Only when referring to Leaf player or Leaf management!
That's not acceptable.
Leafs @ Canucks - Mar. 14th, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050
- Thread starter CarltonTheBear
- Start date
That's not acceptable.

I don't know if I can watch another season with this group of players. I know I say that every year (relax Deebo), but this is the first time I've been completely emotionless about it. From a pure entertainment standpoint, Leafs hockey is total garbage and only the players are to blame.

Is it just me or have they abandoned the whole playing as a 5 man unit ("the way good teams in the NHL play") in all three zones strategy they tried in Horachek's first 10 games?
It seems like a lot more blowing the zone and hoping for the Hollywood pass recently.

How did that result in off-setting penalties?? Dude wrestled a ref to the ice.

I hear ya. I probably watched a grand total of 6 games last year? I've watched more this year (mostly post Carlyle - maybe up to 15 games so far?), but only because I've been desperate for hockey - I miss watching good hockey.
If little changes happen this offseason, I'm probably gonna get HockeyStreams and start watching another team.

I honestly think they went into this hoping they'd be competitive. But they simply analysed the situation they were in and realized they were only scoring by cheating on defence, they had spent too much money, players weren't being professional enough, and even if they made the playoffs, they weren't going to go anywhere. So they out-lined what needed to be done. Now it's shape up, or ship-out... and try to drop as low in the standing as possible.

God, I wish they'd kept Stralman.

I believe he is a pending UFA.
He has 3 or 4 more games to hit 1000.
I'd be very surprised if he plays again after that game.
Although if they are really embracing the tank they might want to offer him a 3 year extension.

Nylander has two for the Marlies tonight.

Much better defensively for sure, Gardiner has a little more offensive flair though.
Stralman would be getting so much hype if he was playing for a Canadian team now.

I know we all joke about embracing the tank and they have to consider damage to trade value, but I don't understand why management, who must be apoplectic with rage, has not started sitting more guys, they have literally stopped trying, that's unacceptable for professionals.
