Proposal: Chi-Tor

Am I sure that the team that middle of the pack in offense and has held 1st in the Atlantic for 3/4 of the season has a better defense than a team in competition got 1st OA? Yeah I am.

Sorry I should have been more specific, I was referencing your comment where you were saying defense isn’t the Leafs primary concern.

With Reilly’s struggles and limited offense being generated from the back end I could see it being a point of emphasis for Treliving. I also don’t see rolling out the likes of Benoit and Timmins as regulars being a winning recipe come playoff time.

I just don't think these are the type of dmen the Leafs need. They are 32nd in the league for offense from their D. Their defense is very good at actual defense. They need offense and not offense like Barrie but someone who won't get caved in non sheltered minutes but can produce on the PP.

Instead of trying to get that unicorn, better off addressing the forward group. It needs help badly. We need guys who can score.

Let's not say things we both know aren't true

Oh I know it’s true. Have you not watched a Chicago game lately? He’s totally cooked. He skates like he’s stuck in mud too. He’s no longer the player he once was. He’s a 7D now on any contenders

I think Rielly turns it around. He was bad a lot of last year and then got hot down the stretch. Year before he did the same had an amazing playoff. Just needs to get the green light to do offensive dman things. Berube has talked lately about wanting him to start making those plays again.

We'll see
