Blow. It. Up. Tear. It. Down. Time to start again.

Is that Nylander that trips him? All Nylander's fault. Typical.

Normally I'd say "just win". But winning just delays the inevitable at this stage so I dunno if I even care if they do. Well, I do. Cos even when they turned up for 6 minutes the other day and completely flipped the game I was screaming with joy like everyone else. But imagine how much fun it...

I replied to OTH's post before I saw this one. I think we maybe agree and are surmising similar things. Interestingly some of the best "characters" willing to put the team on their back of late have been goalies - thinking of CuJo and Belfour. I agree fully on your point about the skaters.

There seems to be a bit of a trend in hockey these days of just making your "best" player captain when often someone who isn't the best player might have more of the traits you want in a leader other than just being really, really, really good at hockey. Looking at the Leafs roster, it's...

I’ve been ready for several weeks. I’d start with the GM, and probably the coach. Then I’d get a GM who is a little more progressive and modern and has a clear definable idea of the style they want their team to play, and a coach who coaches to the strengths of the roster built. Preferably more...

Yeah. I do feel Robertson has been messed around a bit, but I agree you can’t have both him and Domi. You could maybe have “hidden” one of them in some kind of offence only top 6 role if they were sheltered by, say Matthews and Marner. And probably more so Robertson just cos he’s younger and...

I’d agree with this. I think he probably has a spot on a mid to lower end team with low expectations where he can kind of do what he wants. Even somewhere like Utah or Seattle where he can also be a bit more of a stand out personality as well. Not sure he has the nous to be a “role player” on...

Sharks are a fun team to watch.

That’s Vecna’s hand

Oh 100%. But I just wouldn’t blame him at all for feeling/acting that way.

It’s a shame they wasted a couple of potential Hildeby starts (and possibly undeserved points) playing that guy they got off waivers whose name I can’t even remember now. (Was it Primeau?)

I know Robertson has asked for trades and all that over the years. But if I was him now, I’d be close to the point of flat out refusing to play until I got traded. He must be so fed up.

Well, I started the 2025 season thread on the back of some signings and rumours in early December, so, probably time to do the same for 2026… Cease and Pince already signed. Bieber taking up his option, and a pretty decent looking start to building out the rotation. Rumours, seemingly...

Which team? 😀

I can’t see them making any change mid road trip. Not to say they shouldn’t. But GM and coach go at the same time imo.

They were winning when I went to sleep…

I’m not. I’m going to sleep. Night all 😴

10 (mostly weak) shots after 35 minutes. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!

Can that not be waved off? Distinct kicking motion by Rielly.
