The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

- I think he’s gonna make some fans mad with all the deflecting on behalf of The Core 4
- I do like him reiterating The Process of just tweaking things so you can keep knocking and knocking and knocking on the door.
- as Mizz said, he speaks my language addressing the reality of luck being the third dance partner.
- praises Sheldon pretty effusively….but stops short of saying he’s back. Says he’d be a top coach candidate on the marker if he was available.
- no master plan, no big huge changes to make.
- “jokes“ he’ll bring out a fake Afro and rubber gloves to be a part of the draft. 🙄

eh it sure woulda been nice to have a GM that took advantage of having so much elite talent on ELCs and actually added a couple of established studs to the mix in that rare window.
Uh, Foligno and Thornton? Doesn't get more established than that.

It's not like he had a shot at McCann or someone like that.

I was torn on this a bit while listening, cause it felt like coddling them again…💡..but obviously, until these kids sign 8 year deals, blow all the smoke up their asses you need to,

I think there's a case to be made for always coddling these guys, both before and after they sign.

They need to get the utmost protection, feel completely secure internally, to be without distraction and have all the support to succeed. Lord knows they get a tornado of shit any time they turn on the radio or go online, so at the very least their minds should be free from any garbage that gets thrown at them from inside the organization. There's pressure enough just pulling on the Leafs jersey. I don't believe they need to feel more pressure from anywhere else, or that it would drive them to succeed.
