K....so they're flaunting that they're arguably the best team in the NHL without their Hart winning 120 point player...we would all HATE that.

If my team does it, its within the rules... so deal with it

If another team does it, its cheating and not fair...and I dont understand why the League lets them get away with it

There you go. If Yzerman's team were a playoff contender and he was up against the Cap, he'd be doing exactly the same thing.

Pretty much flaunting their cap circumvention.

Tell me resting Stamkos to make sure Kucherov got into game shape was not part of the plan all along.

They will both be miraculously rested and ready for the playoffs.

The thing that frightens me the most is that I thought Campbell looked a lot like Andersen, even when was winning. He got away with it though.

Now, he looks like Andersen and the exact same goals go in... too deep in net, slides out of position, pucks goes right through him.

Gotta be fair. Andersen looked like absolute poop and cost them 5 or 6 games. Campbell looks just as bad.

Yes, I still see the Leafs defense making mistakes, but most nights the other team makes more.

Our goaltending needs to be better and the PP units need to actually put in some effort or we won't be out of the first round, again.

- Aetherial


Both Detroit and Chicago won cups with mediocre goaltending. The goal that bothered me the most last night was the 4th goal in the third. Marner basically eating poison to avoid a hit. Move towards the opposing net for (frank) sakes. Skating back into your own zone, back passes from your own blueline are a dreadful.

This week, Leafs do it..

Yes. This is why Pridham is paid well (I assume). Chicago has 26mil on LTIR.

In the last month - 14 games

Leafs record is 9-3-2 (117 point pace)

Jets 10-5-1 (107)
Oilers 7-2-2 (119)
Habs 5-5-2 (82)

This is with a Power play that has been by far the worst in the NHL in that stretch.

Goals 1-3
The next worse is Philly at 7-5

the Leafs have 1 goal and the Xgf is 7.59 (call it 8). How much if a diff would that 7 goals make?
The Jets have 13 goals on 10.6 xgf

they have to get the PP figured out

- senstroll


0-3 last 3

yeah, it is definitely his fault.

Nothing to do with mobility index barely going down at all in high risk areas and people absolutely ignoring the lockdown during easter.

It's all Doug Ford's fault.


You ever notice how, as soon as he closes something down, people yell and scream and then when things go crazy, people yell and scream because he didn't close down stuff fast enough.

1) This is happening world wide
2) The biggest contributing factor is people's unwillingness to follow guidelines, particulary the 18-20 year olds who didn't give a poop before, but now that THEY are getting sick, they are crying for reallocation of vaccines to their area... so they can go out and party some more, because it is all just so unfair.

If Canada’s population was 330,000,000, do you think we’d being seeing more instances of gun violence?

Yes.
But nothing like the us at all.

the bill of rights is SUPPOSED to be absolute at every level of our gubment
the entire US Constitution is SUPPOSED to lay out what our federal gubment is allowed to do and not do

“well regulated” is referring to the militia literally. There was no standing army at that time so it means just that

the words “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed” mean just that

Absolutely true.

Sure there would be more. More people = more incidents, but we don't have their ridiculous culture and laws around gun control.

I do like it when we complain about other teams finding creative, greasy moves to Richard the cap. As if Robidas island is a term used to describe his time in Dallas...

I don’t think that’s true. Do you have a link?
