GDT: Leafs vs Oil. 9pm, TSN4

[LeafSteel]

Losing interest, to be honest.

50 years+ and never thought I’d ever say it, but they are as unlikeable collection of players that can ever remember, Keefe is hopelessly inept, and the entire organization feels like it is stuck in quicksand.

I think they lose tonight.

Hyman is going to run a train tonight against his old mates

Seriously though, I am so happy for that guy. A heart and soul type of guy.

I loved watching him play. It’s too bad I never get to see him out there in hockey hinterlands.

Tavares effect?

Just get a shot of JD in you and throw a few bucks on the games and you'll rekindle your passion brother. It is bleak right now seeing this collection of talent and big bucks being seemingly wasted. There's no excuse for the supporting cast players to be so unproductive. Looking at their stats is just plain ugly. Knies , Robertson , Domi and Bertuzzi should all have way better numbers based on their talent and playing with superstars. What the hell are these coaches doing.

 

[leafs in five]

Knies should watch a game or two from the pressbox imo. Holmberg's been good and Robertson didn't really do anything to lose his place.

Never liked it when he left too bad he wouldnt take some sort of discount. What you said I agree with 100%

 

[ACC1224]

Biggest week of Keefes coaching career.

 

[Drytoast]

Honestly could care less to watch. It's Edmonton which makes me less interested. I hope they lose. I wanna see major changes from the stupid Shanaplan where we pay all our cap to 3 f***ing players.

Domi and Bertuzzi are performing about where expected. Domi was absolute garbage in Carolina and has a similar role with the Leafs.

 

[Evilhomer]

Based on how the team has been playing, this should be a definitive loss.

Leafiness says they prob win this one and have a good road trip.

I think they will win all of these games and take 3 of 4 points from Winnipeg. These Western teams are overrated based on the number of points they are handed by San Jose, Anaheim and Chicago.

Robertson shouldn’t be in that at group he never gets the benefit of playing with top players on the team he did in past years I don’t see why not give him a shot now put jt with holmberg and jarnkrok he needs good stating defensive players on his wing nylanders ds taken steps put him and matty with Robertson nylanders and matthews can both get Robertson open to use his wicced shot

Domi and Bertuzzi are performing about where expected. Domi was absolute garbage in Carolina and has a similar role with the Leafs.

Leave him in the 2c with marner and Bert

Uh halfway through the season they should have more than 4-6 goals. They are playing with better players their numbers should be skewed upwards not where they are at. Bert in particular pisses me off because I really like the guy but he hasn't bought in. Maybe Keefe shouldn't have screamed at him on the bench and he'd be playing like he can.

Why do people feel the need to take the time to go to a Teams message board, whine about the team all day and then declare that they don't care?

 

[horner]

Prediction: Hyman with GWG, Oilers win 6-2. Keefe keeps job, as Shanny wants to blow yet another year of the core.

Hyman out works the core 4 scores 3

I often wonder what players think about that trip to Edmonton.

Not caring enough to watch =/= not caring.

Only an idiot would think we are trending in the right direction right now.

Someone has to play 2c. It may as well be him.

Bertuzzi is a 10-15 goal scorer. The players he’s playing with don’t have history of making players around them better. The biggest surprise with Bertuzzi is that he’s been healthy.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Sometimes I reminisce about the Canadian division. I kinda miss it. I don’t miss why it was created, but I miss how intense games were at times. I liked playing teams like Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg 9 times a year. It was fun. Imagine that but now with fans in the buildings.

I guess I am in the minority.

I Know i know "its Edmonton cry cry cry" usually in any interview ive watched/read they love coming out here and seeing all the western fans hang around the entrance during the warmups. As a fan out here everyone treats them like rock stars everyone dusts off their old Potvin, Gilmour Sundin etc. Jerseys for the games. When I could afford to get Leafs tickets here, would take my Dad all the time he was never a fan of being sandwiched between me and other Leaf fans.

Bertuzzi was a 30 30 man just a couple seasons ago. He would not have garnered 5.5 million if he was a 10 goal player those grow on trees.

Only an idiot would get that impression by reading what's discussed here daily.

Imagine being traded there?

I miss it too. Id love to see one season where they run it back like that but with a packed arenas

Especially in January....

They can be thankful it wont be -40C as the high like it was a few days ago. Maybe -20-22

Big No! I don't like watching non Leafs games on TV that are played in Edmonton, Winnipeg, or Vancouver.

The division itself was okay, every team was a rival. But I think shortened seasons are just more exciting because it’s more a sprint.

For me that division will always remind me of their all-time choke job against the Habs.
