[Teeder Keon]

Couldn’t buy one there.

Then ……

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Is he the same guy, that used to play for the Leafs?

Now he's somebody that we used to knoooooow

 

[Notsince67]

Nope, Bobbys knees gave out.


Iafrate played from the mid 80's to the mid 90's , Bobby played from the mid 60's to the mid 70's, no comparison in technology.

Bobby hulls shot was recorded at 120mph though the tech wasn't good. Having seen him play, I wouldn't be surprised if it was close to 110mph. His strength was off the charts

 

[authentic]

Don't really see what's so good about Lafferty. Seems no different than Engvall.

Engvall is a better player than Lafferty.

 

[MoreMogilny]

It was more important to be 10 NHL defensemen deep for some f***ing reason

Apparently

Kampf
Acciari
Lafferty
Kerfoot
Jarnkrok

Who is going to score out of this group in the playoffs? Inevitably our top guys are going to struggle when faced with pressure in the playoffs. So who steps up? I’m sure Holmberg will see some time. Maybe Knies will sign? I’m worried

 

[leafsfan5]

Leafs wanted EK65?

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

The team lacks offensive depth and it wasn't addressed at the deadline. I also think it may be a coaching issue at this point as well.

 

[IPS]

That and apparantly a guy like Kerfoot can't ever be involved in potential upgrade.

 

[PromisedLand]

Back to back nights where offence is neutered. This was a worry heading into the TDL but it was pretty much ignored. Got better everywhere except there and goaltending (though I’m more confident in our goalies than most).

Keefe galaxy braining has more to do with the lack of offense IMO

 

[Notsince67]

I've notice Lafferty. Engvall...only occasionally

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

He should go back to the Good Ontario Boy line

 

[Confucius]

No worries we got tougher

 

[MoreMogilny]

To be fair, Engvall has never scored a single playoff goal through 17 games

You’re right. But he has improved in overall production. He’s not the be all end all, but he was our most productive bottom 6 forward this season and now he’s gone. Who we are playing in his place shows no more promise than he did offensively

 

[Antropovsky]

Feel a like leafs have been outplayed against bad team's for some time now.

The Leafs dominated the first and the end of that period. Take away Van City's PP time and it probably looks worse.

Dominated? Vancouver had the best chances... If it weren't for Murray it would easily be 3-0. I only began watching at 12 min mark and saw what looked like pretty much a 2-0 that Murray fortunately got a toe on, and a breakaway. And obviously there was also the pp goal.

 

[Jojalu]

How can the Leafs be 2-15 against the Canucks in Van since 2010?

But at the same time be playing over .700 at home during the same time!

This is worse than the old Aud in Buffalo

 

[therealkoho]

Must report both sides to be fair as I toasted him earlier

Sandman
3A in a win

And I'll ask again why does it matter

 

[Artemi Panarin]

“Deals that didn’t happen” is such a dumb segment lol

 

[Antropovsky]

I'm worried about Oreilly, he took a wicked shot from Matthews right off the hand and he was shaking it in pain.

 

[Gilmour1996]

Lots of successful teams have had less offensive skills than the Leafs but they had compete, defensive awareness and played a system implemented by a great coach.

 

[All Mod Cons]

No worries we got tougher

Do you think Kyle gone done f***ed up again?

 

[Antropovsky]

And I'll ask again why does it matter

Everyone tracks traded players, especially young ones.

 

[IPS]

Nothing wrong with trading Engvall, he plays like a bitch.

I do wonder however if management overrated the Lafferty and Acciari acquisitions to replace him atleast offensively.

 

[Eye Test]

Is 34 playing today or just picking up his cheque?

 

[DarkKnight]

Bobby hulls shot was recorded at 120mph though the tech wasn't good. Having seen him play, I wouldn't be surprised if it was close to 110mph. His strength was off the charts

Saw this photo of him recently, sweet lord.
