Yup. They kept a coach that is admittedly clueless to what happened last year or how to fix it. They got RC players last year and will continue the same pattern this offseason. They are going to do away with kadri and gardiner for more bollands and clarksons. They will continue to play a face puncher despite it being a useless endevor. They will refuse to play youngsters in favor of older less skilled vets.

That's just stunning that he still admits he's puzzled by the season.

That's the problem I have with these older coaches. They do a horrible job of bringing the kids along.

There's a few that do wonders with them, Hitchcock for example, but RC has no trust in the kids. Has favourites that just aren't too good out there. Much like Quinn did.

Holland played well when given a chance, but rc refused to play him.... And it cost us a 2nd round pick for his stupidity.

Hopefully all the Leaf inadaquencies & stupidity will land us McDavid. People on here keep saying the Leafs are not bad enough to finish last. Remember, the Leafs went from 22nd overall to 8th in just a short span of 14 games. When this team is bad they are an 18 wheeler with no brakes going off a cliff. If a Leaf collapse starts earlier next season they would be in contention for 30th.

That really bothered me. They flushed a second rounder down the toilet for nothing.

Bodes well for the future.


"We had the same personnel as last year where we were 2nd, we were mind boggled why the pk was so bad this year"


The leafs better hire some damn good assistants becuase the head coach doesn't have a clue.

Bernier better be injured next season or be really bad, because they dropped that much once he wasn't playing. A .923 save % will get you a lot of wins.

He also kept comparing the 48 games schedule like that was the real deal, not the 82 game one.

Ya the Holland.Raymond/Lupul line was on fire. That line even smoked the Hawks on HNIC this season. Stupid move giving up that 2nd round pick.

They won't be bad enough. They'll be bad next year, but not bad enough to reap the rewards of a future elite franchise player to. Build around.

Not for nothing, so that holland can play 4mins a game with goons.

Phaneuf for Babcock

Goons who can't hockey no less. That being said, we'll see how he does tonight. He looked real bad a few games down the stretch for the Marlies. No interest, missed plays, slow - maybe he was hurting.

Malkin just fist (frank)ed the Rangers D.

I am just praying and hoping the Leafs play Reimer next year. I also hope Bernier takes a year to recover from his injury, if we don't stink out the joint next year and get McDavid this organization is just dumber and dumber and dumber.

If Bernier recovers and we play him, we won't get McDavid.

That's a Marsha Brady esq. post there skipper.

But you are right on failing the season with Reimer.

Dear Dozzer and other Nash Nut Suckers,

The Rangers are playing pretty well right now. You know who isn't? It's the same heartless turd. He sucks in the playoffs and always has.

Thank you.
