    EF expects the Marner to Vegas trade to happen today. Let’s just get this done and move on to the next chapter.

    So they can bring in Roy, a big body who doesn’t use it (less playoff hits than Marner) and can’t actually play center because his FO% sucks (47.7%).

    Looking like a wild card, 1st round exit kind of season.

    You can always choose to not watch or talk about it.

    Roy averages 218 hits / 82 games in the playoffs by the way.

    Marner averages 118 / 82 playoff games and let’s be honest – no one has ever felt one of his hits.

    But Roy isn’t equivalent to Marner and that’s not the comparison that’s being drawn out.

    Roy’s 82 game playoff average:

    10G, 23A, 3 GWG, 14:26 ATOI, 49.9% FO%, 49 Blocks, 211 hits, 46 Takeaways, 49 Giveaways

    Kampf’s 82 game playoff average:

    9G, 7A, 2 GWG, 14:15 ATOI, 54.3% FO%, 21 blocks, 136 Hits, 21 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways

    That’s a decent upgrade in an area where we need more physical presence.

    Nic Roy has had 3 deep playoff runs of 19 games or more; on the entire Leafs team these are the players who have had more games in a single playoff:

    Carlo – once
    OEL – once
    Jarnkrok – once
    Tanev – once
    Reaves – once

    That’s it. I’ll take the experience and the acumen. I’m still not sure this thing is happening, but if it does – I’d rather get something than nothing and Roy is a decent 3C option.

    So pretty much the same thing the leafs have been the whole time (outside of twice) Marner was here.

    That’s literally the point of my post. Marner decided long ago that he wasn’t going to remain a Leaf, so let’s get it done and over with. We can bitch till we’re blue in the face about how the Leafs mismanaged the situation, but that accomplishes nothing. But you seem like the kinda guy that screams at clouds, so go off.

    Leafs would be better off with Colton Sissons than Roy in terms of getting an actual 3rd line two-way C.

    The Panther sign Ekblad for 6.1M cap hit for 8 years. WOW damn good deal if he stays healthy.
    What does Marchand do now??

    No tax strikes again. Fuck Zito.

    Winning strikes again.
    Also Ekblad has been a panther his whole life…he’s pretty much a floridian now. Why move his family.

    Whatever he can to remain a Panther.

    I’m not opposed to the Leafs throwing money at him, but not for more than 2 years. He’d be a force in the locker room to change the compete level of this team.
