Some normalcy will be nice. Rona numbers are falling worldwide. This thing has been awful and regular HNIC will be a treat. - Zezel
I don't know how much of an issue it was early on in the season, but I think the team handled it well..
I think this season will come down to Murray and Samsonov. If they can handle the pressure that comes with playing in Toronto, the Leafs are going to be good this year.
The team just needs average goaltending to be successful..
No more goalies posting save percentages below .900 please.

I don't think it was an issue on the ice, but some nights really sucked in the stands.

For weeknight games, the building was 80%-90%.

that's understandable, a lot of people were afraid of Covid.. I think many still are, but now that it's being treated like the flu here in Ontario.. So, ticket prices will only increase on the secondary market.

That why I didn't care for going places. Went to one game, the first I'd gone to in 6ish years, and that was enough for me.
I'm not gonna risk getting Covid even more now that my dad is in the middle of chemo. So unlikely I'll be going to any games anytime soon.

I think Samsonov will have a really good year.
Murray....hoping he has at least a decent year.
But only how they play in the playoffs matter, so we'll see.

I felt the same way, I didn't want to risk getting Covid either. My in-laws are in their 80's.. I still worry about them.
Sorry to hear about your dad, I hope he'll be back to full health soon
