    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    I doubt they'll sell either. The board are probably are still hoping to count playoff money ... If Treliving remains, he has no choice but to trade assets to try to improve their fortunes. He can't go to the MLSE board and say "I want to rebuild the DNA on this team ..." His only choice to...

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    By the time the rebuilding team is starting to turn it around, a 28 year old is into his 30s. Knies (23), Cowan (20), Robertson (24) & Maccelli (25) are the only forwards under 28 Benoit (27), Thrun (24, Rifai (27) are the only dmen under 28 Woll (27), Hildeby (24) Pick out of that group which...

    That's true - flawed for the talent they had ... But it feels like they've given up or quit on him - regardless of system issues. I'm not too keen that. If I found out that was so, I wouldn't just nail the coach. More of this is on GM DNA who put this mess together.

    Capitals vs. Leafs - Dec. 18th, 7:00pm - SN

    What's Don Granato doing? He coached Auston in the USHL (kidding ..) Seems evident that they need to try a new coach - they have nothing to lose except more games. Hard to credibly assess without being in the room but from the outside, I didn't mind Berube. I thought the players should have...

    Yep Like Quinn Hughes, they'll know well in advance that Matthews is not returning. Why would Matthews hang around for a rebuild? The clock is ticking on his career. If they wait, maybe Treliving can get a 3/4th line center for him ... If they move him this season, they'd probably get much more...

    Stating the obvious: Stecher's done a heck of a job for a waiver wire pickup dropped into this situation. I've liked Robertson's and Cowan's efforts. I'd make PP2 PP1 to send a message to PP1 whether their hands are cupped to their ears or not. Leafs are on pace for 18 shots I wonder if...

    Matthews current .85 ppg is the second lowest of his career. He was .84 ppg in his rookie season ... (puts cupped hand up to my right ear ...)

    Domi is a team worst -12 Tavares and Nylander got off to a good start this season - why not try them together again? (maybe I've forgotten why they would be split aside from defensive issues ...) Knies-Matthews-_______ _____-Tavares-Nylander Joshua-Roy-McMann Lorentz-Laughton-Cowan To me...

    Blackhawks @ Leafs - Dec. 16th, 7:00pm - TSN4

    That would depend on his medical condition - which only the team and Matthews knows. If he is as good as he is going to get and prone to something more, I might try to salvage what I could now for example though they have to reveal his medical when/if they trade him ... I'm not a big fan of...

    Blackhawks @ Leafs - Dec. 16th, 7:00pm - TSN4

    I asked the screen displaying that "R U tone deaf and oblivious to how poorly the team has played?" It appears that our Captain is. As for Berube's PC, that struck me as a coach who is getting on thin ice with his players. We saw him yelling on the bench. He chewed the leadership out recently...

    Blackhawks @ Leafs - Dec. 16th, 7:00pm - TSN4

    That was getting so ugly, I'm relieved for them. Always hoping for the best. But the objective is to have a parade at the end of the season. Anything can happen in sports. I thought they were better than what they've shown. Odds makers still give them a 1% chance to win it all. I just can't see...
