That's why I still feel like they should just double down and get another impact forward. Just own who you are, a run a gun team. Fukc it, out score teams, make 6-5.


that style of play really only works in the regular season though, you still need defense and goaltending in the playoffs. i.e. literally montreal last year.

i mean it wouldnt but it would be at the same time dont you think? do you know how fast guys that are just getting their paychecks in the league would try and put a stop to the war or denounce their russian citizenship in order to continue playing here? kaprizov gunna make pennies there compared to over here if he was banned.


That's probably the one thing the worst for the guys if they're banned by the league or not issued visas. Then they'll likely be forced to get suspended without pay.

I don't know if even that would change anything. Fundamentally the theme of their recent playoff failures has been the fact that their stars also tend to disappear when they're needed the most. What they need is those guys they pay $40M a year to play like they're worth that money.

Without a doubt, that’s why IMO supplementing them with another scoring top 6 fwd would help.

But yes, this team only goes as far as Matthews Marner Tavares Nylander and Campbell carry them.

😎 should have warned you guys about that, be prepared. You like numbers will go up. Also boy, I sounded like a 5 year old talk about hockey. Now I sound like a 10 year old. Thanks for the help guys. I really improved

You could scratch Campbell out of that list. He's been just bad too.

Went looking and the thread was deleted.

User was pretty notorious and hated around these parts, that’s all I can say.


Yeah that was one for the ages...... Clear 100% undeniable troll that knows he's trolling, but skirts the line of technically not trolling by the utmost definition but everyone knew he was doing it to just get a rise. I played along for just a little to see if he would fold and of course he didn't, he doubled down on it. It was so silly that I wanted him to bet me the trade would happen and he kept deflecting every time. I literally gave him all odds that would be in his favor AND i was going to say if this trade happened I would delete my account. Lol Nada......guess he realized he was screwed no matter what. Either way after he deflected for the 100th time, I deleted the thread because it served nothing anymore.

@justaboss He's banned now. Just checked to see his profile and looks like he finally pressed the wrong button with a mod...... Won't mention his username but if you dig a little, you probably could find out who it was pretty easily. He was a pens fan. wink

Dos the leafs goaltending have to do with the goalie coach. Also yes I’m liking everything from the first page of this season


I can tell, seeing as how I went off for 30 minutes, came back to 41-FORTY ONE!-notifications, flipped out, and then realized they were all from you tears of joy

I wonder if Mrazek continues to struggle

If simple 1 for 1 between Toronto and Seattle could take place where

Toronto sends Mrazek and a 6th (make up for 300k) for Dreidger

Cause thats probs the only way to move him without actively paying

Heck could go blockbuster

Ex.

SEA

Gio + Dreidger + Donato

TOR

Mrazek + Kerfoot + Picks and prospects

I changed it because I learned that it's best to leave politics out of hockey (and, unless necessary, life in general)
