What do the leafs do if they are truly back in this year? They have way too many bodies that have little value they need to add a blueliner and they could use an impact forward. But I wouldn’t move any of Cowan danford or holinka tuff spot to be in.

I thought that Philip Myers had a very good game against the Devils.
If he could play like that every game he’d have value.
He’s from my home town of Moncton; that’s one reason for tooting his horn.

I believe this game tonight will signify if leafs are going to push for playoff spot or if it's going to go further south. jets lost 7 in a row and leafs are playing the best hockey of there season, so a loss tonight can be devastating on there season. gonna be a tough game. leafs better be on tonight cause these are the games that can crush momentum mentally.

Just talk to McDavid buddy, he said he wants to be a leaf but he needs to know how they finish the season and what the summer brings, he's not coming unless toronto is showing they wanna continue to be a playoff team or starting over, I had a feeling something was strange to this season and I guess it's for gd reason. let's pray.

Leafs need to use the ltir on tanev and Joshua, but I bet they won't, is why I believe hockey fixed, u know for sure and ill put money on tanev not returning. So they can use ltir and sign someone, as for Joshua, not 100% sure but I would put him on ltir and count him out for season as well, we could use this and add significantly. but my guess is they'll wait till deadline snd then decide on things I already know, I wouldn't put part anything, that tanev will soon retire due to injury, if leafs wait and decide there foolish, which will mean they quit on season, if they do, might as well be sellers, tank and build a new team. they need more canadian local players to be on this team. do not wait more then 10 days to decide. either ltir or sign marquee players and go for it. we cant wait for the what ifs.

If Joseph woll plays like this every time, we might have a shot..we should run woll and hildeby all the time, trade stolarz, even tho I like stolarz and he's good, this is wolls team, I was against the extension for stolarz I thought money should have been used elsewhere..with tanev done for season of career, ltir money..stolarz trade and now we got bucks for a top player or 2..maybe even more money if Joshua is done..i expect big signings are coming, by deadline if there in playoffs spot for but def in summer..

What i don't get is, how leafs start to roll then again there affected by injuries..leafs are targeted in this fix league, players get,away with everything they do to us and if we injure someone we get suspended and top punishment..this league us against the leafs..it's messed up..we need to get rid of the sports writers and leafs media..I haven't watched one game this year but I read up on everything.. im like sickend by how the media does us..reminds me of the same thing on here..it's that 50/50 thing damned if we do, and damned if we don't, one person says it's good proposal the other says it's bad..same with the media...they way were treated when it comes to suspension and injuries..it's too hard to watch are leafs get this treatment..that's y I haven't watched this year...mysterious things go on..
30 Dec 2025 21:53:03
You realize earlier that you posted you haven't watched a "full game" yet this year. Now you are saying you haven't watched this year.
30 Dec 2025 13:36:24
I was the first one to mention matthews for misa plus now it's being talked about every where, im telling ya, if leafs miss playoffs, I believe it will happen..i truly believe, it will be the sharks, or redwings...two teams that will be the cats meow next season...Detroit is real gd already..but hopefully leafs turn it around in make it in..if they do, it's a wc spot..but that 55pts..gonna be tough...I also like the article today about Zacha..he's been a descent player..I truly believe maccelli will be gone..
30 Dec 2025 18:15:53
You were the first to mention Matthews for Misa were you?
I posted this;
This trade is assuming Matthews still holds good value (Hughes like) .
And he waives of course
SJ
Matthews $13.25M
Tor
Gaudette $2M (for cap reasons)
Misa ELC
Musty ELC
Chernyshov ELC
Wetsch unsigned.
2026 1st (EDM)
Then you wrote on the talk side;
"Rlf your matthews trade to the Sharks was the best proposal I seen you make. I too was saying matthews should be traded to the sharks. "
You went on to say how you aren't very good at proposals and values though.
Let me get my popcorn out incase you respond.
31 Dec 2025 00:45:55
And I traded for Misa and Musty and picks the day before RLF.
So topher, are you watching or not? LOL.
31 Dec 2025 10:42:32
Rsears. Yes, as a response to my trade prop of Misa and Gaudette, you said you would want at least Musty as well. You felt Matthews would get a Hughes like return. So I posted the big prop above referencing the Hughes type of return.
Point was in regards to topher and more of his claims.
01 Jan 2026 01:29:02
You can look back RLF but I think you poo-pooed my trade for Misa, Musty and a 1st and 2nd in 2026.
But who really cares, it wasn’t topher.
01 Jan 2026 15:43:07
Rsears. I did actually go back and look before I posted. As you and I have said, point was, it wasn't Topher as he claims.

I'm starting to wonder if Stolarz doesn't have something like vertigo. We saw no apparent injury, so something like this holding him out would make sense.
Plus, other guys are getting $5K fines for blatant stick swinging with intent and McMann gets a game for what he did. Good luck figuring that one out.
29 Dec 2025 20:44:17
Leafs tax!
30 Dec 2025 14:05:50
Vertigo doesn’t last 2 months yes it can come and go but I don’t think it’s that I think it’s something that’s not allowing him to have full mobility.
30 Dec 2025 17:27:21
Goat, Vertigo symptoms can last for months depending on what type of vertigo (what is the cause of it) . Not sure where you are getting the idea that it doesn't last two months.
For instance, in golf, David Duval went from world #1 to not being able to play for quite some time because of vertigo. Stolarz has had concussions, and vertigo is more likely to develop in people who have had multiple concussions.
You may be right on the mobility issue, but again, there is no video evidence that anyone can find that shows where he may have been injured. He's been out for about 7 weeks. You would think a mobility issue would have been resolved by now. No? Or the Leafs would say lower body issue. Leafs are saying nothing, which is why a normal kind of injury is seeming less likely.
31 Dec 2025 00:47:25
Vertigo's duration varies wildly by cause, from seconds (like BPPV) to hours (Ménière's, migraines) or days (vestibular neuritis), sometimes lasting weeks or months with underlying conditions; episodes can be brief or prolonged, but identifying the root cause (like inner ear crystals or migraines) is key to managing it, as severe cases impact daily life significantly.

Leaf breakdowns in detroit appear again
Definitely an issue going forward
Hildeby held them in the contest
Lucky to get a point
Moral victory is useless
Game was there for the taking
28 Dec 2025 14:31:09
If the Matthews, McMann, Domi line keeps working, that opens a ton of options for the next 3 lines. I have wanted to see McMann with Matthews for a long time. So far, it looks like a good compliment to each others game. Domi is also playing with a lot more physicality and passion.
28 Dec 2025 22:24:18
I give it until the next loss before it goes back to Mathews-Knies-X
Keefe and Berube can't seem to help themselves.
