Pretty strange that Chayka flew to the Yukon to meet McKenna but can’t go to Arizona to meet Matthews. You’d think that Matthews would have been front and center the day they hired Chayka.
Hopefully it’s a sign of a rebuild but the Leafs are retards so it probably won’t go the right way.
It’s funny how almost everyone excoriated the Leafs when they hired Sundin and Chayka. After Pelley stepped into the background, I haven’t really seen any major faux pas by the new Management team. It seams like they’re doing their due diligence in regards to front office moves and how they’re trending towards some of their more senior players. If they do indeed move Rielly for assets, then you have to call it a win. The cap space would make it more viable to take on bad contracts. Let’s see who they do hire for head coach. I’m hoping a young, teaching coach gets hired, and start developing the assets that the do have and will acquire. You can have an accelerated rebuild, if you make a series of good moves and overturn most of your roster. The issue is the two 1st rounders that will come back and haunt the Leafs, if they do get down in the bottom 10 spots.

RIP Cliff Fletcher. Hopefully the mentality of “draft schmaft” within the Leafs organization dies with him.
The failed Knies trade confirms that Treliving is a total retard. Like far, far worse than anybody could have imagined when he was first hired. Beyond JFJ levels of retard. It also tells us that the Leafs have some very high value assets. If a team, at the deadline was willing to trade basically three (or four) 1st round picks worth of value for Knies based on his potential, just imagine the return for proven players like Matthews and Nylander could get with 50% retained. If the Leafs blow this team up, they could accumulate the largest amount of draft capital we’ve ever seen in a rebuild.
Larkin would cost too much for the Leafs to acquire. Unless it’s for someone like Rielly, then it’s not worth it.
Larkin hates missing the playoffs so he isn’t coming to Toronto. He’s already willing to ditch his hometown team for playoff hockey so the Leafs aren’t even a consideration.
yeah that’s fine but he will go where his trade protection will alow him to go.
And he is so shit that his options are limited to very few teams. He wouldn’t block a trade to a team if they promise ice time.
That Montreal offer for Knies
The other prospect better be named Reinbacher or Hage, not EngstronZharovsky, ? and 2 1st
Should hire Treliving just to fire him again for that retarded bullshit. Saved by 1 minute.

He had 7 goals in 77 games for 6.5 million. His contract is so bad and he’s so bad he won’t have too many options. The Leafs can offer him ice time to rebuild his value and continue his career after this contract ends. They could also make him a deadline rental to a playoff team to give him a chance to play in the playoffs and get more draft capital.
I agree. His contract is putrid, but that makes it good for extracting draft capital. Let him play in the bottom 6, somewhere were Domi would usually play. Some team, at the trade deadline, might need someone to fill out the bottom 6 for a playoff run. You eat what’s left of half of his salary and take on a second rounder or a prospect. Force the Habs to offer up a first rounder to get rid of him and voila! He turns into a 1st and a 2nd rounder for the rebuild.
