a) My Richard would win that fight.

b) Not since 2020 it's not. He played great in November & December, and we needed that.

inconvenient truth.

The xGF% and xGA% numbers actually show that this team has been better in front of him this year than other years.

Put down the spread sheets and watch the goals against, one by one since Jan 1st. Takes less than a period of hockey. You can see the massive breakdowns in defensive play and garbage coverage game after game. This is clearly a case of a good goalie stuck behind a terrible defensive team with a terrible defensive coach.

Pull all the fancy stats out you want, the 47 shots they gave up to Carolina wasn't Andersen's fault.

- DrunkSkunk

This.

Yes.

One is a proven terrible back-up.

The other is a proven top 10 goalie the past 5 years.

What's the same? poop coaching and poop defensive play.

You just hit yourself in the Richard with a hammer.

Thank you for agreeing that in 2020 Andersen has played like a proven terrible backup.

You know that shots is a part of calculating sv pct and is therefore considered in this arguement already, right?

You must have some serious sore genitalia right now.

What deal did you suppose was there to bring them to the promised land?

with the supposed guns they have up front he didn't even attempt to solidify his d while still sitting in a playoff spot, let alone sell on barrie for whom the writing is on the wall. kick tires on a sheary or saad? nope. a vet or 2? nope. a vet d for a 7th? nope. help the team you made worse with all your mistakes and gambles that have not paid off and are fails. NOPE.

Cames turned our pick into skeji

Dubas is da best

When you have solid information about who was available in trade, for which Leaf, THEN you can comment. Otherwise, you are forming an opinion with zero facts.

What is this word salad you speak of?
- Fakepartofme

Dubas' post trade deadline monologue.

I'm not sure which 1st year pysch course he's teaching in his spare time... but it seemed he mixed up the talking points...

when it takes you 10-15 minutes to explain why you didn't do anything... you're probably not that confident in your position...

seemed like he was trying to convince himself.

Thank you for once again having a discussion in bad faith with zero nuance or depth to the statistics.

You know that cherry picking SV% with zero context or deeper meaning does nothing for your already weak argument right?

That first round pick hurt.

I think he had to get rid of Marleau, I just wish it didn't cost that.

I guess we have the benefit of hindsight, but I certainly would have rather seen Johnsson be the price. On the other hand, when the decision was made, was the Summer after Johnsson had a pretty great second half.

We dont really know what options there were... but yeah, it sucked.

oh

Are they right, or is a known Dubas hater being a twat again?

Still didn't learn your lesson huh?

Microscopic objects can evade a hammer, you're right.

When did the Leafs blueline get hit by injuries? Was it Nov. and Dec.? Or was is Jan. and beyond?

Should be pretty obvious.
- JohnFergusonJr

Teams are supposed to overcome injuries, not ride them as an excuse.
All players need to be held accountable for sub-par play. All of them.

- DrunkSkunk

Yup, paying for it, and getting nothing, is a far better option

And don’t hand me the it was worth it to free up the $ to pay for Marner, not right now, that (frank)er tripped over his own feet Saturday.
