You're not wrong. The blue koolaid runs strong in a segment of the fanbase.

What colour koolaid do the "Realists" drink?

Asking for a friend.

And that's what star power will do for you kids.

As much as some people on here want to trade half of them away, when you have that many game-breakers, good things happen.

- gravyface

Good things like scoring 2 or less goals for six straight playoff games?

Did our stars perform well tonight playing a good team on a back to back (minus their elite starting goaltender)? Sure.

Is it sustainable for our stars to do literally all the scoring every night, and masking our subpar team defence? Nuh uh.

If you don't want to hear it from me, maybe listen to the coach who says the Leafs have showed up for about half the games this season.

Trade offer :

Sergachev for Benoit and a bag of pucks.

Nice win by the Northern Blue and White.

Epic poop the bed by the Southern Blue and White.

I hated to see that. Brutal. Shades of Joe Theismann.

Having said that, the Lightning just opened up a ton of cap space right before the deadline.

I didn't see it but when I read the phrase leg bent at unnatural angle, I won't seek out the replay.

Well they won the game tonight and (checks box scores) Willy score 2 goals including the game winner? Did I read that right? Can't be that soft, weak perimeter Willy score twice and won the Leafs the game.

Side note my team won 7-2 tonight and the Refs stopped the game and called it with 5 min left as the other team was getting way too bent about losing and got stupid and tried to start fights galore. In all my time playing beer league it's the first time I've ever had refs call a game before it was over - and it was the right call. lol

- Cush29

oh man he tried for the hat trick with an open net but iced the puck instead.
2 more strides and would of been over the red line and no icing and maybe hits the net to put this game out of reach for the Stars.

I'm glad we resigned Willy, but I do believe we could've got him for less this summer.

Anyhoo. Great players cost money. Film at 11.

Definitely could have got him for less this summer, anyone who wants to be made about how much he was paid can blame that on Tre and Shanny for waiting until the season started.

Hate the game not the player in this case.

The fact people are still whining about Nylander is so incredibly laughable.

God forbid the Leafs have a guy ripping it up and who made a commitment to stay long term and be rewarded for it financially.

The nerve of that player to do those terrible things!

What a jerk!

The detractors are an indispensable part of the Willy story, they're great.

Yup, we were critiquing Tree's body of work, and outside of Benoit, it's been pretty bad, even more so if you look back at the Flames.

Not a fan of Tree so far and I'm slightly terrified of the trade deadline.
