The Official Post-Bitch 2025-26 Regular Season Thread

It is funny Blais stays because he scored. but Robertson also scored in the same game.
I mean who do they need more of right now of the 2? The answer is clear.

Gotta point out here as well, this is going on way too long and Leafs look bad not moving Robertson. He requested a trade offseason, 2024. I get you don't want to move him for little and get burned, but at some pint you can't have it both ways. Play him real minutes or move him.
Lost track. Didn't realize he requested a trade. Smart thing to do. Too bad fools and idiots are in charge. :(
 
I think they could do the mutual termination thing, no? But that’d mean Kampf leaving $4.8m on the table that no other stupid team will pay.
 
So the line that i've long wanted to see - Matthews flanked by the two "kids" (at least they were kids back when i first wanted to see it) was put together for the first time last night and had a 71xgf% and were on for 2 goals for and 0 against. Nicky had a goal and an assist, Matthews had a goal, Knies had an assist.

And then of course Cowan scored his first career goal on a line with Tavares and McMann, who weren't quite as good but still nearly 60xgf%.

It would bring me great pleasure to see those kids stick on those lines.

And then you could just plop Willy on Roy's wing and instantly have 3 good exciting lines.

or you could drop nicky and play blais and lorentz instead.
 
It's absolutely devastatingly dumb to not at least go with this for awhile. Robertson and Cowan are literally the only two guys that give this lineup some offensive upside. We know what the rest of the team are already beyond maybe Maccelli, but he was already given loads of opportunity.

Upside and speed. It’s nice seeing a couple of guys who can move quickly and create plays. Cowan is fast out there, and Robbie has always been quick and gets that shot off in a hurry.

If I were GM and Berube scratched either one again, I’d fire him. It’s incompetence.

I vote blais and Lorentz.
 
This Blais thing is the new brain damage for 2025.

McMann just doesn’t play to his abilities consistently, but still insane to pull him for that guy.

But…that’s the best top six configuration and I could handle some bottom six bullshit if those two lines get a chance to stick for a while.
