I'd say they are. Especially with chiarot back. Edmundson would also help if available.

I mean, they have Jason spezza dropping the gloves and hugging Suzuki after he laid out holl

Simmonds a total dud out there

Honestly, what a pass by Caufield on Josh's 2nd goal, it's a thing of beauty, it's my favorite part of last night

It would of only been topped by that even nicer play and pass by Cole when Andy got robbed by Mrazek
That was pure offensive talent man
Real fun to see him back
(Oh yeah and scored a one timer ho hum lol)

Damn I missed TSN Overdrive. I really wanted to see them cry about the Leafs.

 

[Eco]

Leafs lose to CBJ and now their fans are in full on panic mode.

@salbutera

we were talking about how Steve Dangle would react. Well….:

Guess it’ll be a double snap on his next video given their OT loss tonight.

 

[Megaforce]

CSA Approved line looking good

 

[Plante]

The window lacked belief on high that we actually had one. This upset me the most. We all saw what adding a Vanek did for our roster and we all saw what DD was not able to accomplish as a 1B. There was absolutely no excuse for not moving assets to address these two areas,

We didn't have much assets to trade at that stage. 8 top 100 picks from 08-11 is horrible but some reports said the Habs had a strong pool. It was not probable. Richards, Carter, ROR (1st trade), Spezza. We had no chance to acquire unless we were willing to trade Galchenyuk or Gallagher.

Evans is really coming along. Speed, energy, could be good #3 center. Slide Dvorak to #4 center. Or trade him if value is there??
Pitlick I thought played a good game. Could be another steal.
Anderson, no way we can trade him.

Ever the apologist. Eric Staal was sucking in Carolina for a number of years by then. The McJesus/Eichel draft was coming up. Did MB even contact Carolina once Jordan Staal went down in training camp I doubt it. A smart hockey person would have been able to convince Rutherford that a Pleks/DD for Staal trade made sense 8m in 8m out and a built in tank for Carolina who already sucked.
We also had draft picks to offer up and no our prospect pool wasn’t good but there were ways and means. Bergevin decided to SIT on his hands and declare it a transition year make reference to the LA Kings and finally state that he didn’t believe in windows. Not what you want to hear from a GM after losing in the ECF the previous season.

We aren’t losing our next 32 games, nor are we winning all of them. We’ll still be sellers by TDL.

Sure, maybe there was a deal we could have done but personally, I don't think our pool was deep enough. Bergevin didn't sit on his ass... I'm sure he tried but was he aggressive enough? Probably not
