I hate to say it but Marleau is now completely washed up. He is now at point where he is hurting the team. HOFer or not every time Babs puts him on ice we are playing shorthanded by design. And Babs may be the last guy who is seeing it. Kinda of like the emperors new clothes. Oh well maybe Babs has to go down. Because it is his decision why we are playing shorthanded. Everyone one at Scotia was saying it yesterday. It was actually embarrassing on the bench as a couple people were screaming/begging Babs to sit him down and play Moore. We can complain about PK and PP and rightly so but no one can dispute what Babs is doing with Marleau. I think Marleau was even feeling it on the bench. I could be wrong but looking at him closely I think he knew the fans knew.
Gards is playing hurt. He could never pivot backwards to his left very well but it is even more noticeable now with the injury. He is borderline on whether he should be in the lineup. He is giving up the puck too much in his own end. I don't like dressing rookie's in general in playoffs but I think it is over anyways for Gards with Toronto either way.
Now for the big finale - Willy even though I love his skill he has proven again this playoffs he just does not have what it takes in terms of his will to fight and win. He has 1 more game left to keep his spot in Toronto. I would keep him but the powers that be are near the end with him. I am almost 100% sure that if he can't fight through and help team get past round 1 this year he will be moved for a defender in the summer.
I agree with that. My point was Willy on the 3rd line should be able to do so much more to help team on offense. Tavares is slow to begin with so it is everything he has got to contain Bergeron who is a top 3 centre on Team Canada. Remember Tavares shifts to wing on these teams because he is not as good. You have to expect Bergeron will beat Tavares. It is only a question of how big the difference is. And Marner on Marchand again Marchand is a top line winger on Team Canada. Marner probably not on team so again expect Bruins to win there too. And Hyman on Pasta while lets not go there. When you add it up our guys are doing amazing holding them down to where we are at.I'm not sure you're directing this at the right person. Nylander plays on the third line with subpar linemates at best while playing on the terrible 2pp unit. However given all that working against him he still has 1 point less than JT(who plays with Mitch the Magician Marner) as well as on the top PP. He also has a +/- (which isn't the best stat) that is 7 points worst than Nylanders (-4 vs 3). Maybe the first line center making 11M should be the guy leading the charge to get us past the first round, not the third line center?
I know JT is matched up against the Bergeron line but they've been getting destroyed as of late. Nylander's line at the end of the day is either matching our outplaying the opposition's third line. Tavares line is getting beaten down by most metrics by the Bergeron line. We need that line to be much better.
Don't disagree really, but if you want the third line to make a difference you have to give it the horses to make it happen. As the line is configured right now, you can only really expect defensive responsibility from it.I agree with that.

One guy was particularly loud in the Gilmour jersey and blue jeans maybe 10 rows up behind bench. But there was another guy I could not see him well in reds too. If you were at game then you could not miss it.
Pretty sure he meant Kadri retaliated after Marleau got hit into the turn buckle. That was the reason Kadri went after him and cross checked him in the face.Because of him we lost Kadri?

If you're a player or agent, he can indeed perform miracles.Next year will be a down year unless Dubas can pull some miracles.

Oh I know what he meant......was still nonsense.Pretty sure he meant Kadri retaliated after Marleau got hit into the turn buckle. That was the reason Kadri went after him and cross checked him in the face.
I guess your used to getting knocked down having a friend jump in to help you and you walking away. I can smell the p***y on your breathBecause of him we lost Kadri?

If he had the balls to stand up for himself Kadri wouldn't have to jump in. Real men know that
Hahahahahhahahawhat fictitious LW is everyone flabbergasted doesn't get more ice-time? LW is a huge weakness on this team and the better ones are already ahead of marleau (who played great in last year's playoffs btw)

This is the best bad-post. [Unless you’re a Bruins fan coming here to troll. Member since 2008 but I don’t see you around here at all really.]Babcock has Tyler Ennis on the pp. In the playoffs. He had an ahl callup on the pp last years playoffs. And again this year. There are rookies and ahl'ers in crucial roles all over the lineup and it's been like that for years. This "should" tip Leafs fans off that Babcock runs a meritocracy. Like more that probably any coach in hockey. Unfortunately he looks like a walking stereotype so fans are attacking that stereotype regardless he's about as close to the opposite as it gets.
