But why would the presence of Fox make ADA superfluous? They go hand in hand. Fox sees less time against a checking pair because the opposition doesn’t know who to focus on. ADA the same. This is an awesome problem to have. One lesser but more complete player vs one less well rounded but close to elite on the offensive side of the puck. The year we last one many many eons ago was led by a defenseman not named Leetch in scoring who was also considered not good at all defensively. I’d like that to happen again. Everyone has a role.

We both know eye test says otherwise. One is a great skater with extremely above average offense and the other is, well, has great lineage? I’d like him here just as I liked when we had an offensive guy like Zubov doing his one dimensional thing along the way to success.

Shesh might score if they pull hutch again

Watch them take this goal away Lol

Bing bang boom buh bye!

Ruff has nothing to do with defense! :p

Doesn't this timeout just give the Leafs the Chance to guarantee that Matthews line the rest of the game

It almost looks like that gif of Ovechkin gliding with the Xbox reconnect controller. It's like playing the whole shift down a man

Just don't play Kakko late in the third please? Literally he's useless in his own zone.

Maybe Buch just needs glasses. His expression is sort of squinty most of the time.

All 3 of them are already on the team and ADA is producing at the pace he's at. He's outlr best offensive defenseman. It's honestly not even close in my mind. He's more dynamic. There's nothing wrong with having d with different roles. He's not even as bad defensively as he's made out to be. He won't en any Norris but he plays with Marc Staal and still manages right now to be a +

Instead of a cam on one player, I'd rather have an on ice mic uncensored lol

It was a shitty call but Fox has to make that play without that being an icing. I know he shits sprinkles and pisses rainbows but still.

Nothing pumps up this original 6 match up at the Garden quite like Queen.... Lol

It's not so much that as it is I'm looking bigger picture IMO. Hank in no way is part of our future. Georgie probably isn't either but i do think he's a very capable NHL goalie. Keeping him and trading him a year or two down the road probably brings you more than it does today in my mind. Besides, as I also said, even if u look at it as not doing this to keep Georgie and instead gave the job to Shesh and brought up a Huska at 995k, the extra 2m cap space csn mean the difference in retaining an ADA or Strome when otherwise they might fall just short. As for the good soldier. I mean be helped run Torts out of town. He's also been treated very very well here. They made several cup runs with him. It just didn't work. Everyone has their time. It's now for him. It's just at a point where he detracts to this team more than he helps. Him and Staal both need to go for the good of our future. Better or equal players in the history of this sport have been cut, traded, not tendered, etc. I'm just not willing to see a point where someone like ADA or Stroke gets away because we "owe" the King his Swan song

Leafs look tired

That was harder to not score lol

Lol keep trying to pick that stick up Hutchie. My God r they in trouble if Anderson is really hurt

What, you didn't like that own zone effort? Lol

Gonna have to wake up and start playing again. Starting to get dominated.

Gonna be hard to do that with the King goodbye tour.

Shesh and Georgie are gonna be some sick tandem for the next 3 years

Fast 7x7

Lol the only time you'll see Breadman pass on a 2 v 1 is with Staal

I love Lemieux but he's just, never going to get the benefit of the doubt
