I watched a documentary some time ago about the Broad Street Bullies of the 70s and how the owner was watching his team get pummeled in back to back playoff years and he decided to stack the team with hard, fighters and physical forwards. Basically their ownership knew they couldn't pretend the same cast of players would change their stripes so they went in a different direction.

It took them two years, it's 9 years and counting in Toronto...

What are you even trying to say? That this team is soft? Because you need to watch the NHL. This team is one of the tougher ones in the league. The sport has changed
 
I understand every great team has ups and downs in the season but never to this extreme. The Leafs go from looking like the best team in the league to barely a bubble team to often.
 
Why are the Leafs' O-zone passes always so slow?

By the time the puck arrives, the goalie has time to eat a sandwich and then set up for a shot.

There are only a few guys that have been here the whole time. Maybe a different 4th line winger may help?
 
What's new. Teams play hard and take away space and have success. Easy playing the Leafs. Nucks dont seem tired at all

He's just not it. Got that Samsonov vibe to him. Looks elite for stretches but lets in massive stinkers every night that deflates the team

He's young in his career, but the last thing we need is a nervous guy, googly eyes, butter fingers and happy feet goaltending.
 
I used to think Timmins needed development time and would improve, now I’m thinking he has Al Iafrate syndrome

Their strong streak was largely a mirage, I told you all this. Stolarz was insane, in the lead for the Vezina perhaps at one point. Woll wasn't far behind.

The core leaders just don't have it when the big games and the big boys play.

Yes, they have had some good games that provided a glimmer of hope but you can bet Berube isn't drinking from the kool-aid anyymore. He knows what he has and what he does not have.

Hopefully Brad does too
