Pretty accurate but only going back like 30 years. 

Ya, the cowboys have won a Super Bowl much more recently than the Leafs have won the cup. 
 

But being the NFL’s & broadcasters darling team while choking every time you make it to the first round of the playoffs is on point with the leafs.

It wasn't an accident that I compared us to that 1999-2017 Browns era. Tons of similarities.

TBH, I forsee about the same thing happening. Around 20ish years of being the butt of a lot of league jokes.

Oh yeah, it’s going to get a lot worse. 

 

If I were making a prediction, I'd probably say the same thing.

Since I'm a fan of course, I'm hoping for a different outcome.

Are you on heavy medication?

Do you do drugs?

 

I need answers!

Yes. Perhaps. Nope.

Your offered opinion earlier shows you really do need some answers.

So here they are, pertaining to this.

One guy made it to the playoffs, where the Dolphins died in the cold.

The other guy got to watch the game from home and has been left wondering if his team will draft his replacement this coming season.

How do they not have like heating band or something around the back of the seats so they can melt it off instead of asking a bunch of fans to shovel it. Like not even that major or expensive just something that puts off enough heat over the course of time that the snow can’t accumulate like that.

I'd imagine a lot of the concrete flatwork there has snowmelt but install on vertical surfaces and plastic seats is not something worth having with how shoddy that would be and no real proven products for that application, at that scale.

I wondered why they didn't have it running through the concrete around the place but I guess they can just give a couple of tickets to guys willing to do it as a fan is my guess.

Ya I meant on the concrete behind the seat not on the back of the seats themselves. But then I guess you gotta worry about it icing if the radiant heat isn’t hot enough. Which would also be a big lawsuit issue.

    • Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down. 
    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
