I get that. But the problem right now is that there's a pretty large gaping hole on defense and there's not much we can do to fill it right now due to not having any real resources available to make that kind of move now.

Can think of at least two things they can do but question is does he have the stones to do it.


Its easy to pay big with Darcy's guys, he'd have to move one of his own to make the blueline better.

We do still have some to trade, not a ton but we do. Kane could be trade bait, Ennis if he ever stays healthy, Girgensons, obviously there are draft picks as well. If you're looking for a top 2 none of these guys will get you one but a top 4 is possible. At this point I think you ride the season out and see what happens with Guhle. Potentially teams might be willing to trade players before the expansion draft to not lose a guy for nothing.

We don't though. In order to bring in 1 player that's actually going to help the defense, you'd have to package up a bunch of guys probably as well as having to add in one of our higher-end prospects. So now you've probably created another hole somewhere else.

This is one of those cases where you're trying to rob Peter to pay Paul. You may fill one hole, but you're creating another instead.

We don't have the resources to really do that right now. The cupboard doesn't have a heck of a lot in it at the moment.

Huh? Is that a sentence? English, dude....

The ironic thing is that the kid who got wasted and plowed his truck into a Tim Hortons is actually the one who's ended up being of most value to your team. I thought that was pretty clear in my original note

And good call on Lawson. He did play several games. My bad

8-6 Leafs. Disco try's to prove a point in the post game. Saying we would have won if I had parked the bus like the Dallas game.

Normal teams do that. Teams don't normally have a ton of prospects to trade or players they don't want so they get rid of without creating a hole. Trading a piece means we open up a whole, but we need to have the pieces to replace it like normal teams do. If you trade a Kane you need to have Nylander or Bailey pick up the slack. If you trade Girgensons you need Larsson to take that role. If you trade Ennis you need Baptitste to play there. Time might not be right now, due to injuries and readiness but that's how you have to do it. Have to sell high on these players because you know you have pieces to replace them.

If we're going to bring up irrelevant history to measure falice size, the Sabres have a record of 111-65-18-8 vs the Leafs. Just sayin.

And as I have said before, sure the Leafs won the cup and the Sabres never did, however the Leafs never won a thing once the NHL had more than 6 teams. So basically the Leafs last won their division in 1967.

again, leafs have not won a home game in regulation in 8 weeks


I know people north of the border already envision multiple cup battles between the oilers and leafs but right now they are just another team in the 15-30 range in the nhl


nothing special
