up.
I know they’ll have to do what they have to do in the interim until Stolarz gets healthy which looks to be mid January, now. But long term, I dont believe Woll is a viable starter….hes great….but often injured, cant be relied on. -

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.
-
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

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…..

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.

Playing much better though, so thats good to see.In hindsight, yes. But, if he had played like this last year, he literally could have been the difference between burning out early and a Cup. If Stollie wasn’t run, we probably win that series. Than anything could have happened.
Also, now that he’s with the Leafs, he’s probably staying and very likely could be at a somewhat team friendly number.
-
Still not worth 1st and b prospect.
Playing much better though, so thats good to see.The pick is a question mark yes, we will see where the leafs finish up. The prospect I don’t care about at all, Grebenkin has a goal and 3 assists in 19 games for Philly this year, big f’n whoop.

How come I don’t see him in the line…
OHHH NVM HES ON THE THIRD LINE.
Shows what the organization really thinks of him.

*3rd line gets good*
*2nd line winger gets suspended*
Berube while shrugging: uhhhhh…. Willies been slumping’ so put him down there now I guess.

Yea McMann is suspended..
So let’s move our (allegedly) best winger to the third line?
How does that make sense.
Nylander is always shit when the Leafs are playing well. Because they tighten up, take fewer needless chances, which doesn’t suit Melander. Anyone can see this. Except for brain rotted Leafs fans who make their entire personality about glazing Willy.

Once the Leafs goaltending situation gets back to healthy, they should be able to deal Stolarz for a 1st+. The Leafs need to get some draft capital back and trading Stolarz makes sense, knowing that Woll and Hildeby are solid, younger goaltenders. They should also look to acquire Dumba off of the waiver wire and move a defenseman later, once the D Core is back to full strength.

Would you take that deal for 34?
Rossi, Ohgren, Buium and 1st
If we were a tire fire like the Canucks I would seriously consider it
-
Would you take that deal for 34?

I wouldn’t take that exact deal for Matthews because I’m not a big fan of those prospects however, the idea of four 1st round picks is very exciting. So, if the draft capital coming back to the Leafs is a young roster player, an elite prospect and two 1st round picks, maybe more because Matthews is the best goal scorer of this generation not named Ovechkin, that would be a great haul. Add to that what Nylander could fetch (again, at least one elite prospect, a 1st and a young roster player wouldn’t be out of the question) and that would be a fantastic boost to a rebuild of which I am already a big fan of.
Matthews + Nylander = two young roster players, two elite prospects and three 1st round picks.
If you play those cards right, you could end up with a rebuilt top-six (adding Knies and Cowan to that equation) and a rebuilt top-four (adding Danford to that equation) and they would all be under 25 and cost you very little cap space for the next 5 years.

I would trade Stolarz but he’s worth nothing right now. Goalies are generally worth very little unless they are proven elite and Stolarz is a proven back-up with injury problems and now has a pretty fat contract for a guy who can’t play a full season.
Dumba is garbage. Another failed dumbass Dubas project.

Yes of course, because it is the norm for teams to hit on all 7 and have them all turn out to be top 6 forwards and top 4 D.
-
Yes of course, because it is the norm for teams to hit on all 7 and have them all turn out to be top 6 forwards and top 4 D.
Which is why it’s imperative the Leafs continue to acquire more 1st round picks for Tanev, OEL, McCabe, Tavares, Carlo and all the other players over 25 as they tear it down and rebuild.
Also, can’t forget lottery picks in the 2028 and 2029 draft. At least one of those should be a franchise player.
That’s as many as 14 pieces to rebuild with in the next 4 years. Even if only half of them hit, the Leafs would be on solid rebuilt ground.

Leaving Hilde-bye in is just cruel.
At least 3 goals against are directly Nylander’s fault. Just total ass at defending. But this is what you fools wanted. Reap what you fucking sow you ejits!
Willy is highly skilled cancer on this team. He can be engaged for 3 – 4 games and stop playing for another 5 or 6.
He always been like this. -

He doesn’t care enough to be consistent. If at the end of the year he has 85-90 pts he’s happy and doesn’t care about the success of the team.

It’s better than doing the shit they did during the Kessel era which is what this team will become if they don’t blow it up.

It was much more successful than previous once, but still not successful enough to get closer to final destination.
But there were are pretty good last 6 seasons.Imagine the same rebuild without trading Kadri, keeping Hyman, not signing Tavares and drafting defense instead of trading 1st round picks for rentals. It would have ended much more differently.

I agree. This mess will be felt for generations. I’m so happy for them. The cope is incredible.

Well I guess Matthews for Quinn Hughes is out the door now.
LOLI would have been flat out shocked if Hughes agreed to go to another Canadian team lol

Bedard is out for the Leafs match up tomrrow night.
Can/will the Leafs rally for a W??So long as it doesn’t make the core play lazy again

It’s a tie with HB.

Wait, the current us government runs this site?[/quote]
The current US govt’s biggest and most proud supporter does.Think about it, we’re on a site run by someone who supports pedo’s and bombing fishermen in the Caribbean. Never mind all the other disgusting shit happening. But I was told by the second most successful troll that us libtards just need to accept the fascism and pedophilia or go somewhere else. 👍

Woll 💙
Great to see him back. Hopefully the team will let Stolarz return from his internal suspension soon as well.

Are we taking bets on how many games Woll last for before another injury?
Im feeling positive….18 games!
that is gracious.
10 games …. -

Anyone else kind of hoping that they just continue to be so bad that they decide to sell at the deadline and rebuild.
If there was any decent offer for Matthews at this point, I would take it. Rielly, Tanev, OEL, Carlo might all fetch a decent pick at the deadline. You could even take back short term salary. I would even consider trading Nylander.
I don’t believe their highest paid players are ever going to become guys who care enough to win.
LOL I started typing this when it was 1-0
-
Berube should just quit.
Literally, tell the entire hockey world, fuck these guys and this organization, I’m out.
I can’t recall a team this openly quitting on a coach.

Way, way ahead of you, been saying this for months.
Leafs don’t have a 1st round pick in 2026 or 2027 so rebuilding right now would be tough.
But they could systematically plan to blow it up for 2028 and have as many as 14 1st round picks (or top prospects) if they play their cards right by 2030.

Tortz, my good man …..

that was a little hard to watch as a Leafs fan ….
You’ve been burying your head in the sand all season. This is what this team has become. They have been bad all year, everyone just creates excuses for them.
Too many shots against, not enough shots for, terrible PP, bad PK and unsustainable shooting percentage which indicates their offense has been fortunate to be as effective as it has been.
These stats are all indicating they are a bad team, without a 1st round pick, in lottery territory.

I would love to see that happen. I guess the problem is that the one thing a coach can’t do is quit on the players. It probably would not help his career.
Theoretically, he should walk and call out all the guys who consistently underperform. I guess burning bridges is never a good idea though, unfortunately.

Just read Leafs are 5-1-2 in their last 8 games. I had to actually go check NHL.com. I did not believe it after all the whining on here
And still barely outside of being a lottery team.
This team is playing like trash and is winning games they have no business winning.
Playing like shit for 50 minutes isn’t how you make the playoffs or win Stanley Cups.
But of course the absolute biggest retards here will buy into the illusion because they’re just too stupid to see the process matters as much as the results which is why this team (the core) always loses when it matters the most.

Both can be & very likely are true!
And for the record I agree with you – despite Angry Eyor who seems to get off on calling people retards or the other clown who is just a troll at this point celebrating any and everything that goes wrong with the Leafs.
The difference (as someone else pointed out) is most of us don’t choose to come here and be assholes about it every single day.
-

The team is/has been a mess for a while.
But, nice comeback win last night. Good to see.For me, Matthews needs to out answering questions after every game – win or lose. You’re the captain, ya gotta do it.
From the highlights I saw, Woll looked good. Good to see.
Leafs really need to get a winning streak going. -

This Leaf team is so good they can show up for 8 seconds and win games. Exciting year.

A quick Hildeby stat.
He is saving the leafs two goals on every 100 shots relative to the league average.
Which puts him at the 8th spot, ahead of Hellebuyck.Not too shabby.
Which means absolutely nothing because he’s only played 11 games. If Matthews had maintained his career goal scoring pace after his 1st NHL game, he’d have 2624 NHL goals right now. But it didn’t go that way, did it?
The Leafs don’t have a single goalie that can play 55-60 games and maintain that level of stat over that larger period of time without falling off or getting hurt.

“grrrr I’m so angry and whiny grrrrr”
My gawd, you’re a dumbfuck.
Your matthews comparison, doesnt even make sense in context with what i posted.Its a simple 11 game stat. Nothing more, nothing less.
No conclusions or predictions on how his career is going to go, how many kids he will have, where he will retire or if he will make it to the hall of fame.
Just a positive stat about how the kid is doing.Now I guarantee, that had Hildeby’s 11 game stat been that he’s letting in 2 MORE goals per 100 shots relative to league average….you’d be on here going on about how he will only ever be an AHL’er and he sucks, cry, cry, cry, libtards cry, cry, cry Im so lonely etc.

Nope no illusions, just trying to enjoy the wins and try to make it through the season without going to crazy. For the last few years it has been hard to trust and get excited about the success of the regular season. So not going to put much stock on this year’s results either. At this stage we have been spoiled with a fun exciting team to watch for several years so most fans are only concerned about the playoff results. Team is built much differently this year so won’t go overboard like you until I see what happens year end.
Shocked you were on here so shortly after a Leaf win. You usually only come on and bitch while shoving your opinions down our throats as facts.
Again no illusion. Leafs did better than the 2-2-1 you told us WOULD happen.
-

2-1-2 in their last 5, have a seat dipshit, this team sucks. Ahead of only Ottawa, Columbus and Buffalo with 5 teams ahead of them for a lowly wild card spot and a 1st round ass kicking.

Reinhart McDavid Point
Crosby MacKinnon Bedard
Bennett Suzuki Marner
Hagel Celebrini WilsonSpares (choose 2) : Horvat, Scheifele, Stone, Jarvis, Johnson, Thomas, Cirelli, Hyman
Point hasn’t been Team Canada worthy in awhile. Suzuki isn’t as good as Horvat or Cirelli.

Why bother continuing to bitch about UG’s outlook? The Leafs could literally win the cup someday and while they’re raising it over their heads he’d start posting about how they’re unlikely to win it back to back lol 😂
I admit, I’ve done it, but no more, he’s just a stubborn ass who will never adjust his hatred opinion(s)
-
I also forgot the 🐀
100% have to take him over Hagel and he’d be playing with Crosby and Mac.

The much better question is why do the same idiots continue to believe this team is any good and can win a Cup as currently constructed? Obviously, every fan WANTS them to win but it doesn’t mean they’re actually anywhere near being able to compete for a Cup.
Why are these people holding on to a fool’s hope that they can miracle their asses back around to being a contender when the players themselves don’t give a flying fuck about them or winning a Cup?
This is precisely why the best course of action is for this team to continue to suck, trade it’s best assets, acquire as many 1st round picks as possible, tank it and rebuild this team. Maybe the next time they’ll have men worthy of cheering for and be able to actually put together a group of guys who want to do what it takes to win a Cup.

Mitch Marner shootout dud.
0 for 5 and counting this year.
It’s hard to believe a guy with so much talent and skill can suck this hard at the shootout – it’s almost like he’s not built for high pressure situations or something……..

Do you work for the team? No? Then your opinion means absolutely nothing. You don’t even get a free standing room only ticket to a game lol.
I’ll just do what a real fan does and hope The Leafs win the game they’re playing. Cheers.

cause the idots are fan’s of the team.
Dozzer has it correct.It’s like a marage. You don’t love it, divorce them and hookup with a different team. no getting some strange in between.

This place is so goofy sometimes eh.
Point’s – last 3 seasons
GP – 82
G – 51
A – 44
Pts – 95GP – 81
G – 46
A – 44
Pts – 90GP – 77
G – 42
A – 40
Pts – 82Point is terrible. Don’t even get me started on his defensive game!
Not brave enough to put his stats from this season eh Big23IQ.
What Point did 3 years ago doesn’t matter today. His playoff stats have dropped off and his stats this season are less than ideal. He’s not a bad player, he’s just not the absolute best player for Team Canada right now.
Unfortunately, he is a Cooper pet so he’ll probably be on the team even though he doesn’t deserve it, much like Hagel.
Point wasn’t that amazing at the 4 Nations either.
Canada needs rock solid bottom six and guys like Horvat and Cirelli are more important than bringing as many scoring forwards who won’t get the ice time they need.
-
So, I posted a reply to a comment that was made about Point not being a Team Canada for YEARS. As such, I posted his last 3 seasons (hoping this constitutes years).
I suppose this low IQ incel has a reading comprehension issue.

The angry incel donkey is what he is.
He ignores facts that don’t align with his horrific takes (like the fact Suzuki has more points, a better +/- and is younger (4 years younger than Horvat FFS) than the 2 guys he claims are better.
You are bang on though – the goal post moving level is elite from him as he continues to just spew garbage which is as pleasant as what you ‘decorate the bowl’ with after a night of draft beer, hot wings and a late night taco bell stop on the way home.
The only positive is at least he only posts from his own account unlike the mega-loser Marner fan boy who has taken to having full on conversations with himself on here using a number of his alts.
That is an A1 loser move if I’ve ever seen one, it’s almost as pathetic as Marner’s shootout attempts have been this year.
Almost.

The Sharks top player plays the right way.
He’s 19, probably 185lbs with his gear on, and protects his teammates when it calls for it. That’s how Crosby, McDavid, MacKinnon, Bedard etc all play. Too bad the horse the Leafs hitched their 58 year old cart of perpetual failure to is a total pansie. And their second best player is the biggest power-puff the NHL has ever seen.
That’s why the Leafs are a joke. Zero emotion from their top players.

Honestly guys, Hilde-bye is sorta mid.

Yeeesh.
Is Nylander playing?
He’s the new Gustavsson. Not too bad.
I’m getting really tired of Captain Pouty not even caring, let alone leading.
-
My biggest concern is how TF is the PP THIS bad?!?! Holy fuck, fire Savard already. How much more of this do you need to see before making a change?!?! Let Bruce run the PP.
Marner had to go.
He just had to go. Even if the team is terrible without him, and Nylander and Matthews are heartless little Nancies out there, he had to go. The PK can afford to suffer too. Leafs don’t need an elite two-way 100pt winger. Passing is overrated.

Just saw some post game comments from Berube, sounds like he’s done. Bring in Torts, lol.

Come over to SJ. The waters warm!
(It’s actually not. SF bay is notoriously cold)
Oh I know, went down in 2007 to see rage reunite and hung out for a couple weeks prior.
And The Leafs shot some coal tonight!! 😐😔 lol
Never been, but I’ve heard that’s why Alcatraz was built there.
Went to Costa Rica, pacific side, the water was warm! Went a couple hours north to Nicaragua and the water was frigid. I don’t know much about ocean currents, but I know I prefer swimming in lakes.
Rage! 👍

Oh I’ve done both the Atlantic and Pacific in a few spots. I remember touring in my band out east into the Maritimes routinely and hanging in Florida when I was younger and doing the west coast in the band too. Got family and old band mates everywhere nowadays. Just make a trip anywhere and have a place to hang. This upcoming year I’m aiming at Vancouver, two former sax players I’ve played/recorded/Apple Music with living there right now, one in a boat lol, I gotta go say hi, I’ll get a hotel room tho, I’m 48 now not in my 30s lol

Sounds like you’ve lived had a good life, man. All the bullshit aside, I’d probably trade places with you for a few years in your 20’s haha.
Since I’ve been to Ireland, I just can’t shake the vibes of that place. I’d move there in a second, just for the music and pub culture.
My name it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep chimney sweep!

So ‘ a while’ doesn’t include the previous 3 seasons?
I feel you are the one who is less advanced in mental, physical, or social development than is usual for one’s age.
As bad as I am – English cannot possibly be your first language eh. I refuse to believe it.
…you get so angry – I feel bad that I set you off so dramatically. I actually feel bad for the females you will hunt and rage type at tonight. My bad. PLEASE PLEASE do not give into the urge to rent a van. Please man it’s just a game! This is not your mom’s fault, so don’t go upstairs and abuse her. She brought you rice, crispy treats, Mountain Dew, and nuggies. She lets you live there in her house at 30 bud. She’s a saint.

You would get a shit kicking if you ever left tourist areas in Ireland where they HAVE to be ice to little twats like you… Pub Culture haha you fucking goof
Fuck buds you would trade your 20s with anyone that can hear no?
You’re drunk, go to sleep.

Just saw some post game comments from Berube, sounds like he’s done. Bring in Torts, lol.
Hope he’s the first NHL coach to quit on his players before he can get fired.
-
Marner brought it every game. Competes hard.
With him gone there’s no one inspiring Matthews anymore. Nylander will never care about anything other than himself.
Berube is a coach for a mature veteran team. The Leafs are the most immature I’ve ever seen. Chief did what he could to get these guys to be more competitive, but when Nylander and Matthews are the guys setting the tone, wtf did they think was going to happen. Mitch got labeled a “whiner” for throwing his gloves on the bench, or yelling at the bench in his final game, but it was all passion. He was the lynchpin. The Leafs are so fucking cooked.
I was right about all of this. And you all know it. Leafs fans are more pathetic than MAGA. You’re all in a cult.

I can’t wait til Mamdani is president and opens up a whole bunch of gulags for you fascists! It’s going to be sweet! 😁
-
That would actually be awesome.
Would be a fantastic statement but terrible for the value of our players for the rebuild so hope it doesn’t go that way.
Need this team to realize it’s time to rebuild, without being a lottery team but still have enough value in the older players to sell off for assets.
It’s a tough situation and Treliving isn’t up to it, that’s a guarantee.
-

Kid, its clear you simply do not know what that means.
The fact that your constant unwarranted go to words in any post or reply is “retard”, “communist” or “libtard” speaks volumes to your lack of maturity, depth and says so much about your own limitations.And yes I fully understand that anyone who has 2-4 alternate accounts on a hockey chat room is also immature.
-
Matthews should take his purple purse and go pout in the press box.
I’m beginning to really hate him. What the hell am I supposed to do with my 34 Jersey? I can’t wear that anymore.
I agree. Fortunately I never wasted money on a matthews jersey.
It was a mistake giving him the captaincy imo.
For years this team has lacked compete, fight and heart but always seemed to have a boatload of indifference. Marner wasnt THE problem, he was part of a greater problem.
This is the type of year I’ve wanted for the past couple of years with one big exception…..I wanted the leafs to have their 1st round pick.
The leafs have needed a retool for a while, get some high picks sell off some players and then comeback the following year.Unfortunately, they wasted their 1st rounders for years. Last years deadline trades were huge overpayments.
I dont believe Tre is the gm qualified to turn this thing around. The leafs either need to make the playoffs or finish in the bottom 5…..at this point they will probably leaf it and finish 6th worse.
Philly going to have a great pick at this years draft.Come on Jays do something to take our minds off the leafs for the next several weeks.

Dubas/Keefe had flaws, but the teams were better

I wasnt a fan of the Treliving hiring from the start, mainly because he didnt do much in calgary and the same is playing out with the Leafs. but has he ever gradually ground this team to awful.
Burube is a shit coach also. but a bad combo. just a downward trend all over -

I guess we’ll find out soon enough, but Tre had the balls to try to get Mitch to waive to bring in Rants, so maybe he’ll make the hard-to-make moves now.
The next 6-8 months will define his career. Not stellar in Calgary, can he turn it around in Toronto?
-

It won’t look pretty. Matthews, Nylander, and Rielly will choose where they want to go if they want to go anywhere and that will limit the return coupled with their salary amount which will also limit their return. The leafs will have to take salary back which means they won’t get as many picks/prospects as they would like.
Tbh I’m guessing if anything happens it will be a new coach first, not a blow up.

And rightfully so. This is right out of the Oilers playbook. Team plays like shit, coach loses the room, fire coach, cup final. Granted, I don’t see the team as currently constructed doing much in the playoffs this year, (assuming they make it), but there is still a fuck ton of talent on this team, they just need someone to unlock it. I’d fucking love to see Torts come in and smack these fuckers with their own purses. I’m just about done with Matthews.

Rip the C from his jersey and I’m willing to bet he’ll accept getting moved. He flat out does not drive the team, good player with talent but he’s a shitty leader.
As for the team I do kinda feel bad for Berube. He’s yet to have the goaltending plan which was having both Stolarz and Woll bouncing back and forth in the stating roll, they’ve yet to even be in a game together. And then their D has been crumbled by injury as well, look at right now for instance, two of their top 4 D men, like them or not, are hurt.
It has unfortunately seems to have lead to the team not caring enough now, so Tre needs to find a way to amp up them giving a shit and I’m thinking it’s going to take a fresh face behind the bench. I could be wrong, I am a lot lol, but I won’t be shocked if I’m not about this.

Trading two 1st round picks last deadline killed this team hope for a quick turnaround.
Both trades were huge overpayments.Tre has been a huge failure here so far.

Giving matthews the C was such a bad moved.
Also, Tre signed a couple of older players long term….one of which has history of injuries.
Tre also extended two goalies who have a history of injuries.
So some of the injuries the leafs have had arent that much of surprise imo.I think Berube has 3 years left, not a good look on Tre if he fires him before year two of his contract finishes.
BUT!
Pete DeBoer is available….maybe thats enticing to Tre?

Extending Stolarz was a mistake before he proved he was capable of ensuring a starter’s role without well… hurting himself. I like him but I didn’t like that.
The D is questionable but not the end of the world, the injuries that hit them back there arent really age related, just sad BS bad luck.
As for the coaches contract who cares? The leafs have more than enough $ to pay off Berube’s contract, so if the team isn’t listening to him it’s simply one of two choices. 1: keep him and start tearing the team down or 2: fire him and give it one last try under someone else.

The reason why the Leafs are so bad this year, is because the let the fans dictate how to run the team.
In order to win in today’s NHL you needs to be selfless. Meaning you need to play at all ends of the ice. You can’t have guys learning basic defensive positioning and have them being your leaders. Your leader needs to be fearless, they need to set the tone.
At the end of the day I don’t blame the fans, people are just shallow and stupid these days. Instagram influences opinions of players, not their play on the ice. So the fans are too stupid to know what’s good for the team. But for management to give into pressure and let their best player walk for nothing, while rewarding selfish players is completely unacceptable. I was excited when they hired Berube because I thought there was a chance he’d either improve Nylander’s overall game, or force him off the team. Turns out Tre either didn’t have the power to move him, or the stones to move him.
Guys, it’s over. Not only was I right about everything, it happened quicker than even I could have expected.

They’ve been a poorly constructed team for many, many, years now, and then they lost one of their best players, that’s why they’re bad. There was high-end offence, which is fun and fine in the regular season, but when you start to play meaningful games and other teams, good teams, start to shift their focus to a more complete 200 foot game, that’s something the Leafs couldn’t do. They lacked depth, and they lacked quality goaltending.

Looks like Domi has been cut out of the lineup again tonight… here’s the lineup tonight according to SN:
Knies – Matthews – Nylander
Robertson – Tavares – Cowan
Joshua – Roy – McMann
Maccelli – Laughton – JärnkrokRielly – Myers
McCabe – Stecher
Benoit – Ekman-LarssonWoll starts
HildebyThe Leafs are going to win tonight!

The Leafs are going to win tonight!
I’ll never guarantee it, it’s why I’m not a gambler, but I’ll always cheer for it!!
Go Leafs Go!!!
Seriously tho, Domi’s game is essentially tobogganing right now. Makes it to the bottom of the hill, gets benched, climbs back up while he’s sitting out, gets put on line 1, slides down the lineup, and gets sat again being at the bottom of the hill. Will he be on line 1 again next game? lol 😂

I haven’t been going to either of the hockey sites, lately. I’ve also started not watching the Leafs. It’s my prerogative to just tune them out. This team didn’t have to go down this route. Biggest mistake is taking the “C” from Tavares and putting it on Matthews. He didn’t need the extra headache. Rielly hasn’t been great for 3 years now. How come they don’t address that elephant in the room? Burube? He wasn’t the coach that they really needed. Spencer Carbery was, but they let him go to Washington. Too many draft picks squandered, poor choices of assistant coaches and a Corporation that made more money than they were entitled to, with exorbitant ticket prices and you see where this stew began. Letting Sportsnet and their washed up broadcasts getting another 12 years of National coverage also hurt the product. TSN had a more hip broadcast and brought in the younger people. As a 68 year old fan, I’m starting to feel that I’ll never live long enough to see them win another Cup. What can they do to turn it around? A silent auction of Austin Matthews, then the domino’s of Rielly and Nylander being moved is the answer. Yes, it will hurt in the short term, but they’ll come back with younger, more hungrier players. Enough treading water, clean house and do a reset on the fly. For now, they’re in purgatory until they reset this sinking ship.

Domi needs some push from Berube, but he will be fine. We are in full circle now. I remember when media was screaming that
Leafs are not playing play off style of hockey and they need defense first minded coach to have success in post season.
Now I hear they advocating that Leafs players need to go back to the old gun and run system, which is more suited for their roster. -

As for the team I get it, don’t listen to the dramatic media, they simply say whatever gets them attention. My hope is nothing more than them waking up after getting shut out, and if they don’t I’ll just shrug and see what comes next.

Can’t blame him. Southern States is where it’s at.
Tax rate yup. His contract is based on 37% paid towards the home games while Toronto’s is aimed at 53.53%.
Toronto’s captain gets pad in Arizona on July 1 and makes league minimum 👍
And O’Reilly also gets to walk around in public personally without being bothered.

It seems the Leafs dead last in the standing for the reason.
And what happened to Matthews? He is not even a shadow of what he was even in his worst times.There’s no excuse imo, Magic battled through it.

Leafs have played 34 games without Marner.
And it’s a consensus that they need to “blow it up” as you says.
Absolutely remarkable.
Never has a single player meant to much to a team in all pro sports. Mitch absolutely do the right thing and left, because he knew he was carrying the team himself.
-
-
Nah
Marner is a little bitch
Ignorance is bliss.
-
-
He has 6 goals 😂
That’s a retarded analysis because his job is to be a playmaker which would make him #1 on the Leafs in assists and 2nd in points. He also proved last year he could lead the Leafs in scoring when Matthews was hurt and useless. Without Marner, Matthews has become useless.
Matthews has how many goals? The PP is how effective? Knights are 2nd in their division, Leafs are dead last.
Use your brain.

It’s a team sport, not just about scoring by goals.

lol Marner hate and Marner love
He’s a crybaby
Did he make the leafs better? Fuck yes of course he did. But no, I don’t want them overcoming their cup slump based around him. Rebuild and get the men needed and don’t base it around a whiny little boy, I’ll wait longer.
Truly a retarded take. You hate Marner so much you would rather the team be worse and not win than to succeed with him on the team. You literally hate Marner more than you love the Leafs.
Reality is, the problem on this team was with the guys they kept, not the ones they let go like Kadri, Hyman, Marner, among many others.
Only a matter of time now before the idiot fans run Matthews out of town next.

I’ll happily be retarded if that’s your definition. Please don’t liken it to guys like Kadri and Hyman tho, I do not see those men as bitchy little boys.
Please remember I’m a long time musician, I’ve known fantastic players who I hated because they were bitchy little cunts. Gotta be a man. If you’re not I simply cannot like you, acknowledge your talent sure, want you around? No.

The players obviously angry with something and decided to throw the season away.
I wonder what is exact reason they doing it, GM, Berube, departure of Marner? Something else? -

Every time I hear the name Rantanen it reminds me that the biggest mistake Toronto has made in the last 2 years is not trade Mitch the Bitch before his NMC came in. He didn’t want to stay in Toronto because he could not handle the pressure, and then he blocked a trade because well he is a spoiled selfish little C who is afraid of his own shadow. Can’t blame him for being afraid though. He would break if he were ever hit hard.

Man, I would have loved to see this team -Marner and +Rantanen. His compete level would have lit a fire under this team.
That being said, on the Leafs he would have already been suspended 82 games.

Welp, it was fun while it lasted.
Best game they’ve played in a LOOOOONG time, and it still wasn’t enough. Hopefully, the futility on the PP again will finally cost Savard his job.
Agree. Someone needs to come in and put a fresh set of eyes on the PP.

This is just the beginning of the wake for this season. Soon the corpse will start to rot and the vultures will circle. There needs to be a total tear down here. Use what grade A assets that you have to start a reset. Bring in some advisors like Gary Roberts, etc. Rebuild with total blood and guts players and get rid of the metrosexuals on the team. I watched about 20 minutes of tonight’s game and about the same last night. Football is all that’s left right now. It’s going to be a long winter of discontent.

I already said it is quite possible that they miss the playoffs, I guess they were not playing better hockey 3 games ago? I guess Leafs would not be better with Rantanen? Keep changing the narrative buddy.

It’s a lot more than “possible” they miss they playoffs, it’s becoming a damn near certainty. But some of you slower ones catch up to reality a lot later.
The Leafs would also be better off with MacKinnon, Barkov and McDavid. Doesn’t mean a fucking thing. You think Rantanen would have stayed in Toronto beyond being a rental? He would have ditched this dog shit franchise and city so fucking fast, it would have made your blue and white glasses spin. This idea that Rantanen would have re-signed in Toronto is hilarious. But it’s the perfect retard narrative the media spins to make Marner look like the bad guy in this situation. Rantanen joined the Stars because he’s not a complete idiot. Life in Dallas is much, much better and so is the team. He’d be freezing his balls off playing on a lottery team if he had come to Toronto. And guess what, he’d be costing the Leafs 15+ AAV because that’s what the Leafs would have had to pay to make up for shitty Canadian taxes compared to the 12 AAV he makes in Dallas. Rantanen would have been a rental in Toronto. Nothing more. The Leafs only hope was keeping the home town kid and the franchise, along with it’s media and some of it’s idiot fans ran him out of town. Now, suffer the consequences. Enjoy being dead last in the division and handing the Bruins a 6th-10th pick for your trouble.

If the Leafs end up firing Berube and hiring DeBoer, they’d be bringing in the ultimate Leafs style playoff choke coach.
The exact coach that went to the Final twice (NJD and SJS), and lost. Then went to the 3rd round, SIX times, and lost all six times, once with SJS, 2 times with VGK and 3 times with DAL.
I’ve said for years that this team is the San Jose Sharks that once upon a time would score a lot of goals, be the regular season champs and then choke in the playoffs, led by the mentors of this core, Marleau and Thornton. And now they’re going to complete the tri-fecta and bring in the coach.
Better than Berube, make the playoffs but lose when it matters and prevents the rebuild for years.
So Leafy.

If the Leafs blow up the entire team, trade Matthews, Nylander, sure. But he’s small and a winger. He doesn’t fit with what the Leafs actually need. He’s another Taylor Hall. Which is fine, but not what the Leafs actually need. He’s not a RHD and he’s not a center and he’s pretty small. Those aren’t bold selling points.
Remember, Yakupov was #1 once upon a time. These small wingers bust all the time as #1 picks.

Yeah, I’m more of the mindset that you take the best player available regardless of your needs, but a 6’4″ 210lbs+ RHD is awfully appealing.
-
Yeah, I’m more of the mindset that you take the best player available regardless of your needs, but a 6’4″ 210lbs+ RHD is awfully appealing.
Best “player” means more than who scores the most though. Look at Taylor Hall. He was supposed to be the “best” offensive player from his draft but he has zero Cups and has been traded more than half a dozen times while Seguin and further down the draft, Tarasenko are the guys with Stanley Cups. McKenna might get the hype as the scoring machine but that’s not what the Leafs need. If you draft McKenna, then trade him immediately for players just as young who fit your needs, then sure. But if you draft McKenna and throw him into the NHL on this team, the Leafs still play the same bullshit brand of 5-4 hockey and lose in the playoffs every year.
You either tank, blow up the team, rebuild the foundation and make McKenna the new Nylander or you add pieces to the puzzle you don’t already have. This team, with the current core, would be way better off with a huge power forward LW or a huge top pair RHD than they are with another small, soft, weak, offense first winger.

Should have never hired this retard.

So Savard has been fired, don’t expect the cup lol
If the PP was top 5-10 as it should be, the Leafs would probably be tied for the division lead.
The Leafs are 2nd worst in the NHL at drawing penalties. That’s probably because they don’t work hard enough to create O-Zone time which leads to teams taking penalties. But even with the 90 PP opportunities the Leafs have had, if they had scored 23 PP goals instead of the 12 PP goals they currently have, that would make the Leafs +2 instead of -9 on goal differential. If applied to the eight, one goal games that ended in L/OT/SOL, that could easily put them at 45 points instead of 35 points.
The Leafs would still be a fundamentally flawed team but an effective PP would make up for a lot of it. Considering the $ they have in what are supposed to be elite offensive players, there should be no chance in hell they are 32nd on the PP. That PP should be, at worst, clicking at 25% which would put them 8th overall on the PP.

I drink Guinness now. Mostly. But I did just have a Beaver Duck IPA (Sleeping Giant Brewery) and I guess it’s alright.
So what’s the next shoe to drop? Oh they just fired their assistant coach because the PP sucks ass? Wow. Maybe they should’ve tried harder to keep their best player who ran the PP and maybe Savvy would still have a job.
You know I’m going to be for every isotope for the nuclear fallout of MM16 leaving. So kick back, get comfortable, and enjoy the show.

Doesnt really have to do with marner. I know you’re oblivious to that fact, cause you’re limited.
Marner may have equaled two more wins, but we all know he would be useless when it counts in the playoffs.I said for years this core isnt up to the tasks and its showing now.
Go seek attention in the sharks thread if you’re such a big fan now.

Toronto lost their offensive engine when Marner left, their poorly constructed roster is showing through loud and clearly now.

Well said.
I love how Leafs fans are like, “well nine years of making the playoffs was a good run.” While their superstar player is in the middle of his prime hahahaha. They’re so deluded.
I love this for them, though. The obvious reason the Leafs are garbage is because Marner was everything to this team. He ran cover for Nylander being the softest, and worst defensive player in the NHL. He took care of the PK, and PP. He made Matthews the goal scoring threat he was.
Watching it all far apart is such a wonderful feeling. Watching the fans cope is orgasmic. They deserve all of this for running their best player out of town. Truly a story of biblical proportions.
It’s not about me being 100% right, it’s about them being wrong and getting to watching them try to defend it.
Soooo gooood!

I’m sorry you’re illiterate. Let’s try again.
If they traded everyone over 25, draft McKenna. If they’re going to keep this core and want to add a piece they need to compliment Matthews and Nylander, pass on the one-way, small offensive winger and take a power forward or RHD instead.
Get it? Got it? Doubt it.

I havent paid a lot of attention to the Leafs this season overall. cuz they suck and are boring.
but I see they are last in the NHL in penalties drawn. not that the PP would help. but its hilarious the leafs have been bottom of the league for a decade at drawing penaltiesBecause they absolutely suck balls at driving the play. Teams that draw penalties are usually controlling the o-zone which forces opposing teams to get tired and eventually take a penalty.
If the Leafs PP was 8th or better in efficiency, they’d be in 1st place right now. Having a retard like Savard run the PP and losing Marner has been the difference between 1st and dead last.
-

Matthews scored a GWG vs Florida in Game 6.
Knies and Marner also had GWG vs the Panthers last year. Kucherov had 0 goals and McDavid had 1 vs the Panthers by comparison.
The problem wasn’t the Leafs top line. They did their job keeping Barkov in check while scoring 3 GWG. The problem was Tavares and Nylander were absolutely caved in defensively and disappeared offensively.

Keep dreaming UG, Tre flat out said they’re not breaking down the team today.
If there is changes they’ve begun to happen, it will be coaching first but no, if the team gets blown up it won’t be til the off season at the earliest.

That he has no experience at the NHL level which was the problem with Savard who had minimal experience and that experience was a failure.
I was right to complain when they hired Savard and Sullivan appears to be just as unqualified.

Steve Sullivan had 75 career PPG goals in over 1000 NHL games.
William Nylander has 77 career PPG goals in 718 games. Matthews has 107 career PPG. Tavares has 157.
Just let Nylander be the PP coach while he’s on the LTIR.
Steve Sullivan can be Nick Robertson’s personal coach so he can teach him how to survive 1000+ NHL games being a midget.

I am going to guess that hiring a guy who has zero NHL coaching experience is probably going to end as poorly as it did last time when they hired a guy with very little NHL experience and even less NHL success.
Bruce Boudreau is out there and he ran a deadly PP with the Capitals for years. The Leafs sit on their hands again with coaches like they failed when they didn’t sign Quenneville. As usual, Anaheim is fighting for 1st and the Leafs are sucking pond water at the bottom of the division.
Peter DeBoer, as big of a playoff choker as he is, is patting Berube on the back saying: “Hang in there buddy, I’m not touching that disaster franchise with a 10 foot pole”.

They played OK tonight. It’s obvious that they need more offense. Willy might have helped. Not sold om Maccelli. He’s allot like Domi, a turnover machine. Leafs need to address their need for a top 6 winger with a little more jam. The defense looks good with Tanev back. Time to get something done while they still have the ability to make a move into the playoffs. Too bad that Stolarz isn’t available. He would make excellent trade bait.
-
And shift the goal posts. Nothing to do with the post I commented on which was really really dumb, even for you.
Absolutely no goal posts were moved, you’re just too stupid to realize it.
The original point was, and still is, Steve Sullivan is not the best person for the job. Hell, he’s not even doing the job as the Leafs said the PP would be run by “committee” which means 66% of the time, Steve Sullivan’s input won’t even matter. He was a mediocre PP threat as a player (which tells me the current core players won’t respect him enough to listen to him considering they’re all better PP performers than he ever was) and has done next to nothing as a coach to make me believe he’s a capable NHL coach. Those are two solid data points that show he won’t be any more useful than Savard. Sullivan was simply the next man up because they were either too stupid or too shit for anybody good to make anybody want to coach this sad sack shit of a team.
Speaking of Savard, I correctly predicted he would fail. Why? Because his experience in the NHL was limited and his teams sucked on the PP. And here we are, fired Savard for having the worst PP in the NHL. But you’ll all pretend that never happened.
The Leafs are doing what they always do; hire the most mediocre people to do the most important jobs. It’s no wonder they get mediocre results.
But the Leafs keep serving you dog shit, you lick it up and pretend it’s chocolate ice cream.

Orange Pineapple is the best ice cream, hands down.
Then maybe don’t use ridiculous comparisons like NHL PPG scored as support to your unfounded arguments. Time will tell with the PP.

So, again, if you’re Nylander, Tavares and Matthews and Steve Sullivan shows up and starts telling you how to run a PP, you honestly believe those guys are going to give one solitary flying fuck what he has to say when they all literally have more career PPG than he does?
It’s one thing if an established coach, with proven success, a track record of winning comes in having being been a bad or marginal player and tells players what to do because he at least as a resume of success. But Steve Sullivan has nothing. He has barely two years of AHL assistant coaching and nothing else to his name that the current core of entitled players would respect or listen to.
The last few games, the Leafs have had some PPG goals but it’s not because Steve Sullivan is doing anything, it’s simply because the retard Savard is gone and his system was so brain dead that it completely tied their most skilled players by the balls and gave them nothing to work with.
When they hired Savard “time will tell” was the mantra. Time proved me right.

As soon as top tier American athletes decide to play hockey, the rest of the world is done for. Right now, 3rd and 4th tier athletes play hockey and the top tier athletes go into football, basketball, Olympics and other sports.
Literally only a matter of time before Canada loses it’s dominant grip on hockey.

Does a Mangiapane for Maccilli base of a trade make sense for the Leafs?
Perhaps Mangiapane playes a little more in the style of Berube systems.I don’t know about this potential of a trade
They are basically the same player. Small, one-way players. Won’t make a difference except to change the scenery for both players.

Cirelli and Stone wtf
Bennett off
Fire ArmstrongYes indeed, they both deserve it because they role the play will be important. Cirelli is a shutdown center, his offense is irrelevant but he still has more points than Point (more on that later). Stone doesn’t have to score either, he just needs to steal pucks and be a solid two-way role player. He can play anywhere in the line-up, on the PP, on the PK; literally a Swiss army knife.
Unfortunately, because Cooper is the coach, his pets Hagel and Point are on the team even though they haven’t been playing the best. Bedard has been better than both of them and a much harder player to stop or contain. His injury, apparently, had nothing to do with his omission so they’re just stupid. Hagel hasn’t been so bad this year but Point isn’t even in the top 50 in scoring with a pathetic 6 goals and 21 points and -5 in 31 games. Even Scheifele, Johnston, Tavares, Stamkos, Kadri, ROR, RNH, Bennett, Jarvis, Thomas and Hyman have more points. That’s pretty bad. Point should have been cut on merit and now he’ll have to prove that he’s the 50 goal, playoff beast he was 4 years ago and not the garbage he’s been playing like this year.
Not a huge fan of Suzuki either. His points are fine but he’s going to be the 3C so his FO% is a bit low and he’s not the biggest or strongest guy up the middle. He doesn’t really play on the PK either. I would have definitely left him off the team, made Horvat the 3C and bring in Bennett. That’s the biggest mistake by far. Canada was afraid to bring too many guys who take penalties but Bennett is a winner, he was worth that risk.
The D is mostly as expected, they didn’t roll the dice with Schaefer, which is disappointing because he’s way better suited for this tournament than Sanheim. They also snubbed Chychrun which is disappointing because he has 15 goals in 39 games, #1 in goals among defenders and he’s got no spot. Josh Morrissey should have been left at home because he’s not really the best at any role on this team.
The goalies, they got right. Canada has an obvious weakness in net but Thompson has been playing like a Vezina candidate so hopefully he’s the starter and that continues. Binnington made the team on history but he’s proven that when everything is on the line, he can play way better than expected. Kuemper makes sense as the 3rd string goalie or as a starter too. I think I’m okay with him in any role with how he’s been playing. All three guys have a Stanley Cup in various roles so while Canada won’t have the absolute best goaltending in the tournament, they will have competent goaltending. With the team in front of them, they won’t have to steal many games, they just have to not lose you the game.
-
Haters can choke on his Wollnuts 💙
Until his Wollnuts get cracked and he’s out for 6-8 weeks.
I’ve always liked Woll as a goalie but until he can stay on the ice for an entire season, he’ll always be a liability as your “starter”.
Between him and Stolarz, it just feels like they’re both back-ups filling in until the previous guy gets back from injury.
Ask yourself, how many games have BOTH Stolarz and Woll been on the ice as starter and back-up to each other? I’d wager very few out of the total possible games. Probably less than 40%.

looks like we will not see Tanev on the ice for theLeafs for a while with recent groin injury.

This is how Team Canada should have been.
Point has been playing terrible (not even top 50 in points, only 6 goals) and should be cut. Suzuki isn’t good enough offensively to be a top-six center (very difficult to supplant McDavid, Crosby, MacKinnon etc.) and defensively, isn’t exactly a big, strong, shutdown PKer. Bringing those two are the biggest mistakes up front. Bennett should be there, he’s a big game performer and Bedard is electric if he has two stable guys beside him who can cover for his defensive shortfall which Horvat and Stone could do easily. Bedard on a 3rd line is like a secret weapon you can punish teams with less depth.
Celebrini | McDavid | Marner
Marchand | Crosby | MacKinnon
Bedard | Horvat | Stone
Bennett | Cirelli | WilsonEX: Hagel | Reinhart
Chychrun and Bouchard should be on the team in some capacity. Chychrun has 15 goals half way through the season. That is a PP weapon that absolutely helps you win tight games. Bouchard is a problem defensively but he’s such a weapon on the PP that in a tight game, you could use that to be a difference maker. If he played beside a stable partner like Theodore, he’d be a weapon. Both guys, plus Makar and possibly Schaefer, give you 4 guys who can bust a game open on special teams. Parayko is solid defensively but he has 0 goals this season. You have to replace his booming shot on the PP with guys that are getting results.
*Toews | Makar
Chychrun | Parayko
Theodore | DoughtyEX: Schaefer | Bouchard
*Add Sanheim to the 3rd pair if Toews can’t make it, Theodore goes to the top pair. Schaefer and Bouchard slot in vs weaker teams to attack them.
Thompson is playing like a Vezina goalie, he wins the net on the opening game, but any one of these three could become a starter. All three have won a Cup in some capacity and Binnington, as bad as he has been on a bad team, can step up big when it matters.

Sweet Goal OEL!!!
Magic is not in Leafland vocabulary unfortunately.

Are you talking about the Rangers rumour?
Matthews, Rielly, Stolarz
Fox, Zib, Schneider and Quick
I’m totally for it due to getting rid of an overpriced award winner dying off before he runs home to the states, a second pairing D man who is paid adequately, and a goalie who got signed for a completely stupid contract 👍😘👍

Brad should be working hard on a 34 trade for sure.
Fatty will go to the Olympics, come back and play a game or two, then shut it down for the surgery. We get shafted as usual.

Leafs get to test their PP powers
2 seconds left and Matthews scores a PP goal !!!!
BOO Yeah
Down by 1 now …

Nice late goal.
I need to keep chirping this guy!
If only he had two Stanley Cup rings to plugs his ears …….

Having The Real Kypper and Bourne on the panel is getting better and better.
Just like their show, which is about to overtake Overdrive for #1.
OD really shot themselves in the foot going to two hours, horrid segments with Goof Wilson and ALS Brother, paying more attention to their stupid personal pool than the sports stories they used to cover with humor.
Sad to see them sinking it.

Can we get more of the goal-scoring version of Matthews please.
But less of the being down 4-1 and then barely winning 6-5 to the worst team in the league with their back-up in net.

4-1
Most dangerous lead in Leafland
6-5 Leafs final
Book it 📕BROOOOOOOOOO, WHAT?!?!?!
I did call the comeback with family when it was 4-1, but I didn’t predict the final score. We’ll played, Mr good Sir.

Eggs Benny has been awfully retarded, I mean, quiet lately. You think he got his twig arm stuck in the ice reaching for a white claw?
4-0-1 in the last 5.
AA only brings him out when the Leafs loose to troll the fan base.

I have been busy with World Juniors. Have the Maple Leafs lost in regulation since hiring Sullivan?
-
So, are y’all gonna make the playoffs?
Buffalo won 10 in a row and is barely in the playoffs. The Leafs would have to become a completely new and different team to make it.
And even if they made it, a 1st round anal destruction is most likely.
-

Again, I was the first to say the Leafs PP was the difference between being in last place and 1st place. The firing of Savard will yield improvement by subtraction, that’s how useless and retarded Savard was. Again, another thing I predicted years ago.
As for Sullivan, it’s already been stated that the Leafs PP is now by “committee” so for him to get all the credit would be your usual retarded interpretation. He’s done next to nothing other than scrap Savard’s idiotic scheme. Again, addition by subtraction.
Leafs still in a far off spot and a long, long way to go before they’re anywhere near playing like they’re supposed to play to be a serious contender.

As much as you use the word retard it’s amazing how much of it you continue to have left in you. The other day you were crapping all over the Sullivan hiring and how he didn’t score enough PP goals during his NHL career to get any of the Leafs’ star players to listen to him. Lots of season left, but so far so good

The Rielly dreaming is cute.
I honestly believe he wouldn’t go anywhere but Vancouver, and I doubt Vancouver would want him, and if they did what would they hand over?
Just accept and let yourself get numb to this particular pain.
Just a little pin prick
There’ll be no more ah!
But you may feel a little sick!! -

Let’s get to .500 in OT and actually get a road win.
As previously stipulated, the Leafs suck on the road.

The Canucks absolutely suck but he might go to Seattle, which is a better team and not that far away from his home province. He’s certainly woke enough to live in that garbage city and actually enjoy it.

Holy fuck, Rielly is fucking terrible.
Why yes, Whipper. Yes he is.
-
The Canucks absolutely suck but he might go to Seattle, which is a better team and not that far away from his home province. He’s certainly woke enough to live in that garbage city and actually enjoy it.
Doubt it. He will want to live with his family if no longer playing for Toronto and that means Vancouver.
It’s a 3 hour drive each way including the border crossing so living at home wouldn’t happen so Seattle doesn’t accomplish what he would want.
I mean he would probably consider Colorado this year but I highly doubt Colorado would consider him lol.

He is a famous, pre-authorized professional athlete. He isn’t driving to Vancouver. He is taking a short private flight. Crossing the border for guys like that is nothing.
Seattle fits perfectly.

Not on game day, not on practice day, not on team meeting day.
The point of living at home is going there every day. Playing for any other team kills that, the end.
If he’s willing to accept playing for another team then his list should be the lowest taxation states so he can have the highest take home possible. If anything I could see that I suppose. Imagine how much nicer his take home would look being away from Ontario’s 53.53% hit on home games to let’s say Nashville’s 37%? He gets about $46.3K post taxation a home game atm, there he’d get around $61.5K.
Guess I wouldn’t blame him for agreeing to be moved to somewhere like that (or similar) for the next 4 years.

Tanev may need surgery, potentially out till late April/early May.
Just not a good season health wise for that guy, pure bad luck.

Get a load of this absolute fucking retard. You have a TERRIBLE defenseman, on a TERRIBLE contract, for the next 50 years, WITH A NTC, and you think ANYONE is going to take that contract?!?!?!
Then, if Tre does manage to find a trading partner that MR will waive for, we’ll have to throw in a sweetener, and then you’ll complain that we’re throwing away assets.
You truly, positively are the dumbest fucking fuck to ever be fucking dumb.

Holy fuck you’re dense.
The point of being closer to home is that you’re closer to home. He currently lives on the opposite side of the country. He’s also not 12 years old. He doesn’t have to go to mommies house every single day. Seattle is a 1 hour flight from Vancouver. It’s plenty close enough to “home” compared to Toronto.
If some other team wants him, find, dump his ass in Nashville, I don’t give a fuck where he lands. But Seattle is more than good enough to be closer to his “home” town than he currently lives now.

Get a load of this absolute total fucking retard who forgot that Erik Karlsson has been traded, multiple times. There’s always a GM out there even more retarded than you are who is willing to take on a bad player on a bad contract if the circumstances are in alignment.
Seattle has over 8 million in cap space. If the Leafs take back even half of that in another “bad” contract, they don’t have to sweeten anything. Desperate teams make desperate moves all the time trying to change their luck. Just as an example, Seattle has Montour on the LTIR and could use a puck mover. They can afford to let go of Oleksiak on an expiring contract. Not complicated retard.

Let’s say they find the way to move Reilly, but what is the next step to make D better?
The next step is blowing up the team and rebuilding. This D can’t be fixed, it can only be rebuilt.
Tanev is fucked. His career is basically over. If he does come back, you trade him immediately and hope somebody gives you a 1st round pick next year.
Same goes for OEL. You trade him at the trade deadline because he’s playing well and he doesn’t want to stay on a garbage team. So that could bring you a 1st round pick.
McCabe, he’s injured but that’s another guy you could trade to a team looking to make the playoffs (back to Chicago?) for a 1st round pick.
Carlo is injured but maybe you can trade him to a team as stupid as the Leafs were at the trade deadline.
Rielly, you dump for whatever you can. You don’t have to get back anything of value. Just removing him is a victory.
After that, you just have to draft, draft, draft and develop new players. You sign veterans on short term contracts and trade them at the deadline until you have young guys who can play full time.

I don’t believe it can be fixed either.
Tanev is a hero, but he should retire, he is one or two injures away from getting into very serious health problems. -
I don’t believe it can be fixed either.
Danford is on Team Canada WJC. The Leafs need 3 or 4 more guys BETTER than him in the next 3 years.
If they tank this year, they can draft Keaton Verhoeff who would be the Leafs first big, RHD 1st round pick prospect in a very, very long time.
If they trade Matthews to San Jose and Nylander to wherever, they could bring in multiple 1st round picks and prospects too.
Won’t happen until Treliving is fired though. He’s too retarded to rebuild properly. He only knows how to destroy teams.

That’s my point ding bat. Does being that close to home for 4 years matter that much? Why the fuck not just only agree to go to where you can earn the most? Then, since his next contract in his mid 30s (if he gets one) will be cheap as hell that’s when he can take it close to home.
All I’m saying is that he should just say fuck it, and go make what he can since I’m doubting competitors will ever see him as a core piece.

Sweden wins the all star game shootout competition bs the Fins to play for gold.
The shootout should never be used to determine this type of thing IMO.
I also hate the 3 on 3 OT for all playoff games including the gold medal game in the world juniors now.
Gold Medal games are 3 on 3 until a winner no shootout. So basically a completely different game from the other 60 minutes.
Give me 5 on 5 OT for any and all “playoff games”. No shootouts.

For me a tie is fine in regular season or round robin games and deciding games should only ever be 5 on 5 OT.

Go out to the middle of Lake nobody gives a fuck about you, cut a hole in the ice and drop a line in cry all alone about Marner no longer being a leaf, &/or how the big bad moderators banned you from an online hockey site multiple times for being a complete and utter fucking idiot.
I mean it’s a new year and all so there is still hope that one day you can get promoted from being the urinal cake tester at the airport in BFN where you allegedly work/live to taking over for the guy who sweeps the floors and whatnot – but I’m not sure how SIMS games actually work in real life so who knows. I guess you missed it in your training but your not supposed to test those urinal cakes by tasting them.
Oh and be nicer to your mom this year, she tries to get you those chicken nuggies as fast as she can when you scream at her like the angry, incel, man child you are but it’s a long walk from the kitchen down to the basement.

Having the greatest beer in the World probably helps too.Canada is always handicapped by not having it’s absolute best players because they stay in the NHL.
However, Misa and McKenna did not play at a high enough level. Iginla, Parekh, Martone, these guys showed up and scored big goals. But they didn’t get enough from Misa and McKenna. Canadian goalies still can’t steal games. The defenders allowed too many chances. Danford didn’t look that great.

I have been lurking here for quite some time as a long time HB user looking for a new place to see some great hockey talk.
I thought this place would be better than Hockey Buzz which is totally fucked now (not that it wasn’t before but at least there was SOME moderation there before the big ‘upgrade’ that was a steaming pile of dog shit) but sadly I was wrong this place feels like it’s worse that HB in some ways.
I figured the Leaf forum would be where most of the conversation was like at HB and I was right but holy shit I feel bad for the Leaf fans who come here and actually want to talk hockey because it sure seems like there is the one fucking moron who just comes here daily to shit on everyone and anything Leafs and calls people retards non-stop.
I see it happening again today.
What the fuck is wrong with him? Is he actually retarded or something?

King of the Retards Unholy Retarded Goalie!

Happy to talk hockey with adults who can carry a conversation and have differing opinions without defaulting to acting like an 8 year old – something you clearly are not able to do.
So to anyone else out there besides the King of the Retards – if Tanev is in fact done for the year should the Leafs throw in the towel on this season and trade off assets other teams want on expiring contracts and/or guy who are not a fit in Toronto and may be willing to go elsewhere?
I see some saying they should blow it up (ok one who keeps preaching it) but as an outsider to me trading Matthews would be a huge mistake that would come back to bite this team in the backside. Same for Nylander, Robertson seems like something you could trade & get something back for same with some of the D if you are throwing in the towel on this season.
You guys have Matthews, Nylander, Knies + Tavares on a killer team friendly contract, how many teams would love to have all that to build around?
Your goaltending doesn’t seem to be the issue, in fact Toronto seems deep in goaltending from my POV, despite injuries.

With or without Tanev, this team is terrible. They should trade Tanev, OEL, McCabe; literally everybody over 25 with any value.

The intelligent Leafs fans know this team is done for and should be blown up and rebuilt.

Matthews and Nylander are significantly more valuable to be traded away to accelerate the rebuild. Having them score goals and points on a losing team does nothing for this franchise today and the longer they wait for them to march to free agency, the worse it is for their value, as we saw with the retarded handling of Marner. Tavares’ contract “value” is worthless because the team sucks and he’s actually fallen off a cliff since his hot start. He’s useless to the Leafs in the playoffs and his cap savings did nothing to help the team other than be last in the division for most of the year because he can’t play two-way hockey. Scoring 2 goals and 4 points but losing 5-4 is still losing hockey, no matter how many goals and points you score.
Your goaltending doesn’t seem to be the issue, in fact Toronto seems deep in goaltending from my POV, despite injuries.
Goaltending is a big issue because the goalies, at times, have sucked but more importantly, have been off the ice due to injuries and other problems. The Leafs can’t build around or rely upon goalies that miss half the season on a regular basis. Effectively, the Leafs have a collection of unreliable back-up goalies and do not have a proven, dependable starter.
You calling yourself an “outsider” who calls himself Ranger makes it significantly more likely you’re a Galactic Retard.

If Tanev is put on the LTIR, would be eligible to play in the “playoffs”?
I know the new playoffs rule is that the team need to dress players to fit under the cap.I would think so provided the roster for the playoff game / games he plays in is under the cap.
Found this in an article (link below):
Beginning in spring 2026, the roster for every playoff game must be compliant with the cap, which will be $95.5 million this season. According to the memorandum of understanding between the NHL and the PA, teams will have to list 18 skaters and two goalies for each playoff game, with an average salary calculated that must not exceed the cap.

But hoping this leafs team doesnt make the playoffs this year, trade assets at TDL and get a top pick in the draft. This team desperately needs to refill the cupboard.
Retool in the off season and go for a run next year. -

Retool in the off season and go for a run next year.With no draft pick in 2026 and 2027, this team is fucked.
They aren’t bad enough to be a lottery pick. But they should start trading everybody over 25 until they get to Matthews, Nylander and Tavares traded in 2027.
Tank in 2028. Tank 2029. Try to sign McDavid to the max deal in 2029. Make a run in 2030.

Don’t what Boston to have a good 1st round pick curtousy of the Leafs.
The best way to do that is to win the Stanley Cup but we all know that ain’t happening.
Best case returns at the trade at the deadline 2026:
Laughton – 2nd round pick
McMann – 2nd round pick
Maccelli – 2nd round pick
Robertson – 2nd round pick
Jarnkrok – 3rd round pickStetcher – 2nd round pick
Best case returns at the trade at the deadline 2027:
Roy – 1st round pick
Domi – 2nd round pick
Joshua – 2nd round pickOEL – 1st round pick
Carlo – 1st round pick
McCabe – 1st round pickStolarz – 2nd round pick
(Maybe a few extra 1st or 2nd round picks if you sign left over veterans in the offseason to plug the gaps then trade them at the deadline)
Best case return at the 2027 draft:
Matthews – two 1st round picks, top prospect, young roster player
Nylander – 1st round pick, top prospect, young roster player
Tavares – 1st round pick
Rielly – Another bad contract, whatever, doesn’t matterTank for lottery pick 2028. Try to sign McDavid in 2029 (10% chance he even considers it) otherwise, tank for lottery pick in 2029. Compete 2030.

Normally I would agree.
But if memory serves me correctly, it is top 5 protected. So if they finish top 5 worse or their lottery ball gets moved up to top 5 they can keep their pick -

Which means the 2027 pick goes to Boston and the 2028 pick goes to Philadelphia.
And if the Leafs suck balls again next year (which they will because this team is fundamentally flawed) it marches them one year closer to losing Matthews and getting nothing out of it.
They have to punt on 2026 and 2027. Tank 2028 and 2029.
Just have to get as many 1st and 2nd round picks as possible to make up for it in 2026 and 2027.
Which is actually pretty good because then you can draft all your depth players before your franchise players instead of your franchise players pulling you out of lottery picks too early which is what happened with this current (previous) core players.

Boston is currently drafting 13th overall and it’ll probably stay there in the mid teens area. 13th to 18th range, depending on which teams (and when) sell off players.

Nice win by the leafs.
Leafs back to being 3pts out of a playoff spot.Gonna be an up and down year….on pace for 92 pts – as of today.
Nuts, so much for a top 5 pick at the draft.
Alright, well…..a run to the playoffs it is.Or they could still leaf it.
Either way, good win.
Problem is, everybody is “only 3 points out”. People have been saying that all year. Every other team is competitive which only makes it harder for the Leafs, regardless of the illusion that they’re “only” 3 points out. Buffalo won 10 in a row and they’re still barely a playoff team.
The Leafs absolutely suck on the PP for most of the year, they suck on goals against, they suck on the road, key players are injured perpetually and they have the 3rd hardest schedule left in the NHL (with more road games than home games).
They have a 15-20% to make the playoffs and then have their asses kicked in the 1st round.
No matter how much people want to BeLeaf, this team is not a true contender. People pretending that being a wild card team is an accomplishment are a joke.

Oh fuck… trade the mid season tradable guys away and still try to win games.
They’re not getting the pick but they’re not going to do much in the post season either. So trade and compete without hard expectations on whoever is left.

Treliving must be fired before that can happen. He can’t built a winner and he can’t rebuild. He’s JFJ all over again.

I dont think Treliving is very good and not the person I want trying to win now or rebuild. if last TDL wasnt enough to show his moves are very mediocre at best, i dont know what to say.
I just saw he also tried to trade Cowan and Danford for Brayden Schenn.take the keys away before he does more damage

Only slightly better than a 1st for Laughton and a 1st for Carlo.
At least Schenn has a Cup and plays with some balls.

was in Kyprios article in the Toronto Star…
In his column with the Toronto Star, Kypreos added: “Cowan was close to being sent to the Blues last season in a package with defence prospect Ben Danford to bring back Brayden Schenn, who the Leafs desperately wanted to go head to head with Panthers bruiser Sam Bennett in the playoffs. But word is it was St. Louis GM Doug Armstrong who was reluctant to pull the trigger.

Schenn would have done a lot more than Laughton and Carlo. If he was added to the team, even if he has ONE good game, that could have been the difference in the series.
And if it didn’t work out, at least the Leafs could rebuild in 2026 and 2027 still having their 1st round picks.
