As far as fans go I would be on the top line, so maybe as a top player its time to have my say. A slide like this at the most important part of the season is a sign of a major issue. Now the big question is what is that issue?.

In my opinion there are a few issues that need fixed. One is the system, its not working. Then there is motivation, its just not there, nor has it been all season. Can you believe we let go of guys like Mccarther, and Kamarov, and everyone wonders where the drive is. Bringing in Clarkson was a let down, and he is not as bad as he is playing. look at all the players we let go, they seem to play much better then when they are here. Again could this be the System.

Coaching should get the best out of players (example see Montreal) yet we don't. Deon is not captain material yet he is. He is making way too many errors , and so are all the leafs. Is it coaching?
The bottom line is, this team is lacking that drive needed to win. weather it be the players, Coach or management it needs to be fixed once and for all.

My head as a leaf fan is ready to explode, this team is better than this. Any one else  feeling a bit lost with this Leaf team that keeps looping year after year, with the same issues.

If you replace the coach with someone else who actually has a better overall system defensively and offensively, then every other issue becomes resolved. 












 
This reminds me of a story my dad told from his merchant navy days where they had terrible cook on the ship.  They had him for two years before he went to a different ship and all the crew were having a laugh about how crap he was until someone pointed out that as much as they complained about the cooking they ate the $**t that was served regardless. The running joke was "who called the cook an ass, who called the ass a cook?"

Anyway keep gobbling what is served and complain but don't expect much to change

I think this is right, to bad management cant see it.
 
When Nutman gets down I get down?don't know why but it happens. But today I feel good and I have to remind Nutman of a few things?the Leafs are on a one game winning streak with a 4-0 shutout. The emergance of Rielly (according to most of todays papers) as a bonifide stud defenseman.  The breaking up of the bromance of Phil and Tyler and putting a decent Centre with the Thrill.  Babcock waiting in the wings.  And raindrops on roses.
Cheer up Nutman

Hey, you're only allowed to post when the coach says you can come out of the pressbox.

Which is never, or at least with only 5 syllables.  At which point I will critique your ability to create a fluid and coherent post.
