This is classic Torts, in a good way. He will tear the guys down and build them up entirely his way. It'll get worse before it gets better, but he's inheriting a mess.

He's the perfect coach for that situation, but probably the opposite of what that franchise actually needs at this point, directionally. He'll get more out of them than most coaches in this league. In the right situation the guys a weapon.

The team will be treading water in no time. Whether or not its what they should be doing is another matter altogether
 
The Scotia Bank logo on the Leafs sweater doesn't look that bad. This looks completely out of place :

What's your thoughts on ads on sweaters?
They totally suck, but won't go away.

I'm wondering about sales. If they include the logo on merchandise, will it sell as well (I have five NHL sweaters, but will not buy one with a corporate logo - beyond the team's). If the don't include it, will it be 'authentic'?
 
Quebec political parties weighing in on the Suzuki captaincy decision. The not so subtle, you should have picked a French Canadian again. And they say toronto is the toughest market.

We dont have that extra layer of people dumbasses they do.

Happy to see that that regular season win against the Leafs for the Jets last year brought the boys together in such a way that they missed the playoffs and now their captain has been stripped of the C (likely because he asked for a trade in the off-season and they weren't able to move him).
 
Jets locker room has been a problem for years. Whole “leadership” group should be purged. And if they can’t manage that then neutering them like they just did with Wheeler is the next best option.

That's part of the problem of course. It isn't like it's a secret that the Jets have a locker room issue, and that Wheeler appears to be a big part of that. Players have allegedly said it, Maurice simply left the team last year. Who is going to trade a meaningful asset for a 36 yo. locker room problem at $8.25 mil?

don't forget their coach quit on the team. The Jets are lucky nobody cares about them, or people would have such a field day with how inept they are
 
Its so annoying being a leafs fan and trying to discuss anything hockey on the internet.

Talk about a bad contract? Well you can guarantee someone coming in being like "LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLLLLLLLLLLL YOU OVERPAID MATTHEWS AND MARNER LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL JT" (as if i had some sort of control over the negotiations myself)

Not high on a team doing well in the playoffs? "LOLLL DONT TALK UNTIL THE LEAFS WIN A ROUND"

Mention a player leaving a team? "LMAO CANT WAIT TILL MATTHEWS WALKS IN 2 YEARS"

Can't show the slightest optimism without being hit with 1967, 4-1, 1st round etc etc.

Not to mention the countless people that make their entire identity about hating the Leafs. Theres so many of them on HF its cringe. Theres a Canucks fan with the username on here "Kyle Dubas is a Geek". Like man, how childish do you have to be lmao. I'm also willing to bet that person is over 30 years old so it makes it even more cringe.
We're the Knicks/Cowboys in the NHL

Teams hate us more than they love their own teams at times

We're better then those teams in terms of in game success but not to the point where we'd like to be.

Those teams sign 29/30/31 year old JT type deals only to finish 11th seed lool
 

This is a professional sports league BTW

Just serve breaded alligator meat bites with some yummy dipping sauce and maybe even gator skin purses and boots. Seems pretty easy to me and totally won’t ruffle any feathers.
