Sujet: We Might Actually Be a Good Team wtf
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>So Toronto addresses their main concern this off season and they somehow get worse?? They have the best offence in the league, and a very solid defence now, with a solid starting goaltender. Toronto is better at every position against the Habs except goalie. Montreal isn’t finishing in front of Tampa, Toronto, Boston period. All you guys did this off-season was trade away a former 70 point player for a middle 6 winger, and added tofolli LOL. Habs are certainly not an elite team and aren’t even better than the likes of Carolina, Islanders, CBJ. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they’re not a playoff team</div></div>

You clearly do not watch hockey!

Enjoy missing the second round once again, then cap hell until one of your overpaid superstars tenures run out.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>I mean you guys still don’t have a first line centre, and are relying on KK and Suzuki to repeat the success they had in the playoffs to be successful. Shea Weber is not the players he used to be, and Price is declining. This team can finish as high as fourth/fifth in the division and as low as sixth behind Florida and realistically Buffalo who have a much much better forward core</div></div>

"Relying" on their performance? Their seasonal performance spoke for itself. Any rational hockey fan can see the bigger picture of a player development - Suzuki and KK are players you trust in. It's kinda how you get a 'number one center.' Your team decided to pay $40 million for two number one centers, a first-line winger, and a bottom 6 winger.

Tatar - 20 goal scorer

Gallagher - 22 goal scorer

Toffoli - 24 goal scorer

Potential 20 goal scorers:
- Armia (16)
- Anderson (27, in 2018)
- Drouin (18, in 2019)
- Suzuki (a stretch, but not irrational to predict)

Potential 50+ Point Players:
1. Tatar
2. Weber
3. Danault
4. Gallagher
5. Petry
6. Suzuki
7. Drouin
8. Anderson

Notice how it isn't just like, ALL on five players? Kinda like how it ALL depends on whether Tavares, Marner, Matthews, Nylander, and Reilly perform to win a game? Yeah... that's kinda the opposite of depth.
Every defender in the current leafs system CLEARLY is not a competent defender (DEFENDER: not offensive-defenseman, such as Sandin). Kinda like how every defender in the habs system that isn't named Chariot, Weber, or Petry was not a competent defender... So, Bergevin got guys who are better at defending.

Dubas needs defensive help clearly on the blue line along within the forward group. So you picked up a Flames defender (one of the worst defensive teams in the league, especially the playoffs) to play RD... whose Left-handed. Then proceeded to add two Jason Spezza 2.0's in Bogosian and Simmonds, both declining pretty much AHL-calibre veterans who don't exactly carry the tank that a 'fast and explosive offensive team' needs to be a threat.

The Leafs holes are still gaping and the forward depth issue is not solved. AT LEAST every fan in the league can admit Bergevin addressed the clear and obvious problems on the team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>whose the bottom 6 winger? the guy who put up 31 goals and was on pace for 72 points? Nice, and ur telling me that I dont watch hockey. KK played half the season in the minors and had 8 points in 36 games! He was a terrible pick when he was drafted, and unless something changes next season he will continue to look terrible. You guys are relying on a sample of 9 playoff games LMAO. Crazy how u delusional fans think youre actually contenders. You guys are the sixth best team in the division, maybe fifth. There is no way Habs are finishing in the top 3 like your buddy said LMAO. This team is a hopeful for the playoffs, nothing more, nothing less. I mean dont forget that at the pause you were 24th in the league and sitting at .500 buddy. And also, please tell me how u can "trust" in KK? I understand Suzuki is a stud, but dont forget that Marner, Nylander, MAtthews all had 60+ points in their rookie seasons. Suzuki wont ever be as good as either one of those players.</div></div>

Yep! You're right - Suzuki will not be like Marner and Matthews due to their rookie performances.

BTW, how have these 'studs' helped the leafs? Haven't really got past the second round since 2013...

See, sure the Habs have had a hard time for the last 4 years... 4 years of a rebuild that put us into the playoffs at the end of the 4th year, to actually BEATING OUT the first matchup (unlike the leafs... like the have not since 2004). Leaf fans love to throw around '.500' stat like you didn't watch every other team BUT YOUR OWN compete in the playoffs for literally 13 years.

The Habs were a losing team these last few seasons, the leafs have been a LOSING FRANCHISE since 1967. Please, do not talk about team performance. When you tank for 5 years, you're eventually gonna wind up getting a Marner and a Matthews. Congratulations: you sucked so bad the league had to give you 2 stars to bring your franchise back to life, and it took over a DECADE. AAAAAAAnd you still haven't made it past the 1st round.

Sure the Habs have choked but, at least we can watch our team play playoff hockey longer than 7 games!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oodz</b></div><div>LMAO ur kidding me! Josh Anderson the dude who had FOUR points in 26 games will be a 50 point scorer sure buddy.

Leafs potential 80 point scorers:

1. Matthews
2. Tavares
3. Nylander
4. Reilly
5. Marner

Potential 60 point scorers:
1. Hyman

Potential 50 point scorers:
1. Ilya Mikhievy
2. Maybe Kerfoot

Montreal has NO STAR players up front. They have 1 all star upfront and THATS IT. when’s the last time u saw a team reply on one good line and 2 AVERAGE lines to even be considered a contender ???? Weber is so washed and Petry can’t play defense in his own end. Price is the most overrated player in the league and hasn’t been good since 2017. Let’s just get this straight, Leafs are an elite team, Habs are an average team. Leafs are better then the Habs at Offense, Defense and u guys are better at goalie. Even the Sabres are in a much better position that the Habs. U know why? Because they have actual star players on their team. Tatar Gallagher are not STAR players lmaoo. They are very good players but certainly not star players. Nylander our fourth best forward would be the best forward on the Habs. And leafs went thru a coaching change and rebuilt their whole offence last year and still
Finished 3rd in the Atlantic. They were 28-15-5 under Keefe. They sure as hell will be competing for that #1 spot in the Atlantic next year while the Habs will be fighting for the lives to even make the playoffs. And u said Bergevin solved ur problems? He traded a 70 POINT GUY For a guy who had 4 points in 26 games and over paid so much for his contract LMAO.</div></div>

Man, you really don't do your research.

First of all: Anderson was INJURED last year, that's why he 4 points in 26 games. The fact you fail to acknowledge that displays your clear ignorance of facts. Domi put up 70 points in 2019, last season he put up 44 points. A clear regression. Another fact you fail to acknowledge because you know you're wrong.

Second of all: Weber was voted the hardest defenseman to get around BY NHL PLAYERS AROUND THE LEAGUE. Price was voted the hardest goalie to beat by 41.55% of NHL players around the league. So, the 'weber is washed and price is overrated' narrative is so delusional it has only certified my suspicions behind your logic behind your incoherent irrational hockey takes.

Lastly: "when’s the last time u saw a team reply on one good line and 2 AVERAGE lines to even be considered a contender ????" WOW! You've truly proved you really don't follow hockey!
1. 1979-80 Islanders: terrible team on paper and to your point, collected an unlikely star in Butch Goring.
2. '91 Penguins: Lemieux and Jagr were LITERALLY all they had. They carried.
3. 2011 Bruins: they didn't have a player over 65 points....

maybe actually quantify your delusional arguments with some facts or history and you won't sound like the irrational leafs homer logic.

One point you clearly missed: STARS DO NOT EQUAL SUCCESS. YOUR TEAM HAS 3 ELITE SUPERSTARS AND YOU CANNOT MAKE IT PAST THE FIRST ROUND. YOUR STARS ARE CLEARLY NOT HELPING WHAT DO LEAF FANS NOT GET ABOUT THIS: FINISHING HIGH IN THE STANDINGS MEANS NOTHING WHEN YOUR TEAM CONSISTENTLY LOSES IN THE FIRST ROUND.

This season will exemplify what LITERALLY, and I mean LITERALLY, EVERY OTHER HOCKEY FAN has been saying about this leaf team. You're too top-heavy. You destroyed your chances at a balanced and sound team once you spent $40 million on four players.

So, again, have fun watching other teams compete past the second round! Enjoy watching your Ontario rivals in OTT eclipse the Leafs.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SuperRandy49</b></div><div>The trade was made because Boeser is younger and fits the age group of our up and coming centers and Gally gives VAN almost 2.1 million extra for this offseason to help them now. Apparently according to everyone else Domi has no value so I included him in this trade just because. Maybe without Domi the trade would be more fair ?</div></div>

It’s well thought out by you, no question.

Humour me and say Stetcher and Juolevi = Feury and 2nd round pick. More less the value is pretty close. That leaves Boeser for Gally, Domi, 16th overall.

I don’t think VAN does Boeser for Domi and 16, nor Gally and 16, but somewhere the three for Boeser seems like a lot - and “a lot” is probably what it takes to move Boeser out of Vancouver.

Maybe less the 2nd round pick? Overall maybe that works better.

Imagine if the Canucks use 16th overall to move out bad deals, then sign Toffoli/Gallagher/Domi to go with Pettersson, Horvat and Miller. That’s a scary top 6.
