HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2025 Playoff edition

The Canes slaughtered the Capitals and now are on the receiving end of a complete drubbing by the Panthers.

These playoffs, and the performance of both the team that defeated us with relative ease and, in turn, the Hurricanes, should be something of a reality check to confirm that we are incredibly far off from being contenders.
Which is as expected as this team realistically was hoping to fight to be in the mix for a playoff spot. There is still a long way to go in terms of development and filling in roster holes before we're at the contention stage
 
Core-4 won’t be together… not after Marner turn down offer, then refuses to lift clause for a trade, agent leaks info about being harassed by fans…

Core-3 is possible though…
Leafs had 4 years to trade Marner. And they had time to trade him when Treveling came on board before his NMC kicked in. Marner is NOT to blame for that mess. He might be a little shit head, but in this case, I give him 100% the right to say no. The Leafs 100% deserve this mess they made for themselves. Marner will go finish his career somewhere else and be successful.

Leads should also not resign Tavares at all, unless he accepts something like 3M. Dude is coooooooked. What they should do is trade Mathews for a haul and start over/retool. You need balls to make the big trades that put you over the top. Look at Florida. They moved Huberdeau for Tkachuk and that move took major balls and it got them at least 1 cup. Might get them 2. Now that's what the Leafs need to do. Will they though? Probably not.

The Leafs don't have balls. They are a marketing organization first and a sports organization second. Having recognizable names sells merchandise and that's what they mostly care about. The team is unbalanced because of those big names? Ownership can't hear you over the sound of sweet money rolling in.

DING DING !!! :thumbu: no worries,Smarty Bonaparte will miraculously gain years of coaching knowledge this summer. :badidea:
 
The Leafs are a really good team. They're solid. Issue is when Tampa was in their heyday they were better. The Bruins were better. And, now Florida is better. All 3 are in the same division as Leafs (and Habs).

I really don't know what Toronto does now to improve, but they'll definitely be tweaking it again albeit without Marner.
Loss to Montreal seem to break them.

Looks like the Team Canada group will get away with the group rape. Judge won't admit text messages that clearly outline that the girls recollection of events, particularly regarding the aggressive buttocks slapping, as part of the verdict.

As someone in law school, regardless of the admittance of this evidence, and the same with the Diddy case, and Andrew Tate case, cases that involve sexual assault with no physical evidence or very little tangible evidence is very hard to convict on. Its not as black and white as homicide. Sucks for the victims
