Maybe 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…

Marner would have stayed for less than 16.And this fantasy about Berube’s style is a myth. Marner played two way hockey. Nothing changed before, during or after Marner.
Berube wants fast/physical north south hockey and he said it himself. As for Marner staying for less, he was offered less and he said no.
Must 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.
Thank god the Leafs didn’t overpay to keep Marner like this.
The fact there is only one poster who spews his garbage on here daily about how the Leafs should have overpaid Marner (who by the way didn’t want to stay anyway) simply shows the vast majority of Leaf fans are fine with the Leafs not making this same type of mistake with Marner.
And to preemptively respond to the “Marner left because of the fans, media, crime blah blah blah” – suck it up buttercup. Marner is the poster child for spoiled, soft kids. He has been told his entire life he was special and better than everyone else and when he wasn’t he took his ball and ran away to somewhere new where they told him what he wanted to hear.
Great player but spoiled brat.
If he was a pro athlete in a single person sport with the talent he has he may have had far more success but he’s not built to be a team player and it became more and more obvious as his time in Toronto came to an end.
Oh 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.
Marner would have stayed for less than 16.
And this fantasy about Berube’s style is a myth. Marner played two way hockey. Nothing changed before, during or after Marner. Proof is Nylander and Tavares are still there and both absolutely suck balls defensively, non physical players.
I recently ate at “The Squire”? across from the arena when I was in London with the kids for the Korn concert. Downtown was looking rough….or so it seemed…maybe all the construction?

Every city needs to do this. Round them up and send them all to one dystopian shit hole like Barrie that is already ruined. Problem solved.

?
I don’t know what’s going on either lol
Quick FYI, ELC contract years still get used up in the AHL. So Cowan gets a new contract in 2028 one way or another. Looked into that last night and that’s how it works. Leafs or Marlies has zero to do with his current contract.
ELC contract years will start being used up because he’s 20, yes, but it wouldn’t if he was still 18 or 19. But he still has never played pro hockey yet. As I have said elsewhere, Nylander, as a rookie, only last 22 games after 2/3 years playing pro level hockey at his age. Cowan needs top-six minutes in the AHL. Playing 8 minutes in the NHL is a waste of his development time, even if it isn’t wasting his contract years.
Leafs should probably bring in Reimer (or another UFA vet) on a PTO with Woll being out. Reimer could easily play as a back-up for a few weeks and at worst plays for the Marlies if one of the Marlies goalies finds his way on the Leafs to start the season.
Is he injured already?
No, off for personal reasons that won’t be addressed. I’m curious if it’s a family funeral.
Funerals are usually a lot quicker than this seems like it is going to be. Somebody important to him is probably sick with a serious illness. Same thing happened to Aaron Rodgers which significantly delayed his signing with the Steelers this summer.
Leafs 1st unit PP looked horrid vs. the Senators. Matthews missed a breakaway to seal the game. Leafs lost in OT. Classic Leafs. Good thing these games don’t matter but it wasn’t pretty.
Thanks. Anyone see the clip of JT today? Dudes going to get 40 and be on Team Canada.
No chance.
None.
one guy completely sabotaged his own site
Wasn’t worth much anyway, he gambled a broken site.
So this site still has problems with you quote something quoted and you still need to edit your post before you can post or it just mysteriously vanishes?
Have there been any fixes over the summer? Are people still just . . .dealing with this and posting here because this at this point it’s not particularly impressive for a message board to have this many bugs.
Seems to work good enough. These platforms are dying and dead. This is what is left.
They could save the year of his ELC by not using him at all until the playoffs. If he plays so well in the playoffs that he’s worth playing more than 9 games, then so be it. But if we have a situation where we have McMann (or any other plug like Jarnkrok, Kampf, Robertson etc.) scoring 0 goals like they did last year, pull him out of the line-up, put in Cowan and see what it gets you.
I guess that’s my point… what’s more important, a year of his ELC or production from the lineup right now? I say fuck it, sell off that garbage to whoever will take it and play the best team.
But like I said, this kid has to prove he can play pro hockey at a level needed. Honest question for you, where do you see him? A top six offensive guy? Or a middle six two way guy?
He is small so if his offensive game isn’t on a higher level, like, Kane, Crosby, Marner, St. Louis, chances are his ceiling is 2nd line winger but probably 3rd line two-way PKer, maybe like a Darcy Tucker. Good complimentary player but not a franchise cornerstone. Some are saying Travis Konecny, which makes quite a bit of sense.
It’s probably a minor strain, Domi has a habit of doing a lot of offseason cross training where he plays multiple non-hockey sports.
Oh I know, he’s expected back before the end of camp let alone preseason. Just one of my dumb jokes lol
FYI, gave it some thought and I like what you’re saying about Cowan except one thing, fuck using up one year of his contract BUT mainly keep him on the Marlies. Call him up and send him down as needed nice and easy tho, isn’t that a nice thing considering all the little hiccups the NHL is trying to put into place cap wise? Waiver exempt guys might start getting used a bit differently, nice and helpful IR coverage.

And Domi is already hurt lol

nor will he sign with a Canadian team.
I wouldnt count Edmonton out on this one.
Ive read a few articles that say he’s not interested in playing for a Canadian because of the sex scandal
I don’t blame him. Most of the Canadian teams are in woketarded markets. But, Edmonton gives him the best chance to compete for the #1 job and win a Cup while being the least shitty place in Canada to live, minus the harsh winter.
