Aw who knows what Leaf version shows up.  They constantly surprise do the unexpected.

 

[freer]

Just win. PLEASE

 

[Stronger Than All]

Please win

 

[Redleaf]

Carlyle says Bolland is "probable" to return tonight.

Bolland is getting one more assessment done to be certain.

Bernier is still not 100 percent. Will not play. Still day-to-day

 

[Redleaf]

If the recent past is any indication of how tonight's game will play out.....Reimer will let a weak goal or two in during the first period, and the game will be an uphill battle the rest of the way.....

As much as most of us are happy to have Bolland back, I think the team would be better off getting Bernier back in goal!

 

[ZBBM]

We're not going to miss the playoffs, folks.  Two wins this weekend on our way to finishing with 91 points and squeaking in.

But we'll lose in the first round 4-2.

 

[AvroArrow]

I hope the Leafs lose.  Probably an unpopular opinion, and there's always the chance nothing changes even if they miss the playoffs, but I'm just sick of the sucking.

 

[Redleaf]

Note to Carlyle: Don't be afraid to put in MacIntyre tonight, should the need arise!

What recent past is that?

 

[sickbeast]

It's really a shame how many great players Carlyle has run out of town. Reimer, grabovski, Clarke MacArthur, plus others. He is doing more damage than a bad gm would.

The recent past where the Leafs were playing with 2 lines and zero defencemen.

Last I checked, Reimer is still on the team and the Leafs are ahead of MacArthur and Grabovski's new teams.

What does their respective team's standings have to do with the quality of the individual players?  Colton Orr's team is ahead of Alex Ovechkin's team - so what?

Whichever one you wanna run with, I suppose?

Also, Reimer is 110% gone this summer. I'll bet anything on it.

Dreger "Bolland does something every shift. I thought similar of Getzlaf when watching Anaheim win their Cup"

Oh my...

 

[CarltonTheBear]

"We'll see how the game goes," Carlyle said. "Obviously you'd like to get more people involved the hockey game. Everybody talks about a four-line game. Four lines this, four lines that but we haven't been really went that mode.

I love this team.

It certainly looks this way. I just hope something of value is coming back. When Bernier was first acquired I had high hopes for a half decent return on Reimer. Now... not so much.

I'm guessing that MacArthur and grabovski each have several times more points Clarkson and the leafs could have had both of them for considerably less than what they pay Clarkson. We as fans need to wake up and realize the fact that the people running this team right now are incompetent. This is burkes team.
