Getting sick and tired of this team

Team: 2020-21 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 3, 2020
Published: Aug. 3, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I've said it before and I,ll say it again. This team only counts on their talent and isn't built for the playoffs. Dubas built a very talented team that's for sure but he also created a team with little no work ethic.

Will to win>talent, 90+ times out of 100. Change my mind.

It's been obvious for MONTHS now that Dubas has no clue how to build a sustainable contender. He's got no clue that will to win wins you arguable more games than skill.

I really wish the Leafs did not sign Tavares. I would rather have younger talent than a voiceless, soft, old man.

No matter how sick of them you are, you can’t rob other teams.

Yeah, I agree NSH wouldn't do this, which is why I said to add balancing picks.

I feel like that’s something you say when a 4th might balance it out, not when the other team is going to ask for a 1st +

They should look at how the 2016 and 2017 Penguins were built if they want a team with speed and skill to win in the playoffs

Matt Martin is UFA. He was liked by the young guns in the dressing room.

This is the 3rd youngest team in the league. How many times did Jordan fail before winning? Just get off it with your troll nonsense

Says someone who thinks that a D composed of guy who has pretty big defensive gaps, very good number 2, a number 5 in a good team, an average/below average number 4, a rookie ish and guy who hasn’t played a second in the NHL will be good enough to win something big

Team that consistently makes the same mistakes over and over without EVER learning from them, a team which has issues even showing up for heaven’s sake, a team that has MASSIVE issues matching any team playing good defense, a team led by a **** who can’t even lock up his 2 best youngsters to 7-8 year deals...


Want me to go on?

They lost 2-0 with one of those being an empty netter. It was a game that could have gone either way. Columbus played their best while TO didn't, it's unlikely TO plays as bad and Columbus isn't going to get better. Just alarmist nonsense. Your "opinion" is all you see and just say whatever bs makes it sound reasonable which generally is the same old Dubas sucks because reasons troll garbage. Go to bed.

Columbus can't play better... uh ok, but they just need to be as good as yesterday and they win. They suffocated the Leafs' offense.

Also, YES Dubas sucks.

-couldn't lock up Matthews to a 7-8 year deal because reasons
-couldn't lock up Marner to the same kind of deal that Rantanen (6 years, just like MM and smaller AAV or what Kyle Connor got (longer)

Marner's deal has 1 bad thing in it... the term or the AAV, choose. If you think the AAV is the issue, then lower it to 9,5 mil per and keep the 6 years.
If you think the major issue is the term than add 2 years . That way it would look much better, yet Dubas has NO spine when it comes to contracts.

Giving up 6 mil over 3 years along with a M-NTC for a d-man who has played what, 12 games on the top 4??

Imagine what Lou would have done....get them all signed and manage to fit the 2 "anchor" contracts (Zaitsev and Marleau) under the cap, without trading away two 1st Rd picks.

It’s one game that didn’t go our way. The offence was not clicking. Certainly not the end of the world.

On a positive note I thought the defence held up well. No way Andersen should have let that weak goal in. He played well though. Just didn’t get the result we all wanted.
