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.
Welcome to team tank. Project Rebuild 2028.
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.
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.
Sorry I don’t like whiny hockey players, and yes, due to this I’d rather see a losing leafs team than have one on the roster. Winning isn’t everything. 🤷🏻♂️
You rather having a losing Leafs team rather than a successful one with “whiny” players is the definition of being a whiner. Guess you hate yourself.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
MM – 20 GP / 4 goals / 17 assists / 21 Points +10
WN – 18PG / 9 Goals / 18 assists / 27 Points +6
a
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.
