Lol Sweeny. Overpaid and horrible contract for a washed up veteran.
As a Leafs fan this is great news.
As a Leafs fan this is great news.
Probably because we have witnessed the leafs torch him all yearSeems just about the only people who think it's a bad contract are Leafs fans. Color me shocked.
He’s looked very slow in games against the Leafs this year. Maybe it’s just cause the Leafs are a fast team, but as a fan, he doesn’t worry/concern me when we play the Bruins. Only that he’ll injure someone in the playoffs because he’s pretty good at that.
The post may read somewhat bias/bitter, but I think it’s a fair contract and he’s had a great career. Good deal for all he brings off the ice and to the locker room.
As a rival fan, this does nothing for me either way.
I would take him on the Leafs at that contract no doubt, but he’s been easy to play against for us the past couple years.It definitely does. Just for PK alone that’s a steal. Very few teams wouldn’t sign him for one year for that alone. Including your Leafs. Babcock would take that deal and term in a nanosecond. Leafs are a good team, but their weakness is on D.
Chara to Boston has to be one of the best. I can't think of a better one off the top of my head.Is there better ufa signing ever?
Your leafs are highly unlikely to get past those Chara led Bruins you know.....anyways solid signing for Boston....you can't lost...even if he does fall off dramatically in his play next year no big deal....only a one year deal...smart move by both sides....Hes old and slow, however he has size he can use to his advantage. Great deal for the leafs, as we will continue to take advantage of him.

Season series is 3-1 leafs so I don't see why we are unlikely to get to the 2nd round
You clearly have not watched him much this season then. He honestly looks to have gained a step over the last 2 years
Because A) playoffs are a different game B) look at the injuries boston has had to play through with each of those games against Toronto and c) the matchup between TO and BOS isn't even set in stone. For all we know it could be Tampa and TO although unlikely given the Bruins current injuries and 2 games against Tampa coming up.
This is the exact mentality Toronto had that seen Boston come back in 13. Its not over until the final buzzer.
To be clear and fair I believe we were without Matthews for at least 2 of the Boston games possibly a third. It's late and I can't remember...but we beat Boston without our best player a few times already.
If you are comparing the '13 leafs and the incompetent coaching etc we had not to mention an over achieving roster to our current one and it's mentality. ..you are going to be I'm for a surprise. That '13 team couldn't keep up with the current one on its best day.

And then you have you...casting generalizations about Leaf fans because of a very small Minority.
But yeah it's only Leaf fans who are stirring the pot...
Never change HFB...never change.

You do realize that the playoffs are a totally different beast and regular season records rarely mean anything?Season series is 3-1 leafs so I don't see why we are unlikely to get to the 2nd round
