Austin and Willy can do the 40-60 goals.
Who are the other two? - Nasty_Duck
While the numbers are exaggerated for effect and also not entirely accurate because of the difference in scoring etc. Tavares is on pace for about 37g and Marner is on pace for over 100. |

If Marner doesn’t get 5 pts tonight he’s a bum.

if they are keeping the chief then its time to get players who play his style. By By Mitch, (10.5) that could get chicryn on the D for 7 -7.5 then Bradon tanve for the 3-4 line at 4 (there used up Mitch's money and got better) Move on from "Mo" mo useless than ever now. that 7.5 could land a solid Dman not the flake they ahve now.
Sign JT, and start bringing in 3-4 liners that can play the game hard we don't have that right now. - monkman1967
I like it! I’d sign JT short term. Would be great to pay him one year at a time contracts. If Sam Bennett is available July 1st have a conversation with him. MM has shown for many years that in games 5,6,7 he is of no use to us. If he wants $14mil we are better off with two $7mil players. Two rugged 20 goal scorers are better than a soft 35 goal guy, with constant dipsy doodle giveaways!

It would be so leafy for the sens to pass the leafs in the standings. 😆 - Fakepartofme
Sens on a heater which will end and they will cool off and see a dip
Leafs on a bad run which will end and they will likely go on a small winning streak
It is the way of things in the NHL.
10 games ago we thought the Leafs were sailing towards the playoffs.. 10games from now things will look completely different again.
I saw a report today that JT is going to be signs 2x $5 mil.. cant remember where I read it |

I think this is a reasonable take.. The way I look at MM is like I look at a really good goalie that is always letting in the back breaking goals.
When MM is good he is really good.. But it is the untimely giveaways which he is prone cough up which seem to get worse in the playoffs when the ability to make plays gets harder.
MM = Freddie Anderson

In the Core 4™️ playoff era, the Leafs have played in games 5, 6 or 7 of a series a total of 16 times. (13 potential elimination) Here’s some stats for those games. Some idiot Canadian GM is gonna pay this winger >$13M/year for having a good 4 city Timbit tournament and I (frank)ing hope it’s not our’s.

Print this chart off, and put it on the table next to an $11.5Mx8 contract, or tell Mitch to F the hell off.

This would be excellent and it wouldn't surprise me if there was a handshake deal of a front office job in year 3.

That doesn't sound very Leafy. More like he signs 3x9mil and has a handshake deal to work as an anal-cyst at Sportsnet or TSN. |

That chart tells the story of the "Core" and their inability to get it done in games 5-7.
All we can do this year is hope it changes because if not the Marner negotiation is not the only time this chart should be pulled out and put on the table as a reason why changes need to happen.

It's not really an indictment of the entire core, ONE of those things is not like the others. |

Yet Marner has more career playoff points than all of them and has led the team in scoring multiple times. There have been years where Matthews had 1 goal in the playoffs. Does that erase everything else he's ever done?
It's a stupid argument. There is nobody available who you can logically replace him with at a lower price that gives you a better chance to win. |

The Leafs were really fortunate this weekend. Having Florida lose back-to-back in regulation at least keeps the door open. Tampa won, but that just puts them even. The Leafs just need to concentrate the rest of the way and split their games with the Florida teams. You'd think that they'd do better on the West Coast swing coming. But who knows with this manic depressive team?
This year is do it or die. They can't run it back one more time. Rielly's time with Toronto is done. At this point, I'm finished with that mini mercenary Marner. JT can stay at $5M X 2 or do the Walk of Life, Dire Straits style. The cap recoup will make it easier to build a more well balanced team around Matthews and Nylander. A possible step back, next year, and reload may be in the cards. The D, sans Rielly, needs another variant that can actually run a powerplay. Chychrun UFA? |

A real quick google search of "tavares contract" ....looks like the "report" was in fact some user on Puckpedia playing with the contract prediction function.
https://heavy.com/sports/...-predicted-extension-nhl/
A couple of weeks ago the talking heads on SN/TSN were suggesting something like 3 x $7M was being discussed.

MAtthews has shown for many years in clutch games he is of no use either.
Bennett will sign an extension with the panthers most likely. |
