    Laughton and even Carlo were questionable. Neither were on my want list.

    Also I got banned on hb also. what a weird situation there

    LOL
    What did you get banned for?
    Maybe AA is secretly a mod now?

    Florida traded their 1st and 2nd round pick capital for Marchand and Seth Jones. That’s what your top picks are actually supposed to get you in return. Not a bunch of garbage rentals or spare parts for 10 years of trash.

    Cool. Lucky for florida those two players mentioned only wanted to go to florida…..the leafs werent on their list. But we know that wont be included in your whining.
    Also, florida was $18 – $20m over the cap, so for those who go on about how amazing they were…..well ya….they were about $18 – $20 over the cap.

    But the leafs have wasted most of the 1st rounders….the laughton deal was horrible

    That why the Leafs get some of their player(s) into commercials.

    Those bullshit commercials don’t pay nearly what people think they do. And again, 55% of it is taken away.

    Nashville is a nice place for tax evasion since that state has no state income tax.

    Utah, Florida, Tampa, Nashville, Dallas, Vegas…lots of great options for players. Don’t blame them one bit for leaving because it’s by far, way better to live in all those places too.

    Paying lower taxes doesnt make a city a “better” place to live. It simply makes it better on the paycheck.

    Keep taxing millionaires!!!

    speaking of bonuses. JT won his case vs. The CRA as The CRA did not want to disclose the audit criteria errr something like that. So the judge dropped the case.

    For future cap crunching and tax dodging, the Leafs should set up a shell corp. in no income states, get their Canadian players US citizenship and pay them big signing bonus’ like they did with Matthews. If the NHL won’t change the rules, then the Leafs have to get creative and find ways around them.

    So if you’re wondering why bonuses are used, this is why. My curiousity is how the bonus is being used, those ways are what is beyond what I know lol

    pretty much, “They traded 10 years of 1st round picks”
    the leafs have had a 1st round pick in 7 of the last 10 drafts. And the 3 they didn’t, these were the 3 first picks Robertson, Knies and Minton.

    The leafs drafting is average and probably a little better than the average team.

    Wrong again, as usual.

    2009 – Kadri, traded for garbage. Won a Cup.
    2015 – Marner, will walk for nothing. Traded down from 24th to pick Dermott and Bracco, passed on Konecny.
    2017 – Liljegren – Traded for Matt Benning; no impact player.
    2018 – Sandin – Traded for future 1st round pick. Still no impact player.
    2019 – No 1st round pick. Traded for Muzzin. Did nothing. Got overpaid. Retired broken. Drafted Robertson. He mostly sucks, not an impact player.
    2020 – Traded 1st round pick to dump Marleau. Traded Kapanen for a 1st round pick. Made a bad pick, poor guy died. No impact player.
    2021 – No 1st round pick. Traded for 11 games of Nick Foligno.
    2022 – No 1st round pick. Traded to dump Mrazek. Drafted Minten. Traded him too.
    2023 – Traded for 24 games of O’Reilly rental. Picked Cowan with the pick they got for Sandin. Still no impact player.
    2024 – Traded down. Picked Danford. No impact player yet.
    2025 – Traded for McCabe. 2nd pair D.
    2026 – Traded for Carlo. Another 2nd pair D.
    2027 – Traded for Laughton. Retarded trade.

    So 10+ years of 1st round picks have indeed been traded or wasted, most of them got us garbage in return. Carlo, McCabe, Laughton (1 year rental), Cowan, Danford. That’s what the Leafs have to show for 10 years of 1st round picks.

    The Leafs being “average” isn’t going to win them shit especially when they throw away as many 1st round picks as they have.

    Florida traded their 1st and 2nd round pick capital for Marchand and Seth Jones. That’s what your top picks are actually supposed to get you in return. Not a bunch of garbage rentals or spare parts for 10 years of trash.

    Changing gears for a moment if I was a Sens fan I don’t think I’d want to see this. Sure it’s your brother but no shot I’d want him on camera, this happy about going to party with THAT team. I mean how can you not think the recruiting of Brady doesn’t go into high gear from the Panthers players while they all get drunk AF after a cup win and he can’t look at that and think “ya, I want this with my brother instead of living and playing in Ottawa”.
