Marner is talented but UG’s crying is making him gone so fucking worth it that I’m loving it lol
I’m sure he’ll find another topic to bitch about.
3.5M is not a top 6 winger. Move Kampf and Reaves out, and we have like 9M and change, not to mention Jarnkrok.
Let’s see what Tree can do before opening night; it’s only July 2nd.
They’re not spending over $25 million on the top line. They had a top line winger making less than a million last year. Also you guys are also dismissing the possibility of Cowan who won the Stafford Smythe Memorial Trophy just like Marner did the year before his first year in the NHL.
They’re not going to go hand out another $7+ million multi year contract especially when the GM isn’t signing anyone else to multi year contracts.
If the right guy is available through a trade, they’ll spend the money. Trade means money going out.
Kadri for Kampf and Jarnkrok, straight up.
Let’s hope their m-ntc doesn’t put a wrinkle in that trade proposal or Kadri NMC.
Friedman suggests that Naz interested in coming home. Would probably cost more than those two
So we are keeping our powder dry?
Until the trade deadline?
Might still be in the Ehlers negotiations – apparently he’s going slow.
Otherwise ya, looks like Tree is saying no to any major overpays on these guys bottom 6 guys getting term and $$.
Or look for bargains later in the summer
So what, if anything, do the Leafs do tomorrow?!?
I like the idea of going after Mangiapane & Tanev and probably Connor Brown . . .but that leaves something like this:
Knies – Matthews – Maccelli
Mangiapane – Tavares – Nylander
Tanev – Roy – Brown
Lorentz – Laughton – McMannI’m not sure Domi fits in. I mean this lineup offers over $7m in cap room – and it assumes that Domi, Jarnkrok and Kampf all find new homes – although I’ve always loved what Domi brings in terms of passion. But something like Tanev – Roy – Brown would offer speed, checking, tenacity and some size/physicality. A 4th of Lorentz – Laughton – McMann would also have some size, cycle ability, solid forecheck, decent speed on the wings and work ethic.
The problems ultimately – line 1 doesn’t get any more competitive; line 2 doesn’t get much better defensively; there’s not a ton of goals in the bottom-6 still, but probably as many as we have had – they would likely be scored on less and it creates a lot of PK options throughout the lineup.
I do think Macelli makes Domi the odd man out.
With Barkov seemingly signing for roughly $6M, the Cats are going to find a way to keep Marchand.
Tell me again how no tax states aren’t a massive advantage?
Get a load of this idiot.
What kind of load?
Someone get some mental health peeps to AA’s health
Kinda late
Panthers would still have to trade somebody like Rodrigues to have enough space for Marchand who probably wants at least 7.
I’d bet Marchand is willing to take far less than $7M to run it back again.
They can’t afford more than $1M with some bonuses that count against next year. He’s gone.
I think they move Domi and add Marchand and Mangiapane.
Hope they dont offer anymore than $6m per for Marchand….simply not worth it. IMO
Way more concerned about term than AAV
imagine crying over Tarasenko who makes 4.75m scored 11 goals.. and won a cup with stl, 7 years ago
If the Leafs are going to waste cap space on soft wingers, they’re better off doing it with guys who at least have a chance of of proven playoff success.
Or maybe you enjoy watching the Leafs keep make the same mistakes and lose every year when it matters.
Enjoy Malgin 2.0.
He’s an RFA next year when there’re real FA options hitting the market. I have no problem with team taking some chances on guys with expiring contracts.
