How'd you generate that ?

Let's say we feel the Leafs can't beat upper echelon teams, but beat rebuilding teams. Is there a stat for that ? Sort like you get less points for beating a lower placed team and more points for beating a Top 10 team ?

So you essentially click baited people with a false title to what your real point was..well done you might as well be a russian disinformation troll

I'm just looking at the situation from a few angles.

vs. Boston and TB
vs. "Top teams".

It appears we can beat better teams, excluding Boston and TB.

@zeke

Is there some stat that shows what Corsi numbers a team puts up vs the strength of the team ?

I happen to turn on Prime Time Sports and Don Cherry was on saying how could the Leafs have traded Matt Martin and used an example of Matthews getting hit hard into the boards because no one was defending him. He went onto to use the example of the Canucks going after Mike Matheson last night as revenge when he injured Pettersson in October. :facepalm:

Don't you recall the Kadri beard tug on Joe Thornton last season? The Sharks spent most of the game going after Kadri this season! This stuff happens all the time. It seems like good and bad teams do this. It can even happen months later.

I was referring to how Cherry complained that the Leafs traded Matt Martin and they had no more toughness in their lineup.

I do.

I don't remember how it worked out for San Jose though, any ideas?

Marleau could use a game or 2 on the 4th line. Needs a shakeup, doing nothing good out there for a while now.

Kadri and Willie are snakebit, but i'm still seeing some good things from them, especially Willie.

We are facing Boston in the playoffs and we are currently 1-3

That's the only thing that matters right now
