They were off most of the night, move on to Ottawa and who cares about last night.

Maybe my goggles were tight but I thought they looked dominant for the first 30-40 minutes. Not so much in that they were creating much (outside of 34) but more just owning the neutral zone.

Then came the mandatory 'prevent defence' in the 3rd.

Another 15cm of snow this morning ( after 15 cm yesterday) and it’s supposed to continue until tomorrow night 😩

Exactly. Thought in the third they'd crank it up a notch. Just no fuel in the legs last night. It happens to all of the good teams.

As well, really like the defensive style we've adapted to this year. FINALLY!!

Plus, the players seem to enjoy it as well.

Bogosian cant be used as an exposed player because he doesn't have a contract for the next year.

So by that logic, Hyman is protected too.

No.

I will dwell on it and obsess for the next 31 hours.

Dubas needs to make significant moves.

Put guys on waivers.

Bench people.

Get a new anthem singer.

Time to panic.

We were supposed to go snowshoeing at noon, but my daughter just informed me she needs another 30 minutes “because something really big is happening right now in my book.”

Sometimes being a parent is a good job.

Bennett career renewal strategy

Step 1. Ask for trade - done
Step 2. Wait for Leaf fans to declare you a legitimate top 6 forward - done
Step 3. Wait for Dave Nonis to return as Leaf GM

Just like no one is suggesting we trade Nylander for a borderline 4th defenseman.

Typical HB debating, take an idea or comment and expand it into something ridiculous to support your argument against it.

Thornton poised to return.

"Who are you" guy looks like might get in on the 4th line.

He's trying hard but easily replaced. Simmonds not so much.

I said it last night, I don't think he's doing anything to hurt (making maistakes, giveaways bad penalties ect) but he's also not contributing either. He's just there.

They showed a clip of him sitting on the bench a few games back.. Was looking both ways at the rest of the gang. Just like they were strangers on the street. Laughable.

It will be difficult to make a meaningful trade without unloading salary and IMO the extras on the team are limited - Kerfoot and Giraffe. Not much coming back for those. I would think Leafs are in a holding pattern until the TDL and they can add then.
