Well, they've gotta have something to cheer about... Saturday was basically their Stanley cup final
- lumlums

When you think about it, the Leafs have already been in several Stanley Cup finals despite the regular season not even being finished!

We were just in the Ottawa Stanley Cup Final, earlier in the year, we got to take part in the Islanders' Stanley Cup Final when Tavares came home, and it's possible we'll get to take part in Montreal's Stanley Cup Final in the last game of the season when we hopefully get to finish off their last hope for the playoffs (if they remain in the running until then. I hope they do, so we can watch the Leafs destroy their final bit of hope).

Oh yeah, that was probably the thread where I agreed with Tanner and faced the wrath of half the Isles fan base.

Nevermind. It was this blog, where he also mentioned the Isles being propped up by above average and unsustainable goaltending.

This is just Mike trying to take media focus off the players themselves and putting it on himself.
- BINGO!

Uh no. He called out the depth Players and the GM.

Doesn't bode well going forward.

I agree that the goalies have played well above their heads this season.

I just got a phone notification that Marincin is out vs Preds (Preds will be pissed). Who's in? Or 5 D?

i dont disagree with babcock here although the situation is exacerbated by the fact that the depth options themselves got injured (rosen, gauthier, liljegren etc.) but I haven't really liked dubas as a gm so far.

the muzzin trade was good but everything else he has done has been pretty poor. Getting tavares was great but he was willing to accept less money and higher taxes to play in toronto so I think any competent GM could have gotten that deal done. tavares only considered 5 teams with SJ literally offering to make him the highest paid player in the history of the sport and tavares said no thanks, i probably could have closed that deal.

dubas' handling of the trio has been terrible. these guys should have been extended a long time prior. in the end each of them will cost toronto a lot more in cap space than if dubas got it done in the offseason. i get that it might have been hard to extend all 3, but he should have gotten at least 1 or 2 extended.

the worst part is when he keeps guaranteeing that those 3 will be extended. like wtf, they're not free agents, no one ever thought they were going anywhere. but by him saying that, it gave those players more leverage and you've seen 2 agents use that to get more money out of the leafs while the 3rd will definitely try as well.

i havent been very impressed by dubas so far.

Turns out it was actually a different blog where he mentioned their team being propped up by unsustainable goaltending. He may actually get vindicated on this topic.

I showed the GAA and SV% for both of their goalies over their careers compared to this year and brought up a few other points.

I hope so. We really need someone to become healthy again. Two of our regulars out and then our top two choices for callups. Just poop luck really.
Unfortunately I don't know if Oz or Holl are much better than Marincin at this point.

Glad they found that little girl from the Amber Alert and that she's safe.

It's a good phrase. I like saying it. Unfortunately, I can't say "mate" after it because it sounds stupid when I say it with my Canadian accent.

Oh yeah? Good news. I was worried it'd turn out to be like the last one. Glad they're ok.
