Thread: Get rid of all the Dubas players
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brad_Treliving</b></div><div>Yup couldn't have said it better myself!!!! Any cup winner would say that grit, heart, and physicality gets you through the playoffs. Skill gets you to the playoffs

I remember when everyone gloated about how Dubas robbed the Florida Panthers in the Denis Malgin for Mason Marchment deal. One is scoring NHL playoff goals right now and the other is playing pond hockey in a soft Swedish league. Also, I find it funny how Dubas thought it was wise to keep Kerfoot, Holl, Malgin, and Engvall around and let Hyman walk to the Oilers, what a massive mistake that was

Kerfoot: 0G 0A 0P in 0 playoff games
Holl: 0G 0A 0P in 0 playoff games
Malgin: 0G 0A 0P in 0 playoff games
Engvall: 0G 1A 1P in 2 playoff games

Hyman: 4G 1A 5P in 2 playoff games
Marchment: 1G 0A 1P in 2 playoff games</div></div>

Hyman was a massive blunder. He's been so consistent in Edmonton I mean 50 goal season WTF but ask Wheeler and DumDum Dom and they say they liked Pool Party's analytics better.

Jfresh literally just stans for Pool Party because he likes his funny faces as a cope as he wouldnt shut up about Puljujarvi's 'elite metrics' a few years back despite everyone with a hockey IQ seeing that Jesse Puljujarvi had zero hockey iq like many of these metrics clowns.

What is Jesse Puljujarvi doing these days?
Healthy scratch most night in Pittsburgh, 3rd or 4th team.
Yeah he's doing great!

Thread: Get rid of all the Dubas players
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brad_Treliving</b></div><div>Those people honestly destroyed the game of hockey. NHL needs more Don Cherrys and less of Scott Wheeler, Jonas Seagull, Dom Lwhateverhisnameis, and Kyle Dubas</div></div>

I love it! You are triggering the hell out of these ppl that never played the game and only look at the hockey analytics that arent even standardized across the industry BUT change their model every other day or so to fit their own narrative.

Hockey analytics pioneers are not even statistics majors in most cases. They have limited specific education in the area. Some of them proficient at Math but have no idea about proper statistical methodology, conclusion, paradigms etc. Hockey is an infinitely complicated game.

<strong>Not baseball.</strong>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>hey, remember when Domi was so out of control dumb that he cost the leafs the first game? How about thinking about how much be hates immigrants instead of paying attention to Marchand and letting him score the game winner without breaking a sweat? Oh right, you dont watch the games and only read the box scores. Typical nerd approach</div></div>

I want the drugs you are on?!? What the hell does immigrants have to do with the box scores..? wut

Your virtue signaling doesnt show up on the box scores either btw and you dont get goals playing on Marner's wing... because you BeLeaf.
You are a fan with zero input and players personal lives don't influence the box score whether they go by he/she/they

Thread: Bye Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brad_Treliving</b></div><div>and I don't blame them, this is just a Leafs fan talking about what kind of return I would love to have for Marner (letting him walk to FA also works). If I'm a Philly fan, I would never trade a heart and sole player it TK for MM</div></div>

TK is amazing.
The Oilers need to do everything to get this kid in the offseason if it's even a possibility that he can be moved and the Flyers can take on cap which they have shown to be willing with Briere at the helm.

TK with Draisaitl and Nugent Hopkins then Hyman with Mcdavid and Holloway. Jesus Christ. Give the Flyers the Oilers next 2 1sts, Ceci, Broberg and Bourgault. Just give everything in the cupboard and they have multiple Cups in the bag as long as Mcdrai take somewhat of a discount in 2025 and beyond. Just dont hand out contracts like the Leafs and they are Golden!

In general when we look at all the cup winners in recent years they fielded big Dcores

VGK Cup Winner (2023) 🤷

Hague 6'6 230 pounds
McNabb 6'4 201 pounds
Pietrangelo 6'3 215 pounds
Hutton 6'3 201 pounds (7th Dman)
Whitecloud 6'2 207 pounds
Theodore 6'2 197 pounds
Martinez 6'1 210 pounds

And in that series vs. FLA we saw the damage those guys did. FLA just could not get much done with these guys preventing net drives.

Its a copy cat league and teams will see okay what do I need to help my team win lord Stanley by copying what the other guy did. Now yes small Dman can work but they need to be Makar level gifted

Thread: DUBAS ELIMINATED
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ggha777</b></div><div>Not bringing back Dubas was the best move for Toronto</div></div>

I honestly don't get why Dubas took the job with PIT, short of just wanting a paycheck.

Guy already has it on his resume that he's the guy who blew Toronto's window due to bad cap management. Now he follows it up with a job that honestly, at no fault of his own, he's doomed to fail at. They blew through futures for years trying (And succeeding) to compete.

Like, if PIT wants to ride out that core group until the end, that's fine and understandable, but the consequence is a long, ugly rebuild. (Look at what it got Detroit and San Jose) Dubas is gonna be the scapegoat for it, even though their fate was sealed before he even stepped in.
