Now that the Leafs have added Kevin Gibson, there is a logjam at goalie. Who gets moved? Murray? Hildebeast?

Time to let Robertson have a fresh start elsewhere.

Schenn, for the record, is a poor playoff performer. Despite playing tough, hard-nosed hockey and playing hockey "the right way" - he's a minus player pretty much every year with surprisingly poor production. The year they won the cup, he was second only to ROR in ice-time, but he was tied for 7th in points on the team with 12 in 26 games. When he was 20 he had 9 points in 11 games and that was almost his high water mark for production per game in the playoffs. Last year he did manage 8 points in 12 games, but they were all assists.

He also has only 1 GWG in 75 playoff games. I mean there's a part of most of us that likes Schenn, but I think he has more reputation than delivery. Let a Boston or a Tampa Bay acquire him. It's why they don't win cups anymore.

He’ll fit in great in MTL.

Tries real hard, but comes up short.

yeah..if I understand it correctly. your team can go up 5-0 and if you score the 5th goal.. the other team comes back to score 4.. you get the gwg?

Id think adding schenn makes sense if you are keeping JT, more depth for Center. not replacing JT. same age, prob around the same cost and less production.

but Id aim for someone else if you are spending assets it would require to get schenn

- senstroll


You have both the near-term and the next-term down the middle.

This year we have Matthews - Tavares - Domi/Holmberg - Kampf. I'm not too sure who the viable centre options are in the system - like Minten, Steeves, Quillan - etc. But if you plan on renewing Tavares and acquire Schenn you're pretty old down the middle, plopping a decent amount of cap into aging centres - and while I know they can shift to the wing, you'd hamper your supporting ability by putting approximately $14m into having Schenn and Tavares going forward.

Personally I don't think he's worth it based on (a) his reduced role would provide reduced output; (b) his linemates on the third line would likely be a lower quality than the Kyrou/Holloway linemates he has now. Here he'd likely get some combination of Domi, McMann, Pacioretty or Robertson - none of which are on the same level as Kyrou.

Philipe Myers is a perfect human being and can do or say no wrong.

Mitch is staying. 15 x 8 with full NMC/NTC

Cope.

Agreed.
Leafs need to get a bit younger, committing to both Jt and schenn, wouldn't be the best use of cap space imo.

That announced cap rise sure helps him get it. Probably even more than a Myers endorsement.

From the Leafs or someone else.

Solid W by the Leafs last night.

That was a BS call on Matthews late in the game.

the only thing I would mention is that the leafs time is now, this season, next.. I am not overly worrried about age right now, just the best team that can win something.

like please just win something..I dont care if its a 33yo center or 27 as long as they can help now. ill worry about how young the team is after a cup..they are just supporting the core 3/4

Projection at it's finest.

You should be more understanding - the mailman has a long route to deliver mail to, he can't hang around and play sticky biscuit over Marner pics with you all day little man.

Brayden Schenn on the trade block.

Price? Within reason, don't care, he's worth it. Good long term replacement for Tavares if and when he doesnt take that massive discount everybody expects.

Bring both Schenn boys in and go for it.
