keep it simple

leafs have been built on the magical mushroom theory of possession analytics

it is a joke

you have a very good team that is able yo possess the puc

they have great possession numbers

but when the other team has the puck, even for a short period time, the leafs cannot defend

Does anybody really think Marner would have made a difference in the 4 games he's been out?

Isn't he paid over 10M because he can/could make a difference?

You do this often. Make a claim, then have someone else do the work you’re not willing to do.

On top of that you toss in the Don Cherry firing (yes it’s a thing)
- Lucas.Neilson


You people actually think that the Don Cherry firing is affecting how the TML are playing on the ice?

Well, the Leafs' problem the last few games is that they are all unwilling to play physical and give two poops.

So no, Marner isn't going to cure that.

I'm baffled by people who think that firing Babs is the answer.

You really think that getting rid of a taskmaster is going to make this team play better?

Why not have no coach at all, and just let them play shinny?

Unless your next sentence is "Hire Torts!", I don't understand why anyone would say "Fire Babcock!"

Didn’t Tkchuck have like 80 points last year? If people were saying no, they were doing it from Calgary’s perspective.

That'll make the team play better, also yes I think a different system might also work.

Let the record show that, I, senstroll, think Nylander for Tkachuk is an overpayment.

According to the average TML fan, all of their players suck, but should bring a massive haul back in trade.

babcock took a team that shouldn't have made the playoffs in year 2 and probably year 3 of his contract and not only did; but broke the franchise record for regular season points.

but it's babcock's fault that we are dressing 2 4th lines and have had echl level backup goaltending.
