Well he did promise that there would be pain. 

 

This is a problem that seems to plague Canadian teams, impatient in the team building process.  For TO its, Nylander and Tavares.  Had they been more patient and built their back end they probably dont need Tavares, but with Taveres on the team they basically had no choice but to go all in and try to win a cup with him on the team.  Also naming him captain when he signed as a FA seemed odd to me.  An extra year or two of losing would have done them good.  By the time they can overcome Boston, Andersen will be a shell of himself.  Maybe there is an EA cover curse.

 

For us, its the boat anchor that is Loui Eriksson's contract and the bottom end of our forward group making so much money.

He just didn't know the pain was coming to him...

This slump that the Leafs are in just shows who truly is the most valuable player on the team is and it’s not Tavares or Matthews.

 

With Marner in the lineup: 9-5-4

Without Marner: 0-5

Yep, been saying that since last year.
