Trade Deadline

This legit ruined my day.

It’s so unfair that after all the pain of all these years, our mega rich organization, which has unlimited resources, and probably an existing roster that could win the cup before these two trades, is yet again pushing superior young talent to the sidelines by wasting trade capital to bring in the shit that other teams want to flush.

Like we’re literally standing over some moron taking a shit and asking if we could buy it off of him before he flushes. And the moron is wondering what kind of fucking idiot would pay to buy his shit. Fuck this team.

The Leafs D couldn’t move the puck quick enough in the playoffs last year with Lilly, Gus and good Brodie.

That was their Achilles heel.

Yup. Teams just sat back and the Leafs couldn't generate any speed through the neutral zone and that was largely due to their D not being able to move the puck.

Well they have addressed those flaws by making them worse. Let's see how it works.

Yes. But only because we’ve had somewhat functional goaltending at times instead of consistent league-worst goaltending.

And because Rielly > Phaneuf, and because Kessel never had any teammates as good as either Marner or Nylander.

I'm not convinced. Our blueline near the end of that era was Phaneuf-Rielly-Gardiner-Gunnarsson-Franson-Polak
 
I vaguely recall seeing our last cup win, I doubt I'll see another at this rate.

Not that there's anything fucking wrong with me, just getting old and we don't live forever do we.

I think we just have to come to terms with the fact that Shanny is a typical dumb-as-fuck ex-player who lucked into taking over this team right as they were in the middle of having an all-time great and two star level players fall into their laps in consecutive drafts.

And he’s been dining out on that ever since while squandering the primes of their careers.

I think that's deadass on the money.

So to recap, this deadline we upgraded our team by swapping Liljegren, Timmins, 2 3rds, a 5th, and a 6th, for 2 if the worst dmen in hockey.
