Question for leafs fan.....

Is it quiet enough to hear the whole nation laughing at you?

4/7 Canadian teams are outside the playoffs right now. None of the 3 in the playoffs are what you'd call locks.

The fuck is anybody laughing at lol

I will say that there was obviously a lot of fanfare when Babcock came in, and people may have thought it was an overreaction from Leaf fans but holy shit did you see the 4 guys who preceded him?

He did a lot of good, he laid down a great foundation in a season where they finished dead last (and that may be the only time in history a sentence like that ever makes sense) and the road back to the playoffs was accelerated with his help. At the same time, you expect some blow back from your players but if Mirtle's source is correct that's almost impossible to make work in this day and age.



Combine that with the constant calling out of his GM in the media and his inflexibility with his lineup there wasn't much room for this to right itself.

With Kerfoot coming back, maybe put him on the wing and leave Spezza at 3C? He’s the only guy playing for this team right now apparently.

Hi, I now coach the Leafs.


/why is Rielly still with fucking Ceci though

One word can make a world of difference

One word can make a world of difference

Thanks for clearing that up

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Flip it and it’s true, at least in terms of Rielly’s performance this year.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

(Yes I know Rielly wasn’t on when he scored lol)

Lost a lot of respect for the players last night.

Lost a lot of respect for the players last night.

Players shoulder a hell of a lot of blame but it's pretty hard to ignore that in one game Keefe had them do almost everything everybody was telling Babcock to get them to do and it worked to a T.

And there's of course players who can say "well, if only I had been given the ice time...". You know, grinder guys like...



And that was without any power plays.

Man, not only are the Leafs throwing Babs under the bus, they're throwing the bus in reverse and backing it up over him

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

I want more Spezza.

This is why:

This is why:

While I don't mind more Spezza I think that says more about the other two. Tavares looked older than me in the intermission interview last night, I hope he gets things sorted out.

I'm just saying if Spezza gets anywhere near 50 pts I'll be happy as a pig in shit.

Does it mean I won't have to watch Gauthier? That's what I'm focused on. Dude is basically a less effective 6'5" Jay McClement.

Keefe's Leafs are looking good tonight.
