You can always watch nylander float around on youtube, no?
Or that one clip you posted of him making a hit.

This is insane. You are a drama queen. The Leafs are a good team. But they aren't there yet. They will be. Dubas has watched this team and learned their pros and cons and will adjust accordingly.

I think there is zero reason to believe this, sorry.

Who is reporting this?

Did Marner tweet it out? Revenge tweeting?

meh, it's going to happen over and over and over again. After 5 years, when Matthews doesn't re-sign, we can look forward to the next rebuild.
- Aetherial



Matthews will agree to re-sign an extension the day Limpcock is fried.

Fatboy said that in the intermission commentary too... that they could change the narrative and then Kypreos suggested Freddie try and get a delay of game by knocking the net off the moorings...
- kaptaan

Kypreos was right, Freddie did exactly that and no call, so maybe you should drop this narrative. It doesn't look good on you.

It just feels like Babcock never felt any urgency. I know he likes his style of play but it hasnt produced results in 10 playoff attempts. It cannot always be the guys on the ice.

He was too busy laughing at all his millions he gets.

Like everyone else, I regret Kadri's cross check, it was a huge mistake. But, I am surprised so many are so quick to want to offer him up in a trade. I really thought the Leafs missed his jam in Boston's last two wins. I believe Kadri would have made a difference had he been able to take a few shifts against the Bruins bottom six.

Na, Dubas is going smaller and smaller and faster and smaller. It’s teh new thing in the NHL for your bottom lines. As small and wussy like as possible.

MOAR GRIT guys may be on to something.

Had 0 outcome of this series. 0.

Coaching. Ice time and special teams, specifically, were the biggest issues. Not hitting enough was not a problem.

We won't win franking thing until we get some toughness/meanness in the lineup. Period.
To all the clowns that busted balls when people were preaching that we needed toughness and grit, hows that "skill and finesse" game look now ?
I hope you cry yourself to sleep tonight knowing we got out hacked, slashed, bullied, crosschecked, body checked, & mentally intimidated by Boston AGAIN !
You know who you are.

gardiner gone
maybe some team wants to take a chance on nylander
kadri to dallas or nashville

surely there will be some room.

need a backup goalie.
need linemates for matthews.
johnsson probably gone as well.

the d wasnt the issue for leafs.
hainsey played great - he'll be back next season on third pair.

kadri is an idiot... you wont get much for a guy who puts himself first when the playoffs are on the line... two seasons straight...

Babs basically throwing Andersen under the bus. 'I thought we played well - they shot the puck in the net'

Petan could have saved the series. Is he the only deadline addition that didn't actually play a playoff game for his team? What a joke Dubas is. Although I do like his grandpa in the Soo.

No mention of Kadri in the post-mortem.

He's the single biggest reason.

- Atomic Wedgie


His name's come up...

in trade proposals. He'll go for a D, Nylander will get a full season at centre. Babs gets 2 new assistants and 1 more kick at it. Freddy gets a new backup and another chance to show he can keep that 1 extra goal out of the net to keep us in it.

Plus Gardiner's gone for good. He'll get paid to play in Arizona or something so good riddance.
