Default Re: Leaf predication poll... winless and still counting

i vote they will go 0-11-1 before winning against the Lightning at home (can't say if in OT or Reg time though)..not sure if Kessel will be in the lineup before or after then but i wouldn't bank too much on that, who's gonna replace Savard as his set up man (that he had in Beantown)

rm, that means 0-12 in my books...so i should have clarified that it means 0 for 'how many games played'

char, you meant 0-6-1, i think...the Leafs are losing so many so quickly that they shot one loss right by me so 0-5 is n/a

i didnt mind the old ties but i guess they didnt like teams playing for ties in the last few minutes to they made it an incentive to win in Reg time, especially against a division opponent...meaning you would get your 2 points if winning in Reg time and advance 2 points against a division rival, whereas you would only advance by 1 if you had to use OT or the SO to win....if i rambled on more i could explain the new faults it's also created but ya get the gist, as char said, a loss is a loss but your record doesnt look so bad now

Leafs finished with 81 pts last year in 82 games...sounds almost like .500.....but no, they were actually 6 games under...but the 13 OT losses gave them a point in each to pad the misery

the year before I think we had 90 something points and missed playoffs also of course but some where saying how they had the a good year in getting that many points...bologni, you can't compare that total to years ago (BB=before Betman) when accumulating 90 something points actually meant you were decent

the first few games were exciting losses i'll say....now i hear they may switch to playing the dreadful trap, meaning even watching them lose will be a huge bore....so in short, yeah, put the parade on hold
