Yeah I’m questioning a lot right now. On paper CBJ was the more winnable game, why not give Jones tonight and Samsonov Saturday vs Carolina? There’s no jump start coming here. If they lose tomorrow night that’s a brutal decision.

EVERYTHING seems like a brutal decision right now. Any doubt what was going to happen tonight?
How do you leave a sieve like that in for that long? It felt brutally obvious that we were going to lose that game. Oh well, at least we got another point I guess.

Strarting to feel like I was way more open to disappointment when our World was more normal, but nowadays, I just feel like tuning out of this shit. Doesn't feel worth it anymore, and I have been watching for 40+ years.

Just realized there’s a good chance the Leafs are outside the playoff picture by the end of the weekend.

Makes this all that much worse. I did not think Sammy would be this fucking bad.

Thank god Sammy was on tonight and was able to steal us a point. Hope he gets the start tomorrow but Keefe is too stubborn to go with the hot goalie two nights in a row.

I keep seeing speculation that the Leafs should trade for Saros. I am not convinced Trotz is ready to considea it yet, but the day is coming. Soon. Don’t buy the narrative that NSH is in the playoff hunt so they WONT trade Saros. Trotz knows the ceiling on his roster is a WC team and that isn’t good enough.

NSH needs a true #1 C. And more scoring on the wing. So the Nylander for Saros rumo(u)r makes some sense. If Tre doesn’t think he can sigh Willy……..there could be a deal based on this. NSH can easily pay Willy on his next contract.

Saros for Minten and a first? not going to happen. NSH doesn’t need more picks. And TOR will need to juggle cap space to get Saros in this year.

I’ve seen Kampf make like 3 defensive mistakes in 3 years. I’ve seen Marner make 3 in the last two weeks, Rielly had 3 pts last night and was a -4 and yet…

Losing to the Canes sucks but losing to the Pistons should get you relegated.

Brutal. And they start the new year with a California swing, games versus the Avs and Isles then a Western Canada swing.

The 18 wheeler is veering toward the cliff.

Meh, Raps traded a quarter of their team this morning and the replacements weren’t with the team yet.

It was an easy bet to win even if I was too soft to take it on the ML (Raptors -3.5 was still crazy good). Detroit almost pulled it off against Boston a few nights ago and they’re top of the league.

Haven't watched enough leaf games to notice, but this seems like a thing

It’s fine that Hildebeast is called up but I hope he doesn’t play a game and they get some outside help ASAP. He needs more AHL time.

Ahhh yes, doubling down on utter mediocrity.


Whatever it is it’ll have sticker shock but I’m at the point where I’m fine with this so long as it doesn’t also result in keeping Marner and maybe even leads to him being moved this summer.

/FWIW Kypreos said it was around $11 mil. Worth mentioning since he may actually be right about something for once.

Leafs probably deserved the two points by why does the league even have refs anymore? They are as useful as tits on a bull.
