Game in 8.1%: Game 82, Leafs 1 vs. Habs 4
Share

Boxscore | Ice Time | Recap

You’ve just watched your final 60 minutes of Leaf hockey until next September, and spent it half-hoping the Habs would win (which they did). What a fun end to the season, amirite?

The Leafs did land the fifth overall pick by losing and will have an 8.1% chance at winning Tuesday’s NHL draft lottery. They finish the season 35-37-10, for 80 points – a five point step back from last season.

No use writing up 10 points tonight, I’ll just extend my appreciation. This was a fun and active season on Maple Leafs Hot Stove, our most active in our four seasons of existence, and we thank all that participated. Onto discussing how to fix this mess.

    This is a strong draft? Yakupov smoked Stamkos’ numbers with the sting last year?

    The game is still changing. My bet is some of these guys are falling behind. You have seen some of these guys best years.

    The only forward that seems to have gone without injury (to my knowledge) is Forsberg. He’s also pretty consistently ranked in the top 5. I could easily see Burke wanting him.

    Points as a 16 year old.

    Stamkos had 92 in 63 games

    Yakupov had 101 in 62.

    Not to mention Yakupov sent a couple guys through the glass.

    He was caught flat footed? Literally standing still when Plekanec attacked the puck, nobody in the league catches shim there.

    Personally I don’t want him, but there is no denying he has superstar potential.

    Concussions are a funny injury. But there are alot more players who have had long careers after sustaining multiple concussions than players who have ended their careers.
