showing to work in half the work, the other half is going back home

Lucas, buddy, old pal, brother, guy.... nice blog!

Biggest surprise for me is Nazem Kadri, he's playing the best hockey of his career and his putting up big numbers, acting as a true #2 centre for the Leafs, making it easier for the young guys to produce. Zaitsev and Marner deserve a mention as well for players exceeding expectations.

Biggest disappointment would have to be Rielly. On a team where he's obviously the most talented defenseman, and with all the energy coming from the arrival of Matthews, Marner, Nylander etc. You would have expected Rielly to take that "next step", to become the true #1 defenseman this team desperately needs. Unfortunately, he's had a very "meh" year and left alot to be desired with his inconsistent play.

Cheers!

couple things

Kadri has always been good..he is getting the results this season sure. New coach, better system and linemates help. But he has always been very good

And I dont think Rielly is a #1 or will ever be one. His D results are just too poor

Carrick is a disappointment? I'm disappointed in you Lucas. He's a rookie who plays bottom pairing minutes and does his job extremely well. You hardly ever hear his name which also means he hardly ever (frank)s up.

On the Marlies a large chunk of his points were on the PP which basically never plays.

I've been very excited about Carrick's development this year. I think we have four real legit D-men in Reilly, Zaitsev, Gardiner and Carrick.

I too hold off being too tough on Carrick given his age, however he's not a rookie by any definition.

No wonder we're all (frank)ed

Not sure about "always been VERY good" but he's a keeper that's for sure

Look, guys, we get it. Symba is a waste of our tax dollars. Let's move on.

Thanks for the input, I've always been a big Kadri supporter (I think a combo of his shooting % going up and the Leafs having more than 1 offensive line has helped his output).

Rielly has been somewhat of a disappointment I do agree.

I picked Carrick simply because I expected him to produce more, his D play has been good enough to get the job done.

hope you are doing well

Zaitsev is rookie, no protection needed

Nevermind. Njuice said the same thing.
