I don't think I'd do Holl. That's a bad gamble. Kid played what two decent NHL games?


Edit: Leivo for Komagod is fine by me, as is Moore for Pleks.

Kid? I think he's 25 or 26.

Back at the trade deadline there were a handful of people suggesting we trade JVR for defence help, I was one of them. We mostly got ridiculed by all the so called experts here on HB. We have given up 12 goals in 2 games, you think maybe better defence would help?

I’m being dead serious asking this. I know the top line has so many points, but have the other lines surprised you at all? I heard so much about the Bs being a one line team and despite the points they’ve put up they’re still playing very wel.

Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
Marleau - Marner - Brown
Johnson - Bozak - Kapanen
Martin - Moore - Leivo

Rielly - Hainsey
Dermott - Polak
Borgman - Zaitsev

Andersen
McElhinney

sit JVR and Gardiner, play Marner at Center.
- MaximusAurelius

Lol
Ya play people in positions they havent all year.
The leafs arent sitting a 35 goal scorer
Gonna have to hate on someone else

If the goaltending sucks, better defense means nothing.

Been suggesting Tanev for 2 years now.

Polak played 18 minutes and was a plus 1 (LOL) pretty sure you got the wrong guy.

Still tho.. lmfao

I put in bold all the reasons why you won't win. It's very similar to a Canucks line up.

And still only ever played two games in the Bigs. Another reason why I don't like the thought. The only Marlie D that should make the jump is Borgman. Maybe if we get stomped next game Lillygreeeen for game four, just for poops and giggles.

I don't think it's the other lines that are winning it for you. But yeah the depth is solid. Nash has been dangerous he was a big addition really made it more of a three line team in my opinion.

Oh but the playoff experience...

Tanev wouldn’t help much on IR
- Steven_Seagull

He would probably be healthier in a different organization. It's the training staff and trainers in Van. Also the lack of sunlight.

The bold may as well highlight your ignorance.

THat is exactly the reason I thought we were going to win this series. Our PP was hot.

Now, nothing...
- Hockey_Reverend

Not a good plan in the playoffs.

HORRIBLE plan against the Bruins. We are talking YEARS of watching them get away with just about everything.

If the Leafs are going to respond like that, they might as well just concede.

No not really.
Pretty much one great line and the rest are meh.
Its just that the leafs are playing like such garbage and getting outcoached....they look like an ohl team.
Onto game 3.
Lets hope the leafs show up.

No not really. They’re pretty mediocre but good grinders. It’s been a one line show for the most part.

Babs outcoached.......again.

And an awesomely timed too many men....$50M and he can't count.

We should have grabbed Cody Franson

Yes, and JVR playing like he’s 4’6” 85 pounds doesn’t help us at all. “Playoff experience” is why most wanted to keep him. What an experience the young guys are having!!

The problem is you aren't going to defence help for JVR at the deadline - future assets yes - but there aren't many teams who were in a playoff position willing to give up D. He is an UFA so teams that would want him who are outside of the playoffs wouldn't give up assets for him.

I wanted JVR, Bozak and Komarov traded for assets that would help the Leafs win in the future.
Also, this poop is embarrassing.
