Leafs D has 19 goals in total. Makar gets his 30th to become first dman since Green in 2008 to do it. That folks is elite and he's doing it for less money that our 4 chokers.

I mean, Dmen on whole always get paid less than forwards so that foesn't really matter.

Plus Makar is about to become paid more than every Leaf, until Mattjews signs again

We just need a Makar to win the cup... wish they sucked as much as MacKinnon so they could finish last.

MacKinnon's Avs came in last, got Makar in the draft (luckily fell to 4th, probably wouldn't have grabbed him otherwise), and then he got MacKinnon out of the 2nd round for the first and only time in his career.

Sucks that the chokers don't have a Makar like MacKinnon does.
 
No idea what relevance Makar has in tonight’s game but Zach Werenski is a guy who’s is playing in this and can be a difference maker. Not many defensemen lead their teams in scoring.
Slightly off-topic but it's absolutely crazy that Quinn Hughes has missed 8 games and still leads his team in scoring by 24 points.

Think he'd be a Hart front-runner if he didn't get hurt
 
The Core 4 account for 50 % of the outcome because they consume 50% of the Cap.

You're banking on the other 50% coming through in the clutch. :wg:
Group A, Core 4, >……………………………………………..47 million accounted for 131 goals
Group B, The rest of the forwards - Laughton, ……13.8 million accounted for 90 goals

Which group is not pulling their share?
And if we are being fair let’s minus the PPG’s which the rest of the forwards are at a disadvantage since they log little time
131- 40=91
90- 12=78

So a 13 goal difference

Dobson would get the job done we don’t actually need a makar

We just traded away 2 opportunities to do just that

Even if they didn't, this team can't tank like the one MacKinnon led...

One of our big issues (no one likes to admit it), is that our star players have been good their entire career, it has affected contracts and drafting.

No need to tank, but trading 3 first round picks plus Minten MAY have gotten us into the top 5 to find that Makar. We will never know.

According to someone that follows the leafs the practice yesterday had a more focused and serious feel to it and matthews looked noticeably more dialed in than usual.

I expect a win tonight
