Niskanen is about to get 7 million per year.


And people complain about the phaneuf deal
- jbold

That's just nutty. He's worth 5mil at most (well maybe more since Orpik got 5.5mil )

I don't know about everybody else, but I'd rather have Stastny and Boyle at 11.5 over Polak, Komarov, Robidas, and Frattin at over 10 million plus of mediocre talent!!!! We win again!
- ThePresident

Agreed... leafs management continue to accept mediocrity

He gets websites to judge him on the suits he wears every game

In womans magazines he talks about the flowers he keeps and waters while singing guitar songs to them.

He's made of glass.

I think it's more we just don't know what kind of Lupul we will get from him or if he'll stay healthy.
- CanadianBodmon

This.......

Always injured. His play was seemingly much softer this past season and it corresponded with his increase in modelling shots. Not saying there's a correlation but it is odd that the guy who increases his fashion bullpoop starts playing like a wussy.

We all know what happened when Sean Avery turned to fashion. He became a useless twit. He was always a twit but once he became a useless twit, that was it for his career.

Lets dump a guy that wants to play here and can produce 20-30 goals
- Mr_Smokey

And a good cap hit.
Just dumb

Stastny alone would have asked for $8M+ to sign with this garbage team.

17.2M
10 spots left

Not including frattn


How much did he get?
- MTL1

RFA

Good draft and good free agency


I like it

Stastny wanted to go to.a better team... plus backes and oshie are.there

I'm happier with Robidas than Boyle.

Stastny at 7mil per year is TERRIBLE. He's a 60 point guy that isn't great in his own zone. Also Boyle didn't want to come to Toronto, so that point is kind of moot (to the other guy you quoted).

Agreed... leafs management continue to accept mediocrity

But the fans love it

Good draft and good free agency

I think they will add one more vet player.

He's probably better than Dion tbh...
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Yeah not a chance

- ThePresident

They obviously didn't want to play there since they signed somewhere else, no point in crying over players the Leafs never had.

And a good cap hit.
Just dumb
- Fakepartofme

Complains about stupid contracts and mediocrity.


Loves Lupul and his broken body and his 5.2 million cap hit....

Stastny alone would have asked for $8M+ to sign with this garbage team.
- daeth

Even if the Leafs were on par with the Blues. He'd still ask for more to play here, simply because of the taxes.

I'm very pleased with the Nylander pick and the Polak trade. I really hope some Marlies can make the jump tho.

I think they will add one more vet player.

So would Nonis, but that wasn't an option.

How are you not getting this?

I'm happier with Robidas than Boyle.
- Feeling Glucky?

I dont, broken legs dont deem 3M...boyle is the healthier individual

Nonsense

So what, he likes to dress well. Newsflash, life is easier when you have money and know how to dress. That's the dumbest reason for souring on a player I've ever heard.
- Jeffmt

This guy likes to dress well too. Maybe he can replace Lupul


I kid I kid

So would Nonis, but that wasn't an option.

- Big_Lightnin

He thinks every player wants to sign with the Leafs, and if they dont, its because Nonis didnt talk to them..

I'm happier with Robidas than Boyle.
- Feeling Glucky?

That's sad.
