I'm tapping out of Leafs hockey for a few seasons. Fully going in on Raptors and I'll keep rocking my Jays gear.
Because winning a Stanley Cup with a roster of hall of famers and gold medals with a roster of hall of famers is hard!
I agree. As good as John Tavares was during the regular season, for 11 mil you expect him to be top 10 in scoring. Virtually everyone ahead of him in scoring made less money except for McDAvid and Kane. And both cracked 100. This guy was a 88 point player on Marner's line. Overhyped.
isles literally got rid of him and replaced him with no one.
You give any coach in the NHL that wings team he had for 5 years and they win more than 1 cup with that group.
Habs beat Boston in Game 7 of Round 2 in 2014 too. Being coached by Michel Therrien. Without any players of half the calibre of Matthews/Marner/Tavares.
FA contracts are always overpriced. You're paying to acquire an asset for free. The idiotic part was not trading from your now incredibly strong forward corps to help the D.
I PLAY TO WIN GORD.
Damn Sobeys commercials during Jets games on TSN all year and it was twice per break. blargh
LOL, one tough question (one of the first I remember from the media, who are scared shitless of Bab's) and he nopes out.
Not sure what to do with Babcock. Hard to find a better coach but at the same time guy hasnt done anything in the playoffs in nearly a decade.
Nashville is in a similar pickle but with their gm. They need a fresh voice. Outside of their cup appearance theyve done nothing under poile.

Was he the Jets home announcer this year? I thought they had a different local guy who I remember being pretty good.
Yeah that was gutless. I wish Toronto's media was tougher on him. Throw him a bunch of softballs then let him walk away the first hard question he gets.
Lol, I can't wait for the sequel: "Young Leafs - Same old shit"
Not to worry, we've got Poile Jr. being groomed as the next Preds GM!
Just end me.
No, that was Dennis Beyak, who is excellent. I just was bludgeoned to death every commercial break on TSN with Gord Miller and Cassie Campbell. If we got him at all for an announcer, it would have been on a Saturday on SN or CBC.
That feel when I want to see the Piss Knights lose, but I also want to see the Ass get squashed in the 2nd round which the Knights are more likely to pull off...
Babcock should be getting in the hot seat. He's made a ton of stupid mistakes.
- Giving Marleau 17 minutes in Game 6
- Benching Matthews in the 3rd period of Game 7 bc reasons?
- Lack of adjustments throughout the series as Boston forced them into physical play as opposed to puck movement + stretching the ice with their elite offensive talent.

nah the embarrassing part is babcock didn't make a single adjustment the entire year
always throwing the same trash lines out there
never fixing the PP or even changing anything to do with it
we got jake muzzin to give hainsey less ice time... guess what? let's give hainsey all the ice time.
just a constant state of stupid
Now you know what us Wings fans went through for all those seasons.
Ya, not sure what to make of Jones tonight since he hasn't been tested too much and I can't blame him for the goal that went in.
To all my fellow Leafs fans: we have a lot to look forward to. Matthews showed up for this series. Marner wasn't amazing but he had a career year. Same with JT. Rielly and Dermott look great.
Let's see what Dubas does after this loss.
We will get em next year.
Go Leafs go!

I don't think Babcock is on the hot seat, but I wouldn't be shocked to see Dubas come out of nowhere and remove him. It seems pretty obvious they're on different pages in terms of player useage and strategy, and Dubas is suppose to be an outside the box kind of guy.
I may regret saying this in a couple of days but I think there's literally nothing to look forward to. I have no idea what it takes to build a good hockey team. What I do I see this team has all these big famous superstar names like Matthews, Tavares, Marner, and Nylander and none of it means shit. They're fucking losers. I feel like any other management and coaching team in the world would be more successful than this sack of 1st round exit losers.
Martin wasn't good enough to play for us. Komarov wasn't good enough to play for us. Yet NYI plays more playoff games than us with Martin and Komarov? Tavares leaves NYI. A superstar leaves NYI to join our team. And NYI plays more playoff games than us?
Someone else in the thread said "trade for a d and goaltender, not complex idea". They went for Jake Muzzin, a Stanley cup champion.
Doesn't mean shit. The management and coaching team has no fucking idea what they're doing.
