James77 Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 It's not like that, it's a bit more to do with assigning certain forwards who are capable of scoring defensive tasks. Ex. Clarkson
snoil Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 They don't sell out playoff games if they aren't in them.$ from a long playoff run would be astronomical to say the least.
muskymatt Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) OMG this is so entertaining.... ...... they don't want to win ...... .....So you think they could if they wanted to??? Now that's funny They lack character, talent, skill, grit and everything else every other team in the league has, but they could win? You laff fans are brilliant to listen too. Edited September 25, 2014 by muskymatt
James77 Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 I don't think they could if they wanted to either. Losing is the habit now.
BassMan11 Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 They lack character, talent, skill, grit and everything else every other team in the league has. I just feel bad for you now.... being so passionate and knowing nothing about hockey.You're one of those guys who calls into the Radio station after the game aren't you.
davey buoy Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 God help them,cheering them on as always,but no high expectations here sorry.Look at the west,How could we ever compete with second line and defence for the most part?.95% of these players would never make the first line elsewhere.JMO! Go Leafs Go having said that.The underdog again. lol.
SirCranksalot Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 The leafs have what is probably known as the most supportive fan base in the NHL, aka suckers!!
jedimaster Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 I just thought I would pop in here and point out that the Sens are tied for last place.
muskymatt Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 I just thought I would pop in here and point out that the Sens are tied for last place. Yeah but both our prospects and NHL teams beat the laffs and we're 3-0 against the laffs, so all good here!
Mike Pike Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 Senorita fans think the season has started. lol
jedimaster Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 I was chumming the water for bottom feeders, look what bit... Oh yah now this is a fishing thread.
SirCranksalot Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah but both our prospects and NHL teams beat the laffs and we're 3-0 against the laffs, so all good here! what fun is there in beating a team like the Leafs??? Oh, wait a minute, there are no other teams like the Leafs!!(insert a few redundant smileys here!)
manjo39 Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 There is an excellent article on the globe and mail from Cathal Kelly. It is a very good read and very aprapos to this thread. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/for-leafs-fans-let-the-annual-winter-of-discontent-begin/article20752675/ Here is an excerpt: The annual winter of discontent begins ... ... This is the secret of the Leafs. It’s what makes them special. And as we embark on another lost season, it’s important to remember why we’re all here – to suffer together. It’s like church, except we never get to the part about redemption. It’s 100-per-cent crucifixion. It’s probably a good idea to bring your own nails. You wouldn’t believe what they charge for nails at the ACC. As they are fond of doing, ESPN took a nice little run at Toronto this week on that very subject. Canada’s hockey cross to bear is, according to a U.S.-based outlet that makes its money massaging U.S-based viewers and U.S-based readers, the worst team in all the world (or the United States and a few lucky places that touch it)...
AKRISONER Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 ahaha that is a fantastic article. My favourite part is about giving my money to dion and then being mad it him for it lol
Brettiop Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah but both our prospects and NHL teams beat the laffs and we're 3-0 against the laffs, so all good here! So you base your teams success rate on how they do against the leafs? Between that and how much time you spend talking about them on here, seems your pretty immersed in all things blue and white... Ive been a fan my whole life and you clearly care more about them then i do...

Ive been a fan my whole life and you clearly care more about them then i do... I only care about them losing, you see a perfect season for me would be the laffs going 0-82. And they stand a chance of doing just that. That colossal second half of the season collapse last year, which was just one step below the loss to the Bruins in the playoffs, is going to be peanuts compared to how they do this year after the exodus of much of the talent they had last year(if you want to call it talent). See, no one want to play in that career ending toilet of a market the laffs offer. It's embarrassing to the Canadian hockey market and the NHL in general.

I just like watching the laffs lose.....again and again and again and again and again Edited September 26, 2014 by muskymatt

muskymatt Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 hmmmm... so you just proved that an expansion team has a tough couple years upon entering the league. Also on that list was Washington, San Jose, the Rangers and the Quebec Nordiques Lets see..... Washington has won the division finals, conference finals and has been to the Stanley cup finals since 1990-1991 BETTER RECORD THAN THE LAFFS San Jose has been to the playoffs 11 seasons in a row, has been to the conference finals 3 times in the last 10 years BETTER RECORD THAN THE LAFFS The Rangers have won a Stanley cup, has been to the finals another time and has been to the conference finals several times BETTER RECORD THAN THE LAFFS Quebec Nordiques were in the conference finals 4 times before moving to Colorado and winning a Stanley cup BETTER RECORD THAN THE LAFFS The Ottawa Senators have been to the Stanley cup finals, has been to the conference finals anothe 2 times and has been in the playoff more than the laffs since entering the league in 92-92 BETTER RECORD THAN THE LAFFS And on top of all that, ESPN just named the Laffs the worst pro sports team in North America EVER So once again a laff fan has shown the self inflicted foot in mouth disease! No wonder no one takes laff fans seriously!!!
BillM Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 ESPN? You mean the Fox News of the sports world? I give them as much clout as I'd give you Matt when it comes to hockey (aka none )
