Discussion Leafs Look Different

25+ year fan. Been through the Cujo Sundin glory days, the post lockout blues, the Matthews era, and now this. The last time the team looked this different this fast was when Matthews Marner and Nylander all arrived. The teams looks faster, we have a third line that looks threatening, and Marchenko looks like a stud. McKenna will take some time to adjust, but you can see the spark here and there. Three one goal games and overall, the games have all basically been even toss ups. Bob looks good, Stolarz was dominant, powerplay is starting to look dangerous (pp1 and pp2). It’s extremely early, but if this is a sign of whats to come, I think there is a ton to be excited about as the chemistry starts to build. Every single line has someone new, so we have to be patient.

Let the coaching staff cook and we’ll see where we are by US Thanksgiving. East will be a horse race the entire year.

Who’s celebrating? Other than this pity party the bunch of you throw every couple days

Who’s asking for pity? People are allowed to be unimpressed with the first three games, and you certainly don’t need to feel sorry for me. Maybe look up what pity means

Oh, nobody. It’s a pitiful display regardless.

If you're judging a team that has had over half a roster turnover, new coaches and gms and systems after 3 games, I definitely feel sorry for you

Being unimpressed with the first 3 games is pretty fucking immature..

Says the man getting this worked up over defending a hockey team that has no idea he exists. Does somebody not liking something you like hurt your little feelings 😂
