That's still a pretty questionable top line.
A bit soft at this stage.
Maybe in 2-3 years if everyone progresses.
Otherwise more of 2nd line (behind the eternal Sedin's)

I don't think Bo, Granlund and Boeser are soft at all - all those guys can take a hit, Granlund and Bo are actually pretty tough in the corners, Boeser's still a ? mark obviously, but as far as i can tell, he's no pu$$y.

I think there's lots of teams that have regular size (soft) 1Cs and are having success. Ottawa, Minnesota, Tampa, Calgary. And I don't think having the big power 1C like Getsclaf, Thorton, Scheifele is a pre-requisit to win.

Because they leave Saudi to shop in places like Dubai, as soon as they come across the border it all comes off and they dress normal, they are so frickin hot!

You know if they can cut some deadweight, Sutter, they can sign Tavares, Turris and Kane next summer for 25 million

I know its almost impossible to happen, but if Canucks signed Tavares, and had Petterson on his line, tickets would sell so fast.

I was joking, he'd never sign here, Toronto is his home and they're in an awesome position going forward to win, if he doesn't sign in NY I'd be shocked if he didn't go home.

Toronto cant afford him, unless its a 1 year deal, with a new Matthews/Nylander/Marner contracts that wont be cheap. Unless of course they trade one. I think he pulls a stamkos and stays on the island though

I met this girl in Peru in the 90's. Her grandparents on her moms side were Japanese and Peruvian and her dads side her grandparents were German. To this day I have never met a more beautiful woman.

If Pittsburgh can fit Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, Letang, Fluery etc. all in under the cap and win the Leafs can find a way. They have a ton of space after this year.

I met a young lady in Turkey that was just stunning, and there's a lot of beautiful women in the world, she was unbelievably beautiful.

Thats true, this will probably get flagged, but if the leafs can keep the 3 young guys, and add Tavares, they will be a cup threat.

They'll basically have between 35-40mil from next year till 2019 to sign the main 3 kids. Which will be upwards of 25mil, then they have about 10-15mil left to fill 13 roster spots.

Green on Virtanen “Last year was a bit of a wakeup call but adversity is good. He had a great summer of training.”
Green says goals wont decide if Virtanen plays in the NHL, “I am very excited to see him at camp.”

To be fair, they probably need a couple defenders and a goalie though.
Not that i really pay attention to their team.

If we are taking JB at his word (which i don't really tbh), then it's good to hear that he'll make a spot on the team if any youngins force his hand, like he did with Stetcher last year.
I too am looking forward to seeing Brock and JV at training camp.
I'd like to see some fisticuffs during training
