Leafs 2023-2024 Thread

N Y L A N D E R ! ! !
2 games, 3 goals, 5 pts
carrying Tavares he of 5 assists
and Domi he of 1
 
Leafs have more toughness this year, but I have to give credit to Simmonds and Clifford. They tried their best to make the team tougher in limited roles the past couple of years. Although I'm not a fan of fighting I admire enforcers and what they do for their teammates.

I guarantee that the Habs aren't scared. Reaves will have his head on a swivel looking out WiFi the next time they play Montreal. And Reaves would have to a) be on the ice at the same time as Bedard; and b) be fast enough to catch him 😉

Reaves said he's looking for round 2.
 
Big matchup tonight, Bedard vs Matthews. The Leafs usually suck on Monday/Tuesday night games and they play down to weaker teams. This could be a stinker for the Leafs. Maybe Woll will steal the show for the Leafs?

I'm fine with playing 3 times a year if it means more Mcdavid and Makar. But they could do a better job of scheduling. Oct, March and April makes no sense.

March and April makes sense, Leafs are making a push for a playoff spot, Montreal could play spoilers or could fight for a Wildcard.

I'm as big a Habs fan as you'll ever find and even I don't think that the Habs had any chance of making the playoffs this year. With Dach out long term, our slim chance is now none.

They made the playoffs ranked 24th and 18th not too long ago. Dream the dream.

They also had a HOF goalie who was playing out of his mind. Can't see Jake Allen coming close to that.

They also had a captain who would staple you to the boards if you took liberty with any of his teammates.

Even with a healthy Dach I don't see the Habs making the playoffs. The East is too strong especially with the upstarts Buffalo and Ottawa knocking on the door. If he can stay healthy enough I see Caufield with a 40+ goal season. I think Kaden Guhle will develop nicely and they made a great move bringing in Alex Newhook.

This is a team that shows it is built for playoff success. A good playoff team needs defense to win. And, as the saying goes, the best defense is a good offense.

At this point, it is clear that the Leafs have the league's best offense, hence the best playoff descent. Matthews on pace for 246 goals

I have to agree with you, this team is built for “playoff success“, that’s why every team would love to play the Leafs for that guaranteed success.

3 games and they’ve given up at least 4 goals in each one, this is why they will fail in the playoffs.

3 games into into the season and this is how the Leafs are going to play in the playoffs? They have plenty of time to fix things, it's a long season.

What I hated the most was that Corey Perry scored the game winner instead of Conner Bedard. This game was a complete dud, it wasn't the Mathews-Bedard show.

Are people placing too much pressure on Connor Bedard? They keep mentioning he didn't score against the Leafs.
