Your lame denial only confirms what I've suspected for a while now:

The Oilers are trading McDavid to the Leafs.

You really screwed up by accidentally typing it here.

Dropped the wife off in Truro yesterday morning with Team NS, going to the Eastern Canadians in Quebec City. 2 buses, over 100 on the team in total. Wifes bus was a 2015, and beautiful. It makes it to Moncton and breaks down. They had to get them a new bus. long story short, 15.5 hours to get to Quebec City yesterday..

Year 1:
JVR - Kadri - Brown
Komagod - Matthews - Lupul(for a few games until injury)
Sloshnikov - Nylander - Hyman

Year 1:
JVR - Matthews - Brown/Marner
Komarov - Nylander - Brown/Marner
Sloshnikov - Kadri - Hyman

Kadri line in both years handles the other teams opposition. That 3rd line in year two has a ton of grit and defensive responsibility AND some offensive potential. Kadri always gets PP time. Eventually Komarov replaced by one of our million forward prospects. Leivo, Leipsic, Johnson, etc.

Another year with kadri on the top

But the future seems brighter

Have the World Championship rosters been this poop in recent years?

Or is the fact that it is in Russia this year scaring guys away?

I get that top guys don't want to go if they are in consideration for the World Cup of Hockey, but c'mon, they should be able to at least attract regular NHLers.

Care to tell us how the Leafs are going to fill the holes left by sending Bozak and Corrado to Edmonton?

I'd rather another year with Kadri on the top line than Bozak

But neither is ideal

just looked up their team, here's a list of guys who i have never heard of:

Frank Vatrano
Vinnie Hinostroza
David Warsofsky
Miles Wood
Hudson Fasching
Tyler Motte

- matt1337

Played on the Booins for a bit this year (AHLer that shoots the hell out of the puck 3rd line depth scoring potential)

Played at BU and was drafted by the Booins as well. Traded multiple times, last team was Pittsburgh this year I believe

Sabres prospect, big winger. Played NCAA for University of Minnesota

Ouchie.

I guess the silver lining at least is at least they broke down in Moncton - as opposed to in the middle of nowhere on a highway.

When does the competition start?

Hopefully not today - I can't imagine a trip like that would be good for the kids' performance.

Yeah, with all those rookies the Leafs will probably not be near a playoff spot. And I think Bernier/Sparks will be the combo. After the season there will be an exhibition draft forcing teams to move goalies.

So 1 more year of sucking - but more talent, scoring and entertainment. Then it's game (frank)ing on female doges!

i understand why kane and brown would've turned them down since they rarely get any time off, but guys like parise, eichel, coyle, bjugstad, galchenyuk, patches, and others should be there
- matt1337



oh come on now... be fair... Patches probably was playing with at least eight injuries through the year....

Doubt Kadri will be the top center all year but he will probably start there. I'm hoping they keep Nylander at center. He looked very good there to finish the year.

actually... should deal them both to Vancouver...

and re-coup a pick from the Canucks.

that - would likely put few of the Canchuckleheads into the asylum.

nolan patrick looks amazing, i wish there was a consensus top defense, like an ekblad, that we could take high next year. we have plenty of forwards, but no real stud defense prospect

I remember Babcock saying he'd prefer to develop Nylander on the wing but trades and injuries forced his hand last season.
