We need a captain who’ll engage in that type of hockey.

You’re right, Gio got fed up with the lack of emotion from the rest of the team. But we have to have core players who’ll muck it up. Zero emotion from the core 4.

Exactly. When we had Bo it was the same thing.

JT has the damn C

It’s up to him to lead the way, he doesn’t need to be the best, but it’s up to him to set the team’s attitude.

Trade Willy for Heiskenen.

Just pathetic defensive play.

He’s having his best start in his career.

Still a - (minus) player

- Arctic_AARDVARK

The leafs are a minus team so I wouldn’t put much stock in that stat.

Shouldn’t have to fight after a clean hit. That gets you the instigator. I have no doubt you screen grabbed the exact timing of glove drop.

Yea you should. Your player gets crushed - you get in there and if you can you fight. Hockey.

So the old “win your faceoffs. Play smart densively, score a point a game” message isn’t working?

He's not a Leafs fan. Nor does he actually watch any games.

I agree! Leafs have lacked toughness for far too long. Everybody loves playing against Toronto in Toronto! They should hate coming here. Still gonna take a few trades to get us tougher.
- Bullot


And as much as I like JT I question him as a captain in a place like Toronto. Maybe in a smaller market he’d be fine, but that willingness to essentially do what Gio just did is missing and is necessary in Toronto

What's up with Willy's jersey being tucked in at the back? I thought doing this was illegal and required tie-downs? Has the rule been changed?

You don’t have to fight just because you wear the C.

I don’t want any of our players being paid over 3M to fight.

It’s stupidity.

Sure, but what do we stand for as a team?

Are they a team that works together to achieve a common goal?

Or are the Leafs a a collection of individual players trying to get a ton of points so they can get paid?

The NHL is a very poor ran league, who knows.

Doubt the refs know either.
