The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
For the cap hit of Reaves and Bertuzzi - you could have had a season with Hellybuck as your goalie to try and right the ship. It was there all summer. Sad that the ship has sailed, I’m a huge Hellybuck fan and he would have finally had a legit chance at a cup.

Sigh.

Send him over!

They both are terrible. Klingberg was on worse teams and the +\- comes mainly from that. I’ll give you that Holl is probably a bit more effective but I think he is getting way too overrated now that Klingberg is here. If Holl was here instead of Klingberg how much difference would that make overall? Maybe a goal or two on the plus side.

Klingberg played in Dallas, just a partial season in Anaheim last year. Sure Holl was on a better team but man Klingberg can't even get a shot on net without someone blocking it right now. He's not even good on the powerplay. I wouldn't have him on this team taking up zero cap space.

Guy makes decisions on the ice like he's still thinking about that contract he didn't sign.

Insane isn't it? We could've also could've kept Schenn and Gustafsson for the price of Klingberg.
 
Wake the f*** up Treliving.

How was your dinner ?


Not a chance. He's going to get picked up by Dubas so fast
Considering he's openly shitting on the GM and we currently have the worst system hockey of his time here I'm not convinced that isn't that he's going for

Yeah, or like there's forcefield around him where the other teams can't catch up to him or stand in the way of his shots :laugh:
 
Team's bleeding chances most nights, but honestly deserved a better fate tonight.

Klingberg is basically unplayable right now

I would hope he'd be in the press box next game, but with all the injuries, that's tough to do.
 
Best part of that game was the guy booing so loud Simpson and Cuthbert couldn't ignore it. Legendary crowd voice (or close to a microphone somewhere) I assume he got thrown out or got a talking to because the fun ended.

Klingberg needs to be sent down/traded/robdias island. He is trending towards being the worst defender we’ve had at least in the Matthews era and probably up there for all time.

If I was them I would do it now. Save everyone the embarassment of dragging this out any further.
 
Man do we have some serious issues

This team has been mismanaged for years combined with a God awful off-season from the new GM some major problems are now coming home to rost

Klingberg is a joke, Reeves just outright sucks, Kampf does nothing useful and our goaltending and defense had massive problems going into the off-season thanks to the last GM

Management needs a clean out and we need a new direction because this isn't working
 
One day leaf fans will realize they dont want to win, they just pretend they do. No one wanted what happened. Everyone knows this model is broken and wont work. You have 4 guys eating half the cap while they play fill in the blanks with cast offs from other teams. They sell it as a plan. Do you see any plan here? In about 2 weeks this season is done already. It isnt even pathetic because the fact is this team keeps getting run by NHL insiders who screw the fans on purpose. They are laughing at you. You pay to watch this garbage?
