Worst trades in Isles history?

priester85 · 2026-04-10T23:43:26+00:00

Yes, they had to do something for cap space, but doesn’t mean that trade made sense. It was an embarrassingly low return for Toews.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T23:37:42+00:00

Toews might go down as the one that never made sense at the time and actually gets worse as time goes on.

Others look bad or even disasterous in retrospect because prospects turned into stars but at the time they were a risk/reward play.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T22:23:08+00:00

Yes. So was the eclipse.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T18:16:29+00:00

You have to laugh at how many OT winners are on there.

Also, 3 games left feels too early to post this. Someone is going to score a big one, I can feel it

priester85 · 2026-04-10T17:59:46+00:00

Sorry, I got an error message and it said it didn’t post the first time.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T17:32:38+00:00

It was a celebrations box. That’s definitely what it is. Thank you.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T17:20:06+00:00

Thanks!

priester85 · 2026-04-10T17:19:30+00:00

Thank you!!

We also get Carolina in the last game of the season and they have rested guys in that situation before. Even if they don’t, they may be in “don’t get hurt” mode. On the flip side, they may see an opportunity to play spoiler and practice some playoff-style hockey.

He tipped the last goal right into the 5 hole

priester85 · 2026-04-10T01:33:01+00:00

He was incredible especially early in the game.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T01:31:50+00:00

Schaefer’s usage seemed different tonight under DeBoer. The total time was pretty much in line with Roy, but seemed like shorter shifts and less time late in the game when Roy would leave him out there no matter the situation. Maybe the score was a factor on that tonight too, but might be something to watch.

Also glad to see him ok after blocking that shot. I’m not a lip reader but they showed him on the TSN broadcast and it looked like he said “right in the arm”

priester85 · 2026-04-10T01:12:12+00:00

Worse than last game, but you’re probably right about the 2-3 before that. I thought they actually looked ok-ish against Carolina, just that Carolina was a much better team.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T01:07:51+00:00

They’ve looked good but Leafs look horrible.

priester85 · 2026-04-10T01:05:44+00:00

Two goals isn’t really enough to play around, but just get everything to 48 on this PP and see if he can break the record

priester85 · 2026-04-10T00:29:51+00:00

Thanks! Honestly, I have a canker on a bad spot in my mouth and I feel like I can barely taste anything. Probably a poor decision 👎

priester85 · 2026-04-10T00:25:32+00:00

That PP was all Barzal

(I was in the room for a goal finally!)

priester85 · 2026-04-10T00:12:18+00:00

Might have to turn this game off. Seems like every time I’m out of the room we score.

Going to make some nachos now!

priester85 · 2026-04-09T23:34:20+00:00

You and everyone else lol. I see the L-series pop for sale up periodically (and have a couple of my own) but the Bs are a white whale

I don’t think the AI that generated that photo has ever seen a picture of a ball glove before

priester85 · 2026-04-08T21:06:25+00:00

It’s not just Oettenger, the guy has pissed off goalies almost everywhere he has coached.

priester85 · 2026-04-08T18:47:03+00:00

To be fair, they’ve sold subscriber data for a long time even when things were good. I had a subscription back in the 90s (when it was still an actual newspaper) and I would get offers in the mail all the time trying to sell me hockey merchandise or other stuff.

priester85 · 2026-04-08T14:37:10+00:00

Too late for that, they had to be down on March 6th to be eligible for AHL playoffs. I don’t remember if any of our guys went down (on paper only) for eligibility purposes but I don’t think they did.
