We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Are Avs fans saying the same thing about Coyle and Nelson? I swear Maple Leaf fans have battered wife syndrome. The guy is garbage. What you see is what you get.
Stop. You are embarrassing yourself.
I didn't want him, but even I understand you need to give someone time, and not have the patience of a gnat.
We have been sparing time for decades. Is the objective to win or not? Did the scouts do their jobs? If the scouts did their jobs properly his integration into this team would be seamless like other team's acquisitions.
Are the playoffs over? Did he fail in the playoffs?
I thought that's all the mattered.
All the drama of a teenaged girl. Embarrassing.
I can appreciate the fact that he is new to the system, but playing soft and not even trying to make a hit or start a brawl is kind of embarrassing. Getting used to the team is one thing, but ffs when he played for flyers he always played hard against the leafs. Where is that Laughton? Or severe case of leafitis got him already?
It would be nice if we could win the division for once and get an 'easier' opponent. You'd think we would be closer after giving up such premium assets.
If you're expecting Laughton to be as impactful as Coyle or Nelson than I don't know what to tell you. He's a 3rd liner...
There's a reason the Avalanche paid more for those players.
I want to give this guy time at centre, but he seems to be more comfortable on the wing. I think he played most of the season on the wing with Philly. No one can deny he’s been pretty brutal these three games. I see nothing that augments our team.
Honestly the First impressions of him on the leafs are not good so far, but he only played three games for us. Let him acclimate to his new team in the last stretch of the regular season, and see what he can do in the playoffs. Hopefully he performs well there.
Our team will always suck if our top guys suck. Top guys have been awful so the team has looked awful. We should know this by now.
