Do you agree with Colby Armstrong's assessment of the Leafs? ๐ค
Hard to add when you have little cap space
Boston-Toronto: The battle to see who loses to Florida.
Toronto's D will look different at playoff time. Leafs in 7.
people just be sleeping on the Canucks. most goals this season and consistently beating top teams.
Can't believe he said the Rangers have the best defensive core in the same sentence as mentioning Carolina, who literally has the best defense
The year before Dubas took over the Leafs looked pretty damn good. They had young budding stars. They had secondary players, they had a bit of toughness, they had lots of draft pics.
Everyone knew the Leafs needed a number 1 D at this point and there was lots of cap available. Nope, Dubas goes out and gets rid of an affordable Leaf loving second line center for peanuts and brings in a guy at twice the price to replace him. Dubas set the standard for what the budding stars would consider their worth and Dubas gave them everything they wanted.
Here we are…it's a continual extension year after year of this. No lessons were ever learned by the young guys and now they are a bunch of premadonnas who put up points in the regular season and work on their Golf games every year after their early exits.
Dubas left and Treliving came in to a sh*tshow. Nothing in the cupboards and draft capital spent several years ahead.
Think that is bad? Well, it certainly seems with the massive new contracts for Matthews/Nylander that nothing will change. Leafs seem to have married themselves to the same core for years to come. Cap wise handcuffing themselves with massive cap hits for some scoring and nothing else. NO balance, No Defense, No secondary scoring, No team toughness, No quality goaltending. Just no no no …
It's not fair to the fans who buy tickets and merch when a group of vastly overpaid multi millionaires don't leave their left lung on the ice every single game .
What a pity…
Shanahan needs to go pronto.
And to think, Armstrong didn't just get twice the points biz did, he got 15 times the points!

The Leafs have been frauds since salary caps were introduced. Losers since 1967
Leafs need a goalie,didnโt happen.
Leafs in 5 !!! LMFAO !
I have said for 5 years that the Leafs lack grit and character. Why Nylander is still a Leafs is beyond me. He has offensive skills and he's signed for 8 years. He will perhaps never be worth more than he is now. They need to shake up. The core it isn't working. My concern is that Treliving is a Calgary retread who never made it past the second round.
Delusional panel thinking leafs have any chance against boston. Jesus show some professionalism and tone down the bias.
I mean, heโs right
Leafs fan all my life. I was 16 years old back in 67. I have zero faith for playoff success.
What? Florida is tearing up the league!! How can you not mention them along with Colorado. Heโs right about Toronto though ๐
56 years without a Stanley Cup championship and still, the bought-and-paid-for media shows its arrogance. As a sports bettor with a profit of 47% over three years, I can honestly say, put the pipe down.
Yeah, hearing that assessment from two ultra superstar NHL hockey gods like Armstrong and Bissonette is real convincing, not !
I will say they were both better playing hockey then they are as analysts, and that is not meant as a positive statement other hockey skills. SMH
Leafs are the biggest frauds did nothing today let's wait for Easton Cowen and Minton maybe they will draft a Martin Brodeur with that first rounder
Pittsburgh is DONE
Colorado and Florida in the finals? That's my pick.
๐Colby, I actually have your Leaf's jersey from when you played for the Leafs… please don't say $h!t that would make me want to take it outside and burn it. ๐คจ
Leafs in FIVE vs the Bruins in the playoffs? Biz been smokin something deep…
Colorado ,Dallas. Florida,Carolina
Winnipeg Tampa Bay
YOU TELL HIM BIZ!!
Biz canโt actually think the leafs are a legitimate Stanley Cup contender right?
They couldnโt handle Boston pre-deadline, theyโll get bounced early again this year.
Leafs skate circles. Around Colorado Florida tho thatโs another story
Heres my prediction its gonna be vegas and florida.
The leafs cant believe they have a chance with this team we need a gm that cares what product their putting on the ice not good enough.
Boston got way better than the leafs their gonna get killed half of them cant even keep up to boston.
Colby W
Leafs blow
LMAO โdidnโt you watch the game last nightโ
โฆโฆโฆ..โthey lost?โ
As a Canucks fan, Florida looks scary AF
Took the Leafs TWELVE MINUTES before registering their first shot on goal against the Bruins last night. With that kinda of"talent" up front, makes you shake your head. High priced pushovers.
I feel for all the Leafs fans.
Imagine their organization thinking they are the center of their own universe? The only problem is the other planets are circling around them ๐.
Leafs fans deserve so much more.
Whats fraudulent is why the guy in purple is on here.
frauds? they have no cap space. have no picks….. all the rumours where never going to happen. the media stories are all fake. they had no chance on anyone
Nice game notes bump
