ParticipantMcdavid will take a home town discount
with the Leafs
How do the leafs dump Matthews to pull it off is the main question.
So McDavid is going to leave a team that went to the Cup Final twice, leave Draisaitl, live in a worse part of the country AND NOT play with Matthews.
That’d be hilarious.

ParticipantSo like I said, you have no real argument (only excuses) for why Tavares, Nylander and Rielly are still on the team with Berube as head coach because they all absolutely suck defensively and provide zero physicality or two-way play.
Nor should they be. Line 2 is not the defensive line of the top 6, nothing unusual for a team, and a non defensive d man who is a 50P threat at $7.5? That doesn’t bother me either.
I know you love the guy but Marner is a crybaby, and he’s been one since he’s been here in London. Talented as hell sure, but he’s also a big ass whiner. I genuinely hope that playing in a less intense market will be better for him, southern Ontario is not where he belongs.
This is a joke of a cope.

ParticipantMinnesota Wild dropping huge cash AND term on a 28 year old who will be 37 when his 17M per year contract ends and who has never scored 50 goals in a single season is a pretty ballsy move for sure.
Mc Jesus will get 18M per year or more now guaranteed.
Don’t see how Edmonton can spend $31M for McDavid and Leon with no goalies and no D

ParticipantOk I’m giving JT the pass now, the old vet is still damn near a PPG and he signed nice and cheap deal to make up for signing for what turned out to be too much. Please keep in mind it wouldn’t have seemed to be that high if that Covid lockdown didn’t happen either. Him being a little high at the first year or two of his contract isn’t abnormal in this league, problem is due to that 2 year lockdown on the cap he never escaped it so he always seemed too high. The guessed thinking when it was offered would have been that cap should have been at least his salary higher when his contract ended.
Rielly… the on and off light switch? Come on man you know what year is coming up lol
Nylander has been climbing at what he’s good at so let’s just hope that continues. He’s a speedy ass offensive threat that keeps the opposition on their toes. They know that even if they have the puck if they accidentally give it up and he’s on the ice watch out cause he could take off with it because he doesn’t play a physical D and they know it. So that is Nylander’s defence, sticking inside the opposition’s head.
When it comes to Marner it’s unfortunate but his demand obviously had to do with take home, which meant more than $13.5, which was all the leafs were willing to offer cap wise. So if take home meant that much to him, he had to choose a team in a lower taxation location.
As for the other comment about Ford lol, and lol again, I was waiting for you to say that. Just saw him on the news chatting in the hammer about video cameras getting used more, is that guy ever going to learn how to talk? lol

ParticipantMust be why Tavares, Rielly and Nylander were removed from the team. Oh wait, that’s the sound of that argument imploding.
He was worth much more than what they offered. Just because he was willing to take a form of discount doesn’t mean he was going to take a total discount.

ParticipantMaybe the budget will include more injection sites. That’s always a guarantee to fix everything.
Send them to a government paid hotel room. Works every time.
Avoid this man…
For instance for roughly $250K plus homes
Canadian federal government taxation: 33%
American federal government taxation: 37%Ontario Conservative government taxation: 20.53%
Alberta Conservative government taxation: 15%Ford is the iffy one atm who needs someone to go chat with him.
Ford is basically a libtard wolf wearing blue sheep clothing.
