GDT: Leafs @ Lightning 7 PM - the Grand Finale, 70 or bust.

[Rob Brown]

Nylander's bar should've been 9.5

Marner's bar should've been 11.5

instead nylander got 11.5 and marner is going to get 12.5-13.

what a f***ing disgrace

It's Dubas' fault, really. Both Matthews and Marner should have gotten less on the first deals.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Am I really wrong to say Carlyle coached better in that one series than Babcock and Keefe have?

Maybe. That team was average at best.

 

[Blanka]

Whoever is making posts like get rid of the core in this GDT better not be here If and a big IF leafs get past Boston.

I'm not sure getting past the first round should be the ultimate indicator of this team's success lol

 

[Al14]

Can't even do that cause he has a full NMC.

Team is fully trapped on this treadmill once Marner re-signs.

NMCs can be waived if pressure is put on the player to leave !!!

 

[Rob Brown]

You keep telling yourself that.

That isn't a rebuttal.

 

[LastOne2100]

Christ, can you all give it a f***ing rest.
If they play the series to 7 games they deserved to get to 7. I get we have looked like shit the last few games, but the defeatist attitudes and dooms saying is incredibly annoying.

If you’re so convinced they won’t put up a fight, then I guess there’s no need to watch. Feel free to do that. No one is forcing you to support this team.

Glad you can still have blind hope for a team with this many critical issues. I am jealous.

But this is not just about the last few games.

 

[Evilhomer]

You're out to lunch, man

No, I just know what meaningless hockey looks like, and I know that the result in one game has no influence on the result of the next game.

You know those people will be saying "I always believed" if we win.

This.

 

[Stephen]

Keefe seemed to be jealous his player might score 70

I don't see how this guy can be our coach next year. Edmonton fires their coach every other season but we have to stick with this guy.

Kefe is just an unconfident Eyore who has no filter with his nervous, goober thoughts. He's careless with his words and has zero game behind what he's projecting to the public. He's an open, crappy book.

 

[Jmo89]

These losers aren't even going to get Matthews #70.

They are certainly filling us with loads of confidence before the playoffs.

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

That isn't a rebuttal.

Neither was your original point. Salary structure is dictated by comparable contracts, not tax brackets.

 

[Aashir]

yea it really cannot be understated how badly he f***ed those contracts up

both guys should still have 3 years left on a better deal. ditto nylander for 2

instead we paid nba terms

Yeah, but you don't, actually.

Nice of you to miss the point of the post

 

[Rob Brown]

It has more of an impact than you are suggesting.

 

[Stephen]

I doubt they care about us. They missed the f***ing playoffs.

Always make time for schadenfreude in sports.

 

[MSZ]

Carlyle brought the best out of that group of players.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I really pray that you're right.

I can't see I'm not, if he losses to Boston surely he can't survive, he just can't

 

[Racer88]

I bet those guys are having a great time watching this travesty unfold.

They shouldn’t be…..Dubas created this nightmare

 

[Sypher04]

It’s not blind hope. The leafs have issues, but guess what, so does Boston.

 

[Rob Brown]

And what if the Leafs beat Boston? What will they be feeling then?

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Keefe completely screwed up this end of season. Beginning with not having Matthews for empty net then complaining about distraction and complaining fans are asking for it.

He made it more of a bad thing then something we celebrate. Completely screwed everything up

 

[keonsbitterness]

I'll be back to optimistic by Saturday.

Stupid me.

 

[Jojalu]

calling it a myth on something that doesn't have an absolute answer is a sure way to continue a conversation.

see how that works?

anyway, we'll all see soon enough.

I guess I missed someone calling it a myth.

There is 100% momentum can carry over.

I am more worried about creating bad habits by playong so loose rather than being on a losing streak.

Like I said. Bos has zero momentum as well so it will be interesting
