GIVE ME JOHN « fuck it i’ll do it myself » TAVARES
Who cares? We know the Kambucha Prince works hard and is “a real good pro”. I’ve never seen anybody question that, we simply need more than that.
We need somebody who leads on the ice and can take control of the room, and can do so with the episome flow of the game/series.
Well his foot speed has been a problem for a while now…so that makes sense lol
Practicing shooting it at Swayman’s chest
This makes me feel better. Leafs in 5.
Did they end the practice by skating a lap?
If Tavares had the footspeed of Stamkos, this guy would be so lethal.
Been a while since I’ve played, but isn’t the captain supposed to be a « first on, last off » type of guy?
If I was a player I’d just hang out on the ice after practice and dick around and then everyone would write articles about me and how I’m a hard worker lol
His contract is too big for him at this stage, but he’s a good captain and a better choice than any of the other viable options on the team
He’s a hard worker but not a leader. He always reminds me of Boxer in Animal Farm. He shows up to work to do his best job and then that’s all.
PR BS. Where was this before game 1?
The last player OFF the ice. The last player on the ice is the last guy to start practice.
If your career is to write things for public consumption, you should make sure you write things properly.
He’s probably only got 16-18 minutes of hockey left to play this season. I don’t blame him for squeezing in a little extra time out there
Last player OFF the ice at practice
So does that mean he’s backing up Samsonov?
Whoop dee doo
Okay and? He’s got nothing left, he has really fallen off.
If you can’t skate in today’s league, you are finished
I still hope he stays in Toronto at a much more accurate cap hit after his contract is up.
This guy is the worst captain. Plays with no passion, no jam, doesn’t hit, doesn’t skate, doesn’t score, doesn’t lead the team, wtf is he even here for?
Oh but he is a quiet captain and leads by example like Sundin… oh give me a break Sundin carried a team on his back multiple times, put up points in the playoffs all while being tied down by wingers like Ponikarovsky and Antropov.
Tavares gets 2nd pair defences and can’t do jack. One of the worst tenures as captain of the Leafs I’ve ever seen.
This won’t help
Hopefully he is practicing shooting under the crossbar!
Who? Lol
Should be first player out of town too
Roy Keane would say, so what, he’s just doing his job.
Does this mean he’s starting between the pipes?
He doesn’t want to get traded to SAN Jose this offseason
The worst shooting percentage in his career hides some crazy good « expected » goals numbers. He could be a great darkhorse pick for fantasy teams next year now that he has an entire summer ahead of him to re-invent his game while also working on his short game.
Needs to try and justify that fat contract somehow.
‘captain’
Because he knows after they lose game 5 to Boston that he only has one more season with them before they offer him a 6mil/3yr contract as a way to tell him to get lost and retire
What a failure his tenure has been.
