i agree

and barrie WILL get traded if the leafs wont make it, that's a given

i would be fine with any return at that point as we'll be looking forward...but i cant see that happening, i think we push hard and make it.

too many quality players who are hungry on this roster. and the man with the C on his chest ===nobody more hungry!

Barrie may get a pretty good return. Lots of teams look for PP help at the deadline.

Wait why are you allowed to use the "since the coach was hired" stat for the Blues but I am only allowed to use the past 6 games?

and IF IF

If they go 10-0 they will be up there with TB.

Okay now that we have our "IFS" on the table lets talk about the present.

Because the coaching stat was used as a known when referencing the blues. It's done, history.

The TDL has not happened this year Santo, therefore it is an unknown.

One more time.

IF the leafs CONTINUE to SPUTTER, the WILL NOT be in the same position the st Louis blues WERE IN on the TDL last year.

For the love of (frank) I feel like I'm talking to a complete invalid.

I am comparing the Blues and the Leafs on Jan. 27th. 2020 for the Leafs and 2019 for the Blues. That is the post you commented on.

I don't care about your "what if" scenarios. I stated that and made it clear to you.

“All the Blues needed was a goalie.” Is what people say because the Blues won.


“All the Leafs needed was a defensive Dman.” Is what people will say after the Leafs win this year.

And you do so willfully embracing the ignorance that where either team is on January 27th is irrelevant to decisions made towards the TDL with regards to pending UFAs.

And to that I say hell, if you're going to be a putz you may as well be consistent with it.

I told you I don't give a (frank) about your "what if" scenarios.

Will the Leafs sell if they go on a 10 game losing streak? Yes. Glad that is out of the way.

However I like to focus on actual stats that are true.

You say the Blues were a top team from when they fired their coach...I tell you that the Leafs are a top team since firing their coach. Instead you focus on the last 6 games because apparently that is the best way to predict results...When they have Muzzin and Rielly out.

Same.
8-1 Nashville.
You just don't get it Lucas.
Do you ACTUALLY WATCH the games?

I don't think you do.
Matthew's looks like he's going Lawn Bowling.
It would be much more impressive if he focused less on fashion and more on hockey.
He is a great talent.
He can be so much better.
Mind you.
Hi is playing with teeny tiny teammates.
Dubas is such an idiot.

Dubas' track record of drafting is franking appalling.

https://www.hockeydb.com/...aft/teams/dr00008490.html

If you set aside the Matthews pick (nobody gets credit for that) and the Marner pick (every pick in the top ten - except Strome - is a great pick), then the drafts are woefully lacking.

Since 2015, other than Matthews and Marner, there is a total of 259 NHL games played.

Dermott eats up 137 of those, and let's be honest here, he has a ceiling. And it's not on the top floor.

To be fair to Dubas, there are still developing players. Liljegren will play in the NHL. Sandin will. Robertson will.

But damn, look at the list. It's appallingly bad.

If the implication here is that that's my mentality... You should be aware that I was a huge advocate of Babcock being fired, and I was very vocal in the I told you so department when they went on a run about it.

I also never once said blow it up, my only angle in that department has been with regards to Barrie.

My position is that if the team continues to fade into the TDL as they have been the last 6 games, there's no logic in pretending they will win a cup as at that rate they might not even be a playoffs.

This immature position assuming sarcasm shtick is a bad look when people who aren't documented to be (frank)ed in the head like Santo do it.
