The Leafs have a large window, but ideally they'd want win or at least be a serious contender in the next two years. The Leafs are a very (frank)in good team b'y..

While every other team gets weakened by the expansion draft the Leafs will only get better. We have our franchise player, our #1G, a nicely developing blueline with whoever we add this offseason.

The time is now. And I think that front office is itching to win it all before having to decide to do with the holy trinity.

Go Leafs Go

TITS!

No contender who's window is next 1-3yrs getting weakened by the expansion draft..

I was a kid when it happened. I remember the scarred bloody face. I thought he was a Red Wing when it happened. Turns out it was when he was playing against the Wings.

the side deals might end up being the biggest mistakes.

contenders are going to give up a lot of picks to protect their teams.

yeah, but they'll end up with nothing to trade to load up. so maybe they won't get weaker, but they will have a harder time getting better.

If i was Mcphee. Side deals for first rounders for 2017-18-19. Spread them over 3 yrs. Hearing there are up to 9 possible side deals. Vegas wont be a good team for at least 3 yrs, but with all these possible side deals being 1st rounders. Look out.

If no one has anything to trade for load up than the contenders will all be in same boat...

Contenders..

Seems many fans are upset that Min/Ducks/Preds etc didn't have to trade away all the young talent they have rather than giving up to LV..

Media sell job on loads of trades was a massive failure...

if contenders aren't getting better, means we'll have an easier time catching them.

who's upset? they need to stop listening to the media.

you know what's up. vegas cornered the market. the house is going to win big here.

Many fans knew thats exactly what would happen over teams being forced to trade away for fear of losing to LV.....


Dont forget it's a business owners get 17mil doubt contenders care about losing a couple draft picks to keep talent and compete next spring.

Mcphee crushed it. Not easy to negotiate 7-10 deals in a short time with 7-10 different gm’s.


Most gm’s take 2-3 years to make that many trades.

only TB and Montreal slipped through the cracks.

p.s.: (frank) off

Is anybody really worried about the huge impact this hand out will have on the Leafs? What if Vegas pick Boyle? That's fine, but is he not a UFA come July 1st?

So did Kadri.
So did Seguin.

Neither player lived up to expectations early. Both are very valuable members of their teams.

Work with him before dumping him for a 3rd.

Besides, I doubt whether even a small fraction of these kind of roomers is true.
