Cherry might be a bunch sandpaper-y but some of what he's saying is true.

Andersen would win a Vezina with a decent D in front of him.

Our D sucks. Boy wonder Dubas should have done a little at the deadline just in case of injury which is...now...making our D suck even worse. A good GM should anticipate things.

Some of the forwards are floating. Lazy and not showing up on time.

When I played....nothing serious so don't start with that poop....kids came with heart and didn't need a coach to pump sunshine up their arse, they (frank)ing played. Some kids were lazy C unts and took a bit of a verbal beating to get going.

I want a team full of the former.

I just remember when Mike Brown jumped on the ice and we had a shiite team. He did two things from working his ass off and throwing a few hits:

1. Got the team back in it because he showed serious heart
2. Got the crowd to forget how poop the team was playing and us fans at least had that at the end of the game.

There is nothing I hate more when watching this team than seeing them play without heart or balls. Fuuuuccccking hate it. One hit makes me feel soooo much better win or lose. Heart, win or lose, makes me feel better.

Not saying this team doesn't, just saying maybe it's all the same kind, not the physical kind....sometimes that is needed.

Dubas did add Muzzin. He should’ve expected 4 injuries to the defence.

Clearly they gotta play some pump up music before games. I suggest some Kelly Clarkson.

I think the leafs have a couple lol

It's not on the coaching staff to make players play hard.

They cant move their legs for them

there's a lot of 'satisfied' players out there - long contracts with good money... they tend to need someone to fire them up once in a while

He could have anticipated an injury.. He obvs knew Gards was dealing with some discomfort.

He knew Gardiner had back issues before the deadline, he also knew Rosen and Borgman were injured, he put his trust in Holl and Marincin, now we see the results of that misguided thinking.

The Caps won because of Wilson, and not because Kuznetsov has over 30 points.

Yeah I think he missed on that one. Could have got Lovejoy, Carrick or Mcquaid if need be. Plenty of depth options for cheap.

It does more than that.

I think the plan is to use Rosen or Borgman if they need a replacement. But they’re hurt.

the Leafs have a bigger window than just this season.

Boston and TB they have to go through and if they added 5 more D they are still probably going to lose.

he took a shot adding Muzzin and Tavares... planning for 2 of your top 4 D to be out at the same time is a little much and nit picking for the sake of it just to hate on the GM ...you clearly are not a fan of

You are welcome to this opinion, I guess. But don't except much support when you feel like needlessly sharing it.
- UsernameUnknown


I'm gonna be honest with you. I really don't (frank)ing care what anyone else thinks on this. I really, really don't.

I just want a garbage player off this team.

Meh, not even a full year as an NHL GM. He’ll learn, always expect injuries. Could’ve added a Beaulieu or a Del Zotto for a late pick.

in fans heads it sure does

but I have not seen one person correlate hits to wins. I dont expect you to agree.
I dont care if players throw hits, but I also dont care if they dont all the time

At least he isn’t going full Max, and wanting Dubas fired because of it.
