I know but the Leafs suck. That Tavares signing has so hampered them.

Boston has goaltending, defense and structure. Toronto will not beat them 4 of 7

 

[sampollock]

Tuned in
Nostril's penality

 

[the valiant effort]

I have zero trust in Coyle/Zacha to even win their matchup with Tavares lol

 

[Player 61]

Kuccherov 100 assists.. Damn, where do you get these Guys!!!!!?

 

[sampollock]

Nostril's is sad

 

[the valiant effort]

I know I'm ahead of the schedule here but I'm trying to figure out which team are going to be tanking next year and i have no idea.

The only certainty to me is San José.

I feel like Hawks, Ducks, Habs, Jackets and Coyotes are all at least going to try to take the next step in their rebuild. Of course, Hawks aren,t going anywhere and all these are going to be at the most bubble teams. I see like 20 bubble team, one legitimately bad team and like 10 good team.

Hawks & SJS for sure.

Montreal, Arizona/SLC, Anaheim, Ottawa are all going to want better results and at least be in the playoff race.

Calgary could be tanking next year. Last thing they want to do is finish 11-20 and give us their 1st. They're bottom 10 this year. I expect them to be bottom 5 next year.

I expect CBJ to be a bottom 5 team next year, too. Philadelphia is still in rebuild mode.

Kucherov got his 100th assist.

I think it's the year CBH actually starts to try to get "better", kinda like we did this year. They'll finish bottom five again but no deliberate thanking. San José is getting Hagens for sure, or Martone if they're unlucky. I'm thinking Philly should blow it up too before Michkov arrives.

CGY is going for it for McKenna.

I just don't see any deliberate tanking like we've seen in the apst 3-4 years.

 

[sampollock]

No nostrils

 

[OldCraig71]

Nostril's is sad

He spits 20 times on every zoom in lol. Pacioretty wasn't that talented.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Nostril's is sad

so it's nostrils, pyjamas, mitch the bitch and bucket head?

 

[Chili]

Tampa looks ready for the playoffs. They still have a lot of guys on that team that know how to play in big games.

Along with their first long summer since choking to the BJs

 

[Tyson]

Toronto gearing up for a quick exit

 

[OnTheRun]

Rogers probably should deploy psychosocial support to SN Studio. With Samsonov, Woll and Jones each allowing 5(+) goals in the last 3 games I'm genuinely worried about them.

Man, Leafs getting their asses kicked by another Florida team. Lol

Leafs pulling the goalie in a last ditch effort for #70 for Matty Boy.

The quest for 93 87 80 50 in 50 70 will return

Yeah, I don't think Columbus is going to make a big step next year. The defense is really bad. They really need to take one of the D in this year's draft. Someone like Buium is perfect for them.

Buium - Jiricek would be a pretty interesting pairing. They won't be deliberately tanking, but I just don't see how they improve all that much. Ditto Seattle. I expect Calgary & Philadelphia to be worse.

Chicago & SJS are really the only 2 deliberate tankers for next year.

We'll see more teams tanking for 2026 draft & McKenna. I won't be surprised if one of those teams is Pittsburgh.

(narrator voice) "OnTheRun wasn't really that worried."
