[Kin]

Watching the Sportsnet commercial trying to sell this game as being relevant in any way was pretty sad.

 

[Rebel_1812]

I think it is relevant for those that want a job next year.

 

[TML fan]

I think it is relevant for those that want a job next year.

Hopefully those people will be playing the game, not watching it on Sportsnet.

 

[ZBBM]

Rooting for the team to be booed ONTO the ice.

i cant boo the team. And I dont hope the loose. SO GLG

BTW was not happy with the Habs page coming up this morning.

Can't wait for tonight's episode of Loser and Loserer.

 

[Redleaf]

So, with the position the Leafs are in right now, they are better off losing every game so they can hopefully get a better player using a higher draft pick?

Having said that, tonight will be the end of the losing streak, and a winning streak will begin, that will keep this team in the running up until the final game of the year?


Anyone care to finish this prediction?

I am saying they win 4-1

Dont see them winning this one. Calgary plays HARD. Burke would want nothing more than a win.

The Flames apparently have the most goals scored of any team since the trade deadline.

I was excited to see the team with a 5 game winning streak and 93 points, basically where I expected them to be....the I remembered what morning this was.   

 

[Boston Leaf]

Not the least bit excited for this game tongiht. They ahve sucked the hockey life out of me. I will watch but another loss is jsut another loss. Numb to the season

Do you live in Boston? That would be the ultimate test for me as Leaf fan. I probably would've jumped ship.

 

[lamajama]

The Leafs will not win until the chances are .01% of making
the playoffs. Then they will run the table with wins just to screw up the draft pick.

This, unlike the collapses, is the only consistency we will see from these guys.

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

there are two game sevens in the first round of OHL playoffs tonight! Enjoy one of those instead. In a game that means something

 

[Jalili]

A win tonight would probably put the Leafs out of contention in finishing in the 6th or 7th spot for draft position.

Agreed. I really hope Carlyle is giving it to the players and reminding them of how much important this game is for their playoff chances.

That way I really don't see them winning.

Once the pressure is off though, they'll ride off into the sunset on a 4 or 5 game winning streak.

 

[Redleaf]

Out of curiosity, which team should we, as TML Fans, collectively cheer for after the Leafs are officially out?
