Good to see everyone is in the same foul mood I'm in.

Except I'm typing this from work, so I'm probably angrier than all of you.

Don't worry Leafs next home game at the Honda center ... Man I hate seeing the lower bowl all blue and white when Leafs come to town -
Ducks will be coming back from E Coaster and historically have been trash first game back - All will be well in Leaf land... Freddy will have himself game of the year....

No no. Trust me. I'm already a pro. But typically, it's just a hobby. At most, an obsession. (Garnie)

You guys ragging on Hyman do realize that he has more goals and as many points as Nylander right?

He, and the rest of the top line are not a problem here. Let's take a look at the Bozaks and JVRs of this team who are continually doing defensive fly boys instead of backchecking, or taking the body at all.

The D hasn't been great, Freddie has been sub par, but the real problem right now is the forwards who aren't playing a strong defensive game.

No problem with Hyman, just in an extra man situation like last night, I think I'd want a shooter/skill guy out there instead.

Ahhhhh...Big Buff?

Yeah....about that most underrated centre in the league....

It may be time to put the Bozak beer stein back in the cupboard for a little bit...just a couple games maybe. It may help you see the forest through the trees, so you can send good, positive and concise thoughts to Bozie in his sleep.

I'm afraid if you don't...well...the 5th line for the Leafs plays in a different rink.

Hey Wick, I have no problem calling it as I see it.

Bozak has been (frank)ing Brutal last couple games.

Like, Andersieve bad.

I know you guys want to keep Martin on the bench, but he's just so damn handsome. If the Leafs are going to lose games we might as well have some eye candy.

The Hyman hate here is hilarious (multiple points for alliteration).

He's been the least of the Leafs problems -- he's on track for 20+ goals. Has he missed some glorious chances? Yeah, sure -- but I think those chances are inflated by confirmation bias by a lot of detractors here: you guys notice when he misses more than you notice when other players are missing. Heck, he hit the cross-bar the other day on a pretty neat move -- should we be calling into question his "stone hands" over a tough break like that?

People on here questioning whether he's really a "first line" player, guess what: the Hyman-Matthews-Nylander line has been ridiculously great this year and has dominated possession. You think Matthews-Nylander are the only reason for this? Hyman is a relentless digger who opens the ice for the rest of the line. This line doesn't need more puck dangling or goal scoring talent: they need a gritty pest who the opposition has to contend with.

The only possible person on this team that I could see being a better fit is perhaps Connor Brown. But, frankly, I'd rather see him flanking soft skilled players like JVR and/or Marner.

So can we (frank)ing give the Hyman criticism a rest and concentrate on more pressing problems with the Leafs? The weak goaltending? The sub-par d-corps? The soft-as-(frank) Bozak line?
