ParticipantThere could be misdirection at work here. Get everyone sniffing over there, while your making your move over here. It maybe someone off the board.
The Leafs have interviewed at least 15 people because they’re looking for anybody that can buy into this re-tool bullshit.
Clearly, there is no misdirection except for how this franchise is being run.

ParticipantLeafs talking to Patrick Roy and Peter Laviolette to be coach of the Leafs both perfect choices to plunge the Leafs into pissing off the players and plunging the team into a rebuild.

ParticipantSoon the playoffs will be over. This playoffs have been very underwhelming. The Habs series’ seem to be the best, because they had lots of overtime and a pair of 7 game series. So really, the best hockey was played in the Atlantic division. In the last few years, I’ve called the Atlantic the division of Hell. It takes a lot to get out of the division. The Habs rode a hot goalie and took out two contenders and had nothing left, after Carolina had a vacation with Ottawa and Philly as their opponents. The West was the weaker of the two conferences so I’m not sure how to handicap this final.
Carolina has played at such a high level all year that yes, they got lower seed teams but they took care of business. They didn’t choke. They made playoff teams look like they didn’t even belong in the playoffs. Carolina would have beat Buffalo no differently than they beat Montreal or anybody else in the East. Everybody wants to pretend like the West was weak but the reality is, Colorado was the top seed and got SWEPT. They beat Minnesota and Minnesota beat Dallas. Anaheim and Utah were not bad teams and Vegas beat them both. These are two untraditional markets fighting for the Cup but the teams are two great teams and it’s going to be a great Final to watch.

Participantcannot wait to see the epic gangbang back at carter hart’s hotel room after the golden knights win the cup. you think marner will get in line for some action?
no matter who wins, the leaf nation will either have to watch marner lift the cup or andersen lift the cup.
i really wish we’d get our shit together and take back the cup from that gang of pedos south of the border. americans have had their kiddy-diddling hands all over our fucking cup for too long.
agreed

ParticipantIf San Jose is a moron to trade for Rielly, wouldn’t that also make Seattle a moron as well?
I’d think Seattle would need a sweetner to take on Rielly 4yrs vs. 1 year of Dunn.Because San Jose is an easier sell to UFAs than Seattle so they’re more likely to be able to pull in quality players. They’re less likely to have to settle for a shit D like Rielly with other options available. Rielly won’t be traded until every other option is exhausted and teams get desperate. San Jose is less likely to get desperate for an anchor contract and a bad D.
Seattle on the other hand is run by idiots. They just added Melinda Gates as part of ownership. They don’t give a fuck about winning a Cup. They’re just trying to win the woke Olympics. And Rielly would fit in perfectly. Again, to a team like Seattle, adding Rielly gives them a guaranteed player for 4 more years at 7.5 AAV. Any UFAs they hope to add would cost them much, much more than that as they’d have to grossly overpay to get somebody to live and play in Seattle much like the Leafs have to grossly overpay players to sign in TO.

ParticipantSan Jose would be pretty retarded to take Rielly, even if they do need guys on D. They’d be likely to attack the UFA market before they add pylons like Rielly.
Also, Rielly can’t play D and San Jose needs guys to prevent goals and Rielly causes goals against rather frequently.
I don’t care where he ends up but I’d say Seattle is a place he would land because it’s close to Vancouver without being a terrible team.
Vince Dunn for Morgan Rielly is the type of trade that the Leafs might be able to get away with. Just take a bad expiring contract and give Rielly a new place to go to.[/quote]

ParticipantIv seen a lot of Mock drafts go
Leafs – Mckenna
SJ – Reid
Van – MalhotraIf it does, would you offer Knies for #4 to try and grab Stenberg #4?
I really like knies, but I think his value at the moment is a bit higher than his actual value or on ice impact. He can still get better of course.
Tough call.But Stenberg should go 1 or 2 imo
Nah, trade Matthews and Nylander instead. Rebuild hard.
Knies is under 25. If Hyman scored 50 after he left, Knies could become the next premier power forward somewhere else but he’s young enough that if the Leafs sell hard enough, they could turn the team around and make Knies useful before he exits his prime.
