Ok 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
So 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.
Minnesota 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

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.
Mcdavid will take a home town discount
with the Leafs
How do the leafs dump Matthews to pull it off is the main question.

keep AM
Sign him for 1 season, then give him the monster deal.

This is a joke of a cope.

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.

But the Leafs totally can and will win 8 straight Cups.

Wow, you continue to be such a whiny little fascist coward. Complain, complain, complain. Do us all a favour, get out of your moms basement and move your incel self to the freedumb down south.
You live in one of the best countries (no matter what your facebook follows say) in the world and you whine about everything all the time. Libtards, taxes, ford, blaming the leafs for marner turning down $13.5m per, you have all the freedom in the world but somehow none in your delusional mind, no one will love you, trans people are so mean blah blah blah.

Get a new schtick. New season, new schtickOh Marner would have cost a fortune to stick around for the $7.5 mill take home he gets in Nevada. In Ontario (and yes they are paid game by game so I’m keeping this very simple but it’s a truth) to get that he’d have to be making $16 mill. With advertising and only taking on 43 games in Ontario sure it would be closer to $15 but still, $13.5 in Toronto does not get him even close to what he now earns in Vegas.
Most importantly the leafs are a more well rounded team playing a more physical game. Yes Berube adjusted his coaching style last year because who the fuck wouldn’t when you have Marner in the lineup but both him and the GM weren’t going to continue that style unless Marner signed the deal that they drew the line on, and Marner didn’t.[/quote]
Marner could have been a hero had he signed for reasonable amount (my gawd Kaprisov deal is horrible), quit whining and truly showed up in the playoffs.
But he did neither.
How good and physical the leafs will be remains to be seen…only the results in April will matter. But for 9 years it wasnt working with this core. Things had to change. They did.
Some need to move on, let it go. This isnt marner’s dads leafs anymore…..marner ran away.Question is, with how old and injury prone the leafs seem to be….can the full team survive the full season? Can matthews be the matthews of 3 years ago?
The 3rd line does look great though.
