Not raging at all.
Just calling you what you are.
If you honestly believe this team was fully leaning on a 4th overall pick who never once won a significant award your logic needs some work.
That’s a lot of personal attacks, seems like rage. It’s probably all your rage that’s blocking your ability to realize it.
I honestly believe that Roy and Maccelli, along with their Art Ross and Hart trophies, will win the Leafs the Cup. You convinced me.

All you do is cry about what you don’t like, you’re the baby, not me. I’m not upset at all, just making fun of how lame you are.
And yes, I’ll happily take a couple secondary guys over Marner, at least they play full games and do more than handle and pass the puck.
Go cheer on Vegas, you obviously like Marner more than the Leafs.

I won’t miss him.
Because you like it when the Leafs lose.
In regards to the out of context photo, you’re right, Marner should have been the 3rd man in and taken a penalty. That’s what a really smart, all-time great player would have done. He’s such a moron.
Or better yet, he should have chased Point into the locker room and punched him while the medical staff was treating his injury after Rielly threw him into the boards. If he had done that, the Leafs would have at least 5 Cups in a row by now.
Treliving is going to destroy this team the same way he left Calgary in shambles.
Start preparing your draft rankings for 2028 (if the Leafs don’t trade that pick too) because the next rebuild is around the corner. This team is just starting to circle the drain.
Are you back from purgatory? Wife must have leashed you, but gave you a hero cookie to behave, while she lay on her sofa and you rubbed her feet.
Anyway, I figure the Leafs have a 2 year window to get the job done. After that, it’ll be a retooling time. If they can’t get assets for Matthews and or Nylander, once they hit their 30’s, it’ll be a fire sale to recoup young assets, something like Boston is currently doing. The only outlier is if McDavid hits free agency and they flip either Matthews or Nylander to free up cap space and build around McDavid. I give that about a 5% chance of happening. The stupidity of the league to not broach the taxation issues, in the new Collective bargaining agreement was a major faux pa. The League is too fixated at trying to make the southern cities acceptable for hockey. They’ll do an expansion and allow the two deep south entrants to get competitive quickly and screw teams like Buffalo and Columbus that can’t get or keep good young players. Bettman and his owner buddies are ruining this great sport.
Still waiting for a realistic explanation of how they fix the tax issue. You going to change 32 team’s cap hit each year based on federal, state/provincial and municipal tax changes?

There’s two very simple solutions.
One is to allow teams to go over the cap by 10% with a dollar for dollar luxury tax that goes directly into the revenue sharing pool. Perhaps only allow teams to use the luxury tax for 2 or 3 years in a row so the same teams don’t always abuse it year after year similar to how teams can’t win too many lottery picks in row anymore.
The second is to use “dollars taken home by the players” as the new cap. If a contract is signed and the taxes change, that contract is grandfathered from the day it was signed.

The Knights continued to do just fine without him, especially this past year.
I was so damn happy to see him leave London, was hoping the leafs would have grabbed Hanifin instead but Hunter was involved so I wasn’t shocked. I hoped he’d grow up but he didn’t. Still the same little weak assed guy that he was as a kid in junior.
Anyways, I’m done, I’m glad he’s no longer a leaf, I won’t miss him at all, be as good as I felt that he was no longer a Knight just amplified.

Owners are not going to agree to a luxury tax. Hard cap is much better for them and it doesn’t sound like it was ever really a factor in negotiating latest CBA. Besides, it’s not a solution to the issue of teams in low tax jurisdictions having an advantage.
Trying to calculate an accurate “dollars taken home” for every player in the league is nit realistic. For starters they’re not paying taxes based on their overall AAV. Their base salaries and signing bonus amounts change every year as do tax rates, exemptions, write offs, etc.

3rd man in? Look who was on the ice at the time. Kucherov, Point and Stamkos. So Mitch couldn’t handle those bruisers? He probably needed his Depends changed, with the thought of having to fight someone that was the same size as he was. I also remember this year, when Matthew Tkachuk was chasing him around, late in the game, slashing at him. He should have poll axed him across the ankles and that nonsense would have stopped immediately. He just didn’t have the stomach to do what needed to be done. Somewhere, I read that UG/AA mentioned that Marner was a lot like Gilmour in his prime. What a joke! There’s a reason that they called Gilmour “Killer”. That look of intensity and willingness to stick an opponent when necessary is part of what made Gilmour a bonafide star. Marner was never that and never will be that.

Flip Gilmour for Marner in that pic and I have a pretty good feeling Doug wouldn’t just be standing there lol

At least tie someone up. Somewhere there are two Lightning players on one Leafs player….
I did like the Reaves signing but as the game went on, I see that he wasn’t what I thought the player he’d be/was.
Let’s see what Berube can do with Thrun who’s not small. That Leafs D are big men.I did like the Reaves signing but as the game went on, I see that he wasn’t what I thought the player he’d be/was.
Let’s see what Berube can do with Thrun who’s not small. That Leafs D are big men.Think he makes the team or do they risk sending him down? At his age I’d like seeing him get time on the marlies to see if he fits their structure with regular ice time. If he does resign the RFA, if not let him walk.

Could be fighting Myers for a spot on the team or is he the next Benoit?
