GDT: Leafs @ Vancouver 7:00pm EST - Fuck the Canucks

When the big boys don't show up this team doesn't stand a chance. I think by now we've learned that Alex Kerfoot is not going to save the day.

They've all had fabulous seasons but sometimes you need your depth to pick your studs up when they go quiet. This team doesn't have much in the way of offensive depth so that's not gonna happen.
 
Fire Keefe AND Dubas

This is where I am without a deeep playoff run. Just winning a round isn't enough. They've had a bunch of years to win a fucking round. The goal is to win a cup or at least show me a cup winning team if I squint a bit. This aint it.

"We can and we will" was never about praying that 4 guys were going to score enough to drag us to a cup. It was about "we're smart enough to find good hockey players for cheap that will supplement the 4 stars up front". Big wet fart on that one so far.

The stars had a shit night, no argument there. But we're not supposed to look dogshit everytime they're off and we do.

I don't think a long playoff would even prove dubas or Keefe right. We know they're good enough to win more than one round. Doesn't mean dubas didn't fuck up. Doesn't mean the leafs are better with Schenn than Liljegren. They can win in spite of these things. Dubas is replaceable and obviously you can't fire him if they go on a deep run but I wouldn't cry if he left. He's basically Brian Burke with glasses. He built this team with that stupid top six bottom six gudpro philosophy.

If ever a team should give Denis Savard another chance
 
I can’t figure out how with the limited space they have to allocate to forwards they’ve kept kerfoot around as their 5th highest paid forward. 3.5m for a 30 point no d 5’10 unphysical winger is mental.
 
Dom's nerdcards:

1. Liljegren 2.6
2. Giordano 2.4
(Gustafsson 2.4) - big PP component here
3. Sandin 2.2
4. Rielly 2.1
5. Brodie 1.6
(McCabe 1.1)
6. Holl 0.6
(Schenn 0.0)

Funny how the Bruins upgrades all happened to also be upgrades by Dom's nerdcards, the same ones that told us the Bruins were elite elite heading into the year.

It's a mistake that keeps compounding too. We've had so many opportunites to punt on him and get decent replacements on the cheap.
