Canucks fan in peace. To those saying "trade Gardiner at the deadline for picks and prospects to restock the minors" or "I don't like giving up those futures"... what are you thinking? The point of accumulating assets for the future is to someday be in a position to go for it.... otherwise what's the point? What's the goal in building a team?
The day for the Leafs to go for it has arrived. Look at the lineup. Tavares (!). Marner/Matthews giving superstar production on ELCs. Kadri/Nylander/Kapenen. Some useful bangers like Hyman and Brown. I mean, what on earth are you waiting for? If not now, when? My impression of the Leafs for the last few years is that of a team that could score and skate, but were a little bit fragile defensively against a heavy forward team (cough, Boston). Sounds like that's been shored up. Enjoy the ride!
All good, except the Leafs bangers don’t bang. They need to start ASAP.
