coaching changes can make a difference

Or, since the Leafs are one of the best teams in the league since the New Year, sometimes coaching continuity can make a difference too.

Leafs prospect report #232

"Of great interest to scouts is Richard Throckmorton, a towering over-ager from Newfoundland. Clocking in at an astonishing 7-feet and 7-inches, he first started out as a zamboni driver before he was recruited by the legendary Bobby Umpteen to play for the Yellowknife Seal-Smashers. One night during a conference quarter-final game, the starting goalie fell ill due to a plate of bad caribou meat consumed prior to the game. Throckmorton filled in between the pipes and did admirably. He has since assumed the starter job and was undefeated in his first 16 starts on the way to the championship. Of note, his reach is so long that his poke checks reach all the way out past the hash marks.

Scouts have noted that his strength is obviously his freakish size, and that his skating and positioning could use some improvement. One possible knock against him is his known addiction to huffing model airplane glue and picking up undocumented immigrant women for kinky sex. If coaches can polish off his rough edges, he projects to be an NHL goalie."

Yeah my bad sorry, I know hockeydb is like that. I should have checked the heights first to see where you got the info from. I responded too quickly, so yup, it was me who was the dummy there lol

🤮

The shamrock looks like a poopty cartoon or sticker. I much prefer the previous white ones but my favorite St Pats jerseys are the green ones from the Sundin / Roberts / Tucker era.

I can’t figure out why they didn’t go to green based jerseys - I think more people who have a white one already would buy a new green one than another white one that looks a lot like the old white ones but it is what it is.

Sick of him already. The first hit on Bastian was dirty. The second one on Boosh was charging. This was just (frank)ing brutal - and likely happens because the DoPS has left him alone for his bullpoop antics thus far - he's feeling untouchable.

If Parros comes back - again - with "It'S nOt hIs fAuLt hE's tAlL!" garbage, it means that the league intends to undo the work its done towards getting rid of enforcers.

I enjoyed him for a minute. Thought he was going to be a fun player.

Now he's just a talentless goon and as much as I love tough hockey, it needs to be tough talented hockey not what this kid is doing.

Feels like he came right out of the late 90's-early 2000's when guys were "doing anything to make it," left right and centre. Feels like we haven't had one of those guys in the league since like...2013?

He’ll have some cool stories to tell his kids and grandchildren…if he’ll be able to remember who they are.

Green jersey, white regular Leaf logo with green “St. Pats” in it with white numbers and names would have looked better.

We actually have prospects? You can tell it's a Dubas draft. Midgets and forgettable picks. If we're lucky, one might come out of that class.....maybe Niemela in another 3 years. He'll be another Sandin or Liljegren and be shipped out after a looksee at the NHL level.

Easton Cowan is currently on a 32-game point streak. Fraser Minton is doing well too. Is that enough?

100 %.

I read somewhere the Leafs are opposed to the Leaf logo with any green because it looks too “pot like” 🙄.

Your suggestion would have not caused that issue.

There are so many concept jerseys for St Pats that would have been better but I guess the marketing folks at MLSE decided what they went with was the best option.

They could have just reversed the last white St Pats jersey colours and it would have looked better than the new one IMO.
