Lol. Doesn't Tavares have a no move. Marner I don't think does.

Hayes, McLennan, and O'Neill totally ripped apart these guys and the lack of heart.

Hope Bodreau bringing in more glue and sandpaper guys.

I wanna stay positive but its getting very hard to. It was already going to be tough to make the playoffs in this division (Tampa, Florida and Boston are all better than the Leafs IMO). But they don't look like they can even compete with the top teams

Edit: Oh and Marner is awful

- PlatosRepucklic

Tampa hasnt been great either yet.

The Leafs don’t need the money allocated to Marner. I don’t know how much longer people need to watch to understand that. Tavares is staying no matter what. Better move Rielly and Marner this year.

Marner is a joke. I don't think anyone wouldn't unload him if they could but it's going to be hard to unload that contract AND get sufficient value in return

Marner is playing worse than a league min guy right now.

(frank)ing brutal

- burn

I was calling for him to be traded last season. Lol. His value is only going down the way he plays. He's invisible in the playoffs. Why would anyone pay for that?

4th line with Simmonds and Spezz he is fine but…

Ritchie been poopty, Kerfoot doing nothing. Big miney guys doong utterly nothing really.

D is just a dumpster fire overall.

Dubas needed to do something in the offseason. Not sure what he could do here now

- Roadrunner75


Oh there’s essentially nothing atm.

I find it hard to believe they could move anyone for what they’re worth currently, I don’t know, maybe move Rielly for a defensive guy and base the D around defensive play and lean on Sandin for offence? I mean who else could they move at full value?

Haha. Tampa has two cups. No one cares if they lose 10 straight. They've earned some leeway.

What have the Leafs done to earn any leeway or benefit of the doubt? I'll wait for your response.

Is it a FULL NMC? For the whole 7 years? Cuz that contract is NOT going to age well.

I would strip the C and As and tell them all...somebody earn them if they want them.

- underhill14


Yup, they can’t move him unless he gives them permission to even try

More people finally on board. I hated the contract the day it was signed. When he got an “A” I was (frank)ing nauseous. Dubas culture really, it’s on him to fix.

Tampa with back to back cups and minus Kuch? Meh. Still better than the Leafs

No chance that's happening. Why would he waive.

Just put a $100 on the leafs to win….

Great odds, and will make for a nice night.


Or

I lost a $100 and hate this team even more.

Just pointing out they will most likely turn it around.

That’s not what I said.

I would hope you know and understand that people are allowed to have a different opinion than you and share it. I’d ask that you get used to that and show them the same level of respect you would or should expect.

Posting a sarcastic remark with this isn’t being respectful nor does it lead to any type of healthy and respectful debate.

Be better than that, we both know often all that does is lead to an argument that gets out of hand. If you can’t do that then just read it, shake your head in disbelief and don’t respond.

Thanks

That roster can score 3 in the third if they get pissed off and play for pride.

Just my opinion.

Can hope. Thing is these are the points you want to rack up before teams settle in. The ones that get you ahead and in the playoff spot down the road. They are not going to make it easy on themselves here this season at all.

And thats IF they turn it around.

I thought this team was going to be a good bet last season, and even stated it multiple times. This season though, I don't think they have a chance of winning a round. The metro is a beast of a division. I could see 5 teams making it from that side of the conference. Toronto will be hard pressed to make the playoffs.

Dubas and Shanahan need to be fired. They built this tire fire.

I wonder if the blinkered fans who keep defending Marner's contract will finally admit he's way overpaid, same with Tavares. That could have been money better spent on building a well rounded team.

Vegas has been to the finals and the conference finals multiple times. Top players are injured. They've earned some benefit of the doubt.

Not the Leafs.
