For the most part their goal is to win, but for a time the goal was to tank, and you know that worked out. 

 

Not during Jack's time here.  Context...

Wow.  And he kept going for the Cup.

Ironically he's the best playoff player of the core 4, at least in the games I've watched over the years 

Production wise, he has been decent in the playoffs. I just can’t stand his game, holding the puck and circling around the perimeter while the Leafblowers fawn over his amazing skill. He treats the corners like the puck was a cobra.

I saw Nylander go into a corner once. He is the reincarnation of Inge Hammarstrom.

I would guess a lot of people have never heard of Hammarstrom.

He’s one of two Swedish pioneers the Leafs brought into the NHL in the early 70’s. The other was HOFer Borje Salming.

Leafs owner Harold Ballard said that Hammarstrom was the only NHLer that could go into the corner with a dozen eggs and come out with them all intact. He didn’t last.

Nylander has more skill but that same lack of toughness.

LAS VEGAS -- Less than four hours before Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final was set to begin Tuesday on the Las Vegas Strip, authorities in Nevada arrested a man they say threatened to carry out a mass shooting at T-Mobile Arena, the venue where the Golden Knights would capture their first championship that night.

An arrest report released Thursday by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department identifies the suspect as Matthew DeSavio, who is described by detectives in the document as a 33-year-old man with a history of mental illness and arrests "that would cause a reasonable person to feel terrorized, frightened, intimidated, harassed or fearful for their immediate safety." The report doesn't say whether detectives have found any weapons in DeSavio's possession.

A lawyer who could comment on DeSavio's behalf wasn't listed in jail or court records Thursday evening.

In a series of rambling text messages, phone calls and social media posts Tuesday, according to the report, the suspect threatened to "shoot up" the hockey game against the Florida Panthers in a massacre that would rival the October 2017 mass shooting on the Strip. That mass shooting -- the deadliest in modern American history -- left 60 dead and hundreds more injured.
