GDT: Leafs vs Bruins - 7PM HNIC

[Confucius]

I am Tiger Woods

Has been

 

[TMLAM34]

Is this game out of reach?

What about the season? Did it end?

Would save us the embarrassment if it did.

 

[hamzarocks]

I have no issue moving on from WIlly. No secret I've always been a hater

Marner, JT and Willy out free up all the moneyz

The time to do that was 2023 draft

Best time to begin a 3-year quick rebuild

Matthews @50% gone for a massive package

Marner @50% retained for massive package

Rielly dealt for a decent deal after a good playoffs

Nylander @50% as a 1 year rental for a great deal

Ride out JT for 2 years, tank and rebuild the team from the backend out

Noe we are committed to 34 and 88 for next 4 years min and 44 is stuck for now as he has tok much term and needs to play better if we do deal.him

We can only do a mini retool this summer. Major retool/core rebuild chance was blown when we hired Treliving tk try and extend core and win rather than blow it up

For better or worse we are with this core or 60%. of it for next 4 years. Hopefully they can figure shit out and win 1 cup like the CAPs didn

 

[Mr_Fun]

They pretty much need to have a good PP here. Any flubbery could kill a lot of much needed momentum.

/I remember actually feeling good about upcoming PP's.

 

[Gallagbi]

He's playing too high in the lineup, tbh.

We're pretty shallow upfront right now with Jarn and Dewar out. I'm wondering how much of a factors that's been in keeping the lines as is

It usually ends in Boston, so maybe...

 

[fahad203]

Whatever we do don't sign him until the end of the year, his decline is apparent.

I corrected for you

 

[francis246]

The Core is 27/28 years old, all in their "prime". What we see is as good as it's going to get.

And no, our three 11+ million dollar players does not equal having three Nathan MacKinnon's to roll out. How the hell do these guys make same or more than MacKinnon?

Is there another pro franchise in all of sports that would stay this loser course for eight years?

It's all on Shanahan.

Haha the Dallas Cowboys just reupped Dak Prescott to a hella rich contract despite the lack of playoff success. Their reasoning was Daks numbers are better than Patrick Mahomes, they would not be able to find a suitable QB replacement who comes close in the draft or UFA

 

[wingman75]

Cooked core.

JT MR MM

Could do without

8 years is too small a sample size according to the execs at MLSE.

Can't win with all three. Proven fact.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

alright the comeback of the season starts now

 

[Leafidelity]

begin a 3-year quick rebuild

lol

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Come off the edge.

 

[Nineteen67]

We need a center. I think a trade is coming. We need to acquire another center who can help provide scoring. Liljegren to Calgary for a retained Kadri could make sense.

They still need forwards and D. And for goodness sakes more speed and skill. Their skilled players are slow and soft.

I am Malcolm X.

 

[DarkKnight]

Big period.

 

[klmdg]

JT still out on PP1

 

[wingman75]

I'd put PP2 on now. What is the point of this?

 

[sxvnert]

"Berube likes the way they're playing"

Seriously getting Babs era vibes with this guy.

 

[Gallagbi]

Seeing more Mo on the PP this game

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I am Malcolm X.

 

[ToMaLe]

More evidence why this team should never dish out another no trade no movement contract.

Coming into this game, John Beecher is tied with Auston Matthews in points. I think the underachieving at the top is more of a factor in the forward group looking bad than missing Jarnkrok and Dewar.

 

[weems]

Our zone entries suck

 

[Ianturnedbull]

My Dude,

Be cool. It's early. Many of you said this team will win the cup. Now you are saying they won't make the playoffs. Whoa whoa whoa.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Even with them, it's shallow.


The D, though...

Rielly looks lost
McCabe looks slow
Tanev is pretty much the backup goalie.

The 3 man RD carousel is what it is


OEL is carrying the group, really.
