Defense is a C at best. Toronto is a wild card team this year.
Hey, what's up with center postiton there? Tavares is slow, but okay as a 2C, I guess? Kampf and Gambrell at 3C-4C doesn't look great at all. And what's behind them, I'm just terrified. A+? I hope you are right. Hello from Siberia!
Let him go
HOW FAR does this Leafs team go in 2024? Let us know y’all!! 👀
So if you don't see the Leafs trading Nylander, how are they getting under the cap?
team defense in own zone?
for defense pairings, maybe Reilly – McCabe and Brodie – Klingberg?
Stay Delusional Leafs fans! More like Pretenders as opposed to Contenders! 🤣😆🤣😆
likely only need a player or two at trade deadline
No criticism, is that your radio? Or you normally speak that way?
I’m curious to see the different style of leafs team !
Definitely seems like they’ll be much harder to play against
Hope it leads to something good
Hot take – the leafs don’t make the playoffs. Seriously, as much hype there is regarding their offense game, their defense is a concern. Samsonov / Woll are not the types of goalies that can steal games like Carey Price.
Until Matthews, Marner and Nylander find that extra gear in the playoffs, this team will be never be a true Cup contender. Their supporting cast played very well last playoffs and all it got them was a round win against a heavily banged up Tampa team (Vasilevsky was playing probably his worst hockey in recent memory) and one measly win against Florida after that.
Season good. Playoffs bad. They play defensively good. But Florida d and forwards punished the leafs and teams with hits and toughness. Leafs don’t have that defensively.
I hope you didn't pay this guy for these.. like why this Autistic Captain.. sorry Assistant
Why isn't anyone talking about the fact that a move still needs to be made to get under the cap? Currently sit $2.9M over with muzzin/Murray on LTIR
At least if they don't trade Nylander they have their golf core fore-some for when they exit the playoffs early again!
6:47 What about Simon Benoit? Didn't he play with Klingberg in Anaheim?
..when the Leafs paid Mathews and Marner McDavid money they doomed them to mediocrity.
DREAM SCENARIO: leafs in comfortable playoff position come mid January 2024, one of Matthews, marner, Tavares, nylander or Reilly go down with an injury with projected 90 day recovery, leafs move 1st rounder/prospects for top 4D trade deadline rental, leafs stumble into playoffs but get there and are hungry, said injured player comes back for Rd1Gm1, leafs win 4 rounds of the playoffs, nylander and trade deadline rental walk into free agency for nothing.
Leafs squeak in at WC2, sweep their way to the cup.
Hockey!
Second round exit for the next 7 years
Guy Boucher (2009 QMJHL championship, 2011 & 2017 NHL Conference finals) & Mike Van Ryn (2019 Stanley Cup)
Really concerned about roberston .being small and just having a great shot isn't enough
I like this kid
Buffalo.
You forgot about Buffalo.
Your southern neighbors of the QEW.
This year the Leaf's is a maybe playoff team.
