Hiring Gillis feels like hiring Treveiling. Hiring a GM who just walked out of a tire fire.

Patriotism towards a hockey team should be based on where the players come from, not the geographical location of where they play.

Lukes is great... I don't know what you're talking about. A couple of big games moved him up to .214. In Schnider we trust.

How about one hire at the top, and they build their own team?

Do we know that guy? I am not sure we do.

Chirs Pronger was a ruthless killer during his playing days. I wouldn't mind someone who isn't afraid to do some dirty work. Whoever it is, I hope it's a Vegas approach to running this team.

Who would do the exit interviews? In my head, I thought management would check in with each player to discuss each player's specific scenario. We have no management (or capable coach).

Good point, every new GM eventually fires the coach they inherit. Just do it now.

Huh? No money equals no supporting cast. This Covid freezing the cap dialogue in nonsense, too. How is that only the Leafs are using this dialogue? We put all our cap into the wrong horses and got burned.

I hate this comment. They could not afford anything else. They even had to give away additional depth/picks for retention and cap dumps. You cannot pay that much to 4 forwards and expect to ice decent depth.

How did they do it last year? I really don't have a clue how it's going to go. Even if they get in, I doubt anyone would consider them a contender. I don't believe in this core. I would be content with a rebuild. I am mad about how much money the core 4 made and how little they delivered. For...

The Linkedin thing is funny. Pronger did not make it better by bringing this up. He basically said, "Yep, EDM's a shithole we wanted nothing to do with". Time was healing those wounds, and you poked the bear by publishing a book guaranteed to lose money?

Thank you, Carlton! You're a trooper. I often wonder how the play-by-play guys do it in any sport where the team just sucks.

He played almost 10 minutes, and the only stats registered were a -1 and 3 faceoff losses. No: points, shots, hits, blocks, nothing! Why?

shhhhhhhhhhhhhh

At 5th last, the odds are 41.8% they pick in the top 5 and 58.2% they don't.

Stolarz can't even stay healthy to the end of the season. Untradable now.

Jankrok... the most invisible hockey player in existence. He has no place on any roster. Jarnkrok, 2 assists in his last 25 games, he's invisible, doesn't even touch the puck for games at a time, while playing 11-14 minutes. It's insane that he gets any ice time whatsoever. He's not evolving...

I wonder what would have happened had we not signed him? I thought it was a mistake when the Leafs signed him. It wasn't the right time yet. A few more years of high draft picks would have been nice. A slow build to the playoffs probably would have brought the cap hits down. Maybe the rest of...
