It wasn't a big game for the team in the grand scheme of things, but I think it was a big game for us fans. And they did what they always seem to do in a big game for the fans, unfortunately. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

There is literally one untouchable on this roster, maybe two, because I'd count Nylander. This is the most humiliating defeat I've seen in 35 years. And most deflating. That said, if they trade Marner, it better be for similar value and I don't know who that is right now. But congrats Leafs...

What's his situation when it comes to waivers? Does he need to clear to be sent to the Marlies? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Absolutely love this deal. Two years in a row the Leafs have made a major splash on July 1. That's fun. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Last I heard on the subject, (grain of salt, because I didn't see much of the Marlies myself) Sandin has leapt ahead of Liljegren on the prospect chart. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Looks like it. Later in this round plus an extra late pick next year maybe? Whatevs, I guess. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

I love the rumoured deals for both Kapanen and Johnsson. Two top six forwards who are similar but also bring different weapons for $7M combined. That's a win. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Anyone still watching this? I'm kinda hoping Daniil Gutik continues his free fall and the Leafs take him. Big kid, highly skilled by most accounts, but can't skate for beans, apparently. Maybe Barb can remedy that? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Gretzky's records are safe for another year.

I like the pick and I love that they gained an extra pick to grab the guy they wanted. I also enjoy that the Leafs actually have picks in the draft. What fun.

Ugh... Anyway, bye JVR, bye Uncle Leo. I'd bring Bozak back on a sweetheart deal, like $2M a year, which I doubt he'd do, so goodbye to him too, I guess. Gardiner's performance in this game was horrible, which I'm sure has been documented in the gameday thread... And a complete flop from...

The Leafs best players (outside of Freddie and Marner) have yet to be their best players. Tonight is the night. Go Leafs Go!

Still way too many brutal turnovers for my liking and it seemed (at least for a while there, not sure of the final stats) they were getting eaten alive in the faceoff circle, especially in their own end. Should Bozak just take every draw possible against Bergeron from now on? Marner was...

Scorching hot take: Andersen needed to steal Game 5, now Matthews/Nylander have to steal Game 6. Actually, we might still need Andersen to stand on his head anyway.

OK, so it's a little ironic that what was supposed to be a light, stress-free thread to allow people to just basically vent about the team without being told they're wrong because "math" has turned into some kind of state of the union thing, and that was never my intention. Nor was it my...

As I posted in the thread that dare not speak its name, I thought we needed Andersen to steal one, and he did. It's up to Matthews and Marner to hold serve at home now. I wish I could include Nylander in that, but he's been invisible. Maybe this is the moment he steps up? And really guys, yes...

Casual take: The Leafs need Andersen to steal this game tonight. Like, bona fide larceny of a game. Then they head back home and Matthews finally has a breakout game, sending it to Game 7. Fingers crossed, I guess.

I miss the writing of Mirtle, Siegel, LeBrun, etc... and I definitely get the business model. I'm not paying for it though, until the Leafs are a team worth paying (even more) to follow. It's close though, it's very close.

Nice post, thanks. And between the time I posted this and now, I went back and forth on the Martin thing. I don't think he's going to find his way in, but I also don't think it'll matter much now anyway, if it ever would. But I think it's clear that the Leafs need a hard-hitting power forward...

Welcome to the thread, thanks for proving the point! Jackass.
