Wild @ Leafs - Oct. 15th, 7:00pm - SN, TSN 1050

And Carlyle logic would be.  Keep Orr.  Demote guys like Smith.

Also with his two assists so far tonight Franson has 6 points in 7 games so far.  He's going to get P-A-I-D.

The Leafs are like a Terminator sent back in time to destroy shot-based hockey stat analysis before it can win the war

haha
 
So I guess home ice calls don't exist anymore.  Some of this stuff has been legitimate but 4 PPs to 1 now.
 
Same thing that plagued this team last year is no different this year. Outplayed most nights and relying on goaltending to win. Defensive coverage is atrocious. Team gives up way too many chances each and every night. You think Nonis would have addressed that. Again like I have said even when Wilson was here. Is it the defence, the forwards or everybody. Can't keep playing like this. MacLean absolutely right leaving Reimer hanging out to dry. I like Clarkson but I think definitely overpayment and I think the money could have been used elsewhere. You think they would have learnt something from the ending to last season. Game 7 against the Bruins wasn't just a one time thing they were outplayed, outshot in a lot of games it was Reimer who bailed them out on most nights. I couldn't be happier with the start but brings back memories of a lot of games last year. Gotta change.

Pretty weak UFA class in totality. The issue I have is that defensive play is the easiest to teach and it just seems that they don't follow ANY system.

I know there wasn't much for free agents but I think Nonis put himself in a bind with some of the signings. Just wondering if they could have made a trade for someone to help the defense. Maybe they thought Ranger might come through and still early he might return to the way he played. Like you said and I feel the same I think it's the players. Too many giveaways each night and it was a concern when Wilson was here. Needs to change.
