I may bless this board with my presence this evening. If so, i expect to be addressed with the proper level of respect, awe, and adoration.

Thank you.

Great! If we win I will be here to tell you how bad your team is and how amazing our team is!

Nash is 27,Carter is 27, Stastny is 26. all young and all better than Gardiner. and Lupul and Kessel have these points from a run and gun offense that isn't working.
what are they going to get when a real coach takes over?
you can't believe either of them are stars. good hockey players, yes
Kessel might have shot but not without a star center
- bobbyisno1

that remains to be seen about kessel and lupul but i cant say i'm right and you're wrong

my point was i dont think nash, carter or stastny does much of anything to help this team.. the problem isnt scoring imo.. there are enough guys who can put the puck in the net

the problem is keeping it out.. the leafs have a negative goal differential, which is a rather difficult feat when you are 7th in scoring overall.

like i said.. just my opinion.

as with anything, it can be spun to be negative or positive.. generally it all depends on the individual's point of view and most indivduals dont recognize this.

one person can say "kudos to wilson for defending his player" while another can say "the leafs are too accepting failure"

Here's some perpective for you
LEafs haven't BEEN to the finals since 67.
Leafs haven't BEEN to the playoffs in 8 years.
Connolly was suppose to our number center B option (gawd that makes me laugh) and he's getting paid 5 million bucks.....oh and he has 26pts...on pace for 37.

All hail WayneZ!!!!!!

Im going to tell on you.

I agree, we have an actual farm system in place and it seems like guys want to be here now because things are being done in a semi-sane way for a change.

The packages being floated for Nash are bonkers for any team, but especially for a developing club like the Leafs. Sure, if I had a contending team whose window was closing, I might go all-in for Nash and accept the hangover if it didn't work. That's kind of what the Leafs did during the Sundin/Quinn years, and I think that was justified because they were legit contenders.

But now, I'm reading an impact roster player, two high value prospects and a pick, maybe a first, for Nash? If two firsts and a second for a very young Kessel was supposedly the worst transaction in all of human history, isn't this kind of package for a 28 year old Nash who eats up 8 mil in cap space equally bad if not worse?

I think Burke realizes this is not the point at which to blow our brains out over one guy, all it'll do is make us the Toronto Blue Jackets.

Oh yeah, GO LEAFS GO
- Zezel

EXACTLY!!!! Burke has done a great job building up assets. When he came here, the cupboard is bare. So everything Burkey has been building for the last 4 years, he's not going to blow everything out of the water to acquire a 28 year old over-rated, over-payed player in Nash.
