All the injuries and other Marlies called up… and Quillan still gets the 4th line gig with Pezatta and Jarnkrok after paying his dues and playing a dozen games? (I’m not watching so unsure how he’s been deployed tonight, but if so…)

Wasn’t there a rumour Jarnkrok had signed somewhere in Sweden or something next season? Maybe his head is already there.

If you try and look at it objectively, I feel like the “better” job in terms of what you can do is probably NJ. More assets to make changes etc. But then against that, your big thing is if you’re the guy who finally wins the Leafs something… I dunno which job I’d take if I was in for both tbh.

Interesting article with Rielly in The Athletic where he says he wants to stay. He’s been bad this season. But so has pretty much anyone you pick. I do wonder if a different coach and different utilisation of him gets something back out of him. Even if you’re retooling/rebuilding you do...

His Leafs cup drought ending Stanley cup winning game 7 3rd OT period walk off clinching goal next season will tip it in his favour.

This moon visit footage is great. I’ve barely moved since 6pm when it started on tv here. There’s been loooooong spells of “nothing” happening, yet, at the same time it’s been literal history happening live.

He’s definitely no Sundin, but I think that’s just cos he’s “quiet”. And by quiet I mean he just professionally does his job. He’s very methodical and that is what has worked for him. He isn’t a very outwardly emotional guy in that he doesn’t seem to get massively excited about scoring...

I was thinking where he should be sent 😬🤣

Can’t wait for us to hire Patrick Roy to replace Berube in the off season too.

Well, Little is off to Dunedin.

Have they even appointed the recruitment firm? But of the names mentioned, he’s the one I think is most intriguing.

How can we be so shit that we’re even shit at being appropriately shit when we should be being shit? It’s so very, very Leafy.

It was a bit of a series of unfortunate events. Foul tip catching Kirk on the thumb (and it looked serious), Heinemann having to come in cold and unexpectedly and then yeah he botched the throw but I’ll cut him a little slack in the circumstances.

Yup, and that kind of asshole also becomes suddenly more palatable when he’s YOUR asshole! 😬😀

Good chance for Rielly to get to know his future teammates.

It is. Which is why, while obviously I’d have loved the leafs to win, I still enjoyed watching the incredible levels of skill under Dubas/Keefe. I’d rather have watched that than watch them play the way they have the last 2 years even it it had taken them further in the playoffs. Maybe I’m...

The bolded spot there is I think almost key to the whole organisation. As much as you hate him, someone like a Tkachuk would be incredible. Maybe there’s a Tkachuk lite out there somewhere. I wonder if the pieces you mention, and who I agree need to be moved on in the second part quoted could...

The big thing is I think they have the goaltending to contend. Woll could in my opinion string together 15 strong playoff games. But that’s IF they can balance out the forwards, especially actually the third and fourth lines, and make the D a little more mobile to take advantage of that at the...

I don’t really like those third and 4th lines at all. And the D isn’t changed enough for me either. But it’s a start.

I actually only got round to watching that press conference. It’s kind of killed my brief shot of enthusiasm. I thought I’d switched on a live stream of someone reading out their LinkedIn profile. The vertical alignment wasn’t horizontally aligned. Give me strength.
