Good place for Lupul or Clarkson

Say want you want, but there is no denying that, the Leafs go on long winning streaks at the wrong time.. (Re- 2008, 2009, 2012)
- PatC80

dude you are talking like 6 and 7 years ago. 2012 they finished 5th last overall. This team is much different and faces worse obstacles than in any of last 4 years (i already mentioned them). This team is afraid of it's own shadow right now. Why does that change? if there was no bounce back the game after carlyle (blown out vs wash at home) or Carolina at home (after a disaster road trip), it's obvious they have quit. Waffles and jerseys for everyone!

I'm not saying mcdavid..but top 5 or 6 pick is LIKELY, not just possible.

Weird how many brain tumor stories I've heard recently. Best friends fiancé just diagnosed, then a week later my Mom's friend get's diagnosed.
When the later went to the local pharmacy to pick up meds, the pharmacists told her she is the 4th person in the last month with the exact same condition... scary.

I know, we've heard everyday since last week

14 teams don't make the playoffs...you picked an easy team to bet on.

Yes, 6 and 7 years ago.. When they had a shot at Stamkos or Tavares... In 2011/ 2012, at the end of the year they won 3 of their last 4 to move ahead of Montreal

Who did the Habs get and who did we get? I'm on my cell so it's a pain to Google or I'd do it myself.

Man, I hope your right. I really want us to obtain another first round pick and at least one second rounder to get the one we traded away. I don't want guys like Richards, etc. We need to make ourselves weaker now for the draft and obtain YOUNG players and draft choices in return for the future.

2012 was the Galchenyuk/Rielly draft

- Garnie

it wasn't just miss the playoffs...it was ...well you know the rest. And no one seemed to agree so how easy was it?

But point is, i don't see a run this year. The team is completely listless. Coach was already fired which usually causes an upswing..add that to depleting bodies (trades) and it doesn't get better. Schedule gets ugly in Feb/March too.

sorry drunk again...yes Galy and Rielly

did you see them going 10-1-1?

I don't think they go on a big run, but you know Leaf fans luck right?

ps. okposo out 6-8 weeks

- Garnie

didn't see the 10-1-1 run you are right..but true story..i bet $100 they miss the playoffs start of the year...when they were 8-0 into that run or something close to it i offered to double the bet. My buddy obviously went for it....he paid me yesterday

Thanks everybody for opening your big mouth and ruining the O'Reilly for Phaneuf trade.
