Good.

Lets hope they actually do it, instead of saying they'll do it.

Shapiro just said yes they havent finalized it, they meet next month to figure that out.
i saw someone mention the 180..but that doesnt mean much atm

I wouldnt include Chelios in that.....he simply wasnt good enough to play if i recall.

It was the outdoor game in his home town of Chicago. He played the previous 2 games and the game after taking his regular Bottom 6 shifts. Apparently, Babs vehemently argued against having him suit up at all for the game but upper mgmt forced him to dress him.

Babs, being the (frank)ing Richard he was, decided to show upper mgmt who was boss and bench him for almost the entirety of the game after only playing less than 2 mins.

At least Chelios had the last laugh: he got his son to deliver him beers while he was on the bench. 🍺

Bring back Semien and lock up another SP!

But, my question still remains valid.

The Leaf attack is superb. The offensive game produces spectacular possession numbers. Fancy stats and our own eyes tell us that the Leafs should have won that game.

If the Leafs have a significant weakness it is on defence and in the nets.

I am interested in having someone explain to me how the Leafs will transition to playoff style hockey where games are often decided by the best goaltending performance.

You can look at last night's game and say the Leafs were great on the attack. You can also say that despite a dominant performance they still lost. Is there something that needs to be fixed?

Did you just say that the leafs played weak defense on Monday where they gave up less than 20 shots? Please stop commenting about hockey immediately you clearly have no clue what you're talking about. Stop embarrassing yourself.

So far, my predictions on Campbell are looking good.

Dude is money.

Safe to say andersen is done after this year.

Which is nice. Some needed cap space for rielly.

There’s a difference between trying to be a friend and just treating players with some respect.

Hes talking out his butt anyway. Several of those guys are known to be well liked by their players.
