@WatchMyReview Most teams pay dearly for has beens, Leafs being one, they get desperate at the trade deadline and give away picks and prospects thinking that player is just what they need to get them over the hump, it’s backwards, it was Sammy Pollock and bill Torreys strategy, 13 Cups!

@DunkGwcdunk Not in the NHL. Least affective strategy in any sport. Most big names stay with their teams. And the salary cap

One thing that sucks for the Leafs is with the rising cap there will be less players teams are needing to "Dump" to make room. Also, UFA list is bad.

@TLNdc OMG are you out of your mind, the reason they haven’t won a Cup is because they didn’t have a #1 Dman, every team since expansion that’s won multiple Cups has had one, the reason the Leafs haven’t is because they prioritized 4 forwards

Maple Leafs’ priority should be a forward if they get to use their 1st-round pick theleafsnation.com/news/toronto-m…

Real question??? Why did we move away from having this much space to being packed like sardines??Is there a log!cal reason???

@walsha Sam Pollock acquired the rights to Ken Dryden from Boston after the 1964 amateur draft, he was the genius, he developed Scotty to be his coach and won 9 Cups. Leafs need a genius like Pollock and Torrey, draft and develop and smart trades for prospects

2 legendary hockey minds. Similar observations. “Hockey is 80% goaltending until you don’t have it. And then it’s 100%” - Pat Quinn “Goaltending doesn’t matter, unless you don’t have it.” Scotty Bowman

@LeafsfanEst1991 They need to hire a President first, Pelley shouldn’t be allowed to pick a GM, he doesn’t know hockey, he’ll just recycle another guy, who won 1 Cup, we need an innovator as GM, who will draft and develop, a Sammy Pollock or Bill Torrey type who can build a sustainable dynasty

Leafs shouldn't hire Cassidy because they still need a GM and Prez of hockey Ops. Doing things backwards has screwed this organization up for so long. If Pelley has a guy in mind for GM and he wants to hire Cassidy then fine.

@tddt_5115 Mehta is an interesting choice, I would hire him but not as GM, he’s strictly an analytics guy, the Leafs have never been able to draft and develop, they need someone who can evaluate talent and put a system in place to develop their young players, an innovator with a vision!

President: Nill GM: Mehta HC: Cassidy O-Coach: Woodcroft D-Coach: Muzzin PP: Sullivan PK: Malhotra Maccelli - Matthews - Tuch Knies - Nylander - Cowan Bunting - Tavares - Robertson Joshua - Groulx - Quillan McCabe - Hamilton Byram - Tanev OEL - Verhoeff Stolarz Woll Hildeby

@nylanderthews I don’t want a recycled GM or Coach, let’s find young innovators and build a sustainable organization, draft and develop, it works and has always been the recipe for dynasties, two greatest GM’s in hockey history won 13 Cups without winning a lottery, Sam Pollock and Bill Torrey!

I have reservations about Cassidy’s long-term staying power (I want the Leafs to build a more sustainable group with their next FO hires) But more importantly, bringing him in now would be another backwards hire Hire a President, then a GM, then Cassidy if he’s still available

@elonmusk I’m skeptical of autonomous cars in winter weather, not of the car itself but the people around them?

Elevators used to be manually operated and were especially risky if the operator was tired or inebriated. Now, you just get in, press a button and a modern elevator, if inspected regularly, is extremely safe.

@WatchMyReview @HabsChronicle You need a number 1 DMan and great goaltending as part of that Core, I don’t watch the Habs but I’ve heard their goaltending can be suspect but they have a number 1 DMan, he’s a little small but we will see.

@HabsChronicle I like the Habs core a lot, but Sens fans use to make these tweets about their amazing young core and the cheap cap hits. In the end, big cap hit or not, you need an elite core.

Suzuki is hitting 100 points. Caufield is hitting 50 goals. For under 8 million, each. Kent Hughes, you beautiful, beautiful man.

@ApprovedDw @WatchMyReview Both GM’s did the same thing, trade picks and prospects for players past their prime, it’s a shortcut. Both coaches are copy cats, we need innovation

@WatchMyReview @DunkGwcdunk Bérubé had zero shot with this group. Did the best he could last year. Keefe was solid too. It was never the system. Bad trade after bad trade from Dubas era to Tre. Gave away talent for mid guys. Invested in mama boys and soft rich kids.

Maholtra as coach, Kevyn Adams assistant GM. Brandon Pridham GM.

@WatchMyReview He’s recycled, we need an innovative GM, nobody’s heard of!

@DunkGwcdunk Adams didn't do that

Edna would still rush to hire Kevyn Adams before Cassidy...

@WatchMyReview @UnderdogMLB I noticed he looked a lot heavier in recent years, wonder if he has a body of a first baseman now?

@UnderdogMLB He better hit with his crappy D.

Bo Bichette as a Met: 1-11 7 K

@odognine2 @GinoHard_ @JFreshHockey Sign him up for the Leafs against the Ducks!

@GinoHard_ @JFreshHockey Jesus

INSANE STAT 🤯 Troy Terry is the FIRST player in NHL history to play 50+ games in a season without recording a SINGLE hit 😵 (h/t @JFreshHockey)

@thegoldenmuzzy Doomed

Wow Marner and Torts seems like a perfect match

@WatchMyReview @Gate14Pod Pitching and defence wins championships!

@Gate14Pod You can talk all about Bo's bat, but his D is massive.

THEY ARE CHANTING DEFENSE AT TH ROGERS CENTRE. ANDRES GIMENEZ HOLY SHIT

@DanClarkSports I don’t think he’s a dirtbag, he is addicted to pain killers!

𝗨𝗻𝗽𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗢𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻: Tiger Woods is a fucking dirtbag and bros should stop idolizing him for his achievements on the golf course.

@GarysheffieldJr Cause he’s a drug addict

If Tiger blew triple zeroes why is he being charged with a DUI?
