Leafs' Prospect/Marlies Discussion Thread!

Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

Guy is so ready for a promotion. TDL can't come soon enough to clear out some dead wood.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

Good stuff. That head looks like it would do better than average at withstanding the impact of an elbow.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

I speak from experience. I once had a linebacker break his fist on my forehead and didn't fall down.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

Were you smart enough to drop your forehead as he was punching or did he just have poor aim?

Caught me at the top. We were both stinking drunk. It was 30 years ago. Memory a bit foggy.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

hahahah, post more Beleafer, you are one of the smartest men I have ever come across. Post more. Its safe now bro, us older guys, are actually looking at a real freaking hockey team. The Shanahan rope a dope has pretty much ended and they have injected a top four dman and a top nine, top six guy into the lineup. Post away.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

Might be smarter if I didn't take that 10-stitch shot to my head.

Easier to post now that the Leafs aren't a shitshow. In fact, it sure feels like they're building the model NHL franchise. Really confident that they won't do the old lurch for the missing piece at the first whiff of them having a good team. Keep that pipeline filled and groom away.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

If there is a lurch, I don't want it to involve Liljegren. He has a lot to work with naturally. All he needs now is to start training his stick like Auston.
 
Re: Leafs' Prospect Discussion Thread!

Name one that has.
Probably the last Cup winner that did it was Los Angeles, when they acquired Mike Richards and Jeff Carter prior to winning their first Cup.

And the last team to win the Cup after spending big on rentals was Carolina, back in 2006.

It's certainly the exception, rather than the rule.

Yep, it terms of TDL rentals those two stand.

However, find me one that only recently started a rebuild and then went on to win by finding their one missing piece, let alone at the TDL.

LA probably is the closest thing to it. You could argue that Carter was the piece that pushed them over the top, and he was a TDL acquisition.

But they were probably a good 2-3 years farther along into their rebuild at that point than Toronto currently is.
