Hurricanes @ Leafs - Mar. 20th, 7:00pm - SN

[lamajama]

Bérubé is a stupid coach. Underplays Quillan. Blames Woll for his shitty system of getting horribly outplayed.

Man did he ever ride Binnington's coattails. I can't believe I was excited about his hiring. They have blown the chance to finish bottom 5. Fire him already and see what the team looks like without his stupid system

This is an a** that knows he’s lost the team and his job. Hopefully after the season as we don’t want any coach bump.

The coach bump doesn't matter at this point.

Assuming the teams between play at their current pace the Leafs basically have to lose out the season to fall into the bottom 5. The Leafs are pretty likely to finish anywhere from 6th to 8th at this point. The odds of winning the draft lottery at 6th are 7.5%. The odds of winning it at 8th are 6.0%.

The Leafs are 2-4-4 (.400) over their last 10 games. The Leafs have to play historically bad hockey to fall into the bottom 5 at this point. Vancouver has essentially locked up 1st overall. Calgary is playing worse over their last 10 games than their season average. Chicago and New York are barely playing above their season average. St. Louis is on a heater and is still 6 points back of the Leafs.

DRAFT POSITION	OLYMPIC BREAK (57 GP)	TRADE DEADLINE (63 GP)	TODAY (70 GP)
5	11 points back	8 points back	6 points back
4	11 points back	8 points back	7 points back
3	13 points back	9 points back	7 points back
2	14 points back	10 points back	8 points back
1	21 points back	20 points back	21 points back

Just not enough games without the Leafs just being insanely bad and they haven't done that even with Berube behind the bench.
