new season imo no team is a lock.

I personally think the Leafs are a lock for playoffs, but I can see why others don't. But I think Tampa has gotta be a lock for literally everyone, though.

yeah, the leafs missing the playoffs with that kind of roster would definitely be a big fail. then again that would mean not losing in the 1st round, so it might not be that much of a fail after all loll...

seriously though I think they'd perhaps perform better in the playoffs if they struggled a bit during the regular season and then peaked at the right moment to garner enough wins to make it to the post-season. that way maybe the expectations on the team and the pressure to not choke again for the millionth time would be slightly lowered, a little underdog vibe could be psychologically beneficial for them.


also, (frank) TB.

The one Dubas move I hate is that pick he utterly wasted on the bust known as Sandin.

Most of dubas trades havent been good.
But the muzzin and campbells ones were.
Heck, i still like the kadri trade.

Mehtreal doesn't impress me despite their fluke job in the playoffs.

The Leafs losing in the first round six times in a row is not a bet I like.

Im sure you said the same about the 4th and 5th times.
Just keep recycling.

A goal is a goal. That's very profound. By the same token, couldn't you say fish is fish? I don't think so.

Agreed on the Kadri trade. I'll die on that hill and, coincidentally, actually got into an argument about it with my brother-in-law yesterday.

He considers it horrible and the worst move Dubas has ever made.

Nietzsche might be a 40 goal scorer if he can ever get out of his own head.

You’re thinking of Sinatra “Do be, do be, do.”

A top 4 d with salary retained and a quality 3rd line center for a 2nd line center.
Great deal.

Kadri made the deal look even more necessary when he actually got suspended in the playoffs again. I didn't like the deal but he seriously can't stop getting suspended

I agree. Also it gave them cap flexibility moving forward.
