The whole team should be sent over to China to train with the Shaolin Monks.
The 36 chambers will fix their game REAL quick.

Listening to this broken record on such a regular basis certainly tires me out.

Zee said:I really hope Burke swallows his pride and looks to re-make this team into something tougher than it currently is. He should rely heavily on what Carlyle sees/doesn't see in the current roster makeup after his 18 game "tryout". Look for players who :
a) have played well for Carlyle previously
b) have played well in a defensive-responsible system ANYWHERE
This team needs to become a boring as hell to watch, but wins on most nights type of team. Low amount of scoring chances, clog up the neutral zone, chip and hammer on the boards. Get any kind of player who's had success playing in a system like that. Totally revamp the team.
Please note: Phil Kessel scored 36 goals playing with Claude Julien's team that gave up the fewest goals in the league in 2008/2009, so he can stay.

He already turned over the roster completely while preaching truculence and toughness.

Yeah but we stink, for real this time. ;D ;D

I appreciate the sentiment and I agree to one extent or another but that media/fan reaction is a symptom of the team's performance.
bustaheims said:In many (probably even most) cases, the same complaints being fielded now were being made earlier in the season when the team was winning and held a playoff spot. They're just louder now that the team is bottoming out.
Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate said:Anyhow, I am all in for blowing 'er up this summer. BB made a terrible mistake turning down those 1sts at the deadline, but he painted himself into a corner when he gave the premature extension to Wilson. Now we are paying for it.
Zee said:This is what bothers me. Leafs are always paying for Burke's mistakes and stupid moves. Anyone could have seen that the first round picks would have been great, you get rid of players off the roster, clear up cap room, get picks back and build. They're going to have to turn over this roster ANYWAY, why didn't he start at the deadline, admit he was wrong and move on? Instead we get this...mess.

Yup, late first round picks in an extremely shallow draft and cap space for what is probably the worst UFA crop since this style of free agency was introduced into the NHL . . . that's what will turn this team around.
