Lots of cap space if needed whippsie ...
- The Law

Yeah, but we are screwed if the Leafs training staff declares Murray healthy.

Just kidding.

Maybe the flames are hot for russians...hence Tre picking up that russian no one heard of.
Dun dun dunnnn.
Its all coming together
- Fakepartofme

Are you suggesting southern alberta may become a hotBED of russian influence and activity?

With term, yes for sure.
If they can get Andersson, move out the first but not Cowen
- Fakepartofme

Topi/Minten before Cowan, IMO but I don’t think just a late first is going to cut it

Is that what people are seriously saying?

Isn't that the whole point of a rental?

1st plus, just not cowen.

The entire franchise
- BINGO!

Pass on Hayton. Knew he was a bust from the start

With the lack of scoring depth, I think trading Cowan would be a big mistake with the ridiculous strides he has taken.

Gudbranson 50% retained
Kuraly 50% retained

for

Kampf
Robertson
Tverberg
Voit
- mr.sir

Yes, please!
We'd miss Kampf, and Robertson would 100% go on to have a Martin St Louis type career, but who cares, I'm all in this year

No trading Topi!

There is a massive shortage of RHD

Hey Scabby:

Where's a good place to take my daughter before next Saturday's Leafs @ Habs game?
- Atomic Wedgie

Well I'm completely out of the game as I almost never go out but here's a few suggestions:

Mckibbin's Irish pub (about 10-15 min walk from the Bell centre.) If you like Irish beers, it's great. Just stay away from the Rim Reapers wings, it's not worth it even if you get your name on the wall, trust me.


La belle et le boeuf burger bar on Ste-Catherine is pretty cool. It's fused into a library which gives it a very nice ambiance and the food is great. If your daughter is more into drinks than pints of beers, they have some pretty good ones there.

Finally, if you're a fan of eating chicken wings, the Brass Door pub & Grill is small but very good and it's not only "pub" foods.

Hope this helps.

That deal would still leave money in the bank for another move 😌

Boosh is what he is ...but this sounds ALOT like what we all said when Dubas added Schenn last year.

On the drive this morning some stats guy was talking about Boosh. He's pretty meh at everything but his one statistical plus is on the PK. He's excellent apparently. And god knows the Leafs PK has been pretty poop all year.

But the fact he's costing nothing in AAV means Tree is still shopping.
- The Law

Yep - add to that he allows more talented players to do their thing without worrying if he is out of position ... which he usually isn't -

Also he was playing with a rookie here... A Very Very talented rookie... but still a rookie... On a bad team..

He'll be better simply because of being on a much much better team and playing with a really good vet...

There was a bar I went to in old Montreal in like 2018 that I'm still kicking myself for not writing down the name because it had the most intensely amazing Passionfruit Triple Belgian Style Ale I've ever had.

- AdamFrench

That 2018 draft is bizarre.

Top 10 In order of points and where they were drafted

Brady Tkachuk - 4th Overall
Quinn Hughes - 7th
Andrei Svechnikov - 2nd
Rasmus Dahlin - 1st
Noah Dobson - 12th
Joel Farabee - 14th
Jesperi Kotkaniemi - 3rd
Evan Bouchard - 10th
Yegor Sharangovich - 141st
k'Andre Miller - 22nd

The fact we didn’t grab Lundestrom as part of the deal tells me Tree is going after either Jenner or Kuraly

1st to Zona for Durzi. Really empty that cupboard.
- The Law

I'd rather get Crouse from Zona with that 1st. add in a 5th for retention

Yeah, but we are screwed if the Leafs training staff declares Murray healthy.

Just kidding.
- Atomic Wedgie

Canuck fans are going to lose their minds when Muzzin, Klingberg and Murray all reach full health on April 18th.

Just kidding.

Seriously though ...Leafs will have some roster juggling to do if they plan to add. They may need to create the cap space but they will definitely need to create roster space b/c once Krok is back they'll have about 25 guys.

I'd assume by the deadline we're looking at:
1. Gio and Timmy to LTIR.
2. Jarnkrok back in.
3. And one more body needs to be removed - maybe Robertson gets a month with Marlies, or Gregor (what happened to him?), Lagersson, or Jones gets waived.

And, if they make a trade they'll need to move one to add one.

No?

He's a missing piece, not the missing piece, capisce?

It's a nice place to visit. Always stay in the same hotel just off the gay district. Really affordable and clean. Plus, we got to walk into a latex fetish festival by accident when trying to get supplies from pharmaprix.
