<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AStovetop</b></div><div>Also why I said we'll see what Hagens does next year at BC. Right now Celebrini has proven that he can dominate at the NCAA level as a 17 year old. And for the 3rd time, I'm comparing both draft -1 years, so I'm comparing the same year of development between the two. I agree there's surely things I'll miss from only seeing clips of Hagens and not full games, but as of now I'd rather have Celebrini</div></div>

It's just odd if you listen to what scouts and analysts say who watched them both develop. You are watching clips and looking at a stat sheet, that's not exactly a full picture. Who knows, maybe you end up being right but I have to believe the pros analysis of 16 and 17 year old kids before I trust myself with a stat sheet and a few clips

Sujet: Emphasis on defensemen part 2
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>You defend Jones and bash Rielly. You have lost. Rielly is better offensively and defensively. And has never had a proper partner. You are silly</div></div>

You realize how foolish your response are to me? Nowhere did I bash Reilly; in fact I called him a "very good player" and questioned his partners. When I say, Jones would be the 2nd best defender on the Leafs who do you think I am suggesting is #1? Reilly. Dude, seriously cool your trolling...you've been on here all day non stop getting into arguments embellishing people's statements for an argument....it's either stop putting words in mine or other's mouths or work on your reading comprehension skills...choose one and maybe you'll have more productive interactions with people, get some 'likes', and not come off as such a miserable human

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aadoyle</b></div><div>Sammy did help the Leafs win that series. If he does not stop that breakaway game 6 we have have had a game 7. He was a factor on top of the team rallying a comeback

Again going to the other goalie to soon does nothing. He lets in 4 whose next Jones, Jones lets in 4 whose next Murray, Murray then lets in 4 whose next oh wait they got swept.

Keefe went to war with Cooper and won. Copper is one of the better coaches in the NHL, BOS is also good but TOR has forced a better version of them into a game 7 twice with the most stubborn coach in the league in Mike Babcock. Leafs are 2-7 in the Matthews game 1 era not concerned about a single game

Everyone top to bottom needs to smarten up as if we keep taking stupid penalties, allowing 2 on 1's and losing puck battles to a single guy when 5 are back in their zone were going no where. Big boyz especially need to wake up

Dont care for posts or shots at the end of the day all we see are 0's</div></div>

Sammy sucks. His stats rank last of out starting goalies this season and even behind backups in save %. Goaltending and defense is what is needed in the playoffs and both are weak spots for the Leafs. If one is bad, it makes the other look bad and in the case of the Leafs, both aren't great.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>You just made your whole argument irrelevant. Jones isn't a good 2nd pair defenceman. Worst contract in the whole league.</div></div>

...and here you go again.

Jones is a good #2 next to a #1; look at the Hawks defense with and without him during his injury...it's clear as day what he brings to the ice against the oppositions best players and on the toughest assignments. He would easily be the Leafs 2nd best defensive player on the team. Jones is #2 on the Hawks next to Vlasic who would also be the Leafs best defender who ranked top 3 in the entire NHL in the defensive zone as a rookie.

His contract and his abilities are mutually exclusive and can be objectively judged separately as I just said in my last comment.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>A lot of the goals against issues on this team are system issues. The same thing hurts the team over and over and over and Keefe never changes anything. The goaltending with Sammy is obviously not good, woll has a lot of potential but Keefe ruins guys he doesn't trust and for whatever reason he picks his guys and they can do no wrong. Jarnkrok has played 1 game in the past 2-3 months, better make him a key player in game 1. Sammy wasn't even an NHLer for the first half of the season, he's the starter and he'll get another 2 games to prove Keefe wrong. The PP gets too predictable, better do the same thing we always do. When they play their puck possession, pinch all the time system in the playoffs and the opposition just traps them and get quick strike offence the other way, do the same thing until they lose. Keefe sucks</div></div>

They are always pinching trying to play possession in the o zone, but against heavy defensive teams it doesn't work. Hence my comment about Reilly in the other thread. This has gone on before Keefe as well.
