HEAVY DUTY
Thanks to denial, I’m immortal.
i can't believe ottawa keeps winning with their injured roster. if they had all their players back, can't even imagine how much better they would be (this season). kinda made me feel even sad about our leafs 
Solid future in that city IMO with proper managment.
3 first round picks in a deep draft, most likely 2 being top 15, other being 15-30.
should be able to get at least 2 very good players to fill out the lineup.
A very young team going forward.
Looking at the standings in both conferences I think the NHL has to seriously look at changing points for winning and losing games. The loser points in shoot outs and overtime should be gone. Award the teams who win in regulation and overtime. It's a team game not a skills completion. The leafs would have more of a Cushin for the playoffs. It's getting to be to much awarding teams that lose
It was bound to be a close season, the schedule is so condensed, so many back to backs.
I didn't expect the same teams to be dominating like normal, a team gets hot this year and it can take a huge chunk out of other, better on paper teams(I.E CBJ is doing very well.)
I dont mind the overtime point, keeps the playoff runs close and exciting down the end stretch.

Little help would be nice though
Lol..the Bruins play tight as **** against us and then **** it up against Jets, Habs, Carolina etc..
As a Bruins fan first, I have to agree, wtf? I'd rather see the Bruins lose to the Leafs than the Habs or some other useless teams. I want the Leafs to make the playoffs, Habs on the other hand, I'd love to see them in 9th seed each season, 1 point off from 8th

Something that has been bothering me since the Perry signing(little OT) but... Does anyone think there is even a little chance of a sign and then offseason trade that could emit? I know I know, call me crazy. I just realistically don't see how the ducks can afford all that. I'm not taking into account Bobby Ryan going anywhere either. Man, would they ever be strapped for cash to even make the littlest of moves.
Everyone besides the Leafs can beat Boston on their day
You know how good than damn PANTHERS looked against the Bruins?
Can we at least get two loser points
Perry was a pipe dream anyways. Knowing the luck of our team, he would sign a cap friendly deal with the Habs had he reached UFA.
Second best option was seeing him re-sign with the Ducks.
We never get that kind of luck...look at B. Richards (he sucks now) but he wanted to play for Torts. Perry thought about going home but he ultimately signed in Anaheim.
I don't blame him TBH. There would be far too much pressure on him if he under performed on a 9M contract with the Leafs/Habs etc.
^ When Perry said home, it could easily have been Ottawa or childhood team Habs. Glad that he re-signed with Ducks, my second team.

Peterborough is like an hour ride from Toronto.
Montreal is 5 hours. Ottawa is like 4.
Home definitely means Leafs.

He has family that lives and has season tickets in Ottawa. He said it was the only reason he came to the All-Star game last year.
Spends his offseason in London actually.
London is like 2 hrs from Toronto, coming home meant Toronto and it was clear in his interview that it was. Sucks for us though

Because you know the Bruins can beat the Leafs, but those pesky Habs have been known to upset the Bruins in the past. Lets face it the Habs give the Bruins fits and it's already happened this year.
p.l.f.
use the force
When you watch the habs play they forecheck non-stop. Don't need a Grabovski shutdown line when you spend most of the time in the other team's end. Something the Leafs do not do.

i suppose it would work if we had good shutdown players
i'm all for a 3rd line kid energy line otherwise
like mtl's galchenyuk-gallagher line
ie: d'amigo-colborne-ashton
boychuk on waivers - tsn
