They did do that a lot this season.

Dangle is a national tressure

celest zephyr
Trav totally didn’t get his job because he knows one of the owners of the leafs
The true question is what dirt shanahan has to still have a job
dim kettle
He does a lot of good. But I'll just leave this reminder about his trades with Dougie Hamilton and Matthew Tkachuk and leave it at that.
celest zephyr
Nah i just don’t see him being the guy that puts them over the top
Especially with his ufa moves
Glad they got their guy before the draft though
Since its better to have a new regime beforehand
dim kettle
I know from experience. I hope you love the word "mediocrity"
celest zephyr
Though with shanahan there doesn’t really matter
I already ‘love it’
I’m used to it
It’s not going to work out and within five years they’ll find some other guy
dim kettle
Also, he goes through so many coaches.
celest zephyr
Hey so its the same thing
Another coaching carousel
Trust the shanaplan
For one second round appearance
Can someone boot his ass out already?
Tbh kinda want to just not watch the leafs until this man is sent to russia

You'll watch the Leafs because Steve Dangle yells "ARE YOU IN?" every year.
So anyways, I like I said earlier, I'd kindly take Nylander and Marner for Lucic and Ritchie.
Gotta have that North American grit in Treliving Land.
celest zephyr
So anyways, I like I said earlier, I'd kindly take Nylander and Marner for Lucic...
You’ll get gustavasson and you’ll like it
In all seriousness the leafs are already trying to do that
So really again nothing new
Just a nothing burger of a move the more i learn about it
He’s not going to make them noticeably worse, but he won’t make them a contender

Damn now I feel bad for badmouthing him so much

Actually... The Celtics entirely are a very sorry team. no mental
they got no coaching and prob no bench energy

Finals game 1 tonight 
celest zephyr
They are mentally weak but they have a great bench
Really? Idk i think a b2b mvp and miami are pretty good
Yessir
Worst case would be something like Orlando and Minnesota
Silver would be fuming

When is the moral victories finals happening of Celtics vs Lakers in Cancún ?

@robust grotto you ready for sutter to be your next head coach?
Perfect hire
He’s experienced at failure
And the rangers are going to refuse to get someone new
Even though they probably should because it beats guys like gallant
robust grotto
<@615262274419949583> you ready for sutter to be your next head coach?
I’ll take him, Hynes, Q, and Lavi staff please
And the did go new once but the owner was scarred by the rebuild after only a year so then he signed a free agent winger to a league record deal and also traded for a defensive defenseman and gave him 8 mil for 8 years because that’s what rebuilding teams do
Whatever, im excited for offseason news
celest zephyr
Hahahahahah
Yeah same
Sheesh Toronto lost 467 man games due to injury this season
Yet they still made the playoffs
This team is cursed to make the playoffs despite half of the damn team being on ir
Does one year even count lmao
Like it ain’t really a rebuild if you suck for one year then panic
COME TO OUR GAMESSSSS! IF YOU BRING 10 OR MORE PEOPLE, YOU CAN SAVE MONEY!!! WE NEED PEOPLE TO FILL OUR SEATS

They threw him under the bus.

I said I was mad at the Leafs and this definitely one of the reasons
dim kettle
I get Kyle didn't get the job done and assumed the cap would expand when signing JT. But there was many, many problems other than him
rustic mountain
Feels shitty in maple leaf land
dim kettle
Clearly was a power struggle there. And Brendan Shanahan's time there is ticking down at the moment.
rustic mountain
Just a fucking shame dude
You were right about Canadian teams not getting with the times
dim kettle
Considering I'm a fan of a team there, I know this full well.
rustic mountain
Just makes me sad. I hope Dubas does well in Pittsburgh
dim kettle
BTW, enjoy the walking mediocrity known as Brad Treliving
rustic mountain
Yeah. Another reason I am angry at the Leafs
Needless to say I might be watching way more Oilers games next year

I'll be in Edmonton next week, I'll take lotsa pics of the store and arena just for you Shadow

You see, this is part of the year I don't care about football stuff till pre season.
Not that there's a lot to care about in Tampa Bay this year
rustic mountain
Me either. Pats beat writers have been overhyping BOB calling plays and Tyquan Thornton has more muscle mass I guess
dim kettle
I talk and know a lot of about football, but the sport isn't even my second favorite. I can only tolerate so much football compared to hockey and baseball.
rustic mountain
Hockey is shooting up the boards for me man. I find myself more interested in like all of it
I don't find myself hating full teams either like I do with football. Just fucking Matthew Tkachuk but even then I feel that softening. I just like the sport and am growing to love it more
robust grotto
Tkachuk is so much more enjoyable than Marchand or Lucic ever were
Ofc I understand why you’d hate him but yeah; he’s such a talent
Right now there aren’t too many unlikable players or teams for me either
rustic mountain
I admit I am amazed by him at times
dim kettle
Selfishly hoping this final is a quick one lol
No. gotta milk those ratings and make this channel salty at the chance of Eichel or Matthew Tkachuk getting closer to winning cup.
robust grotto
Ofc I’ll always hate the Devils
rustic mountain
Idk. I find myself turning into like the Hockey Guy on youtube

Tkachuk is so much more enjoyable than Marchand or Lucic ever were
You have no idea how happy i am Lucic is finally a UFA.
robust grotto
I wish he could be a little harsher on gms or teams but I understand not wanting to pick on fan bases
robust grotto
You have no idea how happy i am Lucic is finally a UFA.
Dude he looked really happy these past 2 weeks in Europe
It’s amazing what that tournament can do for guys. Get away from shit a NHL environment and play loose hockey again
dim kettle
Yeah, I listened to his interview on Flames talk a day or 2 ago. Still thinking about where he's going next.
BTW he kept the trophy

NO! JBB. DON'T YOU DARE!

Anytime a western conference player comes to the rangers it’s always like “it’s not always long plane rides but we take trains and buses here?? And I’m home the same night after most road games?? This is sweet”

rustic mountain
We are gonna get bounced in the first round all over again man
Only this time Lucic is gonna fight 6 dudes and spit on their coach

Opposite for me
Football has shot up the ranks
Used to be more of a basketball and hockey fan
But now football is on par if not higher
Though granted as a leafs fan hockey can’t be number 1 lol
rustic mountain
Football is just something that has been with me since I was like 4
dim ledge
But now football is on par if not higher
Pros of choosing a good team 🙂
rustic mountain
And I feel like since I only knew that and baseball really, some basketball, I never had the chance of getting into hockey really?
The niche but not niche sport at our school was soccer
Closest hockey team was 5 or more hours away and no one gave a shit
dim kettle
I would watch more basketball if hockey wasn't also on at the same time most nights. Always been like that. It's why I don't like talking into depth with the NBA season. Just means little to me to talk about.
celest zephyr
I agree honestly
It’s hard to keep both at a high priority
With basketball going up for me this season watching the warriors hockey had to drop
Whereas nfl is just once a week
So i can just focus on watching that one maybe two games with like tnf/mnf and then do the rest
dim kettle
I've been a Magic for a good 15 years now. But a reminder that basketball was the last sport I got into as a kid and even back then I considered myself a Dwight fan than a Magic fan for awhile.
celest zephyr
Through sb nation it was kinda all three to some degree
Never really got into baseball ever
dim kettle
I have a baseball family, so it was easy to get into for me.
rustic mountain
Baseball was the sport I started with playing wise
Same
I apparently had two great great uncles who played for the giants for like a year back in the 40s?
Something like that
They werent blood so no clue

celest zephyr
I’d rather have normal ham or bacon
robust grotto
It’s worth a try dude lmao it’s not that crazy or anything
robust grotto
I don’t really go for Taylor ham often though, if I’m honest. Once in a blue moon
dim kettle
It probably isn't that good for you having it every day.
robust grotto
You absolutely cannot have that every day lmfao
celest zephyr
Considering there are some people who have McDonald’s every day
Idk i guess someone might try lol
short flame
Never liked bagels anyways
Come try some at Montreal. I hated bagged bagels and still do but those from a special place in Montreal have some excellent bagels. I still have to add a lot of cream cheese and prosciutto otherwise I won’t be able to eat them
celest zephyr
Yeah bagged bagels ain’t it

So tasty though
That looks good

Or from like generic fast-food chains

No its pain

when they can no longer play
celest zephyr
Especially cuz the amount of environmental factors
They could but why bother getting hurt playing hockey or basketball lmao
rustic mountain
I mean golf would be the least physically taxing sport you could play
dim kettle
The physical injuries aren't even the worst thing in basketball long term. It's all that running back and forth that slowly hurts the heart.
calm mulch
idk why but i do really think they start playing these to keep the competitive nature in check
they are too passionate about it
same with poker and bouré
celest zephyr
Not just the heart but a lot of tendons and stuff like that
Lots of old guys complain about even walking after finishing their careers
calm mulch
Basketball in recent years is the perfect speedrun how to tear all your ligaments and nerves

today

This is going to be a good series
both teams are VERY fundamental
move the ball well
rustic mountain
Eh I probably will just catch the final scores and highlights later
At least the first couple games
calm mulch
Also, i love that ratings complainers are malding at these "small market" teams making the finals
Adam Silver is crying blood right now
I won the moment the Heat advanced to the finals
rustic mountain
Never a bad thing for a small market team to make it
Baseball had the Royals for a couple years and it made it more fun
calm mulch
Well
the media hates it
and i see so many no brainers saying they hate it cuz no Lakers vs Celtics every damn year
no team is ever allowed to win for the first time
rustic mountain
I mean there were some fun Lakers Celtics series, but at the same time most of those are super old
I'd rather as a more casual fan get something new
Though I didnt want Butler in the finals but oh well
calm mulch
I'd rather as a more casual fan get something new
i would like to* think "casuals" and people that know the sport very well would prefer for it to be competitive
Hating on small markets is simply stupid
there is no logic behind it
The better team wins
rustic mountain
As a fan, using the smaller market makes it boring argument is stupid I agree
Even I admit that the Panthers in hockey are fun af to watch
People are dumb
calm mulch
idk if it is because my background is soccer
but i love an underdog story
and cinderella runs
rustic mountain
Nah a lot of people do
Media just makes it all about big market teams
Why do you think the Cowboys get talked about like they've won a super bowl recently every year when it has been nearly 30 years
calm mulch
Btw as a sports fan i can only imagine the feeling of playing and being crucial part of a team that did a cinderalla run as a underdog to win it all
i would cry so much lol

Saw that earlier. Really there was never any doubt he played through an injury in order to avoid missing out on that trade. Not that I would want to sign him but actually put me down as someone who wouldn’t be surprised if he pulls out a really clutch postseason or surprisingly good numbers in about 16 months time
The guy really couldn’t move lol but he wasn’t this completely ineffective player. His brain would compensate for the speed issue at times, it’ll be interesting to see his future
