How do you like them rotten apples, Smelly?

Yeah, you wished you sucked like we suck.

1st time in 8 games they've scored 3

streak breakers forever

So me cheering for a win didn't help?

Holy Faq, fans hoping to lose so it guarantees that they don't draft later than 4th.
What has Leaf nation become..

Emotionally defeated realists

Announcers basically just pointed out Babcock was not trying to win this game

50% he said right? that won't be easy considering every prospect in the system got a game in this year

Yeah which makes me really wonder on JVR and Kadri and Bernier etc. Is Lou gonna go mad man with trades?! Least it should keep things really interesting through the draft an summer overall.

We're not in the wo.. er, out of the woods yet.

For Matthews on the Leafs?

Bold prediction, but he will get sheltered minutes playing behind Stamkos.
- Atomic Wedgie

IF*

And thats a big if... but if the leafs get Stamkos and Matthews they'll make the playoffs next season..

How could they not? The only question would be goaltending. But if its holding them back they'll trade for a different goalie.

We haven't mastered consistently losing yet. And our window may have closed. Team should be better next year. Maybe we get some lotto luck.

when edmonton wins the lottery you can't be all "i told you so" since they would've picked 1st even if they won the cup.

I've already convinced myself they will win, so I definitely won't be doing that.

1 player is good for what, 4-5 points max? is there a hockey equivalent of WAR? those 2 dont get them in by themselves. close though.

He's probably not coaching all out right now, that's for sure lol

good, good

OV with 2 goals in the first. 1 away from 50!

im assuming no stamkos or matthews.

Finally you say something right.

Matthews is a roll of the dice, but Stamkos, at this point if I had to bet I believe Stamkos is coming to the Leafs. If I had to bet right now, we'll see.

So Dubois looks pretty good... If the Leafs fall to 4-5

Got an edge to go with the skill. . Someone mentioned he is what people think crouse was last year.

Sleeper 4th Pick
- senstroll

Wouldn't mind him at all. Not saying more then the top 3 but he is pretty good. One thing I did notice was his +40 and he seems to play a song two way game.

It was all part of the plan. Lou hired me at the Deadline.

watching commercials is hard now

Theres no definitive answer to that..

How many pts would JVR have helped get?

Marner? Hyman and Sosh are better than Holland Grabner..

Rielly and Gards are chipping in lots too.. gotta think Zaitsev would also.. so its not just 2 new players.. Nylander is good for 50-60pts next season..

GO LEAFS GO
