That's probably why we're at where we're at. We have globe trotters, not winners... entertainment.

Regular season! Who cares!

How do you afford a supporting cast?

If he craps the bed in the playoffs again I cannot imagine the noise will be tolerable enough for him to stay, both management and the player will feel the need to move on. The Leafs will not implode if he goes.

If that's Lorentz's goal, it's a high stick. I don't know how they gave him the goal without overturning it. Since it was a goal, I would have thought they couldn't tell for sure whether he touched or not therefore it's Benoit's goal. It doesn't really matter, just odd that they seem to conclude...

I just wanted to say that "superman" punch was ridiculous.

Meh, it's nice to have enough depth guys healthy to have options.

He did score with our goalie pulled against an actual goalie. Why was he on the ice?

Sure, I just don't think we necessarily have all the details.

That's in theory what I understand. Could it be fabricated? Absolutely.

Then it's settled... You might be right but it's also beyond ridiculous to run back the same shit 8 or 9 times? I think there's a better argument knowing they cannot win with this core. Whether they get better or worse without Marner is yet to be determined.

I exported 16/17 to Current, Playoff Points Per Game, Top 100 (at least 20 games played). I then added 23/24 cap hit column. I then divided the cap hit by playoff-point-per-game to get a value score. Sorted by worse value: 1. Tavares 2. Matthews 5. Nylander 13. Marner 33. Rielly Others inside...

As Guru pointed out regarding playoff points per game: It's NOT good. Since '16-'17 Marner and Matthews are 38 and 39 on the list of points per playoff game. Nylander is #59. Rielly #89. Tavares #122. Add in cap hit per point you would see how little value the Leafs have gotten.

Or that they rather have Rantanen.

It's not, cap-hit playoff points per game our guys are garbage.

He was a very poop-ular guy.

Who's going to step when you have 4 guys making 8 figures upfront? It better be the guys making 8 figures. They cannot afford a supporting cast! Points last playoffs: Domi (4) Bertuzzi (4) Knies (3) Matthews (4) Marner (3) Nylander (3)

It's insane to blame the supporting cast when considering how much of the salary cap the core takes up.

Wild revelation, I just hope Marner crushes it in the playoffs and earns his next contract. If he does not crush it I am not positive Trev would be willing to bring him back at the cap hit he will get. Maybe Marner will be the one who decides to sign elsewhere anyway. I am somewhat glad Trev is...
