Your first problem is using the Burke era as any point of reference.

Would have been better off picking a player at random.

Pretty sure preseason overreaction transcends eras.

to be fair to recent years of Leaf prospects... a) they were all drafted after the 2nd round b) with Dubas drafting there was only 1 or 2 who grew after they were 18 so they ended up with a pool of 5'8" 150lb guys c) they never got near the ice during the pre-season because like Marner & Matthews wanted all the pre-season power play reps.

and its hard to stand out when you're 5'8"

I think the funny thing here is someone being triggered when someone talks positively about a leafs prospects and improving stock in their first ever game against non 15-19 year olds.

That's where I'm coming from though.

And renting a car at Pearson. Gotta be at the plant from 8-5 but everything else is my own.

I think his name was Holland, or Percy or some poop. Holy (frank) he was a hidden gem of the draft in those couple of preseason games.

Every pre season there is some kid who plays well the first couple of games that some get too excited for.
Its the fun of preseason

Check out a rangers (OHL) game.
Stick around for octoberfest
Drive out to Toronto
Depending on your age, check out the Uni campus bar

I got 3 weeks off starting Saturday..

Might head down to Minnesota if the Jays and Twins end up playing in the playoffs.

He took a pitch that could have been called ball 4. He’s cut down on chasing bad pitches and hitting loads ‘o dingers. Not sure the reason for the Vladdy hate.

The first two strikes were clearly strikes.
Bases loaded, doesn't even swing.
Hes been disappointing to watch at the plate.

.314, 5 homers and 10 RBIs in his last 10 games. Not sure what you’re expecting.

You know what? You’re right.

He’s been a ton of fun to watch at the plate this year.

You win.

Yeah he has been great recently getting the Jays back into a playoff spot

He’s definitely had an off year but he’s been better lately. Biggio used to suck. No used to be the worst SS ever. No point in locking in your view of someone and not acknowledging improvements.

Go fishing in the Grand River. Go to the market. Go skating at the Auditorium.

No, what's funny is Leaf fans overrating players like Cowan and Knies who will be playing in Italy in 5 years.
