Exactly!!!
The league leaders are on pace for 170 points and 100 goals. I would expect at least that from these losers. This is definitely not an early season pace only, and will 100% keep up for the remainder of the session.
Conclusion: Leafs suck and are overpaid; the year the Oilers won the cup.
In all seriousness though. Something is not right.
Maybe I sound paranoid now, but it's obviously a combination of a bunch of shit. As mentioned ad nauseam, it's team toughness and leadership that's lacking. No togetherness
- Jealousy at Captaincy. Even unspoken takes away from Tavares' ability to truely lead.
-Spite that a certain player is getting paid more than he's worth.
-I don't care what anyone says, the Matthews security guard crap had effected this team
-Loss of Dad
-I truely believe that they've tuned Babs out already
Cue the: they make so much money, they have to man up and get through this. I agree. I just don't see it happening with the current roster/ coach.
Dubas got himself into this mess but let's see how he digs himself out before we crucify him. At least a full season with his guy behind the bench
