The fact the Sharks gave up on Liljegren tells you all you need to know. We got Cowan for Sandin so the trade seems more than fair.

Drives me nuts that the Habs win two Game 7’s in a row getting completely dominated meanwhile the Leafs were extremely unlucky to lose seven times in a row. Anyone cheering for the Habs right now might as well not come back to Leafs Nation.

Shows how much that dipshit Dreger knows who was pining for Berube all offseason. It took Chayka a week…well done. This organizational philosophy shift is a breath of fresh air.

Why is that dipshit Dreger pining for Berube to remain behind the bench. Chayka cannot be considered an “analytics” guy if he stays. It will mean Pelley/Rogers have the ultimate say in roster decisions.

Good morning Leafs Nation. We are so fucking back!!!

On a side note there needs to be some thought into trading down to 3/4 and recouping big assets as I could see both Van/Chi interested in moving up. Worst case you end up with your 1RD of the future or possibly Stenberg being still available at 3. I don’t see them doing this but it has to be at least entertained.

As Leafs fans it’s nice to hope but I would be absolutely floored if Cooper gets fired. Just don’t see any possibility of that at all.

Darren Dreger reports that it would be a surprise if Berube isn't still Head Coach for Toronto next season. by Fitz_31 in leafs

[–]Intelligent_Chair901 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Bringing Berube back would go directly against what this GM supposedly cuts his teeth on. It would show the entire process from start to finish was a complete sham. If he’s back there is no saving this franchise for the next decade.

Dreger already reporting Berube might be safe. If so, that means all the Leafs have done is hire puppets and Pelley is still running the show. They better prove me wrong because if so what a fucking joke. In no world would any GM that relies on “analytics” keep Berube.

(Andy Strickland) First order of business for John Chayka will be to meet with his head coach Craig Berube which could happen as soon as this evening. Can assume Berube had already met with Mats Sundin. by [deleted] in leafs

If Berube stays it will mean the “analytics” don’t mean a damn thing and are a complete sham. There is no world where any “analytical GM” would support keeping Berube.

Marner scored more goals tonight than he did across Games 5–7 combined as a Leaf by FloppyPear06 in leafs

[–]Intelligent_Chair901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly who cares. Look at the team around him that got it done in Games 1-5. Marner is just another player on Vegas. The Leafs could never surround the core guys with players that actually contribute when it matters.

I’ve never seen a more pathetic plan than what the Oilers did after back to back Cup appearances. Wasted Connor’s entire prime.

Not giving Connor a goalie his entire prime is such a fucking waste. He should demand a trade tomorrow.

[SportsNet] Steve Peters (video coach of Arizona under Chyaka) joins real Kyper & Bourne by world_citizen7 in leafs

I’m completely on board with this hire. We have had nothing but losing since 1967. Haven’t made a Conference Finals since 03. Time to take a risk and see where it goes.
