No Excuses No Limits! The mother fucking goddamn season thread




Stop fucking trading first round picks for 30+ year old rental players. For fuck’s sake. Aim higher, for younger better players with years of control, or keep the picks use them.

Maybe if Dubas hadn’t spent the last several years spraying a firehose of these picks down the drain for these kind of players in a desperate attempt to win now, some of the guys we could’ve drafted & developed with those picks would be giving us the depth scoring we entirely lack at the moment.
 
yeah, no thanks to Tanev. don't really care the cost. we need puck movers.

I'd be more interested in Hanifin.

Weegar would still be my top choice from Calgary though.
 
He wouldn’t if any other team traded him but because leafs… that is what will happen.

I do think that for whatever reason he had a few tough edges that he just hasn’t been able to work out of his game.

All that said they like rhd so maybe they keep him. Tre was patient with Anderson and kylington.
 
I think Lilly has been overall fantastic.

I wish we could see him in an extended look with Rielly now.

I don’t think they trade him. Too much value in a young rhd who can do everything, that even these morons know it.

It's not just Dubas though. This is the way the Leafs always operate and they probably won't get anywhere until that philosophy changes.
 
It’s also the way pretty much everyone operates and win cups doing it though.

You just have to spend on the right guys, and Foligno and co. have been anything but.
 
Benoit (from the Athletic)

So far this season 195 defenceman have played at least 400 five-on-five minutes, and only 10 of them have been on the ice for fewer goals on a per-60-minute basis than Benoit’s 1.67. That’s not goaltending flukiness, either, as just six blueliners have shots against per 60 totals lower than Benoit’s 24.27.

All of those defenceman are on either the Carolina Hurricanes or Edmonton Oilers— two of the four best shot-suppression teams in the NHL at five-on-five.
