Actually if are goaltending didn't disappear from Nov. To Feb. we would probably be right on your asses. Basically left 8 to 10pts of the board cause Hutton sucked for 3 months.
- Buff36


Hutton always sucked. Trade for Georgiev. For a non leaf team his value is probably a 3rd

And they've won just as many rounds as the Leafs in their 8 year rebuild.

You're no closer to the cup than the Sabres. Good luck with Boston.

- ThundernLightning



The Sabres might make the playoffs again one day. Just keep your head up and think positivity, champ.

Leafs put in piss poor efforts, don't expect calls when the Leafs aren't working hard enough to force other teams into penalties.
- JohnFergusonJr



Penalties are penalties. The rule book doesn't state that you don't have to call penalties against s team if (you think) they're not working hard.


And working hard like when kapanen chased down a loose puck and got held and interfered with?

So if your players played better you would not been higher in the standings? Yeah same with every other team in the league too.

Ffs I remember using those lines when we were 25th every year.

Based on the roster on paper the Leafs have they deserve to have more penalties called for than against

That’s not how it works.

Do we have the cap to bring back Marleau and recoup the first?

That's your fault for letting Lehner go. Sabres have 2 back-up goalies. Not going to go anywhere with two half ass goalies. Even Carolina, same problem. No matter how well they play, the goalies will always let them down eventually.

Same story for the leafs.

Campbell has as many pts in 4 games and the rest of the leafs backups do in 4months.

Nice, Leafs get past Boston to the 2nd round vs Tampa! Not sure it'll happen but appreciate the optimism.

Ugh, such a basic troll job, even Matthews and Eichel themselves are more than tired of the comparisons. They're both great players, the success of one doesn't diminish the success of the other. I guess Sabres fans have moved on to Eichel vs Matthews since the original Eichel vs McDavid has become laughable at best ...

I’ve stopped making excuses for this team. Most nights they are just garbage.

I can’t tell you the last time I got angry watching a Sabres game because they lost.

You always have and always will complain about the referees if the Leafs lose. It's your MO.

Reality is, Leafs played like poop tonight. That's why they lost. Leafs can't control the referees. They can control their effort. Andersen kept it 2-1 for a long, long time. Leafs couldn't tie it and quit when things got tough.

Leafs are soft team (so they say) and a highly skilled speed team


Soft teams don't take penalties, and speedy skilled teams draw penalties. You do the math.

Leafs didnt deserve to win but (frank) me the reffing was a complete pukefest. Even the Buffalo announcers were talking about the missed calls and how the Leaf fans in the building are pissed. Pure garbage....

Not when their effort level is 0.
