He was a speedier, chippier version of Kampf for sure. Kind of inexcusable really that Tre lost Steeves, Holmberg, and Minten all in division.

Well, the system / coach has literally moved his shot from the slot to the point on the powerplay, so ya, the coaching and system does have a lot to do with it.

I think the story hinged a lot on the monster's healing factor which was never really explained. The point was overcoming death, not outright defying it.

My only guess is that there is an equal level of, if their gonna win something big like the Olympics, they want to do it with their bros/gals. Curling feels like a "vibes" sport and a best-of-the-best draft might make it too clinical.

It's not like it's the two-man luge. Familiarity in curling can't really be that much more important than it would be for putting together a national hockey program. A couple exhibition/practices should be enough, shouldn't it?

Oh, absolutely. Shortly after they show the zoom in of the Leafs pingpong ball getting knocked out of the 1OA pick.

Ok, you do know that much of his downturn is related to usage, correct? Berube is playing him far more defensively that ever before in his career.
It's like when everyone said Ovechkin was cooked and all of a sudden after a coaching change he bounced back.

I hate that I had to walk the right rope of being a supportive dad while also letting my teen know that his AI songs weren't "his". I think I've been able to redirect a bit to real artists but I hate that his school was encouraging creating AI music.

Then you're talking to the wrong Leaf fans. Most of us just know the team is bad regardless of who they are losing to. They weren't even good when they were healthy.

That is why I have three "free" sports streaming apps and two backup websites to watch my sports. Based on the amount of people complaining about issues watching the World Series via legit means, I can get the same product or better via other means.
The two streaming apps I do pay for is my limit.
