It was more the concept than that specific player I was going for.

I hearya but RHD are a tough get in any year without paying big. You don’t want a rental & the cap space is tight.

Talking heads saying it was a fire alarm.

Speaking of talking heads - Kyperos 🤮

Woll put up the wall late in the 3rd. Rebound control slightly off but to be expected. He’s looks so calm and plays big, especially down low.

He has a bit of good Vasi like look down low.

#goodVasilight ?

(As opposed to bad Vasi that Florida stoner man says he is seeing too much of).

Currently top 5 in the league in scoring. Out with the defensive shutdown line at the end of the game. I think he is a keeper.

You really want that contract?
- Nighthawk


In short - yes.

In long, he offers what we don't have on D - size, muscle, a booming shot and a bit of meanness. You have to love that because on the Leafs that would stand out like the voice of God. It goes until he's 36. You can't love that.

With the cap raising year over year, the impact of the contract will lessen - but not that drastically. For instance the $6.5m in year 1 will feel like about $5m comparatively by current standards (assuming the cap increases by $4m annually) in its final year. It might still be high for a 36 year old D-man, but not ostentatiously high and our window will very likely be beginning to close by then, so capitalizing on the next 4-5 years is really what the focus should be anyway.

Yep. And Willy is 9 points ahead of Marner now, even though Marner gets to play with one of the greatest scorers of all time in Matthews. All for 6.9 cap hit.

It's crazy that even though Marner has played amazing lately and piled up points and named a star of the week, he's still 9 points back of Styles after all that. It's just how much better Willy is right now.

Willie only the 3rd Leaf to have 3 consecutive 80 pt seasons (Sittler and McDonald). Matthews and Mitch will be 4 and 5.

Willy Haters Heads Exploding

This sounds like the title of a sci-if porn movie about lesbians who have exploding heads.

Really anything about exploding willlys could probably be a UK porn title.
