Yup...

Its either get Stamkos or aquire all our skill through the draft..

If we reach contender level maybe try to fill a weak spot, but no major trades.

It's a free agent signing.

I highly doubt that. The broadcast is terrible.

No..


PJ Stock, Milbury, Healy, and Rhudy were horrible..

Kyper is one of those guys who likes to pretend to have the inside scoop, but he doesnt.

They still are. But I'll take Ron MacLean over Strombo any day.....and the segments were just better before, despite the personnel. The play by play was better too....Healy is just unbearable regardless though.

I dont mind Ron...

I dont watch it and judge everything stombo does.. he asks the questions, thats all.. i think he brings something for the younger generation obviously and thats who they're trying to attract.

idk why people get so bent out of shape about signing stammer at say 11mill

kane/toews are making 10.5 each. its no different in my mind. hes an elite #1 center at 25 years of age that you can get for zero assets.

i have no issue with free agency being used as long as you dont build through it. the exception of course would be when someone like stamkos comes along. but no more stupid david clarkson-esque signings where everyone is over valued

and no building through trades either. a good steal of a trade is great, but plucking a seguin like dallas did hardly ever happens.

the leafs are doing fine... after this draft we'll have the best prospect pool in the league (IMO - maybe ARI or BUF are in the mix too).

marner nylander is a great start.... stay the course

ahhhh kyper. yeah he doesnt have inside knowledge at all lmao. but i actually quite like him as a TV personality. i love the banter between him and doug mclean and whats-his-face is a great host. sometimes, even though i know the tsn guys are more credible, its just fun to listen to them.

tho cox is an idiot. like a HUGE idiot. simmonds is also cringe-worthy on tsn. and dont get me started on don cherry. he should hang him up already......... like good for him for still doing well into his 80s but man hes just racist and embarrassing as far as im concerned

What do you mean? We're last in the league and our prospects give us nothing to look forward to. At least that's the sentiment out west.....

So viewership on HNIC is down 20%......because the Leafs are poop.

It has nothing to do with the preppy Greek and friends and the broadcast being a shell of its former self, huh?

Oh.

And?

Most do. They see the game differently than the others. Unique vantage point. At least he's not an arrogant idiot with a grudge (Healy)

Id rather hear Sakic or Lidstroms opinion rather than a goalies. Theres such a thing as over analyzing a game. At some point you start to think maybe the guy who has never scored a goal shouldnt be giving insight on how to score goals.

To this point, no one knew that Corrado suffered a separated shoulder during the playoffs and played through it. It depends on degree, but generally it’s a 3-5 week rehab for NHL players before they can play again.

Q: Did that impact you for weeks?

Corrado: Months.

“It happened in the first round. It was Game 3 against Chicago(AHL Wolves). At home. I separated my shoulder. I played the rest of the playoffs with it.

“It’s one of those things that take a long time to heal. Throughout the summer, especially when you have a late summer like that, there wasn’t much I could do.

“I had to let it heal. When it got time where I could really push it, it was basically training camp.”

So, he just played through a broken hand and a separated shoulder and was given up on by a team who concluded he had a poor training camp even though he couldn’t work out in the summer?

It also was a reason Corrado didn’t play much with the Leafs when he arrived.

“It was easier in (Toronto) because there was a plan. I knew they had a plan for me. They had a picture of when they wanted me to play.
“Knowing that there was a group who had a plan for me, made things easier. They talked to me, let me know. ‘Keep getting stronger,’ they said.

“The time off, I got a lot of time to work out and that helped because I missed the time in the summer.”
