Worst January in the history of the franchise.  Thank you, God, for giving me the chance to see it.

Defensively it was pretty good. It also hit Sherman level for the tank crowd.

Wow, we miss Phaneuf.........

@dalter

On this, the 5th anniversary of Dion Phaneuf's arrival in Toronto, the #Leafs haven't been able to win a game without him since Dec 6, 2010.

Please.  The defense didn't miss him at all tonight, nor on any of the other nights since he's been out. 

Anyway, this little factoid is a red herring.  The defense was bad before he got here, and has been bad since he's been leading it.  If he's indispensable in any sense of the word, he's indispensable to a bad defense.

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoooowwww.
 
I checked the boxscore, therefore I still care?  Amazing that Jake Gardiner has only been a '+' player nine times and hasn't been sent down.  The guy is a loser.

You're hilarious.

i made reference to it in another thread but I thought only high schoolers and sportswriters called people losers.

Perhaps he's in high school....or a sportswriter
 
If we go back to Hitchcocks comments around the time of the Blues game, that it would take up to 20 games for the goals to come when you buy into a new defense system, they just have to stick with it, we have to bear with it and just understand that all our bitching about Randy has brought us to this point. We got what we wanted without understanding the repurcussions of implimenting a new defensive system.  Horachuck to his credit is saying we are staying the course, Kadri said we are buying into the system but it is taking time. 
I would also add the Leafs have had horrible puck luck in the past 10 games as well, but according to both Hitchcock and Horachuck this will come.
Perhaps they will finish off the season with a flourish or turn the corner in the next 10 games.
I know we all want to see a top 5 draft pick as well, so if we miss the playoffs what good does a florish do for us, outside of giving us some promise for the neverending next season.

I think this is literally the best outcome. We got what we wanted buy anyone thinking we'd go on a winning streak were insane. The numbers were declining even while Randy was here. We would probably be 6pts up on our current record. I can't fathom how anyone would rather have a pointless winning streak so we can draft 14th instead of 5-8.

What else can you say?  @#$%???  @#$%???  People get upset if you use the real language required to emphasis Leaf players.
