The 2019-2020 MotherFucking Season Thread

For the record, I have no issues with Leaffan as a poster. There tends to be a lot of groupthink on this board, and there's nothing wrong with having a dissenting opinion, as long as you're prepared to back it up.

It seems pretty cut and dry though, that this team has an elite forward group, a much, much better coach, a pronounced lack of truculence, and goaltending issues. The only thing up for debate, really, is the quality of the defensive zone coverage.

Optional skate this morn: Holl took the skate, Tavares and Hyman didn't, but we don't know what either of that means.

I think most people have you on ignore so you don't have to worry about causing destruction.

If someone shows enough times they have nothing to add I use ignore to maintain some sanity. With 05 there, he just seems to rush in to post when something bad happens...reminds me of the early days of hockey forums.
I had hoped we'd all evolve beyond that, but that was silly.

Fred leaves the ice first making me think he gets the start tonight.

Please be Frovember and not Froctober the rest of the way. That would ease every single one of my concerns about making the playoffs. It would be a complete non-issue.

February has been semi kind to him with a .915sv% and he has a good track record against the Yotes 8-3-1 .936%

No word on Kuemper's injury yet and if he can go tonight

Please be Frezina

I stand corrected. Mr. Campbell is starting tonight. Fred not quite ready.

JT and Hollzer game time decisions. Several leafs wrecked by the flu.

Dubas is an anti-vaxer.

Almost as if the flu could explain the sluggish play the last week.

Nah just millenial babies with the sniffles

Dreger: "are the leafs really a team chasing a cup this year"
Jonas: "they have a top 5 record under keefe, of course they believe they are chasing a cup this season"

TSN execs have to be embarrassed at this point.

Depends, what do the click analytics and ad revenue analytics say?

Let's be real, those are the only two things they care about. They would cut Bobo's head off during their deadline day special if they thought it would bring in more ad revenue.

 

[Artnes]

Valid point. At the end of the day he appeals to the average hockey fan. He has been getting dunked on much more often lately.

Good to see someone finally call him out on his bs

 

[zeke]

They should be clear that he's not an analyst, just a rumours guy.

Or just shut it off.

Either way.

Literally inescapable if you follow the leafs on social media. I dont watch TV, listen to terrestrial radio or follow any of those specific platforms or their personalities on social media. Still get bombarded with their idiot hot takes

Sounds like if we want him back for super cheap, he's willing.

Let's not forget that this city also caters to a large base of haters, I am sure that, if they are stuck in this city, at least they can enjoy hearing the Leafs get ripped.
