F*CK I AM SICK OF THIS.

What is frustrating you guys? Im from New England so I don't get a chance at viewing any of your games. Is it that the Leafs are playing up to potential? Almost half way through the season and you guys have the last playoff spot. Swanogt19

Yeah, but we don't want to see the inevitable slip that's happened for the past 7 goddam years. A lot of us have high expectations (not President's Trophy calibre obviously) of this team this season, we're sick of not seeing playoffs here. Wilson doesn't seem to give a damn of instilling a winning culture in the team and is probably the most passive coach I've seen in game outside of tonight.

Burke was pissed as hell after that fifth goal, but there is nothing anyone can do about tonight. The PK actually held off Vancouver both times tonight and Monster was hands down the best player. If it wasn't for him that game wouldn't have been as close as it was. But yeah, wosrt PK in the league, a defense that's terrible at knowing when to pinch and the rest is history.

Also seems like this thread is posted in by me, you, johnbean, sherman and los, may as well rename it the Northeast Division Discussion Thread.

Random thought: I wonder how Raycroft, a 37-win goalie for us, would perform with a better D than he had then. He hasn't played bad for Dallas or Vancouver last year. Still a terrible trade.

I suppose I should be more excited for this Yu Darvish fellow and the Jays apparently being linked to him than the Leafs currently, but I still do not know too much about baseball. Obviously this is a hockey city, but they won the WS the year I was born and then the year after, but I haven't consciously seen a championship from the big 4 leagues. :c

Too much of a hockey fan I guess.

Regardless it is pretty cool to see #teamunit together (For those that don't know, it is a group of Leafs and Jays players that seem to get together with each other from my understanding of it)

I just read some of the comments by users in an article about Lucic getting a hearing. I think it is safe to say I want to punch a wall right now.

Lučić suspended for one game. But as long as they clobber the Habs I am content.

Also, Reimer has been fantastic. Saved a goal before Frattin scored there, 28 saves after two, and one goal was BS.

F*ck the refs, that shouldn't have even gone into a shootout, let alone OT with their bullsh*t apparent blindness.

F***, Colby Armstrong has a concussion. Dude can't catch a break.

Yup, no epidemic here. Keep doing what you're doing NHL.

I did some rationalizing last night, and it agrees with swag's comment about Toronto performing to their potential. As I did respond by saying we do have much higher expectations, not clinching top of the conference-type, they're still doing much better than last year at this time. And hell, November this year wasn't even bad at all. It's just frustrating to see them lose like they did last night.

But it also leads me to a blog post dealing with many fans calling to fire Ron Wilson. I'm not a huge fan of him either, but he does raise the point that when he first came here he still had to deal with John Ferguson Jr. runoff.

It's merely impatience mounting right now.

What happened to Optimus JB? :PX360PS3AMD05

Article from today's Gazette regarding Cunneyworth's appointment of interim coach of Montréal:

"Dumbest: Geoff Molson is making it easier - first with his organization's meagre number of franco players and now with its choice of coach - for any reborn NHL team in Quebec City to reclaim the hearts of Quebecers outside of the Montreal region. Not a great way to sell beer."

Henry Aubin

Apparently one person thinks they need to go back to the 70s.

They're going way too far with this, he's only coached what, two games?
