so 10-11 mil is the rate now for a 2nd line/ low end 1st liner
in my mind players that used to get 5-8 mil

fun times

I dont understand why Chayka needed to burn through all the cap space immediately.
leaving some flexibility would come in handy.
are still a few ufa that can probably be had for really good value deals now

interesting season coming

Minten 7 years 7.2mil contracts are getting wacky

just a couple weeks till we see the Leafs back in action in a split squad games.

having four games in two split quads games is not a good way to evalute who makes the team. IMO.

for most seasons, probably. But I think the roster is pretty set, maybe 1 or 2 spots at most

[senstrolltwo]

some counting stats. if they are accurate
for those that care.

MOST BLOCKED SHOTS BY FORWARDS
LAST 5 YEARS

Auston Matthews — 417
Elias Pettersson — 385
Alex Tuch — 380
Alexander Wennberg — 355
Anze Kopitar — 351

Matthews leading all NHL forwards in blocked shots over the past 5 years also second in take aways 304

iv gotten over Vlad being any help to the Jays this season, if the can get it done, it will be without him. what a disaster season. so confusing after the playoffs.

This is the future: Artur Akhtyamov. One injury and he comes up and maybe never goes down again. Rielly could be better this year, knowing that he’s on the bubble. I hope that he stayed in shape because the alternative is gone!

If Rielly is better, my money for the reason is on the coaching style, and the same goes for Matthews. Berube the longer he was around the team got worse and worse as he really got to put his stamp on the team. good riddance

[senstrolltwo]

The Goalies concern me, Bob was awful last season and Stolarz always misses time.
If they are trash its a lost season.
I dont think Rielly is untradable, I just wouldn’t give him away. if hes in a lesser role, not expected to the the #1 top dog, maybe he can be sheltered more.

[senstrolltwo]

Iv come around to Hiller as coach, the most important thing is Matthews getting back to his normalish self.
Defense that can move the puck better will help. Just a weird season coming, I really dont know what to expect, and then you have the Mckenna part.
I am looking forward to this season, which is a lot more than last season where I barely watched any games, let see if they can hold my attention
