And cowan is younger, so keep him.
You cowardly incel….wannabe american trash
So can’t trade Cowan for McDavid because he’s 21 and McDavid is 29?
You are an absolutely libtarded cuck.
fucking treleaving traded Minton (13g-12a-25p +15) and that 1st for Carlo
so leafy
Leafs have been losing out to the Bruins since Bobby Orr.
Should be an outright ban for this franchise to ever make trades with Boston.
I think that this team as it sits is unfixable and needs major surgery. Looking at how many top end teams handle the Leafs, they aren’t winning anything this year. Better to divest for draft picks and retool through free agency. Just need to get in the bottom 5 in the draft and move those lost picks 1 year forward. Just let it crash and be done with it. See if Pelly has the guts to completely gut this team and bring in a whole new management team, or is it just more lip service. Empty seats will speak his language.
Can the Leafs get trans surgery and just identify as Cup champions?
nice Domi breaks the shutout with a pp goal
boo yeah
Needed that PP goal when the Leafs were down 4-3 to Vegas with 7 minutes left in the 3rd period but they were too busy getting 0 shots on net.
That Steve Sullivan PP (33% input) is pooowwwwwwerrrful!
No.
I wouldnt trade any of our young quality players for any olders players.
This team isnt winning a cup, keep the young talent.Wright is 22 you retard.
I believe not any coach can succeed with this group of players. Some will do better, but not nearly good enough.
I mostly agree because Berube’s success came with a team that had a top-4 D that included Parayko, Pietroangelo, Bouwmeester and Dunn. Four balanced, 23+ minute per night guys. Then the bottom two guys were Gunnarsson, Edmundson and Bortuzzo on limited minutes. That’s far cry from having to deploy Rielly for 23+ minutes a night.
This collection of players does not suit Berube. With Marner, he had a reliable shut-down, Selke nominated winger who could shut down a line like Barkov. Without Marner, the Leafs top line is way worse defensively, which forces Matthews to play more defensively and also forces him to carry the puck more offensively. That has hurt Matthews a lot at both ends of the ice.
If this group of guys had a coach that let them play an all out attack and could organize the PP better, they would win more games 5-4 but ultimately lose in the playoffs, like they did under Keefe. The only way that style wins is if they have an elite world class goalie, kind of like how Vasilevskiy back stops the Tampa Bay Lightning. But the Leafs have two often injured back-ups so it doesn’t work.
The Leafs can play like this for another 60 minutes without scoring a single goal.
With a PP for 60 minutes and they still might not score a goal or win this game.
Steve Sullivan that PP genius…
Is/will McMann be woth $5M cap hit on the open market?
wow!
I sometimes get the feeling, when he’s playing at his best, that he could be one of those ones that got away if the Leafs let him go but logically, the Leafs should sell high on him to rebuild.
He’s going to be 30, he’s 6’2″, 220 and is basically a 20 goal, 40 point guy. Considering this is a contract year, if he was going to “break out” it should / would have been this year. But he’s the same.
Then again, Hyman, at 31-33, had his 27-36-54 goal seasons. If the Leafs don’t sign McMann for 5 million, do they spend that 5 million on anybody better? Probably not.
Hire me!!! I couldn’t do any worse than the last 10 GM’s. First thing I’d fix is getting the best scouts available, hiring them away with cash from MLS&E. Second, get the best coach available at the end of the season. I’d auction Matthews off to the highest bidder. Nylander, same thing. Any dumb GM’s that want a 3rd or 4th liner, I’d make them pay a premium, once I upsold them. What pisses me off about Treliving, is the value added trades. Instead of just sending the 1st rounder for a Laughton, they throw in a prospect. The young Russian that had potential, or a Fraser Minton to Boston in the Carlo deal. Having those two might have salvaged the season this year, but no, they’re going to be playing the playoffs with their new teams. It’s a fucking travesty and it’s been the policy for too many decades. Now we sit and watch as the team sinks to the depths of the standings, with no draft capital, and long term high end contracts. Hire me MLS&E! I’ll have you back in the playoffs in 3 years!!!
The best scouts available can’t make picks if the picks get traded. The best scouts in the world can’t develop players. Or sign them to contracts. Or trade them. Or coach them.
Reality is, without the absolute best President of Hockey Ops. + GM, this franchise is doomed to mediocrity with zero accountability coming from fans who consistently reward failure.
Remember when Leafs ticket prices drastically spiked this year? Did that positively change a damn thing on the ice?
if so SELL SELL SELLL Mortamor! SELLLLLLLLLL
Have to fire Treliving first.
Even if Treliving did decide to sell, I don’t trust him to make the best deals.
He’s a retard who should be making terrible food at Boston Pizza.
