A D core should be a lot better offensively to be this mediocre (or worse) defensively

A lot of JT's money went to Knies. Not ideal, but cursed timing seems to be our thing. Fine. Turning almost all of Marner's cap hit into Macelli, Roy & Joshua and spending assets to do it is looking like a real problem.

You want that type of player, fine. But you gave up assets for this player on that contract. Paying assets to use pretty much all Marners $ on Joshua, Maccelli and Roy seems like a recipe for disaster. No matter what you think about any of the 3 individually

I probably only get to keep 5 of:
Wheeler
Webb
Strider
Misiorowski
Glasnow
Sale
DeGrom
McLean
Yesavage
Horton
Clase

I currently have both, and don't think I'm going to be able to find a way to keep either...

And I still don't get Straw for Barger.
Sure, if we had the lead and you were going to be bringing him in for defence anyway, but it was tied.
If you don't do that, not only do you have Barger's bat for another 9 innings, but it's Straw instead of Davis running for France in the 10th.

High schoolers would fail their english assignments for being too blatent with their symbolism.

You need to engage someone with better knowledge of the ticket landscape to craft this policy. While I understand the urge to strike while the story is hot in order to exert max pressure, this version is so unworkable that it will not achieve that goal

The test part isn't surprising. They're joining up specifically because they're being told that they'll be able to do whatever they want to non-white people, but then have to write a test where the answers are that they can't. It must be very confusing. Especially if you happen to be a racist moron.

It shouldn't feel 'off'... the Leafs really have broken my brain

Only thing that I can think of is that his perseption was coloured by how easily and often they were able to 'work' their way into his crease

Minten and a first...
He's fine.
He's big, he's right handed, he's actually an NHL defenseman. But, as is a trend with a lot of our recent deals, giving up too many assets for guys with contracts that aren't great for what they are.

Also - walking in with teens is... challenging. Hard enough to get them to go once, don't want to waste any good vibes by going twice :)

It's only two more weeks now. Really more annoying - like someone just read a policy rather than making a realistic decision (I'd booked the night before, and they were cancelling me the day of) than actually problematic

I made appointments for us, they called me back and bumped me to November because we don't have any special issues. Weird. But I hope that means that we will get the flu shot as well
October 18, 2025 at 11:16 PM
Oh yeah. Was so remarkably weird that I momentarily missed the first out coming at home. Horrible luck, but still game changing
October 18, 2025 at 1:20 AM
Bases loaded, nobody out and we came up empty. Could have made a big difference
October 18, 2025 at 1:17 AM
? Tanev, Carlo, Meyers, Benning - Benning's older has a higher cap hit & cleared last year
Dunno why I thought Thrun was a righty
From an asset management perspective (which we've been really bad at lately) it makes sense. But, I think that OEL is better on the left & would like to see a RD over SB

And if Waze tells you that there is a speed camera, you slow down. Mission accomplished. Do I grumble a little, yes. And then say to myself "well, that worked, good on them"

And he got nothing for that

Same words but entirely different tone than we were saying it early in the year
