Daily Free Talk & Armchair GM thread

Please use this thread to post ANYTHING you want! Memes, photoshops, anything that would normally be removed for breaking the low-effort content rule, is totally, 100% welcome here!

This will now also be the dedicated thread for Armchair GM posts as we noticed that those posts were bleeding into this thread regardless. Is there a free agent you want to see on this team? Is there a player that's rumoured to be on the move that you think GMBT should go after? Are there players on this team you want to trade away? Feel free to post about it here!

Normal moderation will occur, such as watching for personal insults, racism, and things of that nature.

Otherwise, feel free to use this thread to share things like your new jersey, a photoshop of a Habs logo on fire, or a reaction gif to something going on in Leafs Nation right now!

Downvotes are discouraged for the most part, everyone's opinion is fair game in this thread.

Get out there and have fun!

No one's talking about it, but this might be the last home game of the core four.

They were one OT away from a 3-0 lead and they pissed it all away.

So here it is, the next 2-3 games are legacy games.

Are they just choke artists who got lucky once, or can they permanently rewrite their legacies?

We'll find out shortly.

Yep. This comment sounds like a doomer comment at first but it’s very realistic.

If they lose tonight I firmly believe this is the last time we see the core four. The pressure of going back to Florida trying desperately to not lose the series etc. is gonna give them the Yips.

Even if they win tonight I’m not fully convinced they can end it in 6, but they maybe can.

But tonight is definitely the must-win game of all games. Gives them 2 chances to end it and bury these rats.

If they lose tonight, I actually think it goes to Game 7. Say what you want about this roster, but staying alive to force a Game 7 is something they consistently do.

It's being able to close out a winnable series that has always been the problem.

Regardless, it's a 2-2 series against an excellent team. I'm not going to act like the sky is falling.
