Edmonton is pissing away the best player of this generation because their GM and ownership is too stupid to acquire a legit #1 goalie. He should demand a trade out of that poophole. |

I left it on, since my options were watch the game or bang my head against the wall.
I got lucky this time, picked correctly |

Every team should try to embarass the Oilers every chance they get. Ram home the point that their franchise has been negligent in securing true #1 goalie worthy of backstopping the living god of hockey.
Tampa would have won six cups in a row by now with "McShiva Destroyer of Goalies" on the roster.

Many teams havent acquired a true number 1 goalie in years, including the leafs. Not easy. |

He's beyond a sports therapist, I think he needs a hypnotist. |

True. But, rolling out a stream of Mike Smiths and Cam Talbots says a team is not serious about winning. They could at least try harder.

Well the idea of Campbell was to finally have that good enough goaltender.
They just grabbed the wrong one.
Mind you, if he just played at the level he was at in Toronto, it wouldn't look THIS bad.

Leafs arguably are the best team north of the border. They are better positioned to make a deep run than any other Canadian team. Jets have a goalie but no team in front of him. Flames haven't been relevant since Iginla. Canucks are a perpetual tire fire. Montreal is not even close to contending. Ottawa will take years to recover from Melnyk's incompetency. If McDavid had a lick of sense, he would demand a trade out.
That's my cold take and I am sticking to it. |

Neither one of them received much help. The Leafs' D and the Oilers' D were just garbage - from bad decisions and missed assignments to lost battles and poor gap control. I watched both games start to finish and there was very little good on the back-end for either. I will give the Oilers this bit: Eklholm does a ton to stabilize their D and he is out for a bit, recovering from surgery, so they have hope on the horizon.
The Leafs' D, for me, continues to be a concern. When it goes it well, it'll be great, but that is not a rugged or tough enough core to manage the harder games. Rielly - Brodie, McCabe - Klingberg, Giordano - Liljegren - they are all decent D with some merits, and all capable of being top-4 D (maybe not Klingberg - he sucks) - but where is the toughness and muscle? Who's getting the puck? Who's winning battles? Who's clearing out the front of the net? Who's tying people up? I hate it because it _feels_ like a retread of the 2019 defense that was woeful.
I hope I'm wrong. I like the potential of this forward group. |

A "good enough" goaltender works if you have a very good team in front of him.
Leafs can score (alot), but they can't afford shaky goaltending with their current defensive corps. |
