Hope everyone has a great week šš»
You guys seriously better hope Stolarz is back soon!
Nothing wrong with the Leafs. Itās the refs that need to be fixed. Or should I say Gary Bettman š®
Another issue is that because the Leafs have such a huge target on them, every team they play against just naturally gets up for the game. Every opponent is playing game 7 of the Stanley Cup. Thatās a hard thing to play against EVERY GAME.
No one gets up the same way to a game in Columbus or San Jose in December. Itās something that the Leafs have to learn to play against but itās not something that other teams have to deal with in the same way.
Just saying.
Does this guy even breathe?
Damn I thought we were in 1st place, my bad we're last. Sounds so ridiculous to listen to this with that reality in mind. On no, they're playing a little off in a 82 game season after ripping it up, that never happens!
I disagree J.D. I believe this 3rd line will work. Robertson is better than the guys that are sitting.
I think that McMann as a scorer on a young third line, what they need is Grebenkin on the fourth line to give them a range of styles of play to stretch opponents with lines that have elite players, lines with energy and a line that is brutal. Lol
Swap 11 and 16
There is a type of player that they do not have. They need Grebenkin up, guys with edge. Bunting was good for that.
Only in Toronto can you be in first place, nearly halfway to clinching a playoff spot before Christmas and the pundits are talking about āproblemsā š¤¦āāļø
What a crap negative conversation is if you guys could do so much better
as#
So so so annoying god!
Let's just make it through the season healthy these guys just come off a pile of injuries give me a break takes a while to get back to where they were
Typical Toronto media meat market. You have a great team , one of the best, and your media still slams them. How aboutā¦what a great team, what a bunch of snipers. Great goaltending great chemistry. Nope..āwhatās wrong with the Leafsā shake my head.
JD you're not always this negative you've got some good things to say sometimes please don't have this moron on again
There's not a lot of leaf content to listen to please please do better JD that conversation with Craig Simpson was super super awesome dude …..more like that dude
i went away on vacation and i come back and all the headlines are whatās wrong with the leafsā¦ they won like 2 or 3 games while i was away and theyāre first in the atlantic by both raw points and points percentageā¦ what is going on
And another thing Anthony! When Florida went to the finales couple years ago and started playing that style they wouldn't have even made the playoffs if Chicago wouldn't have beaten Pittsburgh in the last game…
We should not pull Benoit from the line up. He's been great out there and adds the physical presence.
This topic is absurd.
Leafs are first in the Atlantic. On pace for 100+ points. Have the best goalie tandem. The media is the problem.
