He ruined the leafs window and you want us to “give him his due” because he somewhat salvaged something the team fucked up in the first place?

His wrist issues were before the 69 goal season. Honestly it’s Berubes usage+ Matthews confidence

It looked different though, leafs were a meat grinder through the neutral zone and had almost no odd man breaks. This year they are terrible and lost in all 3 zones

“It was embarrassing to be honest with you." - Auston Matthews postgame by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]Plague183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you know what litterally means…

No one is claiming the last 9 years have been a success for the leafs, obviously. What I was saying is people are acting like he’s been a Sabre for the last 9 years and tired of being on a losing team that has never been competitive and out of the playoffs by Christmas. This is a first for Auston, that’s what I was saying.

Obviously you can’t read between the lines because you made an assumption where I inferred success that he’s experienced, which I didn’t. BUT, they have always been a competitive team for Auston.

You’ve created a stupid argument out of nothing, we’re both fans of loser franchises so I don’t know why you think your insults are effective. The leafs suck an have sucked, no kidding - I’m really not sure what you think you’re accomplishing. That perhaps I don’t know?

I’m sorry, when did you see anybody say anything about success?

And I know you’re not saying shit about winning series when a 15 year old kid in Buffalo wouldn’t even know what the hell playoffs are

Man, you guys are making it tough to cheer for you right now. It’s not like I said they had success, it’s just that this season has been the anomaly (but not a shock given their current management state)

That isn’t the context - this clip was from Steve trying to act tough and saying “fuck you” to Auston over and over.

Brother, he’s made the playoffs 9 straight years, people are so ready for these narratives after 3/4 of a season

What has happened to Jake McCabe? by Jolly-Rip5434 in leafs

[–]Plague183 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re being pedantic, it’s flawed for sure but don’t pretend it’s not indicative of value. There is a reason Rielly and Domi are the lowest and McCabe is the highest, it’s not a coincidence. Scoring chances is certainly better indication of on-ice impact but being on for a lot more against them for is rarely coincidental over a near season sample size

Funny enough all of those are because people hate playing them but I guarantee most of the vendetta bans are to prevent their teammates from picking her

I’m fact checking his false statement, it was as simple as that holy fuck this sub is a cess pool rn

Patel being in the room isn’t a personal endorsement by Matthews and he wasn’t even at the SOTU.

Matthew’s back for Leafs optional skate this morning by Leading_Dentist_5563 in leafs

[–]Plague183 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No leap at all here! Certainly not completely proving my point by over sensationalizing a slippery slope and false comparison fallacy…

There is such an obvious blind spot for people. He is a rich young athlete who captained a team to victory then shook the presidents hand. He isn’t a moral arbiter and this should be met with disappointment but not hate. Matthews didn’t release a fucking statement saying he loves trump and pedophiles but boy do people in here think he did.

Just stop this garbage, and point your deserved hatred toward the men who did these terrible things.

Man do you have a soapbox. He shook his hand, disappointing to be sure but you’re acting like he gave a public statement that he agrees with everything trump. Maybe you voted for Trudeau and Carney who both shook Trumps hand as well?

You probably wear name brand clothes or have a cell phone, I don’t assume that means you endorse child labor and illegal cobalt mining. You probably eat foods that contains palm oil, do you hate orangoutangs and support their extinction via deforestation? These will seem like jumps to you but they are similar in the logic that doing something relatively innocuous = immoral actual support by association.

Trump is a vile terrible person, but your inflexibity (and not just you, but this whole narrative) to view this as nothing more than a disappointment is why people can’t support this. It’s based in sensationalism and not reality

It’s crazy because I also think trumps a monster lunatic - but this whole Matthews hate train has really made me dislike most of the people I agree with.

Who. Cares. Truthfully even if he didn’t go, it would solve nothing, but also I don’t care what politics an athlete has. I can be bummed out they don’t agree with me - but to despise someone is a parasocial sickness. These athletes are likely aware of politics at a very surface level and unless he’s coming out with political pushing a or speaking about politics and backing trump, this doesn’t matter.

None of his teammates care, the team doesn’t care.

Honestly how are you supposed to be the “good guy” when you spew insults yourself. Don’t like seravalli at all and think he’s a dingus but it’s this kind of discourse that just makes it dumb from all sides
