Not every Trump supporter is a racist. However, everyone who still supports Trump now has decided that racism is not a deal-breaker. As long as their 401k looks good, they get conservative judge appointments and deregulation, then they are willing to look the other way on any criminal or immoral/unethical behavior he engages in.

The KKK endorsed Trump. Now, his supporters will say "So what, a man can't control who endorses him!" - and that proves the point. No, Trump (or any politician) cannot control who decides to endorse him, but the endorsing party does. A group endorses the candidate who most closely shares their values and agenda. That is literally what an endorsement is.

If the KKK is backing the same horse you are, then maybe you need to rethink which horse you are betting on.

I completely agree, 100%.

MLSEL is a communist organization without principles.

The question is: are you?

Will you demonstrate your morality by turning your back on the Leafs, or are you just another hypocrite sheep who complains on the internet but does nothing, allowing the forces of evil to win?

Are you a man of your word or not?

Your move, Max.

We will all be holding your feet to the fire on this one.

I would think the third line would turn out as Johnson - Kerfoot - Kapanen.

If they can't figure their sh!t out, then they need to go. That's a lot of money going towards a third line that apparently is useless.

- Leafs43


3rd line never really got a chance to get it going, I think Kap started on a different line and AJ was hurt twice...wasn’t he?

To be perfectly honest, I have been somewhat uncomfortable with the level of vitriol directed at people who say "All Lives Matter."

I don't say it.

I think it looks stupid.

There have been great analogies on the internet, such as "Save the Rainforest" does not mean "Burn All Other Forests Down!"

But if someone wants to say "All Lives Matter" - surely our society can tolerate that without painting them as racists?

- Atomic Wedgie


I don't want to egg on the debate but the issue at the center of this is always how people feel about affirmative action.

"All" white people were terrified (angry) by this 50 years ago ...and 40 ..and 20 ...but now many more seem to understand the nature of it and why it's important.

Again I'm not getting into the debate but if you have strong feelings for or against the ideas and policies for affirmative action then you'll be strongly on one side of the BLM vs. ALM debate.

18 year old Auston Matthews starting the season on a line with two other rookies.... And scoring 4 goals?

Talk about flicking a rookie to the wolves and it resulting in completely illogical success...

Ya, sounds like earliest he's back is mid-August and I have to think after a blown knee he's not jumping right back into 100%.

I think it's Engvall on that 3rd line ...or maybe Mikheyev if Robertson steals a spot in the Top6.

Johnsson is out until second round minimum, likely later than that.

I think it's till after the second round.

Who gets the starting 6 spots on the Leaf blueline August 2?

I guess Ceci, Sandin and Dermott are battling for 2 spots?

Or maybe 7 D and sit the Goat?
