Both go to Marlies? How much cap does that clear?

I think he got banned for being a GIANT member

Didn't you guys find him on another board?

Check out how he's handing this.

- iTOLDu

capgeek has already moved some of the 17 forwards down

I wouldn't be surprised if Orr and Kontiola don't make the team.
- AdamFrench

everybody was anointing this guy 3rd line C... but I agree with you.
I think Holland's ahead of him. And Winnik damn sure is.

market value right now, but in a couple years it will be phenomenal.
- MapleLeafsFTW

No I meant market value in that he's not worth the AAV right now but he will be in a year or two and will prob be a bargain for the last 1-2 years.

nope, sorry, can't agree there. Bolland can put up 15-20 goals. Winnik will need 3 seasons to do that.
- Badge

I bet he gets 10 this season. And let's see how Bolland plays this year. My guess is he's on a big decline starting now. Loved it when he came here, but that money for him is just stupidity. I'm glad he signed it tho bc it makes me feel a tad better about Clarkson.

All of Winnik, Booth, Frattin, and Kontiola's contracts add up to less than what Bolland is making.

I think the Leafs made the right decision on that one.
- MapleLeafsFTW

this I agree with.

Ohhhhhh sorry, agreed!

I dont mind the deal. If Gardiner has a big year, it will be a steal. Even at 10 goals and 30 points, its fair value.

I bet the habs wished they had locked Subban up to this kinda deal (He wanted about 5 per) woulda saved them a boatload of money iver the next 3-4 years. Lets hope Nonis made a good preemptive move here!

Just put the kiss of death on that deal

Good job

I wish we had Bolland ( healthy ) competes hard every shift - wish we could have seen more ( last year ) 😚

not really sure what you're basing that on.
Agreed it's stupid money, and I was referring to you @$3M. Bolland at $3M would have been excellent.

Guys, I have a confession to make. All this time, I've been hiding my true identity, which is Buff Bagwell.

Seeing him in the KHL, I don't know if he can play 3rd line C, unless that was an offensive zone starting line. Interested to see how he does in training camp though.

Careful, I feel compelled to warn you Dozzer was on felatio watch earlier. Regardless of how aroused this comment may have made me.

- DoubleDown

I actually think he is worth the value now, considering what defensemen are getting paid these days.

Oh dude pop open a wine spritzer or something. Where is this deal being ripped? It's fine. It's what you'd expect. It's not a bargain, it's not a risk, it's market value.
- DoubleDown

It's a great deal for the Leafs because this deal just raised Gardiner's trade value BIG TIME.

Thanks for the head up.

As you highlighted it's just a guess. A feeling of mine. Not being a dink either I just have a feeling he's gunna start becoming more brittle and no way he comes close to being worth that contract. I exaggerated at 3. 3.1 though.

I was young but Roberts-Sundin-Mogilny were great when they got put together.

For skill and impact I was a big fan of Gilmour with Andreychuk & Clark. But my all time favourite was Berg-Osborne-Zezel. That was a line that knew their role and did it well.

John Lester or Cole Hamels?


(I'm sure I'm late)

Big surprise.
