SABRES 0311 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Well I’m sure the team/league will rally around the family. I saw it mentioned on another site so I don’t know how it happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Insensitive hockey post: It's been relatively quiet about the Leafs everywhere recently, and I saw Matthews is out again. So I took a chance to peak at the top of the standings in the hope that they've been sliding. Best team in the league in the last ten games, and 5th in the NHL overall. They aren't even getting fanfare and they're a legitimate cup contender already. Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Imagine when they acquire one of McDonagh/Doughty/Karlsson in the next couple years. And their prospect pool is still full of good, fast, smart players. We're going to have two Tampas in our division literally starting yesterday. Something, something,..complete teardown needed, something.... Meanwhile, "Starting today..." Perfect.

Not sure where you're going with this, but they drafted in the top-10 like a bazillion times to get this foundation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Where is Dudacek to tell us regression was inevitable? :P Even when they had a slump earlier this year when i was still following, and their offensive numbers were suppressed, it was still a bad thing for us because Babs was teaching them how to actually play defense - the sacrifice during the middle of this season and of some gaudy numbers for Matthews will ultimately pay dividends when they're in the playoffs going forward IMO. ----------------------- I would totally claim Jussi Jokinen, no way he's worse than Nolan, and I'd like some bodies that let us keep guys in Rochester.

dudacek Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Gionta would rather make a Stanley Cup run than a Calder Cup run? Nash and Chara needed a third for their lawn bowling team? Edited February 25, 2018 by Mick O’Manly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Not sure where you're going with this, but they drafted in the top-10 like a bazillion times to get this foundation. They didn't eliminate their entire NHL worthy roster to get that lottery eligible position so they had an actual core when Austin arrived. And it shows today. Fer cryin out loud, I'm tryin to eat my lunch and post this at the sme time. I wiped it out and had to start over 3x. Almost said F it. I really don't want to hate Gio....

And I’d rather have a Hedman in his prime than an overpaid and declining Karlsson or Doughty, if they even get one of them. Toronto is/will be a great team. But Tampa quality is not guaranteed.

As of now, "Tampa quality" isn't too ludicrous - 5 playoff series wins in 4 years, right? No cups. I'd bet every cent I have that this Toronto core will at least match that during some stretch in the immediate future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though Pittsburgh may have other ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any interest 12 put on waivers last day to do so.https://t.co/AA8a8FtkIs?amp=1 Chris Stewart may be a suitable replacement as a tough-playing winger once Evander is gone, although they don't play the same side.
