The guy they took with the 1st from the Lucic trade(Zboril) went right where he was expected to go.

It's the guy they drafted with the pick from the Hamilton trade that's a head scratcher.

Fair, they took someone rated in that area, but left prospects that were rated higher like Barzal on the board

Edit: Also, Debrusk wasn't in most 1st round projections

I'm just reiterating my point that if you get a good offer for retaining, you do it.
- Schenn-Sational!

Can't imagine how good that deal would have to be regarding those Leafs.

it's closer to 3 mil than it's to 2. and only for 1 year. not 6 or 7 yrs.
- zazzle


the odds of the leafs trading kessel and taking on 2 mil for 7 years is about the same as us winning the cup, if not worse.

im not worried about it at all.

Couldn't trade Booth for anything at the deadline. Most likely no point in bringing him back.

Not making a lineup, just looking at roster space with available players we currently have.

Jvr - Bozak - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Panik
Komarov - Holland - Leivo
Frattin - Carrick - Bailey

not much room right now to even sign people. We want to bring up some AHL players.
Who do you move? who isn't on the roster on opening day?

Auston Matthews here we come

Brewer looked decent enough to me besides the first couple games.

It really is.
Those are the contracts on the books right now.
Hopefully after the frenzy ends, the Leafs can move some contracts

I said right at the top as a disclaimer that I wasn't making lines. I was simply using the format to figure out who we have on contract currently

Hate to say it, but the Bruins made a good trade today.

I wanted San Jose's 2016 pick... could wind up top-3... especially since they look to have a goalie with 30 games experience as their #1.


They managed to get 2 1sts and 2 decent(if unspectacular) prospects out of Lucic.



See what retaining 2M gets you?

- Schenn-Sational!



2 m for 1 year... bit different for our situation

Not much of a race with Chara, Bergeron, Krejci, Marchand and Rask. That's enough to be in that sweet spot of 10-14 picks. AKA the Leafs Zone

exactly. Retaining for more years requires even more of a pay-day.
- Schenn-Sational!



I dont think any team would offer what its worth retaining salary for 7 years

chara is getting up there, and Krecji was beat up badly last season, gibbled.

marchand i think is still heart broken that Segsy was run out of town

I'd be looking to sign Kadri long term with this contract.. He's coming off one of his worst years (as is most of the team) so management would have that on it's side for negotiations. 4-5 years in the low 4 mills would be alright by me.

It'll look way better once you remove Kessel, add Hodgson and Glencross, and don't add Franson, Belleskey or any other new long term contract.
