From what I’ve seen reading around, sure looks like the Leaf faithful would happily drive Marner to the airport, never to return. 10 goals in 57 playoff games would do that I suppose.

2024 New York Mets Season Thread
Colorado Rockies 1976 replied to NJDevs4978's topic in The Locker Room
Can’t build the offense around the Loser Twins. Hopefully Stearns is seeing that. -
No one said that the players are blameless. And it’s not like coaches don’t get canned in the NHL…there’s a reason why so many are looking for a new job. I’d be very surprised if Montgomery was let go, even though if his team were to lose, that would be two straight first-round exits after having been up in each series. I wouldn’t fire him myself. Re: the Leafs, Keefe is in his fourth season and Treliving inherited him; if it’s yet another first-round exit, I can see Treliving wanting to bring in his own guy. Gotta think Keefe would get another gig if he was let go.

2024 New York Mets Season Thread
Colorado Rockies 1976 replied to NJDevs4978's topic in The Locker Room
Crazy game tonight. Mets take a 3-0 lead, fall behind 9-3, now trailing 9-7. At least Pete drove in a damned run for a change. -
FWIW I read somewhere that Brind'Amour and the Canes want to work out an extension...but guess that could change if the Rangers somehow make short work of them.

2024 Offseason Thread - It’s FINALLY here

I’m rather surprised that Berube has yet to be hired by ANYONE TBH. How did LINDY get hired before him?! -

Exactly this. Not to mention that every candidate interviewed represents the Devils not bringing Green back next year. Like you, McClellan isn’t my first choice, but unlike Green, he’s definitely not my LAST choice. -

He played for them in 1987-88...total of five games (his NHL career). He can say that he not only played in the NHL, but scored a goal and notched an assist. That's pretty cool...lots of NHL hopefuls who can't say the same. -

My biggest beef is that it’s one thing to give a developing Holtz some tough love here and there…it’s quite another to basically hold NO ONE ELSE to any kind of similar standard. Smith was given free reign to suck and do Smith things as much as he wanted, and not like others didn’t receive similar treatment. It was mind-boggingly fvcking INFURIATING.

2024 New York Mets Season Thread
Colorado Rockies 1976 replied to NJDevs4978's topic in The Locker Room
Take ‘em however you can get ‘em. Big day for Lindor, which means he’ll do little the next 4-5 games. -
There’s a part of me that wanted to see them get on SOME kind of run to truly challenge for a playoff berth, but I’m glad I didn’t have to see them get curbstomped by either Carolina or the Rangers. Because I hate both of those teams and sadly that’s EXACTLY what would have happened. At absolute best, maybe Allen stands on his head yet again and the Devils would’ve stolen a game that they would’ve had no real business winning. But it would’ve been ugly as fvck.

2024 New York Yankees Season Thread
Colorado Rockies 1976 replied to ButlerBulldog's topic in The Locker Room
According to Piazza’s book, that whole disguise bit was Bobby being more silly than anything else, to get a bit of a laugh out of his team. But Piazza made it clear that Bobby is the kind of guy that you’re pretty much going to have a love-hate relationship with, at best…and I think that was true of most of the Mets at the time. -
Given the hope and expectation, yeah, I'd say Dawson is a fair choice, but I'd say VV would also be a fair nominee. We knew a guy like Smith sucked...unfortunately Lindy and Travis, not so much.

2024 New York Yankees Season Thread

The reason those bad Yankee teams have some mystique is because they were SO unlike the franchise's norm. It's the same reason that the 1986 Mets have a similar level of mystique...because the ultimate success is SO unlike the franchise's norm, heh heh. The Mets' tumble had already started in 1991...they were actually having a pretty good season and then they collapsed big-time that year, tried to buy their way back into contention prior to 1992 and saw that fail spectacularly. Once Bobby V became the manager things started to head in the right direction, but that guy was so deeply insecure and had a major inferiority complex, he really did. It's sad because he's no dummy when it comes to baseball, but in a lot of ways I think he was absolutely his own worst enemy as a manager. He was one of those types who get on people's nerves without even really trying.
