So the Leafs aren't allowed to trade pending UFAs like any other team? Or trade away their overpriced players for a package and picks and prospects like any other team? The Leafs aren't allowed to win a legitimate lottery like any other team?


Buzz off troll.

plz that kessel return was a joke your paying him to play for pitt. It's just sad really.

This is why it is so hard to talk to leafs fans. and i'm not bitter the leafs got the 1st pick it's they way they got it. One of the best franchise's in the hockey world planning to tank is just wrong in so many ways.
- Mr.FunFacts

Oh come on....one of the best franchises....you talking about the leafs who've made the playoffs once in over a decade

(frank) off, do you even watch hockey?

- BINGO!

Culture change was necessary and return was limited due to Kessel's NTC. Try again.

I wish you managed the Habs.

Bergevin has no plan. Just as good .

how would you have fixed the Leafs then?

The fans hated the direction it was going.. but we wre happy this year because at least they tried. we saw growth in Kadri and Rielly.. The Marlies look excellent.. Its exciting times for us..

would have them just over pay for every ufa and stay in mediocrity? how is that a good business model?

That is exactly what the rangers are doing and it gets them no where except one fluke appearance in the finals where they were victimized. and destroyed rather handily.

No but at least go out there and play your ass off for your city.

The message was made clear at the start of the season (summer). Pain was coming, the season ticket holders knew what was ahead.

Simple you sign UFAs and keep your mediocre players under contract, while failing to integrate your younger players in order to make the playoffs to placate fans and increase concession sales.....but then epically collapse and miss them in consecutive years.

You brought your team into this when you opened your mouth about ours..

Maybe the Habs shoulda planned a rebuild (not calling it a tank) this year.. they'd be better off for it now.

When Price's groin springs out of his jock strap into the second deck next year he'll be wishing that his team took some measures like the Shannaplan did.

Bergevin has no plan. Just as good .
- Tumbleweed

Yeah Bergevin is a goddamn mess.

A 1st, 3rd, a young depth defenseman, a 19 year old winger with top-6 potential, and a checking forward (who was traded for a 2nd).

Oh my, what an awful deal. Boo-hoo.



You are so jealous the Leafs won the lottery. Mr. AssHat

Talk about a gift that just kept giving

So trade 2 firsts and a second for a one dimensional player??

dang, shoulda thought of that.

- Mr.FunFacts

Most of our fans were dead the last time they won....man it's been 50 years...snap the (frank) out of it.

Someone brings up the "we haven't talked any hockey for ten pages" and this is what we get

You clearly did not watch the Leafs play. At all.
