I agree, I wanna remain competitive while letting the youth in, and we’re doing that well, but right now the youth like Kronwall, Colaiacovo, Harrison, and Wozniewsky are better then half their defense core.

I don’t see any problem with O’neill, 1.5 for 25 goals, if the hole forward crew was like that you’d only have spent 18 million on your forwards and you be getting 300 goals from your forwards alone.

The more we win the longer we delay the inevitable.”

I don’t think its as inevitable as many people are saying on this site – although i do admire the realism of the statement because it is often true in hockey and in any other sport.

that being said, there is no need for the leafs to start finishing in the 17th-30th spots in the NHL and rebuild through the draft. they can still remain competitive while incorporating young players which they have been doing all season long. and i don’t think its ‘delaying’ anything when you are playing rookies.

but yes, hopefully JFJ will stop making the dumb decisions to sign guys like O’Neill, Domi, Khavanov, Berg, etc. that simply take up roster space from young guys.

This isn’t NHL 06, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN!

Your gonna have to watch this team struggle, it has to happen, the leafs have to suck in order to draft well…then the upswing begins. All we have to hope for is that MLSE minds its own business.

There is a slight chance the leafs can stay good and “rebuild” but the only true way were gonna get anywhere is by losing. The more we win the longer we delay the inevitable.

Thats on the Leafs Front page??? He is not 16 years old…
Anyways, are the jersey numbers really necessary?
Why the hell would we want Mike Peca? He sucks now, he has blown out knees, their are plenty of other better choices besides him.
All of your trades are retarded, Khavononv and White for Cujo, it would take more than that to get Cujo, consider the other teams that also will be in the race, if they cant give up better then khavonov and white then thats sad…
The Leafs do not need another grinder in Peca, if anything they need better chemistry on offense, not another has been center, were loaded at center. If we ever dealt belfour it would be for defense. We need defense to win not a waste on the 3rd or 4th line.
Antropov for Witt, is that a joke! thats it, you think thats what the caps are going to want for this guy, you think the leafs are the only on in the running for him, do you think Antropov will kill everyone elses offers? you gotta be kidding me!
Allison for Foote, why would colombus want another center when they have fedorov, Allison would have nobody to play with, and Foote is old, we could do better then that, like i said your trades are retarded!
Roberts and Niewendyk, thank god we didnt resign them, have you seen them this season, they suck, and roberts is basically handicapped, like i said before Florida could get a better deal for the both of them.
Your trades did absolutely nothing for the team except make them older and slower.
Rethink your ideas please before you post an article like that.
What are you shooting for a 1st round knock out or a competitor?
Realize also the salary cap..
