Is it a coincidence that every good team in the league follows the "fancy video game stat Geek" model of thinking? and NHL seasons aren't 68 games long, unfortunately.

I had this thought process of blasting into you, getting all mad and belligerent, and then I realized, whats the point. I don't know you, I don't really know what makes you tick, and at the end of the

I guess I'll disclaim this by saying I'm a huge Sundin fan. He's probably my favourite player of all time.   First: Nobody knows exactly what happened. The Leafs couldn't work out a trade with a pla

I usually try and go to at least one game in the California trip. I bought tickets for Thursday in San Jose. Last year we went to 3 San Jose, LA and Vegas...Will be going to Vegas again in February

 

The Kings game tomorrow is the cheapest..Starting at like $13 for up top....It doesnt look like I can go though.

 

Anaheim is an option for Friday night, if we can pull it off...San Jose is the easiest drive and I love the rink there.

 

GO LEAFS GO

 

Wow that’s cheap. I got the dec 4 tickets in buffalo. 6 of us going. We paid $150 each for 12th row where the Leafs shoot twice

 

Next trip might be Columbus dec 29 or the raptors in Detroit in March (they play twice)

I am warning the Leaf fans, I am on a 3 game losing streak going to games. This follows a very long winning streak of like 4-5...So lets hope we change the streak Thursday.

Raptors are 12-2 this year and I'm 0-2 when watching the games.

 

This is the Toronto Maple Leafs thread..A thread about a real sports team and a REAL sport..Basketball is not fitting into this category. Its a season that is waste of time and formality. The winner has been determined and the championship will be presented to the Golden State Warriors..

 

GO LEAFS GO

The fans and the media are literally insane , or just stirring up bs..Our good friend Damien Cox, maybe utilizing the new Marijuana laws is suggesting the Leafs trade Auston Matthews..

 

Some of the Nylander proposals are pretty nutty too...

 

Lets see what happens.

How is this for a bizarre trade that would never happen:

 

William Nylander to the Sharks

for

Erik Karlsson and Kevin Labanc

 

EK hasnt been fitting in well with the Sharks yet..Top 2 dman in San Jose are right handed..Reilly and EK on the PP would be awesome on the point.

Article by Pierre Lebrun today makes the point that Dec 1 isnt really the deadline to trade Nylander. While he cant play in the NHL after Dec 1st, the Leafs can still trade him to a non contender for assets up to February 25.

 

Either way we are winning games without two major assets right now, which is a huge plus.

Great night last night in San Jose. We were part of a pretty strong Leafs fan group. Seems like everywhere we travel is like that.

 

San Jose is a great rink to watch a game. Its made for hockey. I have been to LA as well and I dont like it. The fans are always nice to us and its very friendly. Not like those pieces of shits in Ottawa who can all go eat a dick cheese vegan pizza.

 

Kids had a blast.

 

- Kapanen is awesome, speed is tough to beat.

 

- Freddie saved our butt most of the game, way too many chances we gave up.

 

- Karlsson and Burns arent very good together. On paper you would think they would be but sloppy.

 

- Nazem Kadri is hated.

 

Team has so many weapons even without Matthews and Nylander.

 

Tonight will be a very tough spot. 3rd game in 4 nights in California. Sparks with the start. If we win it would be pretty cool.

If Nylander were worth EK and Labanc then he'd be worth the money he wants.

Historically first games like this after a long trip doesnt bode well..Especially against a very good and hot Columbus team.

 

Should be a good test..

 

12 days till Dec 1

I think he is worth more IMO..Only based on the fact of the contract situation. The Leafs have Nylander under control for a few years, EK is a free agent.

Dave, are we ok with Babcock now?

 

I have a feeling you feel they are winning DESPITE him?

 

Yes I still think the team is playing too conservatively and our possession numbers should be better

Possibly but just enjoy the games as played..Its pretty exciting. A game we probably should of lost last night we won on pure skill and talent last night against a very very good team.

 

Without Matthews and Nylander(or whomever will replace that roster spot) is pretty impressive. The game i was at live , the Leafs were throughly outplayed , outshot but Freddie stole a game and the skill took over when it needed to..Winning the close games, when we would lose the close ones in the Kessel, JVR, Phaneuf, Bozak era..( i know I defended Burke and the roster back then)..Its night and day.
