Ottawa discovered this reality as well.
- TheTaoOfSemenko

Yes, Ottawa had a bunch of guys trying to impress last year. This year they no longer need to impress as most are signed to some nice dough.

Franson is a guy I'd dump to save cap money. I don't like his play at all.
- RogerRoeper

and then the Leafs would have zero right handed shots

So, what's the solution, then?

Play a system that players can handle, but doesn't get you anywhere?

Switching the coach should be a last resort in hockey. It's a short term fix at best. The only time I remember a coaching change having a real impact was when the Blues hired Hitchcock.

But, if this team can't play Carlyle hockey, what makes us believe they can play Hitchcock's style?

It's up to the coach to adapt playing systems to personnel is all Im saying. The Leafs have shown they can win but something seems to be short circuiting right now. Slump? Maybe. Overall hershey squirt? Maybe. Another month will tell a more complete picture, and panic moves could deep six the whole season for good. Afraid that Leafs fans dont have much choice than to just ride it out for now.

That would be a nice way to lose an asset for nothing

Predictions for the game tonight.

Put it in writing.

I say 4-1 Sharks.

Our local Jr. A team is ranked in the top 10 in the country. Prolly give the Leafs all they can handle at this time..

I'm afraid you're right about riding it out. We've just got to hope something clicks and gets us back to last year's game.

Nonis really needs to start pushing hard for a dman right now, though. We've heard rumors all over the place about it. He needs to put something together and pull the trigger already.

I would pound Jennifer Jones.

that ass kicking in Montreal will wake them up IMO.
4-3 SJ in OT

It really was. And his value is much higher than what they paid for him.

We can be lazy and look @ Scrivens' great numbers in L.A but he is simply not being tested like Bernier is.
- RogerRoeper

and lets point out when he was, he did an okay to a not that good of a job

Leafs down another center yet again (not that Kadri was even noticed lately) and Lupul is on his annual IR stint.

If the defense doesn't play a perfect game, we're toast.

4-1 SJ sounds about right. Leafs get booed off home ice.
