Around the League - 2022-23 Season Edition

Avalanche are f***ing useless. But end of the day this is the Leafs own fault for consistently losing to teams they should have no trouble beating.

Avalanche are f***ing useless. But end of the day this is the Leafs own fault for consistently losing to teams they should have no trouble beating.

Also the fallout from Leafs hitching their wagon to Matt Murray as their #1 goalie, expecting him to carry the load in net.

Leafs 3rd and 4th goalies have already lost 8 of their 11 starts, including losing to the bottom of the standings.

Its not really fair fight because Boston with Linus Ullmark and TB with Andrei Vasilevskiy have All-Star reliable #1 starters.

Leafs are fourtunate Sammy is holding up his end of the bargain keeping this a 3 horse race in the Atlantic.

There goes home ice advantage, thanks Keefe! Also, top 6 teams are all in the East. What a f***ing joke.

Just looked at the standings. Goal differential is insane:

Atlantic +95
Metro +47
Central -51
Pathetic -91

At what point did the Leafs hitch their wagon to Murray expecting him to carry the load in net? That was never the plan, and the workload even when healthy shows as much. Are you ever honest?

The Bruins also have Swayman

Leafs would be in a much better position with Campbell!

Weren't Tampa supposed to be worse w/o Palat and McDonaugh ??

Hagel has essentially replaced Palat's production and the rise of Perbix has helped Tampa's top 4

These guys just don't die unfortunately

 

[Sypher04]

Well, Boston and Tampa were both losing in the 2nd when I checked last night, so naturally they both won

They were supposed to be bad when they lost their 3rd line a couple of years ago.

Defensively they aren’t as strong as they were, but they were still expected to be pretty good - and they’ve probably outperformed that. Still have Hedman, still have Cernak, still have Vasi

It's so obvious that the Avs are coasting and going to try and flip the switch for the playoffs. Just wish they'd have coasted a little less and actually f***ing beaten Tampa.

As the number of Leaf losses to bottom feeders grows, should we really be complaining about the Avs losing to one of our team's rivals. Our Leafs could be hanging in the standings with the Bruins if they showed up and beaten the teams that they should!!!

Should we be complaining about the Leafs losing while missing Matthews, Muzzin, and Murray?

It brought the Leafs down, and they had a stinker too.

Though some positions are easier to make up with via depth/committee sharing than others.

Tampa outshooting the Coyotes 37-13. game its tied 0-0 lol Ingram putting on a clinic for the yotes

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Tampa outshooting the Coyotes 37-13. game its tied 0-0 lol Ingram putting on a clinic for the yotes

Meanwhile, Campbell is doing the opposite with 4 goals on 14 shots. The first and fourth goals were pretty bad

Tampa loses in SO.

 

[RunItBackAgain]

Wow they got Zona'd SO HARD

 

[BTP]

God bless Arizona

They’ve swept us, and beaten both Tampa and Boston lmao

 

[SprDaVE]

I'm looking forward to the fire Cooper articles tomorrow.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Oilers fans were touting how well Campbell's been playing lately lol.

 

[Gabriel426]

More like Trotz replacing Cooper

 

[Peasy]

Oilers fans were touting how well Campbell's been playing lately lol.

A broken clock is right twice a day.

He had a 9-0 stretch with only like a .915sv% lol. Team is doin more work for the wins than him.

9-0-1 in those last 10 with those stats lol.

Oiler fans experiencing that just because Campbell has wins doesnt mean hes the one that got em.

 

[Nineteen67]

The TB AZ game was the funniest games I’ve seen in a long time. It got to the point that each time Tampa came down the ice, you wondered what crazy thing would happen to prevent them from scoring.

 

[The Podium]

Wow they got Zona'd SO HARD

That’s not possible, check again. I thought the Leafs were the only team that lost against bottom feeders

 

[leafsfan5]

The Leafs lose to bottom feeders at a disproportionate rate in comparison to the other top 5 teams in the NHL

Going to be a problem in the playoffs when they’re battling those bottom feeders
