Jays lose again. Vlad casually jogging out his grounders is getting tiring

Vlad needs to step up. The slow starts need to stop from him. The ground ball to end the 8th was so predictable from him. Springer has regressed. Barger is apparently made of glass. Okamoto is currently the only qualified hitter with an OPS over .800 This is a frustrating team. Gerritt...

I think Marner absolutely got more blame than he deserved but it's also pretty clear that he wasn't producing like this in the playoffs with the Leafs. Sometimes you need a culture shift and the Leafs never went that route. Dostal also looks terrible right now and I honestly can't recall a...

I guess my question is why does that matter? We all know the state of them. I want to be optimistic about them being able to turn the ship around but I also know it's an uphill battle. The PR nightmare of the organization deciding the best course is the part ways but have Matthews say he's...

I'm just not convinced that Matthews is demanded a trade. I know I'm just making up my own narrative but I'm really reading this as more of a deal with the style of play and roster construction or I'm not committing to staying beyond the end of my contract situation

Not that I'm saying they would/should do it...but wouldn't Berube be a great fit in Ottawa. They have mobile defence who can get the puck up the ice and forwards that are capable of forechecking. They seem like a much better fit with Craig than the Leafs.

I'd buy the "give him a chance" argument if he showed any willingness to change up the play style. There was a brief period in the middle of the season where the Leafs seemed to carry the puck a bit more and had marginally better numbers but they constantly reverted back to his collapse defence...

I feel like the debate stuff is just silly at this point. McKenna had 14 points in 7 games at the World Juniors. He had 51 points in 35 games in his College season (9 more than the next closest scorer who was 4 years older than him) He put up 129 points in 56 games in his second WHL season and...

Swing decisions are a real problem with the roster right now. I don't like how the team is playing and it's showing with their poor results so far. The American League is bad right now that is our only saving grace but the Yankees and once again the nonsense Rays where they sell off and have...

Obviously if the right deal comes along, Mo goes out the door for me...but if we change the coach, I'm willing to listen to the idea of Rielly staying. He absolutely can't be on PP1. He can't be played 20 minutes a night, but I think there is still value in Rielly even though he is a warty...

It's our own internal pick that matters in that sense though. Yes, we should get a haul for Matthews/Nylander in pick/prospects. But getting say Philly's 1st round pick (unless we traded it to get our 1st back) I'm not sure that I view the Leafs bottoming out and giving up a top 10 pick but...

So as of right now we have a top 6 of Matthews, Nylander, McKenna, Knies, Cowan, Tavares. The bottom 6 is a dogs breakfast of Domi, Joshua, And then the glut of Marlies who didn't really get an opportunity under Berube

I know we need defensemen but I think McKenna is way too good to pass on. I'd absolutely discuss trading down to 3 or 4 for the right package though

Sundin and Chayka have already outperformed Treliving with their lottery ball juju

Gavin Flipping McKenna holy crap.

Simmons is a dolt. His line of questioning is completely devalued because he always has to show the world how much of a dick he is. I polled 20 people and all of them thought he was loser . Can Steve comment on how much of loser he is?

Pelley left a terrible taste in my mouth when he started his MLSE tenure by talking about it being about results and not jersey sales...and then proceeded to monetize everything under the sun while also nickel and diming the players/staff. The less we see/hear from him the better. I have no...

My viewpoint on the team has shifted over the last few years. I'm in my 40s. I have never seen the Leafs in a Cup Finals. The Gilmour and Sundin Leafs are still the upper echelon for me but I also acknowledge that I have had more fun watching the Matthews-Marner Leafs over a full 82 games...

It's true. It's also probably true that we shouldn't blame Chayka/Sundin for the faults of Shanahan. Nor should we be blaming any iteration of the team for 1968-present. They deserve the chance to screw it up. Shanahan started hot with the rebranding stuff but when push came to shove he...

And if they do, they will have one less fan because I'm checking out on this iteration of the franchise.
