Everything includes nothing 😂
Stranger: the leafs are gonna win the cup i promise you
Me: did they get a new coach
Stranger: yes a coach who won a cup
Me: ok did they improve the defensive core
Stranger: i think so. They got a few decent bottem 4 defensemen
Me: ok now heres the real question. Did they change the core 4 or fire Brendan Shanahan
Stranger: uhhhhhh no
Me: you aint winning no cup and your out in the first round again this year now leave me alone
Only preview that matters let's go baby!
One thing I will say is it’s cheaper to get a scoring winger at the trade deadline rather than trying to trade for a top 4 d
Here it is
Love steve just says it like it is
Did toronto make big changes ummmm no they didnt same bs core 5 that cant get it done " at all" in the playoffs but lets resign them give them NMC and more $$ 🙂
Were not in this to sell jerseys guys ….were not
"I believe you picked them to win last year as well, and the year before….. and the year before that…." that is too real.
Can Cowan and Grebenkin do what Pacioretty and Lorentz offer?
You’re building yourself up to be let down by Anthony Stolarz.
Almost 20 min preview. I wonder why 🤔
The first round exit is going to hit so hard in May! Can’t wait!
Unfortunately i think that for leafs fans in general,the regular season will be irrelevant unless they bomb it. The playoffs is going to be the determining factor. The leafs always look good during the regular season,its the playoffs where the wheels fall off and the stars disappear.
Under and 5th.
Relying on a goalie who posted a .500 record and a career backup, neither of who played more than 30 games in a season is extremely delusional.
Expecting every player to take a step forward in goal scoring is also laughable. So is thinking Matthews and Nylander are going to show up every game after being paid. Giving the captaincy to a player that doesn’t put in 100% effort every night is also going to affect them.
Relying on two +33 year olds to play top 4 minutes, one injury prone, the other a defensive liability doesn’t mean your defence has improved.
Thinking that contract distractions, not just for Marner and Tavares, but for Knies, McCabe is going to affect their play. They know the organization can’t afford all of them, and watching. Nylander and Matthews take nights off is going to frustrate them.
Hey guys, great show as always. I was thinking that you might have missed an opportunity to take the day off. I think you could have done a very brief intro, and then just replayed the Season Preview from last year. The Leafs really haven't changed that much, so I don't think we'd have noticed…
This is possibly the worst run it back yet, we actually got worse and expect to still win lol.
Here we go
Leafs do not have a leader. The core 4 have skills but none of them are leaders. None of them are going to play the physical get in your face game and there is no other player on the team that could either. Leafs are built for the regular season. No cup this year and next year they will have more cap problems than this year. More of the same Leaf fans.
Tanev gets injured long term, McCabbe and Marner both get extended for way too much and the leafs miss the playoffs by 1 pt. Oh and Pittsburgh grabs the final playoff spot
adam literally picks the leafs to win every single year. His opinion means absolutely nothing
So Steve calls Oettinger injury prone, a guy who has been injured twice, the longest being a month, in his entire career. But he wavers at calling Woll injury prone, who has suffered twice as many injuries in a fraction of the time?
Solid point Steve, really flexing that vast hockey knowledge
Dewar could easily take Kampf’s role at a much smaller cap hit.
Reg season doesnt matter…. ONLY playoffs, why i waste my time and money on this garbage team I’ll never understand , the core is the failure and the core is still there….SOOOOOOO basically first round exit again
I have no faith in Woll and Tanev staying healthy. 🫡
I'm surprise you guy start the Atlantic with the Leafs…So let's get real, Knies, Woll and McMann development are the key to improving, cause it's the same god damn team as last year minus the unstable play of Samsonov…Plus a change of coach and added Tanev and Hakkanpa. Will it be enough ? Maybe, but that whole Marner situation might become poison if it's not solve. The Atlantic is so unstable it's kinda crazy…I put them second but that defense is full of question so ?!?
You don’t need to take 20 minutes to say, “first round exit.”
