I love the Leaf's fans.. they are the Cubs of Hockey but they think their the Yankees. You guys have not won a damn thing since there was 6 teams in the league. I remember hearing how Incredible Phanuef was when he was your captain. Your only joy is trying to belittle other teams b/c your team always fails. Good luck with your incredible team. I am sure they will DESTROY EVERYONE!! .. We'll chat next summer. - niteislander
Still waiting on that list of 5 or 6 players plus the top Defenceman and Goalie that JT had over the past 9 years
Remember to name the players and the year that he had them, and they all had to be there at the same time
Go.... |

This is usually the only time you dopes laugh. You laugh all the time how much better the leafs are then everyone else. THEIR PROSPECTS ARE INCREDIBLE!! ..
then they hit the ice. EVERY ..... friggin ... year. - niteislander
Easy there big guy. Nothing wrong with being proud of your team. Also, Leaf fans aren't the only ones that over hype players or situations ya know (i.e. this entire thread) but we are definitely passionate.
Also a 49 win 105 point season is really good btw. Oh and our core that we drafted and put talent around *cough cough* has an average age of 21. Oh and we have a legit goalie. Oh and we have had the benefit of good leadership the last 5 years.....so yeah....let's have a talk in the next few years about our overhypeness. |

You are on our thread... "Big guy" trolling as usual. I have never made one comment in a Toronto thread talking about Isles prospects. You guys love to talk about how wonderful your team is EVERY SINGLE Year. You have won nothing!! nada, zip, zilch... but you keep chirping on the Isles Threads. You have your all-star team according to you.. let's see how it works out. |

Listen I read the article and please stop. Tavares left we need to get over it and move on. I was happy while he was here but I am fine with him going to the leafs. That’s what he wanted from day one. I agree he should have something earlier but I guess he was being mr nice guy. I hope the leafs enjoy what he can bring. Just don’t make him the captain trust me you will regret it. |

Well I mean, you guys are tearing apart one of our players and unlike your amazing fan base of Super Awesome Puck Thingy people we actually take time to understand the game and our players. So when I see a bunch of whiners complaining about losing their best player who apparently "sucked anyway" I feel the need to defend him.
You are 100% correct about us bragging about our prospects. Because for the first time in 50 years we actually have a legit pipeline of talent and I will absolutely continue to brag until we win the Cup...then I will brag some more. You think its bad now....just wait! |

Now an off tangent question...
ARE any of those prospects thanks to Mark Hunter? Or are they before his time?

I'm asking a TOR fan on perspective. |

Is it too much to expect some honesty? I believe everyone is entitled to that. I have no problem John leaving for his home but let the organization know so they can plan accordingly. I think all Leaf's fan would expect as much from their star players. |

Thanks! Listen I was upset when he left at first I think anyone would be but at the end of the day he did what was right for himself and family and I can’t get pissed at him for that.
The thing with us islander fans is that we have sucked for a long time. We know this we don’t need other people reminding us of that point, I will say that I am excited to see what will happen with this team. It’s a new beginning and you never know what will happen. |

Yes and the Leafs sucked for a long time too. We have turned it around and I know that it chaps peoples butts that we did but when the NYI's turn this around (and they will under LL) you guys will be just as excited as we are. |

Maybe the Leafs can start their own league. Only allow 5 other teams so you can win a championship again. |

I'm still trying to figure who this "great player" is that we lost. Last I checked Barzal is still here.
Just remember this guy was 2nd in scoring on a team you guys all crap on. And you can call this sour grapes but the boy has his flaws. You better win all your games in regulation because when he takes one of his patented 2 minute shifts in OT, you're gonna lose. If it gets to the shootout, get ready for him to skate in slow motion so he can make 40 moves and bury the puck into the goalies chest. And get ready for feast or famine with the points, 7 in 3 games one week for a 1st star of the week, scoreless in the other week. Boom, point a game.
So why did I personally want him back you ask? Cause we needed a 2nd line center and shutting you leaf fans up is worth 11 million in cap space.
But in the end you all will learn what the rest of North America already knows. Wearing that leaf doesn't make a player better than he is. In 5 years it'll be business as usual up there. You'll buy out the last 3 years of his contract and stink like you always do. Maybe then you'll all realize that your location is what makes your team relevant, and it's arrogance is what keeps it from any real success. |
