I don't know what they don't like about Leivo, he seems like a decent prospect to me who can score a little

Wouldn't be surprised to see them still get re-signed to cheaper deals.

Though the organization does seem to have lost patience with Leivo and Percy

Percy and I think Leivo.

Augello's been tweeting updates on that brutal 2011 draft class.

you need to remember that qualifying offers must be 10% more than the previous salary unless they made over a million the previous year. then its only 5%.

i imagine the leafs might still wanna sign these guys but not for the minimum qualifying offer.

yeah... cap management has become so important that its better to risk losing an asset to try and get him on the cheapest deal possible

Career AHLer likely, although the guy can score a bit when he's called up. 7g in 28g or something.

at 170lbs i dont think he really fits where the leafs see him playing moving forward

with the young talent the leafs have at forward for the future top 6 leivo would be at best a 3rd or 4th line checking winger.

and at 170... he really doesnt fit the role physically

He's way bigger than that now and he plays pretty big. Are we talking about the same guy?

I have not read anywhere the confirmation of Leivo not being given a QO? (just no information on him receiving one).
Any clear info on this (I guess I missed this?)
