Thats your comparison? Two meh's against two game breakers. Try harder.

Whine more.

Why?
- AdamFrench

Cause they could add two Andersens and have Marner rested with half man strength instead or the public girl strength he is parading about now.

Why do you think they make the playoffs without the 4th leading scorer in the NHL other than the contempt of the division around them?
- AdamFrench

I think they make the playoffs because everyone else steps up and covers his ice time and production gets spaced out over a few guys. You’re also adding players equivalent to 10+ million in cap space.

Why did Tampa do it?

They’re the defending Stanley cup champion and not losing anyone of significance. Gaining their captain back who played 1 game in the playoffs last year who is still a good player.

It’s a risk/reward and they took the risk to try ice the same team this playoffs with their captain added too.

Edit: I also think they had this in their back pocket. They probably knew kucherov needed surgery, but had they had takers on Johnson then he would’ve had surgery earlier. No takers they delayed surgery and had him ready to go for playoffs.

I think it’s that simple.

You knows its going to be the canes or Oilers

Why cant it be Montreal.

Campbell starting. That's good news. Hopefully he responds well to a back to back. This would be his first ?

Wrong, according to them they were miraculously recovered for the first game of the playoffs, not 5 or 10 games before just that perfect day one.

Cause they have Price. Andersen will want to be a starter. Plus they'll probably want to resign Allen to 5x4.5

The miracle is that a Toronto player didn't get a suspension.



See, now that's whining.

Not what I am reading from most of your fanbase. The Leafs are only up because of their dirty play, refs against the Habs, and bad luck.

It is like most of your fanbase is utterly clueless. I saw someone complaining about the Sandin hit on Lehkonen last night

Keefe won’t say who’s coming out.

I hate the league in general with regards to playoff refereeing.

Chiarot and Weber getting passes to mug our best player. It is not like this doesn't happen all throughout the playoffs, but WTF is that? It isn't bodychecking, or taking the body or close checking or hard work. It is doing something against the rules in the hopes that you can get the other guy off the ice, or even better, injure him.
- Aetherial

Tito, get this guy a truck of tissues.

Fack
Foligno already injured.


Would be nice to have hall.

Lol

Would the Leafs have made the playoffs doing the same thing? Losing a 120 point Hart winning player all year just to "Cheat?" Lose Marner all year "just" for the playoffs?
- AdamFrench

It's not really relevant what the supporting cast of another team is - Tampa cheated big time. They were over $98 million cap hit at the TDL. Kucherov's surgery - did not require a 6 month rehab, exact same surgeries for other players were 2-3 months recovery. He sat out waiting for the season to end - ready to play. It was a massive cheat! To add insult to injury, Stamkos volunteered to be injured so they could trade for Savard at the TDL. It doesn't matter who else cheated, and who could have done what Tampa did. By previous precedent - NJ, Vancouver etc cap circumvention should result in losing draft picks and or a giant fine and or a cap penalty. Have other teams cheated and got away with it? Absolutely - including the Leafs, doesn't mean this blatant cheat should be ignored.

Oh they cheated big time.

Technically, they didnt
The league allowed it.

I'll revert back to my Toronto suspension post.

Do you really think the leafs lose 18pts without Marner?

Why not grow some and tell them there rather than here ?
- Sir Edward Longsha

Uh, I did.

Here is a clue for your stupid ass, It was not on these boards.

Here is another observation, I don't troll under multiple alts like some people. I am not hiding. People can come here if they want to hear my negative opinions on the Habs. I keep that kind of stuff to a minimum on the Habs boards though.

I don't expect you to understand why, even though the reason is pretty obvious.
