i am sorry antroman, you are absolutely 100 percent correct. this is a trash talk forum and trash talk will occur. i do my share too and criticizing you for i was a little hypocritic....we have to have a little fun around here.
the leafs do take incredible criticism, alot of it very founded in my opinion, but thats the way it is. once the oil starts winning again i will probably be the same way.
again, i am sorry. |

Pittsburgh is actually in this for being one of the bst teams in the east this season? And comparing them to San Jose, Anaheim or Dallas?

Ottawa is better than Detroit this year
(I also think that the East with Ottawa, Carolina, NYRangers, Philidelphia, and Pittsburgh is better than the West where the top teams are not performing as well as they should be this year) |

Guest 1422 - I re-read the preceeding posts again this morning just to see exactly if my reply to your post concurred with my sentiments of last evening which I thought might have been influenced by my consuming of brown pops watching football. I have only one thing to add. Being a fan of the Leafs, we have to take extreme pleasure in the small things like beating Ottawa, our dreaded rivals, because these wonderful moments seem to come so far apart these last two years. Yes, after Saturday nights win,the future did seem bright and still will until Tuesday night when we play again. If it continues then the shades stay on. I hope this explaination helps........Antroman. |

Guest 1422 Just goofing around man. Us leafers have been getting blasted by everybody under the sun for the past week and I was just returning the favor. I thought this was what these hockey forums were all about, trash talking? If I was to talk the straight goods, then who the heck would care a damn? For the record here is an example. The Leafs played a strong defensive game tonight against the number one team in the Eastern conference resulting in a hard earned 3-0 win. I am a big Leaf fan but also realize this was only one game and the Leafs have got a long ways to go to prove they belong in the same atmosphere as the high flying Senators. Anybody can write mundane commentary like that. I was just having some fun at the expense of the Sens fans just like the anti Leafers do to us all the time. |

id like to get mad at you again antroman but do not want to waste time and start another debate, as your antics are growing very tired.
just face it, ottawa is the best in the nhl and the leafs have not made the finals in the expansion era.
and you leaf fans are always saying the future is bright. even back in 67. the leafs cup drought will last longer than the rangers. |

Gentlemen,
It sure is a fine Leaf day isn't it? The sun is shinning, the birds are chirping and the stupid Senators got their ugly red butts pasted to the floor. Everthing is right in our world again until Tuesday night. I just can't say enough good things about our resounding thrashing other than the fact the Senators really don't want to meet the Maples in the playoffs because when we absolutely have to beat them, we usually do. Ok, I am sorry and I will attempt to be humble once again. "The futures so bright the Leafers need shades." Whoops, lost it again, I apologize Sens people!!!!!! Life is absolutely so good again.

hkalirah - Good post and you are certainly correct. Lets not forget that every team in the draft order passed on all these players including the fore mentioned players in your post several times. I'll bet that if anybody had known how good they were going to become they would have all gone in the first round. Even if Detroit had a inkling as to what kind of players these guys were to become then they would most surely have picked them much earlier than they did. I truely think you are blowing Detroit's horn a little too loud here although you can't deny them their good luck. I am sure there were a number of players taken in earlier rounds of those respective drafts that are nowhere near the caliber of those later picks otherwise Detroit's picks would have been reversed. Please do not get me wrong as their is no denying the Wings good fortune and I am of course jealous as hell. I think the draft after the first few picks is a crap shoot. Another late pick we haven't mentioned is Daniel Alfredsson. How could have every team in the league missed the boat on this guy? I think in the later rounds that scouts should be looking for skinny little intelligent guys that can skate because Zetteberg, Kaberle, Alfredsson, Stralman and Datsuk certainly share that same profile and fit the bill. |

Detroit lost again last night... and as for depth look at last seasons points for the two teams:
Ottawa Detroit (points last season in brackets)
Heatley (105) Datsyuk (87)
Spezza (87) Zetterberg (68)
Alfredsson (87) Lidstrom (62)
Fisher (48) Rafalski (55)
Vermette (39) Holmstrom (52)
Kelly (38) Cleary (40)
Corvo (37) Samuelsson (34)
Redden (36) Franzen (30)
Meszaros (35) Draper (29)
Eaves (32) Hudler (25)
McAmmond (29) Kronvall (22)
Neil (28) Lebda (18)
Phillips (26) Filppula (17)
Schubert (25) Drake (12)
Robitaille (23) Maltby (11)
Volchenkov (19) Bertuzzi (11)
Donovan (17) Chelios (11)
Ottawa has been praised for being the deepest team in the league with their balanced scoring. Dont forget that they also have a good idea of how Hasek plays where as Detroit plays Gerber once every couple years...if he plays that game...and it is early to put them into the finals right now |

It's really a tough call to make them assumptions now...
be nice to see Ottawa finally win a cup, and rub it in TO's face, just like the Mayor of Ottawa said... if/when they win the cup before the Leafs, the parade will be downtown Toronto.
The way both teams are playing will be tough, but I can see Detroit taking it, they should have made the finals last year, but lost because Anaheim got lucky, on a few goals (ie. Neidemayer pushing in Hasek)
Ottawa is, and always will be a one line wonder, till the Coaching staff decided to step up, and mold there players.
Detroit has a deep core thats taken them far.
In the end it will come down to the goalies, who will be better Hasek/Osgood, or Emery/Gerber, and injuries come that time.

Agreed it was the previous regime, however what has the new regime done? Missed the playoffs since they’ve taken over, that’s what they’ve done.
The Wings have proven time and time again that they have a superior scouting system. I hardly think drafting Lidstrom, Zetteberg, Datsyuk is luck. Looking back even further, the wings drafted Fedorov & Holmstrom. Are they flukes as well?
Kaberle has been a good pick, no doubt about that. I don’t think Wellwood is Zetteberg/Datsyuk, caliber, but he’s young and his progress is decent so far.
Where Detroit has developed players like Lidstrom, and used them to win 3 cups in recent history, Toronto has ALWAYS shunned their young talent and preferred for veterans who are on their last legs.
On the current team, Brad Boyes would probably be the 2nd line forward they’ve been lacking. Sullivan (although injury prone) would have been an excellent left winger to play alongside Sundin.
Besides Kaberle, who was the last Leafs draft pick that made waves in the NHL? I’d think it would have to go back to 1985, when they took Wendel Clark 1st overall
Its always been the same argument. You’ve made the case for Strallman and Kulemin. I was hearing the same talk when Coliacovo was coming into the league, he was going to be the next big thing. I have no faith in the Toronto system, because they haven’t shown me anything.
Besides Kaberle, who was the last Leafs draft pick that made waves in the NHL? I’d think it would have to go back to 1985, when they took Wendel Clark 1st overall.
Anyone can talk the talk, but I’ll wait until they walk the walk before giving any credit.

To answer the question I think whether it is ottawa or one of the other 7 teams that come out of the west they will win. I simply believe the east is the superior conference and the stanley cup winner will be from there.
and btw dont confuse the fact that toronto has young players with that meaning they have good young players...i think that is more attributed to the lack of depth of the team --those guys have no bright future in the nhl and wouldnt be given a chance with almost any other team |
| Antroman |
Posted - 11/12/2007 : 07:35:54
hkalirah: The players you talked about Boyes and Sullivan were traded away by the previous regime when the Leafs were being run by Pat Quinn. Up until his last year the team was winning and advancing to the playoffs on a regular basis. Those two players were sacrificed in hopes of winning the Cup in those respective years. Neither of those guys I would call dependable type real blue chippers although they have turned themselves into good NHL'ers. Sometimes you get lucky in the draft and land a late bloomer such as a Lidstrom or Zetteberg. The Leafs managed the feat themselves getting T. Kaberle and Stralman (if he works out) and Wellwood. The Toronto Marlies are the elite team in the AHL at the moment with many solid young prospects. I think your arguement is an old one and not really valid under the current management team. Ferguson did make one bone headed move though when he gave up Tukka Rask for Raycroft. I still can't get my head wrapped around that one? |
| hkalirah |
Posted - 11/12/2007 : 06:28:14
The problem isn't their future, the problem is managment. Where Detroit drafts and develops players like Lidstrom, Datsyuk and Zetteberg, Toronto trades them away for the "geriatrics". It's been proven time and time again. Steve Sullivan was a leaf, Brad Boyes was a leaf, they don't have the patience to develop their young players. Even right now we're hearing rumors of Steen/Stajan being traded.

Hey Greg, Pohl is not a young up and comer and as for Tlusty he may never be a star as only time will tell. He will be a good NHL'er though at the very least. I really believe Kronwall should be in the league now but the Leafs have quite a log jam on defense right now. I think he is every bit as good as his brother in Detroit. Pogge is going to be a very good NHL goalie as we witnessed in the pre season this year. The Leafs are giving him time to grow while being tutored by Clemmonson. Stralman was sent down to work on the parts of his game which will make him a better NHL player but his skating, puck handling and passing skills are very good and that is an understatement to say the least. Like I mentioned the Leafs have quite a bit of depth on defense and it was a good time to get Stralman some valuble North American ice time. For once I think the Leafs are on the right track when it comes to grooming their youngsters for the new NHL. This team is getting better and better as witnessed by their play of late but it is still relatively early in the season and I can only hope they continue with this new found team defense concept? Afterall they are 4-2-1 in their last seven.

Posted - 11/11/2007 : 08:21:49
Antroman, Pogge is doing terribly in the AHL, the leafs are too stupid to keep Stralman up and send Wozniewski down. He's terrible as well. Kronwal? I like Steen Stajan Wellwood and white. Tlusty is too early to tell with. Pohl, not good. colaiacovo, no matter how good he is will never be able to play a full season in the NHL. And Gill.... the list just keeps going
After playing in the NHL, it's hard to watch hockey games. |
| Antroman |
Posted - 11/11/2007 : 08:09:05
I think our development is coming along quite well at the moment with Steen, Stajan, Wellwood, Wozniewski, Tlusty, White, Stralman, Pogge, Kronwall, Etc Etc. We have a blue chip sniper in Russia by the name of Kulemin who is already signed for next year and to top it all off the Toronto Marlies are leading the AHL and I think are undefeated so far this season. I will have to check on that one to be sure but we are already headed in the right direction in regard to young talent. Do we have a franchise player to replace Matts? The answer is no which is concerning for sure. These days you have to finish at the bottom of the standings to get a blue chipper and the Leafs have never quite been able to accomplish that feat. Sometimes you can get lucky with late picks with the likes of Lidstrom, Kaberle and Zetterburg but as a rule this does not happen that often. I think we might have one of those diamonds in the rough in the name of Stralman but only time will tell.

However, I think Detroit will have more points at years end, mainly because they'll be playing 32 games against teams in their own division, probably the weakest in the league. I expect them to get atleast 40 points out of those games alone.
We may find out who the better team is in June, when they both play in the Finals.

Wings are used to fly, Leaves only fall.
I've been saying it for a while now, I'd like to see for fact which team is better. I'm a hardcore Ottawa fan, but Detroit has an excellent, disiplined team. I hope for a Detroit/Ottawa matchup in the finals.
And Leaf fans, you guys are so cute! In the face of constant disappointment you guys keep believing in the same old tired bunch of faces. You need a new general manager who realizes the name of the game is player development, not one who raids the geriatric wards of the NHL get a good recruiting section and start developing prospects, it's much cheaper and you get players who get better and better. |

hey antroman, lifelong rural albertan dwelling oilers fan here.
you need to have a sip of some of the morning coffee and check the calendar because this is not 1967 ( the last year those blue and white pieces of s*** sniffed anything close to the Stanely cup). exactly what great leafs team and what playoffs are you talking about? 1942? bill berliko? teeder kennedy?
HELLOOOOOO!!!! this maple leafs team hasnt been able ot hold anybodys jock in the playoffs the last few years!!!
have they made the finals in the last forty years? oh right, NOOOOOOO!!!
in the meantime, edmonton has five cups right here in the real city of champions, detroit has 3, the f***ing rangers even have one, the flames have one, montreal has a crapload, the islanders have had a dynasty, a few wars and presidents and prime minsiters have come and gone, and yes, the leafs are meddling in mediocrity powered only by blind morons like yourself (what kind of a name is antroman anyway) who still fail to see the facts and reality and a s***tyass stinky bllue and white embarassment to canada in front of you. as a former soviet gulag guard you should be ashamed of yourself for so openly supporting one of our biggest embarasments and sports failures--the toronto make-beliefs!! give your head a shake. |

The Question: Detroit or Ottawa? The Leafs will win the Stanley Cup.

Well how about this as a stat. When was the last time the Leafs actually made the playoffs. I think you as a leaf fan are setting your goals too high. Make the finals and then talk smack.
Here's another stat for you. How many times have the leafs made the finals since 67? How about none.
How many times has Ottawa made the finals? One more than the leafs!
Detroit? 4 times. Carolina? Twice. Tampa? Once. Calgary, Twice. Shall I go on.
Toronto has gone 39 complete seasons without making the finals. That's the longest current drought. What a great winning team to cheer for.
There's still room on the Detroit band wagon if you want to jump on. But promise me you'll wear that Antropov jersey of yours!

Good evening gentlemen and all you darksiders as well. Sorry for my lapse in posting since this morning but I have been busy. First off there was the Howard Berger report on the Leafs this morning on the Fan 590 and The Leaf's Lunch from 12 to 1 on AM640 and and from 4 to 7 the Bill Waters Show on the same station. In between those shows I busied myself checking out the local newspaper sports sections regarding the Maples and there was allot to read as per usual. After the Water's Show it was on to Leafs TV for the pre-game and after that the slaying of the Buffalo's. Being a fan of your own team certainly has it's benefits doesn't it. Oh yea, I almost forgot, as a Soviet Gulag Guard I had to take part in the execution of few more incorrigable and troublesome foreign hockey team lovers arrested here in Southern Ontario. All in all a great day. Hey Leaf fans, 4 out of the last 5 road games were all victories!!!! How about that? |

The Leafers are by far the most popular team in Southern Ontario and judging by the Leaf Jersys and cheers in other rinks across this country their popularity is pretty healthy their too. By the way, the brave captain and crew always go down with the ship much unlike the rats who abandon it and drown anyway.

first of all -most people in canada living in a city with an nhl hockey team will cheer for that team (bold statement i know) for instance i am from ottawa and cheering for ottawa
however if you have no team in your city does that mean you are unpatriotic etc? no. -even cheering for an american team that is geographically the closest to you makes perfect sense to me -and no matter what in that situation there is no 'hometown team' to be cheering for.
finally i kindof feel sorry for antroman now cause he has to be all patriotic for his team -the struggling leafs. have u ever thought of moving to ...say ottawa?
on second thought we don't want someone who is paranoid of american teams stealing our fans...no matter what is true that really isnt that serious a problem -if u still really feel that way after everyone else tries to convince you otherwise it is time to move on because theres on point in us wasting our time here |
