I wish I gave a shit about any of the four remaining teams.Just wanna see this shit season end and get to the draft day deals.
The oilers are flying, hoping they win it all. Get McDavid his cup.
Frank Seravelli on Sportsnet this morning said the leafs have been gauging interest in marner with other teams since last summer. No team wanted to a trade unless it came with an extension. Apparently, leafs were looking for a deal they liked and then were going to approach marner. He also said that he has spoken with several players who have been in the “orbit” (his word) of the core 3 and in the “orbit” of other top players in the league and he was told that the core 3 just dont work hard enough, seem complacent and dont seem to want it as much as others. That seems to fly considering what we’ve seen the past several years.

ParticipantWe need Cush29 and Aaron to moderate this place like they did in the past.
Or anyone. This place is already polluted with nonsense at times. Get him out.

ParticipantThere are certain posters we’re hoping don’t find their way over here, fingers crossed
Too late.
We’ve already got king garbage over here.
No one missed him in the other site.More nonsense from the guy who doesnt know what communism is eh.
For the right price, JT can still be a 50pt 2nd line center or shift over to wing or the 3rd line center role.The ol’ Tavares doesnt help this win nonsense……it was his goal that got the leafs to the 2nd for the first time in decades.
But ok.Apparently Shanahan nixed the below deal of dubas’.

You cannot possibly be serious. Florida didn’t win the division because Barkov and Tkachuk were injured, Ekblad was suspended for 1/4 of the season, and, quite frankly, they probably coasted for most of the season knowing they could just turn it on at any point in the playoffs.The Leafs didn’t choke, Florida just pounded them into oblivion like they did to Tampa, like they’re doing to Carolina, and like they’ll do to whoever comes out of the West.
I know its an excuse leafers like to use…”oh lord, florida oh so tough….such a superpower”. Yes, great team. The Leafs had a 2- 0 series and a 3-1 lead in the 3rd game, the series went 7 games
So no, they didnt pound the leafs into oblivion…..not even close. Had they “pounded the leafs into oblivion”, the series would have been over in 4 games….if anything, they are pounding the canes into oblivion…but the canes have a history of being swept in the 3rd round. The leaf CHOKED. Its that simple. Ya sure they choked against a great team…but they had a 2-0 series lead and 3-1 lead in the 3rd game.
They choked.

Florida is head and shoulders above just about every team in the league. The Leafs need major upgrades to compete on that level, but there really isn’t much out there in this year’s UFA class that is going to move the needle enough. Marner is gone, but paying him $14M wasn’t going to be the answer either. Next year is likely going to be a step backwards, but I’m curious to see what Tre cooks up.But they aren’t.
Didnt win the division and had the leafs not choked again, they’d be playing the canes.WHIPPER

Keith Pelley just spewing the same bullshit, but I believe the guy legit wants to win. Glad to hear he’s not hiring someone to replace Shanny.Honestly, what do you expect him to say?
But ya, no need to replace him just yet.Maybe its time to move out Masai as well.

I never mentioned Marner specifically, I don’t want to upset any specific poster here……. ????That being said I agree with you in his own mind he’s already at the club, grinding on a new team and his Leaf wedding ring is sitting at home on the dresser.
Mmmarner….
MARNER!!!
Mmmmmmmmarrrrrrrrner!!!
