Not trying to be disrespectful, just an honest question. Is this the worst Red Wing team in at least 25 years?

Most likely talent wise it is. This is the first time in a long time that this team hasn't had elite talent. We're coming off of a season where our top point scorer had 50pts and we have no top pairing defensemen.

Maybe. We'll have to see how it turns out. It's certainly the least exciting team in 25 years. I'm going to watch every game, but I'm not looking forward to a single one of them.

Nice job vanek

 

[Claypool]

I had no idea who #62 was. Now I do. lol

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

What a pass. Nice effort there by Vanek.

 

[Konnan511]

Great play by Vanek on the steal and saucy pass to Gus.

 

[Heaton]

Great play by Vanek.

I have to admit, I had no idea either

Nice pass by Vanek.

 

[NervousPerson]

Nice pass Vanek. Nice shot Nyquist.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Sometimes with Larkin, I think his greatest strength and occasional weakness is that nobody has told him he's not Connor McDavid. Occasionally, he pulls off some crazy stuff.

 

[Konnan511]

Smith with a crushing uppercut!

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

Dang. Good pace so far.

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

Enjoying Vanek so far

 

[Mijatovic]

Too many high quality chances for the Leafs already though.

Great shift by Vanek-Nyquist-Helm and great work to get the goal.

 

[Claypool]

Ouellet

 

[Wood Stick]

Of course my area is blacked out

 

[Mijatovic]

At least being in Australia, good luck blacking anything out

Mrazek looking in great form.
I hope its just first game back jitters but Z is not looking any quicker than at the end of the last season.

 

[Ezekial]

The boys look pretty good so far, people expecting to much out of Toronto and too little out of the wings this year. Not that I think we're contenders or anything, but too many people have us close to or under the leafs.

Why did you expect a soon to be 36 year old to be quicker the following season?

 

[Mijatovic]

Why did you expect a soon to be 36 year old to be quicker the following season?

Because he could barely skate by the end of last season.

 

[TheMule93]

Woo Larkin

 

[Konnan511]

Larkin!!!!!!!!!

 

[Heaton]

Good goal, but I don't like how they're setting up on the PP, seems like they're doing things exactly the same as last year that didn't work the majority of the time.
