Maybe but.... everything points out to him still believing Bergevin will turn this ship around.

I have seen this. The best part is when Domi asks his agent 'And this is in US?? Where do I sign?'.

And guess who handled the negotiation for the Leafs???

THAT'S THE FRANKING ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope Lehtonen is in net. A random, career AHLer will of course post a shut out against us because...why the (frank) not...

I could also see Polak back.

Another 1 year, $1 million contract.

If he sucks, push him down to the Marlies and don't even make him report.

No risk involved.

Regardless, it has nothing to do with him and his play for the Leafs. The team cannot use that as leverage, nor should they. It is his own business, not theirs. He should be paid what he deserves based on his play and not less because of any advertising deals he has with organizations outside of the Leafs.

If he wants to take less then good on him, but it's solely his decision.

Paid in Bonuses were his salary for the year is 2 mil with 8 mil in signing bonus

Lupul will never see another game, couldn't pass a drug test.

As much as 8 million a year would be like a dream it's not realistic. 10 to 11 Million is still a discount.
- Aaron_85

10 million like Eichel is fair. Neither is Mcdavid, Eichel and Matthews are very close.

Bingo!!

Mr Augello next time you interview Bill Watters can you ask him for his recollections of overpaying a cement head like Tie Domi. Thanks.

He sucks now and he's still playing so a hard pass to Polak coming back.

Leafs will simply sign Ribeiro, and then when Lupul flunks the test, the Leafs just say, "it probably came back positive because of all the residual drug stuff from when you tested Ribeiro. So much coke in that guy's urine, it was bound to throw off all the testing equipment."

Don't get me wrong, I"m not saying I would bring him back.

I'm just saying I won't be surprised if it happens.

If we haven't sent Lou out on his ice floe by free agent season, I wonder if Kovalchuk lands in Toronto.

there was no cap then so what does it really matter.
according to that dropyourgloves site. Domi made 14 mil total in his career
that doesnt seem like a lot

I'm telling you, he gets bored with the Lottery Simulator after 6 hours and comes in here to try and feel better about himself.
- RickJames77



I assume after 6 hours of attempts, he still can't get the Canucks to win the simulated draft lottery

He wants JVR money. I rather pay JVR if that's the case.
