Isn't this what Clarkson was brought in the prevent? Didn't they sign him knowing he wasn't a 30 goal scorer but he wouldn't let the team crash the 18-wheeler again?

What.. the (frank)?
- BetterCallSaul

I think they thought he was a leader. But that starts on the ice.

Precisely because of the environment they're playing in.

How many of those 10 are Olympians if they're wearing a Leafs jersey? In this mess, maybe 2 or 3 would still merit it individually.
- Leeman4Gilmour

Don't get your point.



You think Hitch could transform the Leafs into a team with 10 Olympians?

Shoulda kept Mac over clarkson
- Fakepartofme

should have kept Komarov over Clarkson....should have just avoided that contract all together.

I'm kinda hoping for it now that you've said it lol

If it's gonna be a train wreck, might as well be a total train wreck.

And maybe Liles over Gleason?

Franson is just (frank)ing stupid... you can't even call him a hippo... they're a far more intelligent animal...

And maybe Liles over Gleason?

Why the (frank) are you talking about Olympians? Is Martin st.louis good? Do you consider Taylor hall to be good?

My favourite roster for the last 3 years.

He's more of a yam on skates.

Please enlighten me oh knowledgeable one. Start by explaining how this team with Frattin and Scrivens is better than this team with Bernier.
- 1979AD

You were chirping at the beginning of the season how good this team was when they were winning. Now their losing it's because if their two best acquisitions?
Give it up.
We're not missing frattin, and bernier is way more upside than scrivens. Although I did like scrivens

No no no.. Skates like a hippo.. Thinks like a brick

Gotcha. The team that has the most players in the nhl going to the Olympics has no elite talent....

- Iggysbff

First of all, # of players going to the Olympics is a terrible metric to use. The Leafs have boasted a large number of Oympians in past years that nobody would mistake for "elite talent".

Tellqvist has an Olympic gold, for crap sakes.

Secondly, while they do have a ton of players I'd call very good, they have no Crosbys, no Ovechkins, no Lidstroms, etc. They have very few guys who would fall into the top 30-40 in the league (maybe none at all). They have players of above average talent who have ALL ought into a system.

Anyone lucky enough to get coached by Hitchcock right now instantly looks 10x better than before.

He's saying the blues don't have any elite players.


I think that's ridiculous.

I like liles, thought Carlyle was foolish for not playing him. But the team needed better defense

so awesome theyve never won a cup!
- Jurco_28

So they suck worse than the Oilers????



Woooooooooo!!!

It's funny because it was Fraser the lone Dman back on that 3 on 1 for the 4th Canes goal...




That will go in every time...
