They wouldn’t be paying for talent, they’d be paying for cap space

Oh definitely not paying for talent.

But they needed help...had to make a move

Yup, and as I’ve been saying the Leafs now need a partner for Rielly, and I was basing that on Gio being the 7th. I hate to say it but it sounds like Gio needs to be replaced.

I missed the post game presser but my brother texts me that Keefe said Gio has a head injury?

If so that’s not good.

Now

Gudbranson Jenner and Kuraly

The new 7th while others are out

Still hoping they find a true partner for Rielly who is a rightie

Oh I won’t pretend to know what happened but it didn’t look good at all. I’m guessing he’ll be meeting with neurologists one way or another so the leafs have to play it safe

A lot of red for boosh

ya, low expectations ...but I think Schenn probably had similar stats before he was a Leaf. For some reason Rielly + pilon seems to be a formula that works.

he's what we get in the bargain bin.

From CJ on tweeter
"The #leafs are also receiving the rights to Kirill Slepets to complete the double retention deal on Ilya Lyubushkin"

I still find it strange that the Canes would throw away money they should be using to add to their team

670k for a 6th🤷🏿‍♂️

Slepets!

Gio hit his head hard…very hard

His career could be over

Slepets!
- Arctic_AARDVARK

He was a 5th round draft pick

Leafs paid a 6th for retention

STEAL by Tre

Oh thank God. I was doubting this deal before but that pushes this over the edge into major win territory.

Here's what i know about Slepets












.

Well theres an immediate help low cost low risk move. Cant say it changes much or is a major improvement but liked him when he was here before. Wait and wee more or less but Tre cant really be done here.

Hopefully Lyubushkin doesnt support the war in Ukraine, or Wedgie won't be able to cheer for the Leafs anymore.

How sad.


McCabe/Boosh/Benoit is a strong group of dudes. I like this approach.

Cause covid.
Jesus

Hes been a 1.13 - 1.30 ppg every year since signing his 6 year deal.

Him returning would be a shock at his age in my eyes

- The Law

Thats what everyone knows about him.
But after a quick Google, hes a 24 year old LW in the khl. 19pts in the past 50 games or something like that

Hopefully Lyubushkin doesnt support the war in Ukraine, or Wedgie won't be able to cheer for the Leafs anymore.

How sad.

Ultimate team guy ...he knew they'd need a roster spot for Boosh so he took one for the team.

Add Gudbranson too
