Feels weird to not immediately get defensive when I hear "most dysfunctional team in pro sports".

Islanders 2nd place is well earned as well.

So 2 bad games in a row and the Leafs are the most disfunctional team in pro sports. If they won both those games by the same score and I as a Leafs fan proclaimed them the best team in hockey what would you say to me?

It isn't two games.
It isn't 20 games.
It isn't 2 seasons

It is almost 5 decades of ineptitude with only the slightest glimmer of hope here and there along the way... which was invariably snuffed out in short order.

That is why the management response today was laughable.

my problem is they haven't rebuilt properly. just tank it for a few seasons. start new. trade everyone outside of rielly, gardiner, kadri.

I'm not discounting the play, or lack thereof, I am as frustrated as everyone else here. Too often we Leafs fans get accused of jumping the gun and proclaiming our greatness after a couple games. Last week at this time we were what? 5-1-1 in our last 7 with a big ole beating put on the Bruins. Then we played a good game against Pittsburgh.

Sure changes need to be made, but to be labelled as the most dysfunctional pro sports team is a bit heavy.

I'm not sure what's worse, Eklunds horrendous editing skills, or the fact that some Leafs fans feel the need to deflect and redirect their anger at Eklund after an embarassing blow out at the hands of Nashville.

I guess the Mod decided to delete my original post but apparently it wasn't worth actually deleting the ones that were quoted.

So I'm not sure who's more sensitive, Ek, or the Leafs fan who's moderating this thread... and guessing is out of the question...

What do you get for a roster with 80% crap players?

I just saw Dion on TV. He face looks really thin and skinny, like someone who is sick with an illness. Has he lost weight? Is he healthy?

It's nothing wrong with the players IMO. Other then Clarkson and Phaneuf being grossly overpaid they have a good bunch of guys. They need to get rid of Reimer also. The guy is probably one of the worst goalies in the league. All these rumors of him going to Winnipeg or Edmonton is joke seeing that Scrivens, Fasth and Pavalec are all in the same league as Reimer. Get rid of Reimer somehow maybe for a 4th rounder. What really needs to be changed is the coaching staff. Laughs should have jumped on Laviolette or Trotz when they had the chance. Only real candidate out there right now is Bylsma.

Fire the coach and take the "C" away from Phaneuf. Not sure what kind of idiot would make him a captain. Oh right...

Bylsma.....Good Luck

Didn't Brian Burke LOVE Reimer? - All that "We're building from the net out with James Riemer" BS.... Pretty sure he had a hard on for Carter Ashton once too, I remember a Press Conference where he must have mentioned him like 10 times when talking about the rebuild

Maybe trade Reimer and Ashton to Calgary - Rebuild on the FLY!

I just watched an interview on sportsnet with nonis where under his name, his title read "Maple Leafs Senior president of hockey operations".....I thought he was the GM. Did something change?

I'm surprised the Oilers haven't won the Cup yet.

The Leafs should seriously consider trading Phat Kessel (highest bidder) and Princess Phaneuf (to Edmonton) for a haul.
