I would love it if he started to put up points. It increases his trade value.

If Marner gets traded its because the Leafs have a horrible season and head into an offseason where there is no guarantee the next year is any better.

So yeah, enough with the Marner trade talk 5 games in.

Ritchie has been terrible. No sugar coating it.

But Zach Hyman has 5 goals fwiw.

Oh, and Andersen has 3 wins.

Thank God Dubas had the foresight, and impeccable vision to move on from those lousy players, and get absolutely nothing for them.

- Tanooki


Because everyone here surely wanted Andersen back this year for more than a million. Pretty much everyone wanted him gone completely no matter what. Doesnt matter his wins

Patience boys, Matthews had some good chance and couldn’t find the back to the net, not Marners fault.

Marner didn’t make Matthews give it away for the goal tonight.

They’ll get it together, we’re not going to cry “trade Marner” every night are we?

It's simple.

Matthews should be captain. At the end of the day Matthews would take this team to the Cup, not JT. He's a (frank)ing mook. Bland. Boring. Quiet leader bullpoop ain't cutting it.

Marner or JT should be traded. I prefer JT but I'm fine with Marner too.

Fix the D and G.

Grab a couple more no quit wingers who want to work for their money, not I "gots mines" types. Those types will go the (frank) to work.

Then this team would be unstoppable.

Too many chefs in the kitchen...meaning too much "elite" talent with "elite" egos.

PP1 doesn't work because of this exact problem. Put a few bangers on PP1 and a bit of talent on PP2. A perfect microcosm of this teams issues is staring you all in face with the power play woes.

Time for Sheldon to shuffle the lines and spread out the talent..

Auston Matthews - William Nylander - Jason Spezza
John Tavares - Michael Bunting - Ondrej Kase
David Kampf - Alexander Kerfoot- Mitch Marner
Pierre Engvall - Wayne Simmonds - Nick Ritchie

Jumble it up for a couple of games see what happens..Give everyone a kick in the ass.

Leafs need Ben Chariot to stabilize the D, or the floats go back in storage. Just sayin.
Reilly, Marner for Chariot, Caulfield, Primeau, Poehling, Weber's contract a 3rd in 23, 2nd in 24. Sound good ? You wish.

I believe all the problems with this squad have been caused by the pandemic and the resulting flat cap. However, if Dubas and Shanahan can’t turn the fortunes of this franchise around by 2050, I think changes in management may be required.
Honestly, I think it’s total bs that the league imposed this salary cap thing just on the Leafs and not all the other teams.

I know.

It's been 5 games. We lost by a goal with our 3rd string goalie in net who had a predictably bad game. Relax everybody.

I would like to see Kurtis Gabriel in this lineup on L4 RW. Some emotion wouldn't be bad for this team.

A got a idea- Hire Geoff Ward.. he has in a single offseason turned the absolute worst PP in the league into a dangerous one with the same basic guys.

Coaching matters.

And on the broadcast last night the guys were going on and on about how the Sharks have gotten decent not great decent goaltending and it's has resulted in a quick 4-0 start.

Also to me it looks as though Leafs are very susceptible to speedy wings for the counter... The D looks slow.

I saw an interesting stat; hyman has more goals than matthews, wilster, Jt and marner combined so far this season.
Obviously that wont last but its kind of funny.

Let's not kid ourselves... any one of us that played or got the matchups that people do when they play with McJesus or Drai is guaranteed to get points...

I think McJesus is on pace for over 200 and I for one wouldn't bet against that.

Lol
You think matthews wouldnt be a quiet leader lol. He doesnt seem like the "rah, rah" type.
Matthews hasnt led the team to crap, being captain wouldnt magically change that. He doesnt need a C to "lead".
Its 5 games in people, relax.

If it makes the team better….I would be open to trading anyone🤷

Also, funny how we all agreed Kenny Holland had one of the worst off seasons ever, and they are 5-0 😆

Terry is just coming into his own... He after Z / Jamie and McTavish is the only one I really don't want to part with.

Gibson 20% retained / Raks / Manson and Steel & 2nd- for Willy / Kerfoot, Mrazek -

I think that money lines up may even give you some cap breathing room. Then if not resigned you have 7 mil in cap space from Manson and Raks walking to sign Reilly.
