Oh AND SCRATCH CLARKSON INTO RETIRMENT!!!!! or atleast contract termination.
Would you retire if you showed up to work, was told to watch everyone else, and still got paid the same?

Yeah, im sure you were suffering during the shortened season.
i wish we would keep Santorelli and Winnik. They play the game the right way. Work hard on and off the ice. Good models for our younger players.
Kessel, JvR, and Phaneuf can all GTFO.
Well, good news is this is the right way to go about building a long term contender
Bad news is we will be watching a terrible team for atleast another few years. O well

Did you think that season had a they lived happily ever after ending?
That actually might have been the biggest heartbreaking end to all of them.

I'm in the camp of "believe it when I see it"
Haha, but i dont work as an NHL'er.
Clarkson would be hated for in his hometown if he was continously scratched without retiring or waiving his NMC. Its more a matter of honor than anything else.
We should take Nonis' salary and life savings and give it to Clarkson as he is dumba** who signed him.
If that's the case, we should all just boycott all Robbers and Hell services. Who needs cable nowadays anyways with just about anything and everything being streamed online, and I can go get my Internet and phone plan elsewhere. I mean, if the fact that they collude, fix prices, and pretty much run a wireless cartel wouldn't make you boycott,this should give you a pretty damn good reason to. Hit them in their wallets.
And the Leafs would become a place no one would want to play for acting like 8 year old dirt bags.

I have been referring to this as DeBurkenizing the Leafs for a while now.
It's just too bad we had to endure 6 years of suffering.
At least it will be watchable. It's always exciting to watch young players and see them develop, even if there are a lot of growing pains.
And who knows, maybe they'll actually try to play hard despite the losses? Maybe a little bit of desperate hockey?
and this is any different than the last 6 how? if they don't do a teardown now we would be watching a terrible team for much, much longer than actually tearing it down. the last 6 years is submission of proof of that
Its true, its hard to believe in reality that a scorched Earth draft rebuild process is truly in the cards for MLSE plan going forward.
However I guess there is just so much embarrassment they can take, by the poor play and ratings plummeting that everyone has a breaking point.
I think the reality of the situation is that there is no fixing this mess with more band-aid quick fix attempts and that a reset and start again is the best course of action. Now will MLSE make the financial sacrifice to see it through is million dollar question.
Sadly I'm in this camp aswell; been burned too many times now. I'm not sure I trust this management group will do what's best for the long term, and not just save their employment.
But we will see soon enough.

Yup, we've been watching bad hockey for close to a decade now. They should've done this a looooong time ago, though. Thank god Shanny's apparently come to that realization now
Kinda hard to do with those contracts. Clarkson aint going anywhere
