As weird as it may sound saying it, me and my buddies starting up a keeper baseball league has elevated my overall baseball watching significantly.  And that's with me having always been a big baseball watching fan beyond just the Jays prior to.

For all the hype they came with, Shapiro and Atkins sure have been underwhelming almost a decade into their tenure here when it comes to them supposedly building a sustainable winner.

Even that being the case, those still are very subpar offers.  I'd like to think a talent like Marner, even heading into UFA, can bring back a more substantial package than that.

Just had a chance to finally read this.  Holy...this are flat out terrible.  Especially that Utah one -- that has to be a joke...right?! Do I think trading Marner is the right choice?  Possibly...probably.  Particularly if the team is looking to shake things up with this core.  But an extremely...

Initially I was lukewarm to the idea of Berube.  But now that he's been hired, I'm growing on it.  If he can bring accountability to the team and can push the players to play their best, that's the first step.  Just want to see an honest effort night in, night out, and hopefully he can prod them...

Bertuzzi was also on a one-year show-me deal.  It didn't work out, and the Leafs aren't obligated to him beyond this year.  He didn't live up to expectations, and he showed mere sneak peaks of what he was capable of only a handful of times.  We can bellyache all we want about him, but there is...

Think that was well said and done. He also looks more relaxed and at ease already.  Certainly doesn't hurt being wherever he is with that water behind him. LOL Can say what we want about these guys as coaches and players, yet at the end of the day they're human too.  So as much as I/we may...

Had to be done.  As I suggested the other day, would not surprise me one bit if he makes his way to Pittsburgh. He isn't a horrible coach.  Don't think he is a really good one either though.  He's just...fine.  He'll get another job.  But tagging him as the one to lead this franchise to glory...

I was expecting a more concrete explanation of his health issues during the playoffs than the vague response we got today.  I was fully expecting him to say something like he tore ligaments in his knee or ankle off the McAvoy play.

I could totally see Dubas firing Sullivan and bringing in Keefe if and when he is fired by the Leafs. Keefe seems like a good guy.  The players obviously like and respect him.  But he's been unable to bring the potential out of this team.  He hasn't lived up to expectations, and he'll take the...

What amount would you consider that? $3 million a season? I think I'd be be comfortable upwards of 3 years, $5 million per, at most.

We'll be able to dissect this all summer long, but come back in the series down 3-1, miss Matthews or Nylander for 5 of the 7 games, 2-1 OT loss by the most fortuitous of (and planned) bounces in Game 7 -- I can't get myself too worked up over it. There will be change.  I liked the extra grit...

No matter what happens tomorrow, one thing I've really enjoyed from this team is the jam and moxie they have that we haven't seen in a long time.  Not being pushed around, the grittiness, some of the blocked shots.  It's a different team makeup right now, and at least we know they won't be a...

Woll with a series saver.  And Tavares with a burst of speed we haven't seen him make in who knows how long to make the winner happen.

I've said it since a year or two after Babcock's firing, and I'll continue to say it -- the team would have been way further ahead if he were still around.

PP is beyond pathetic. Imagine paying big money for that crap.

It's awful.  The drop-back pass leaving four guys stagnant at the line drives me bonkers.

I was being cheeky and facetious, obviously (well, maybe not so obvious).  Just expressing frustration as to how awful the PP is and wasted opportunity after wasted opportunity.  The PP should be damn near automatic with the quintet they throw out there.

What's the point of complaining about non-penalty calls?  The PP is garbage anyways.

Bertuzzi can't buy one.
