Now I’d like to see the percentage of that 0.0004% of people that smoke and/or take birth control. - Santo_44
When you have kids these days, they actually give you odds of your kid being born with down's syndrome.
Both my kids had something like 1 chance out of 75000.
When you hear something like that, you're like, yeah ok, so virtually no chance. Great.
But when people hear 1 person out of 100 000 had a blood clot with a vaccine, somehow this becomes a problem.
People are weird. |

Andersen isn't playing so now we turn on Rielly? Can we just not? Please? Leafs cannot have Doughty in his prime, Vasilevsky in net, Hedman, Matthews, and every other top 3 player in the league. We sometimes have to go with what we got. Rielly is a top guy on pretty much any team in the league. |

Yes, they will instantly relegate all the other teams to B-league status. - Aetherial
I honestly think these 12 teams will end op losing, unless another 10-12 additional teams from other countries will join them (PSG, Marseille, Lyon from France; Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich from Germany; Ajax from Netherlands, Anderlecht from Belgium; Benfica and Porto from Portugal, Galatasaray from Turkey and maybe one or two more..).
In that case, these 24 teams will just play in their Superleague - and not in the national competition.
If they cannot make that happen, they might become pariah's on a national level (in the eyes of all fans, including their own!)- UEFA and FIFA might block their players from participating in the World Cup and Euro Cup, and will have difficulties maintaining the best players.
(for a lot of Tottenham fans, Tottenham vs Inter is less interesting than Tottenham vs Everton, etc.) |

When a man’s an empty kettle
He should be on his mettle
And yet I’m torn apart
Just because I’m presuming
I could be kind of human
If I only had a heart
All that cultural cos play must be so hard to keep up when all you really want is a hug

What is your opinion?
I was talking to a friend today who said something that has been in the back of my mind and was wondering what all your thoughts were...
It seems like every year we start strong. BUT when all the other teams start to tighten up and get ramped up for the playoffs we seem to fall off....? It has happened the last several years. Is it a physicality thing? Lack of defensive awareness or structure?
Also, if we lose again in the playoffs, I believe they should move on from Rielly. Guy cant defend OR QB our PP.. (runs and hides)... - Hockey_Reverend
☝🏿
it’s always been a lack of physicality and defensive awareness
you can have all of the skill in the world and win the president’s trophy but if you don’t have some grown men on the team to put up for the teenyboppers and defend the zone, you’re not winning sh!t🤦♂️
i guarantee you freddy, glassthews, melander, marner and reilly have become tired of getting run and then seeing their teammates skate around with the stick across their knees🤦🏿♂️
these are age old concepts that are forgotten by most coaches and gms until they’re getting throttled in the playoffs 🤦♂️

The issue I have, is him being on the PP1, he's clearly not suited to be there. I am not sure I agree with your analysis, but I dont hate him at all.

Lol we are not allowed to critique a player?
He makes MANY bone headed mistakes. He is not a true stud. We will pay him $$$$$ and regret it. Is he a top d-man? Sure. Is he a #1 guy? Not in my opinion.
And please Rielly, stop throwing your impotent wrist shot at the net... and missing... |

I agree. I dont hate him. He has been a good soldier for us. Just makes some mistakes he shouldn’t at this point in his career. And he needs to stop with the wristers from the point going high and wide... lol |

I don't think it's a critique when we essentially want to run him out of town. No player ever seems good enough for leaf fans. Reilly is what he is at this point. Who are we going to replace him with right now?
I've said previously is it's talk of Ekholm coming in and trading Rielly then sure we can do something but to just trade him now while the window is open is not a smart move. No we can't rely on Sandin or Liljegren to step in to make up for it just yet.
Winning teams didn't just throw out their all star d-man because he makes mistakes.

No, we cant throw him out nor do I suggest going full Larry Murphy on him! Lol. But if we lose again in the playoffs we might want to make a hard decision and try to pull off a trade... |
