Coyle resigned with CBJ
6yrs X 6M. dude’s already 34.
Nobody wants to play for CBJ. With the cap being so high, both floor and ceiling, undesirable teams will continue to overspend to attract players. The Leafs have to do the same with the shitty market pressure, increased taxes and now also a terrible team.

Well? The Wild are on their knees. Colorado is looking like champions right now. I can’t see them being stopped going forward.
Wild and Avs are putting on a pretty good show tonight. Nothing shaking in Leafs land. Too bad that they wouldn’t just move on from Berube, but maybe they’re waiting until the end of the year to see who may come available. Hopefully, the Leafs can package a goaltender and maybe Nick Robertson for another mid level first rounder to help build the farm system, or a 1st next year to use when their first gets taken away by Philly.
Kulak, Andersson, and Marchment are on my wishlist. Have to figure out how to jettison some dead weight, though.
The “dead weight” will refuse to waive their NMC unless Matthews is first traded. Only then will the rest of the rats flee the ship.
Sundin already said he won’t ask anybody to waive their NMC. Big surprise there after he fucked the Leafs at the deadline when he was a player. The old Muskoka Five leader is here to protect the new Muskoka Five.
It’s going to be the same shit box team with a new coat of paint.
Draft needs to be a trade down to increase assets. Best case scenario is doing a deal with NYR or VAN for a late 1st plus a top 5 pick. VAN seems to be a disaster and could be swindled since they seem really pissed off they aren’t drafting 1st overall.
Free agency should be absolutely nobody. This team needs to rebuild, not blow more cap space and long contracts on older, overpaid UFAs.
The only free agents should be 1 year deals that they can trade at the deadline when they finish 9th.
Matthews and Nylander also need to be traded with 50% retained to maximize value to bring back at least seven 1st round picks worth of value to kick start the rebuild and to get the rest of the old, overpaid slugs like Rielly, McCabe, Tanev and OEL to waive their NMC and trade them for maximum value.
I think McKenna has a bit more bite to his game, than Patrick Kane. He’s only 18 and 6′ tall. He could grow another inch, in a year or two. It’s imperative that they bring in Gary Roberts as a strength and fitness coach and build this guy an NHL caliber body. He seems to have the scoring touch. He just needs to mature into an NHL body. Many are speculating on whether to trade down to get more assets. I think you keep him, unless it’s a trade down into a top 4 pick and another 1st comes with it. I think Matthews is California bound, I’m just not sure where? My guess would be San Jose with the Patrick Marlow influence paving the way. San Jose will be next year’s Buffalo.
