Agreed. No need for a trade unless someone else goes down. This is the best Leaf team I've seen.

Its finally a good time to be a TML fan

Some love for Keefe for the way hes got the team playing. At start of year, Shanny challenged them to be more consistent and to compete harder. They’ve done that, significantly improved their defensive play and have second best goal differential in league. They’ve done with Freddie being good and improving but still with more room to go.

Real test if they can hold this. They’ve shown sone scary minutes in last two games where it looked like they were reverting back to form but they held.

Also, Habs played like CLB in postseason.by clogging up centre ice and being hard on forecheck. Leafs fought threw it and didn’t get frustrated.

Let's temper our enthusiasm with at least one clear, sober thought: the Leafs are playing in a (frank)ing terrible division.

Who (frank)ing cares. It gets us to semifinals. Anything can happen from there and when was the last playoff round win?

Is it terrible, or are the Leafs just that good?

Honestly when I look at all the divisions I see a big divide between the top two teams in each and the rest of the pack. I think the Leafs are full value for their record right now, same as the other top contenders

They are a deeply flawed and beatable team. Really that they won against a virtually complete squadron like the Habs is a once in a season occurrence, at most.

Also Canadian champs wouldn’t be so bad as a start of semis.

Like the hockey talk thus far no matter opinion and way it should be on a HOCKEY forum, if one D we could get yes without money/or cap id say ekblad but please don't sleep on rasmus andersson from CGY. Very under rated and makes smart plays. could really push the puck from the zone and keep it in the zone. throwing iti out there as we need another FWD mangi or aim higher if the flames are desperate and Doobie can wear a mask during trades like others have

I love this Canadian division one-off. My buddy hates all the rematches, but I love it. The potential playoff matchups are so awesome. Thanks, Covid!

I don't think there's been enough appreciation of how magically delicious it was when Justin Holl beat $10 Million man Price clean with an unscreened point shot yesterday.

price was so calm

I dont think MTL and TOR are that close.

Id take WPG over MTL in a series.

The standings are going to change, teams will heat up/cool off..

2004 vs Ottawa? Was that the Nieuwendyk game winner? Roenick OT winner knocked them out in the next round IIRC.

Habs losing to Edmonton, good for the leafs . With a win against the Habs it could open up a nice gap

Habs went from steamrolling everyone to an offensive slump.

Actually it started with the Sens games.

Which might be worse.
