davey buoy Posted June 15, 2015 Report Posted June 15, 2015 I have $5 bucks for Tampa tonight if any one may wager?.Can't see the bolts lying down.Stammer will have the game of his life !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
grizzlybri Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 hawks win, now lets see the hardware then the real fun of the off season begins
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 What a great Stanley Cup Final!!! Just wish it went one more game.
muddler Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 I think my channel changer is worn out. What a night. Jays almost yanked out win 12 in a row, Women's soccer team dominate their third game and only got a tie, and the Cup finals went to the Hawks. Awesome hockey, awesome sports night. All that was missing was the NBA finals. I love this time of the year. The best of the best is there to watch and cheer. Congrats to Chicago. What a great playoff for both teams.
leaf4 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 Awesome game, got some warriors out there too Johnson with a broken wrist bishop torn groin, takes some heart
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 I'm surprised Joel didn't have the Hawks throw the series if this is what he has to come home too!!! http://www2.tsn.ca/bardown/Story.aspx?Joel%2BQuenneville%27s%2Bhouse%2Bgot%2Bcovered%2Bin%2Btoilet%2Bpaper%2Bby%2Bcelebrating%2Bfans...again&id=544518
misfish Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 Just think, next season we,ll be cherring on the leafs ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,AGAIN.
muddler Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 Just think, next season we,ll be cherring on the leafs ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,AGAIN. I won't!
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 Leafs mad a minor deal today for Zach Hyman and conditional 7th round pick in 2017. They traded Greg Mckegg to Florida. http://mapleleafs.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=771511
davey buoy Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 That's great Dave,but I want to see meat and potatoes asap.We have enough young players IMO.We need to make some veteran moves as soon as possible.Draft choices won't make much difference for the most part for a few years.Maybe I'm wrong?.
leaf4 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 I like the deal, wonder what the stipulations on the draft pick are? And all things settled I hope they hold onto kessel and phaneuf at least for this season to boost their trade value because the last half under horachek was abysmal for the entire team not just them

And all things settled I hope they hold onto kessel and phaneuf at least for this season to boost their trade value because the last half under horachek was abysmal for the entire team not just them Kessel and Pylon?,get rid of them,Kessel came out and said some days he plays ,other days not so much.Pylon is way to slow,Why would anyone want to keep these two is beyond me ???????????????

Meat and potatoes for what? Let them build a competitive team the proper way (Look at Detroit).. draft picks, scouting, take your time. I doubt they even make the playoffs in the next 2-3 years at a minimum. Like Babcock said, lots of growing pains ahead. Rushing into anything is going to get us back to exactly what we've had the last few years. Zilch.

Building again,?Yes I understand,but get rid of the dead wood and get some descent players.Every other good team has them .We spend the cap on ..We need veteran players,not just prospects.These are the players that will move us forward.Your drafts will/may not,work out.Let's make a statement now !!!!!!!!!!!!Not in another 4/ 50 years.
misfish Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 .We need veteran players,not just prospects.These are the players that will move us forward. . I would take a team with 23 -35 yoa players, that can play as a team and give an effort every game..
davey buoy Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 . I would take a team with 23 -35 yoa players, that can play as a team and give an effort every game.. Yes,some veterans,my point.Not many 35 year old rookies out there.I just Hate the thought of rebuilding with to many young players.You need leadership. But good leadership.We have a couple players or at least one that admits sometimes he doesn't give 100% rebuild the way some of the most successful teams do.

By deadwood I assume you mean Kessel... not going to be super easy to trade a guy who is coming off a very poor season and is still owed 56 million, Phil the thrill showed at lot of GM`s last year what the really Phil Kessel can do for a team!!! Having said that let me put my Habs GM cap on for a minute and say this Habs first and a prospect to Toronto for Kessell with Toronto eating 3 million/year of dough boys salary...... :clapping:

A GM would help....only the Leafs would hire a entirely new coaching staff with out a GM....
misfish Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Yes,some veterans, The only ones we would get ,are the ones that looking to get paid and play when they need. We have them already. Give me a team like I said, and I,ll bet they will surprise you. We need a team that wants to play for the love of the game. Edited June 19, 2015 by Brian B
muskymatt Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 I predict the laffs will finish dead last next year, no matter what they do!
LostAnotherOne Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Leafs aren't finishing dead last with Babcock as coach. Maybe if they kept Horachek they would have a chance.
