Maple Leaf Appreciation Thread

[Jimmy Firecracker]

I appreciate how they always find new and exciting ways to humiliate themselves and embarrass us fans.

Uhhh, anyone watching the Habs humiliating the Jets, literally toying with them.........

Habs, for the playoffs, got back Weber, Price and Gallagher.

Ugh, that is a pretty huge steroid booster. We, should not feel as bad as we did at first.

Habs, are easily my second favourite team. So my interest in the playoffs continues.

Leafs are my number one. But I feel grateful, that I have another love interest. I was born and raised in Quebec, so, its a miracle I became a primary Leaf fan.

I appreciate that they don't seem to care how much of an embarrassment they are as long as they can collect their fat paychecks.

I'm sorry but they're past the stage for getting any type of appreciation without any playoff success.

They're piling excuses over excuses. Even if by some sheer miracle, these guys are able to make it past the first round next year, they will hold on to that success and continually preach patience. These supposed stars have a fairly low bar, in my opinion and it starts from the top where the excuses start from the President and then the GM. I would have appreciated if they came out and outlined how disappointed they were in the core after putting them in the best possible situation to succeed. I would have appreciated some harsh undertones resulting in some straight up pressure on these core 4 - starting from the way they train, to the regular season and then hopefully the playoffs.

Same goes for the coach who is also to blame. It is unacceptable how these guys were prepared to start games 5-6-7 and it was equally unacceptable that the PP was the way it was and that he wasn't able to adjust it in time for the playoffs.

disappointing ending but still grateful to watch a team with tremendous talent. I became leaf fan in 2006, so my first 10 years were wasted by watching a bad team with no superstar talent. Yes, it definitely disappointing that a team with this much talent continues to not have playoff success but I could take this over those darks year anytime. I have actually started to believe this franchise is cursed so it does not really matter what players come and go, it will always end up in disappointment.

but hope still lies...

nothing to appreciate besides them bringing back the old logo

buncha lollies

I mean they out played the habs and lost to a very good goalie, team is very good and got to first in their division.

Haters gon hate

They won their division in the regular season. Who cares about that. Habs are one game away from winning the North Division in the post season which is the one that counts.

It takes a high degree of commitment to keep up that level of ineptitude.
Plus thinking up new ways to outdo yourself.
How do you top a Zamboni driver?
Hold my beer.

That’s some appreciation right there.
I thought this team had no identity. I was wrong. They really do.

 

[Marshy]

I appreciate the loyal fans who've taken an ass pounding from the team. Been embarrassed and mercilessly trolled by other fanbases and people who barely follow hockey and just want to pile on.

Shanny promised us fans that he would bring back blue and white pride. So far nothing but failure.

No one is saying you need to make a decision, but it might help with our confusion.
