What is Gardiner?
Hopefully one of the leafs fans can explain this to me..
I see two schools of thought on here.
A) Gardiner is underrated and will be paid much more in his next deal
B) Gardiner is overrated and a liability

He is both lol. What he does well, deceptive with the puck moves it very well contributes on offence and is great at breaking out of the zone. He is great at preventing zone entry and gap control as well.
Now the bad.... sometimes he forgets that he is playing hockey and not watching a game.... he lacks grit and determination. He’s like the Kovalev of defencemen...
Basically, he is a left handed discount pk Subban without the attitude.
On an other note: I'm ****ing pissed. I went to this game, and the team decided to not show up, But I'm to busy being angry at the ****s in the lower bowl who Decided that booing the 2nd best dman this team has had since kaberle and willy everytime they touched the puck when they were trying to comeback from a 1 GOAL DEFICIT was a good idea in any way. Gards has his flaws, but he does everything for this team, and half the fan base doesn't have a ****ing clue. These morons are going to run gards out of town when he has indicated a willingness to play nice with dubas and try to help on his contract to keep this team together, and these are the same people who constantly say the defense needs an upgrade! Losing your 2nd best guy who produces a ton of offence from the back end is NOT the way to improve the D core.
And then they boo willy! ****ing unbelievable...
****. This city doesn't deserve a winning team, They deserve the JF Jr era for the rest of time. If they ever put a team in Hamilton, I'm switching over, cause this city and so many of its fans honestly disgust me.
****!
with that being said from what I heard in my section (318) was people getting mad at those idiots booing, so not everyone has an IQ of 12...
