Nonis isnt the GM anymore.....so he’ll likely sign an OS and be gone? .

So they basically gave Eberle to the Isles.
To me I think he is not just telling his team, he is also telling the MGT.
man is he a player, Flames ran him all night Saturday and the guy just keeps bringing it, he's a stud, no doubt about it.Connor McDavid basically told his team if you aren't with it, get out.
good for him.
Actually, their goaltending, while reasonable, isn't the only, or even the biggest, reason they are doing well. Their bottom six has been excellent at shutting down opponents (Washington managed only 19 shots Sunday), and their defence has been solid.A few years ago the Avs took their hot streak into the first round of the playoffs and then hit the bottom 10 of the league the next one. If the Islanders get this level of goaltending beyond this season I’ll be pretty surprised.
so CBJ hired st louis as a special consultant to improve their PP; can the Leafs look to do something like that and stop being so freakin' predictable on the PP?
I wish Chia was our GM. he understands the value of toughness and backup goalies
They would have to stop using Marner as the QB on the sidewall for starters, this would be a good thread ... design a new PP setup/structure with our players' "skill sets" .... example: don't expect Rielly to be one-timing bombs from the blue line, not his thing

Apparently all they need to do is read this forum!so CBJ hired st louis as a special consultant to improve their PP; can the Leafs look to do something like that and stop being so freakin' predictable on the PP?
but he brought in guys like Lucic and Kassian. he knows what kind of players it takes to win. we're stuck with some millennial teenager who wants to turn us into a figure skating teamMan. I'm not much for appeals to authority, but I'm very big on respecting the expertise in a certain field. If Babcock says something that goes completely contrary to my take on a topic, I'll rethink unless I have some good support for my case. But I have to be honest. I'm 100% sure I could do a better job as a GM than Chiarelli has. I don't think I'd be good, not at all. But Chiarelli just takes mind-numbing incompetence to a whole 'nother level.
The leafs in their first rebuild are ahead of the Oilers 3rd rebuild.He still had defenders as early as Thisbe offseason. Insane
