really? that surprises me. on the radio he seems to laugh at anyone that judges anyone off small sample sizes.

None better at that than the big dog!

this is a huge month coming up (plus july 1)

Kessel had to go. We did not get value for him because his salary not because of his ability. Because of an anticipated rebuild of two to three years, it was believed Kessel's best years would be wasted on a non-contending team. The fact that he was a major piece from the Burke regime and he was one of the main culprits in the salute-gate deal made it more urgent to move him. There were few takers, did we get fair value? Not really - but it freed up salary and there are many good players coming including Matthews. And don't sell Matthews short - he will be the best Leaf anyone has seen for a long time. Better than Sundin/Gilmour - hard to say - I think so. The scoring that Marner did in the OHL this year was sensational. Over his junior career - he scored 1.69 points per game vs. 1.71 for McDavid. He won both MVP of playoffs and regular season. He scored more than McDavid in the playoffs, he was the top player on a championship team - unlike McDavid. Now - and I say this emphatically - Marner is not better than McDavid - but he is exceptional - and I fully expect him to be a star in the NHL on Matthews wing. Unless you remember the four cups in the sixties, you haven't seen anything like this - and I won't miss Kessel too much - there's plenty more talent on the way.

The Leafs truly are the envy of the league right now... Especially if you factor in Babs and management. Most other fans won't admit it and its hard to see because they finished dead last.. but i wouldnt trade this team for any other in the league.. Edmonton maybe because of McDavid, but still.. it would be a hard decision

seems like we need hump day to arrive now to cheer everyone up

Fixed.

Isn't it August 15th when he becomes a UFA?

No seriously, cut this poop out.

We finished last in the league.

We've played 7 playoff games in the last decade, with no series wins.

We still have a middling defence, no goalie, and a giant handful of unprovens up front.

Please refrain from even suggesting that the Leafs are truly the envy of the league right now.

Perhaps the envy of rebuilding and quickly declining teams in the league.

Correct. My bad.

My wife asked me the other day if the Leafs get the most attendance of all the teams. I told her no because other teams have more seats in their arena so they have a higher attendance. She asked me why the Leafs didn't have th most seating and I had no answer.

Why didn't they make the account 25k-30k seats a game? Any idea?

Just an idea

idea's are good my man, I will come up with something

Oh but they are..

We have a young defence.. but with some very good pieces..

Look at the two goalies in the finals.. two guys who were unheard of 2 years ago.. It wont be a problem.

(frank) the past, why you caught up in that?

Rielly, JVR, and Kadri are on excellent contracts... they are very fortunate to have that.

3 superstar prospects in the making... well, 2 if you exclude Nylander..

Fixed.

oops I reported by mistake

that'll teach you!

but yes, hump day is a good day for all

I know you wont/can't but you should do a hoax blog about the Leafs not taking Matthews.

Which team would you rather be a fan of, Minnesota or Toronto?

How about Philly or Toronto?

The Leafs have an incredibly bright future..

those are like the 3 best teams in the league..

their times are now, but will have to start rebuilds soon.. and they'd be extremely lucky to get pieces like Toronto has right now..


i never said they are the best team in the league, thats stupid..
