Marner has been very good.

Zez is gonna owe me a redfin.

Willy will never be anywhere near worth 11.5M. You guys are gonna spend the next 8 years coping over this fact.

Anyways, Dangle is still annoying. But his takes are getting better.

- Arctic_AARDVARK

Marner has been decent. The point was, hes not great every game. Players arent awesome every game...but when willie has an off period or game, you're all over him.
If he gets 105 plus points, then the 11.5m will be easier to take.

Willy has been dog poop since he signed that contract.

WE ALL KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

I don’t know what you’re trying to debates here, fake..

These things are problematic to me. I care about one thing only, team success.

He uses more words, but essentially yes.

The team is too soft. It’s always been too soft. Guys like Rielly puts up with poop until he snaps. Same thing happened with Kadri, and Matthews.

Sorry man, it’s just funny to me when you all argue with everything I say, then I listen to Overdrive, or others in the media and they parrot everything I say.

You’s all prefer to live in this HB echo chamber where the Leafs are perfect, and they don’t have to change anything, and whenever something doesn’t go their way, it’s the refs fault. lol.

Leafs are massive pussies. It’s (frank)ing embarrassing.

- Arctic_AARDVARK


I am not sure at this point they can pivot to a "tough" team.
everything gets magnified and punished.

when they have pesky rat like players (Kadri, Bunting)...they just turn into penalty diff nightmares. other teams are allowed to maul them...and they cant draw penalties.

Winning is all i care about as well.
You said people are always arguing with you about "the team", i merely pointed out most argue with you over your not so great will takes.
The core 4 arent just going to care more or play tougher overnight. Its not their style and ya it may cost them a chance at a cup.
Or it may not.

But this is what Dangle talks about..

They don’t have team toughness. They did for a few games under Babs, they talked about being a “pack.” But shortly after they got Babs fired because he made them uncomfortable.

They need to be made uncomfortable. Keefe doesn’t do this. I think he’s starting to try, but he’s inexperienced and they don’t care.

It’s never too late to change this team. We just need someone who is the balls to defy Shanny. At the end of the day this is on Tannenbaum and MLSE brass. Shanny is clearly the problem, and billionaires at the top only see dollar signs. As long as they keep selling Matthews and Nylander jerseys, they won’t change.

Did I do that today?

Nylander is the epitome of a selfish hockey player. Shanny is fraud.

They played opposite games, but somehow Shanny thinks he’s worth more than Makar, Draisaitl, Kucherov etc..

The Leafs 100% deserve all the failure they get.

Babs wasnt the solution.
He was a big problem and weve seen more proof of that.
I feel keefe has taken this team as far as they can go with him as coach and i would like to see a change.
Just not sure thats gonna occur, unless the team falls out of a playoff spot

I can’t see anything changing until Shanny is gone.

He’s been Pres for 10 years. He’s been given Matthews, Marner, and Rielly.. And he’s only won 1 playoff round.

In other business would he still have a job.

Imagine if this was the NFL? Lol.

I don’t know what MLSE’s loyalty to him is.

Do you remember what the Leafs were for a decade before Shanahan?

I feel like they just don't want to go back to a team that doesn't even make the playoffs.

Two, three years ago the Leafs had an identity. They had a swagger. They weren't the most physical team in the world but they were going to dance around you and make you look silly if you tried to skate with them.

Today they aren't that. Shanny shifted the focus and direction of the team's depth acquisitions trying to graft "team toughness" onto a team instead of instilling a culture of it.
