Mike Augello: Leafs far from beautiful in win over Kings, Hyman closer to returning

123 goals, 223 points in 228 games...but he isn’t Bergeron so he sucks.


We can’t have nice things.

Mib throws a negative title out there. We don’t miss a beat here in leafland.

If you want to beat Bergeron, you're going to have to be able to be better than Bergeron.

Or wait until he retires.

Kessel didn't win one by 22 either. They are basically the same player.

Was reading some comments last night watching the game, haha Toronto has to have the most psycho fans in the NHL.

Leafs are in a playoff spot. Tavares, Hyman, Dermott have all been injured, they've had a particularly high amount of B2B with a questionable second tender. The majority of the losses were closes games.

Imagine at any point in Leaf history being told the Leafs will have two young 22yo ppg stars, one from Toronto, yet current fans are content to run one or even both out town. Only in Toronto.

Matthews has 12 goals in 16 games +7 and people say he can't play without the 'number 1C' lol.

My hope is that they aren’t really Leafs fans. Because if they are it’s really embarrassing.

Remember when Bergeron was hit from behind and broke his neck? Randy Jones Randy Jones’d him.

Nothing wrong with Matthews and Marner.

Trade Nylander.

My hope is that they aren’t really Leafs fans. Because if they are it’s really embarrassing.

Second highest paid player in the league (or 3rd? Panarin?) puts in near-0 effort on defense most nights and is 16th in PPG.

Yes, you should be embarrassed.

I did not know the name.

It is easy to forget the injuries Bergeron had; really amazing story.

He has those numbers despite the team being a little off in October and having a bad schedule. I expect a big year from all of them.

Do you have the link for the effort stat? I can't find it...

One month in. I guess Pastrnak is better than McDavid.

Yeah, everything is beautiful. Leafs are one of the worst defensive teams in the league.

There was a time when Bozak/Kessel was top-3 scoring duo. I guess there was no problems there either.

Let's wait til the end of the year then and see where he stands.

You think he will perform up to his salary?

We'll see.
