WHIPPER
ParticipantAdios chuck!
Chuck wound up in the hospital in Hawaii, I hope the hospital recovers.
Chuck Norris didn’t die, he just decided to try living underground.
WHIPPER
ParticipantKadri to the Avs, holy fuck, they’re FOR SURE my team now.
WHIPPER
ParticipantI’m glad OEL is still here. Solid D at a really good AAV for a few more years. Mini-rebuild inbound.
WHIPPER
ParticipantAs expected, big day for the leafs!
LOL
Minor trades still may trickle in.
But it looks like only McMann and Roy out the door.edit:
Maybe Laughton out the door as well? But havent seen it posted anywhere. Thought he would have been a good 4th line center going forward3rd rounder …. from LA
Becomes a second if they make the playoffs.
WHIPPER
ParticipantThat was wasted on a bunch of pylons and resulted in going from 1st to last. And no better players available as pending UFAs coming either.
So great job! Worked out amazing!
I know you’re severely retarded, so I’ll spell this out for you. We have that cap space next year. And the year after. And the year after that, etc.
I would rather go from first to last and rebuild properly than run the same fucking team back for another 8 years.
Literally, EVERYBODY knew this year was going to be a step back, but no real fan cares about regular season superstars, the playoffs are all that matters.
WHIPPER
ParticipantHere’s hoping the selling brings back some useful stuff. I mean I know it will be a late round pick, but at least Marner turned into a 1st.
Marner also turned into a fuck ton of much needed cap space.
WHIPPER
ParticipantSo who’s everyone going to root for in the playoffs? I’m going with The Bolts.
Avs for me.
WHIPPER
ParticipantSounds like they need one OEL Stat!
or Carlo.[/quote]
Yeah, I’d MUCH rather keep OEL, he’s a beast. Carlo doesn’t command near the return that OEL would, though. Tough call.If you’re doing a FULL rebuild, you trade OEL. If you’re trying to do a fast retool, you trade Carlo.
WHIPPER
ParticipantYikes, Parayko declined to waive to go to Buffalo, (can’t blame him). Sucks for Buffalo fans. Might as well grab OEL for slightly more;-)
Why do teams announce trades when it still requires a player to waive?!?!
WHIPPER
ParticipantWell I didnt have Roy has a possible trade target for the leafs to move out, but Tre actually got a 2027 1st rounder and the Avs lowest 5th round pick (2026)
Maybe that means Laughton is staying?I really hope so. I like the idea of having players here that want to play in Toronto and can handle the pressure and media. He’s also likely to take a team friendly contract to stay. McMann may be the same, I read somewhere that he’d get 5×5 on the open market, but would take less than 5 in Toronto.
Is there ever situations where a team trades out a player (like McMann) as a true rental, with some backroom deal to re-sign in the offseason? Obviously, nothing could be officially agreed upon, but I don’t recall this ever happening.
