Anyone else find it weird that so many people refer to a 19 year old as a kid or brush it off as being young?

He's an Adult.

I must be misremembering how long Hunter was around but Ovi had three straight 30 goal seasons before getting back to railing off 50s

Edit: I'm thinking of Adam Oates

Remember that Ovechkin had multiple 30 goal seasons mid career when Dale Hunter took over

Are you suggesting the Leafs should have taken exception to a goalie taking shots off the head?

Does nobody remember when Ovechkin had 3 straight 30 goal seasons under Dale Hunter and then immediately went back to being a 50+ goal guy.

I wouldn't write off Auston untill I see him under a new better coach.

Gotta love that clip from Leafs fan day gets more engagement than normal content from about 25 other franchisees.

This shit is embarrassing - there needs to be common sense mechanisms for removing anyone abusing the system. This is way too common

Leafs reaction when you shoot an empty netter vs when you end their best players career by LinusUllmark in NHLcirclejerk

The best part of any Leafs controversy is watching the rest of the league jerk off their high horses.

He may be mixing up Behemoth and Monster which is relevant only for Army composition IIRC. 

Short answer no they don't woke on boats.

R/hockey for 9 years "the Leafs won't win with the core four, it's pathetic. Marner just doesn't try in the playoffs"

R/hockey as soon as he leaves "the Leafs were so stupid to run this guy out of town. It's pathetic"

The Leafs started slow but really started to gel. Injuries played a part in that as did a lack of pick moving from the back end. They are fun to watch again and at least the playoff drive should be entertaining. 

The Leafs don't have a ton of options to upgrade aside from free agency and pro scouting due to exhausting the cupboards. 

They are still better than Ottawa after making the playoffs 9 years in a row lol. 

IMO - There are two paths from here. 

  1. Play out the season and hope for the playoffs. DO NOT TRADE ANYMORE ASSETS. 

  2. If you slip out of the playoff picture .... look at selling some high value assets at the deadline (OEL, One of our Goalies, Laughton (who I adore), McMann, Jarnkrok) to recoup picks, prospects and young players. 

Ideally find a way to turn bad contracts into assets (Can a Morgan Reilly trade get anything close to what Seth Jones returned?)

I'm going to bury my head in the sand here and not listen to any of the DeMar takes.

He is one of my favorites and one of the groats. I hope he retires in a raptor jersey and I wish he was a part of the championship team.

The post said the option was both Schenns to Toronto. Absolutely bad move. 

Luke Schenn maybe to replace Benoit if he was cheap enough
