End of Season Pressers (Monday May 15)

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I don't really care what they say about the players. If they're committed to this core or not, it doesn't really do much good to announce their plans here. I do want to see condemnation of the coaching, since that is strictly an internal matter. Keefe can't stay

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

Systems are down at work, anything spicy?

 

[DarkKnight]

Wonder if we commit to 10-8 next year?

 

[Trapper]

20 minutes late lol

I’m sure they will come out hard in the 2nd period.

 

[Rob Brown]

It appears as though the Leafs systems are down as well.

 

[MCR74]

I’m sure they will come out hard in the 2nd period.

Come out hard during the second period? What's that like?

It appears as though the Leafs systems are down as well.

What else is new?

 

[Bomber0104]

Not surprising they're late, and unprepared for the media.

I mean, they're going to try to convince everyone winning a single first round series over 7 years is an accomplishment of some sort, right?

 

[DarkKnight]

Keefe is driving Dubas to the presser, but he took another route he says is better, they’re in Pembroke now.

 

[Trapper]

I think Dubas did good work at the deadline.

But his guy behind the bench couldn't get anything from Tavares or Matthews when it counted.

Or maybe Keefe is such a great coach to actually win a round with a core that isn’t built for the playoffs. Babcock couldn’t.

Nylander going to the Worlds is well played. He gets to keep playing hockey and misses media clear out day lol.

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

Let's just trust the process.

 

[lanceuppercut75]

They probably just fired Shanahan and Dubas and Snoop Dogg is going to be giving the presser as new team president

 

[The Masters]

All I ask is to call it how it is and not to talk down to people. Both Shanny and Dubas last year went up there and were cocky and talked as if it was guaranteed they were going to win a cup. Delusional stuff.

Another banner baby.

 

[QJo]

Jokes aside, it is bad when management can't be punctual. It trickles down the organization a sense of casual attitude. When managers can't be punctual employees don't feel the seriousness of the matter at hand.

I actually appreciate how much Nylander legitimately loves hockey. Not every player is like that and are just in it for the money/status

Well it is isn't it?

Based on this Cup should be going to Toronto when some of their offspring are in the line-up. Maybe marner can start on that now?

 

[wingman75]

We aren’t lucky enough to have those who claim they “will jump ship”, to actually do it. They’ll be back with the same complaints and threats of leaving next year.

What will happen if “losing starts to hit the bottom line’ ?

Unclear. I am not sure it is even possible. But I would assume the leash on the management and players would be severely shortened.

Seems to me any of these types of things, in any sport, starts late.

Nylander loves hockey, golf not so much.

Sounds impulsive, not sure that's the right approach either.

Lots of factors that go into this sort of stuff - media availability, setup, technical stuff, etc.

The "Shanaplan" is working! Lol

[lanceuppercut75]

30 minutes late. Christ.
