You are wrong about this.

It is pretty obvious, and the NHL has made it obvious that they have a 12.5% chance of winning.

the league is a joke and the leafs are a joke, there are no words that can describe how poorly both are run. they deserve each other.
- bobbyisno1

Its actually really bad for the league the way this play in round went.

Losing Crosby, McDavid, and Matthews is very bad for the NHL. Also, no Toronto fans watching is no good for them when they trying to recoup money from the losses they are experiencing.

At least they got the Canadiens fans in, but tough for ratings still

Nope.
Fack the remaining canadian teams.
Would have cheered for the oilers.

- Fakepartofme

I probably won't be watching any hockey until at least late September. The NHL definitively took a hit from the Leafs being eliminated...They are lucky the Habs made it through.

Not even worth watching the lottery. 12.5 % blows...

Leafs won't win it.


Gotta get a real top-pairing D with Rielly.

Your prediction of the Leafs winning the cup was a little off in the end.

I could make fun of you, but I just hope you might learn from this.

The Habs making it is good for the NHL.

The Leafs and Oilers missing out is pretty bad...They lost a poop ton of viewers.

Exactly, to my count the Leafs would have much better argument there

Perennial rocket richard candidate and 2 #1 centres
a 1d that has actually been nominated for the Norris before

I am if the right deal comes along...But that is an if.

Doughty, OEL, and maybe Ekblad are the only top pairing D I see being even the slightest bit available.

He's the same guy who said he would trade Eichel, Dahlin and a pick for Seth Jones. Hard to take him seriously after that.

I am at peace with the loss

Can you imagine if we actually won and were not able to have the largest parade in the history of sport?

Yep, that and in the US not watching players like McDavid, Crosby, and Matthews who they actually tune into to watch.

It did not go well at all. They probably would have liked to see the NYR, EDM, TOR all get in for ratings.

Honestly the only teams that deserve the 1st overall pick is Minny and maybe NY.

No way id trade Marner for any of those players. First two are getting old quick, and Ekblad has been bad.

It would have to be a young stud D
