What’s the lineup look like with 2 of Rieder/Beagle/Roussel signed?


And don’t post a lineup without Eriksson and Gagner, let’s be real here

- Nucker101



Baertschi Horvat Boeser
Goldobin Sutter Granlund
Virtanen Gagner Eriksson
Gaunce Beagle Leipsic

This lineup screams “we’re going to be young”

Just finished watching the France vs Argentina game with about 100 passionate soccer fans....great match!

Did Benning over-commit to a few plugs yet

Our wins next year will be from the growth of young players. That’s where we are. July 1 isn’t a day where we’re going to build our team.

If they stick to this and actually sell off some players, I'm going to be a lot more happy with this management. I really like the picks this year, JB has done his job with these drafts. Hopefully the right development people are in place.

Remember when Benning overpaid Dorsset 5 years ago giving that plug 2.65 for 4 years ? Well dummy Jim is at it again five years later offering out another one of those contracts to same type player

Ennis is a UFA tomorrow now, were hoping he gets signed so you can have a brain haemorrhage

I don't mind some short term toughness in the bottom six but there's currently a ton of bottom six bodies right now already.

.350 more than what Dorsett got 5 years ago. Dorsett earned every penny of it

They need a center, but they don't need a lot of term when they sign one. If they do.

There is a difference between hiring a goon to fight and a guy that has 8 hits a night crashes goalies , stirs the pot.

Whomever hires Reaves will overpay . We don't need a goon we need an agitator

I think he signs back in New York or goes to San Jose.

I've yet to see a legitimate reason as to why he would sign with the Leafs. They're about to lose Matthews back to Zona and Nylander to Calgary. They're much further away from being a decent team than people think.

I like SJ now. But they don't have enough youth going forward. What will they look like 2-3 years from now?

He’s being sarcastic/trolling. Not a single Leaf fan thinks Matthews is going anywhere lol

Another comparable to Roussel is Leo Komorov whom Maple Leafs gave him 4 years 2.95 mil per. This is not a huge over payment if the numbers are correct.

Roussel reminds me of Komorov and I love that guy It will be interesting to see what the Rangers pay Leo.
