Is that why marner and matthews aren't oin the same line? To make up for depth issues without nylander?

Oof. I am always thankful that I'm a casual Leafs fan now.

Looks like the Leafs are in fine post-season form. I'm glad i chose to watch NBA games today.

Why do they keep returning the same core team and hope that the results will be different?

It's like if the Raptors doubled down on the Demar/Lowry duo for the next 5 years in hopes that the results would change.

The issue imo has always been goaltending and a tough defensive pairing.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

Admittedly, I haven't watched enough to really comment, so the offense has been good enough? I thought that was part of the problem as well.

When was the last time a Toronto team beat a Boston team in the playoffs? Or has it been never?

Hard cap. I feel the Leafs made a mistake signing Tavares. He's a good player but wasn't needed at the price tag his pay comes with you. Freddy Anderson was a decent goalie and didn't cost that much. I liked Kadri too. He was a good value contract and helped the Avs hoist the cup.

New GM though. He needs to time to manoeuvre the cap situation. Losing Hyman hurt too. He's a gamer. Sad reality of the hard cap.
