Somewhere
just FYI for Tre haters out there and the ones who were calling me out that point shots don't matter

there you have two prime examples why they matter

P.S. Tre with the Klingberg signing had the right idea
I've been saying it for a while that the Leafs get almost nothing offensively from their blueline and it's a major reason why they struggle to score in the playoffs. Klingberg was the right idea, didn't work out. Hopefully he brings in another offensive D or two this summer.

When ESPN started jerking the nucks off for the number of Americans they had/lack of Canadians on the roster before game 7. it was probably a good sign that this was done

Treliving also brought in Edmundson and Lub... was that to solve that issue?

He made it worse in the playoffs.

Klingberg also has sucked for a long time... right idea, wrong player.

And then he did a 180 and got the point less offensive for the playoffs.

Does anyone want to wake the Canucks up and remind them that there's a GM 7 being played tonight in Vancouver?

Both of them played well so I don't know what your point is? Bush had as many points as Marner

They'll figure it out when they have to wait for the riot to die down to get home

Yeah I remember those arguments. They came up with the revolutionary conclusion that the shots that are furthest away from the net result in the least goals, while completely ignoring the purpose and function of them. Having a dangerous shot from the point that opposing teams have to respect immediately opens up the threat of your other shooting options on the PP. But when you run Marner and Rielly on your PP, you don't really have much for the other team to respect do ya?

The f*** are you talking about I was stating the obvious that Ilya Labushkin got as many points as soft hockey legend and your personal hero MM. Shit pick up tho am I right
Really don't care if they would have fired both Tre and shanny after this year but the riding for Dubas by shitting on tre is dumb

DUMBEST philosophy ever! I don't engage with them anymore because its jsut a waste of time. They do nothing but try to prop up the overlord who is not even the GM here anymore.

So Lub was the solution from Treliving for the lack of offense? That is why he was brought in.

I have no clue what you are getting at.

We are discussing we needed offense from the point, and now you are brining up Marner for some reason... We got more defensive on the point and less offensive at the deadline.
