Okposo hitting 20 is better than AM hitting 60

Solid road period. Nothing special, but we certainly were the better team. In fact, I'd say our worst 2 minutes was the 1st PP. 2 good PKs and a nice snipe from Okposo.

One of the more defensive-minded periods of hockey I've seen us play.

We still gave up way too many odd man rushes. Toronto looks good on the counter but they have a hard time getting up ice at other times.

Kinda funny that this board was debating the value of smaller defenseman yesterday and then Bryson gets bull rushed tonight.

Literally the worst coach in NHL history? Ok there bud.

He was demoted the fourth line after starting in Top 6 cause his play dictated it. The coach wasn’t just going to pop him up to the first line if he didn’t deserve it.

28,37,24 leading up to 40? That’s why you think 9m per is a good sign? Yikes. You should pop into NHL.com and check out what players with those stat line make…it’s not 9M

“Easily still 20 goals…” - shoulda woulda coulda

Again! Literallyno one could score? So no goals scored? How about it was a bad team made worse by a bad coach. Blame games aren’t the way to go bud.

Bad teams set bad records. Teams filled with bad contracts create an even worse situation. Can’t win with ‘em - nobody will take ‘em.

Inconsistent players don’t get 9M.
You’re classless.

Pretty big bonuses on Brink's deal, for a #34 pick. Wonder if they offered Johnson anything close.

I mean Buffalo went and beat a bunch of playoff teams at the beginning of March, it’s almost like you have to get up to play anybody in this league no matter what their record is ?

Yeah good point. He’s got his work cut out for him if he’s gonna be a starter for us in the future

Is that why Ryan Johnson is hesitant to sign? He’s afraid to compete against the likes of Jacob Bryson?

Toronto media keeps pumping Matthews scoring 50 goals in 50 games


Pretty sure its the first 50 games not any 50 games

Just came in to say I think you guys have a nice mix of young guys, big monsters, some savvy vets. Looking forward to a playoff series in the not too distant future.

Tuch has a bigger impact on whether the team wins or not.

Heck Cozens has a bigger impact on whether the team wins or not.

Skinner is making more than the rest of our top 6 combined.

If you don’t see the issue with that, I’m not sure what to tell you.

In regards to your comment about the lightning a few pages back, can you tell me which one of those super stars you think is overpaid ?

Point, Kucherov, Stamkos, or Hedman ?

There is a difference between paying up for elite talent, and paying Skinner Ferrari money when he’s a Honda Accord

This will become the rivalry it used to be. Maybe a few less seats for Leafs fans next year

I'm not trying to bash okposo, as he's one of my favorites.

Last 4 games = not good
