I'm more interested in how Nylander, Gauthier and Rielly play, win or lose, doesn't matter, it's not in our control.

I guess, beating on a dead horse I suppose.

There is no logical explanation a Leaf fan can give as to why it would be better for the Leafs to win tonight's game and obviously there is a logical explanation why a Leaf fan would cheer for a loss tonight.

But, you are right....at this point, who cares. Not everyone is logical and reasonable! LOL

P.S. Leafref - that last line was a joke!

I think we all agree the sooner the tank argument is not applicable to the Leafs, the better. It would be nice.

I do think if certain things go right the Leafs could be one of the teams that climbs up the standings next year, so maybe it gets more fun next year.

I explained it multiple times, in different ways. You refused to even bother listening to them.



I won't be disappointed with a win, or a loss. If the Leafs win, I'll be cheering for an Oilers win.

there's a whole generation of fans that have only seen one playoff series involving the leafs

what a series that was too


- daeth


Yeah.. Wtf.. Same experience with the Jays.. Talking to someone in their 20s who never saw the Jays win or make the playoff until last year.. Now I'm sad

just look at the jays last year. leafs as a contender would be 3x as crazy.
- daeth


Leafs on a deep playoff run again would be insane. Cherry said it best, the ratings would go wacko.

Jays, Raps, Marlies and even TFC are all doing very well...just need the Leafs to join the fun and suddenly TOs sports teams have turned it around nicely.

Yeah I know. I know it's impossible to write off goalies this early but I don't see him turning into much. Still hope he plays well though.

I only ban obvious trolling, disrupting the thread or insults. I never ban for people disagreeing with me, I think all regulars here know that.

not at the cost of a draft spot and higher % of winning the lottery. That is the point.

winning tonight is so irrelevant when it comes to development it's not even funny. guys like nylander wont remember this game, they'll remember the ahl playoffs.

Leafs are playing like they had a time in Manhattan last night especially in the last half of the period.


With Panarin all but guaranteeing his 1.75 million dollar bonus you'd have to think trading for Jared Cowen's cap bonus is being seriously considered.

Unlike another ref on here that loves to ban for disagreeing with him!

Look, I am a huge Leaf fan, have been for probably too long. End of the day, a Leaf loss tonight benefits this team far more than a Leaf win. So, yeah, I am rooting a loss because I want this team to be in a better situation moving forward.

Also, almost every Leaf hater is hoping for a Leaf win tonight....there is a reason for that!!

I want to see them play at BMO, that'll be a great venue for football, it was great for soccer. Outdoor hockey going to kick ass there also. I don't know how the Rock are doing either. The Leafs baseball team is up and down.

And fans thinking that last = Matthews are delusional.


IMO theres not enough to divide Tkachuk, Nylander, Juolevi etc to worry. If we pick out the top 3, 4 or 5 doesn't really matter...
