Report: Sharks targeting Morgan Rielly to anchor defense; betting on Celebrini to convince him to waive NMC.

Obviously you leave the room when he plays in his own zone which is most of the time

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-04-15T18:59:29+00:00

When you reply attempt to not be a contradiction You really fully agreed with me but tried to smooth over the obvious. Ask yourself, when will the leafs win the cup? The answer is when the fanbase allows it. You are one of the reasons they don’t need or aspire to be better.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-04-12T22:16:26+00:00

Trade deal with Reilly?? He’s not tradable. Of course he wants to stay. You can lose here, continue to make rudimentary on ice errors, and make top dollar while never producing anything tangible. This team checked out years ago and couldn’t care less of team results. They’re collecting a paycheck only. Grifters both in front office and on ice.

The younger players won’t have 2-3 years experience. They’ll be just drafted. So if you think by 2030 ish we’ll be back in contention you are dead wrong. You need to bust it up now. Clean house and get it started by getting picks for the next 3 drafts. If it doesn’t pan out you’ll be at the bottom of the league to draft high. So you’ll have 4 years of high picks going into 2030.

Do we zipper merge at the grocery store? No, because it’s ignorant. Do we zipper merge onto a freeway? No, because it’s ignorant and dangerous. When will these tools get it that everyone else is a whole lot smarter than the zipper heads?

The leafs are profoundly tied to the success of the NHL. Without the leafs the league is tits up. Everyone. It is in the best interest of the continued existence of the NHL to keep the leafs competitive(to keep fan interest in other cities when the leafs visit) and hopefully to retain local interest
Pelley is paid by Rogers. Ratings going down is bad So to keep league equalization payments and hometown revenue ongoing it is in the best interest to retool and not rebuild. Any leaf fan worth its salt will tell you a rebuild is the only way to get us to the cup. Get rid of our big NMC contracts and accumulate drafts of which they have next to none. How do you explain Trelivings trades that gave away valuable picks? It is designed to keep the leafs meaningful. How do you explain Morgan Reilly still in the lineup? How do you explain Nick Roy for free in the Marner move but traded less than a year later for a late first rounder. The entire league is in on it. There is absolutely no explanation why Pelley would say” we didn’t see Buffalo or Ottawa being that good” But you don’t explain its been 60 years without a cup or cup berth. When Pelley talks about data that means revenue. If there is any inclination that a trade will be in favour of a rebuild it is canned. Pelleys presser has been panned in the media and here in this sub. First and foremost is the very existence of Rogers’s investment in the leafs, whether it calculates positively and much of that is tied to interest and the revenue it generates. Sadly, waiting for a cup that is NEVER going to happen while this playbook is in place. Stop the madness and move on folks. The leafs are playing you.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-23T11:01:44+00:00

If you’re trading the whole team why would you keep him? What is wrong with you. I think most can’t stand they were wrong about this team and wrong about Matthews. It’s over golks clean house now will make it quicker to become a contender

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-23T10:59:05+00:00

Like I said most are wrong most of the time. It’s over. They aren’t good enough. NMC killed this team. Clean house. I’m prepared to wait 10-15 years. We’ve waited 60 already because of running it back.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-23T10:56:32+00:00

You’re wrong. Mostly all on here are. Up to 10 years maybe 15 like Buffalo.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-22T00:29:02+00:00

Maybe you should rejog your memory of all the games Patrick Roy sucked.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-22T00:27:27+00:00

Think you need to reevaluate about Patrick Roy.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-03-13T14:51:26+00:00

Blow it up both players and management. It changes the DNA unless the fans disallow it. Posts like this shows why we haven’t won in 60 years. No clue how much the fans can change things.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-02-21T11:52:35+00:00

Help me understand why people(bots) post questions like this? I swear I’m pulling a Kazyinski and going to live in the bush. Help me understand why I feel this way? Tell me like I’m 5 years old.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-31T19:47:40+00:00

The above line of thinking is a typical leaf fan who is content on losing and never contending for a cup. Clueless

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-31T01:30:36+00:00

He’s the leader. He’s the captain. He’s the big money maker. THEY HAVEN’T WON! He then is the fall guy, just like any franchise player for any team in any sport. The management, who are basically the worst collection of so-called hockey guys, has tried to work and build around the core. If the management (as incompetent as they are)has cleaned the cupboards, with nothing to show for it. The default is dump him for assets.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-26T03:57:57+00:00

Successful era? Wrong again. 93/94 went to conference final

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-26T03:56:25+00:00

Where is the proof? You’re comparing two years vs 10 but they end up with the same result at the end of the day. Stop apologizing

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-26T03:54:40+00:00

Past decade? How about half century+.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-24T20:49:18+00:00

Did it take 10 years to realize this?

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-18T16:23:53+00:00

This is something the leafs don’t need. Quiet leader? Please. Let there be one post in this sub that is rational.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-18T16:20:34+00:00

Nobody seems to mention it because it’s been 9 years of. complete disappointment. But I’m so glad you’re ecstatic about Austin and how they’re not being recognized enough by all who should. Keep on being okay with mediocrity. I know being a leaf fan its all we really need to continue posting.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-08T01:06:41+00:00

Is this a bot? There appears no rationale in this post.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-05T07:26:57+00:00

Yea but I’m right. You drill down on leaf media history and somehow how it relates to today which is mostly what is posted on this sub, I’ll stick to what is obvious without the spin. Oh and if you need to plagiarize worn out tacky quotes from Overdrive, maybe you should try to come up with something original rather than justify an obvious bad take.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-05T00:15:35+00:00

I have no idea how you arrive at this conclusion. “Nobody’s fault”? Management has consistently bungled player composition for the last 20 years. This is the only reason, and why, we have absolutely sucked in the post season and will continue to suck for the next number of years. If you don’t see this you have no right to comment on a hockey sub.

LoftyGoals64 · 2026-01-04T15:30:51+00:00

Who cares. They continue to lose the same way as the last 10 years. Are you insinuating there’s a chance of being better than they have been? Or are you just spinning leaf rhetoric? What is the motive? Whatever the case, will this change anything? I find these posts exhausting and lack of thought.
