They will sort it out without the expensive and slowing down Lucic.

Exactly. Tuomo Ruutu will be available this summer.

So many good things happening for the 100th Anniversary.


Anybody else think it's Illuminati weird that the Leafs get Matthews and Stamkos plus the definite additions of some of the other top prospects...Nylander, Hyman, Sosh, Marner....plus Zaitsev, plus maybe Vesey, plus the other 50% roster turnover that Lou said which will probably get the Leafs a #2D and #1G, plus the 11 other draft picks and ALL of this on this specific year?

(of joy)!

Jesse Ventura is already looking into it.

. All I keep thinking about is how we have 2 possibly 3 players next year that should compete for the calder trophy. How often does that happen? I know I'm getting ahead of myself.

That is entirely a possibility, but an overpriced Lucic shouldn't be.

Thinking about the line up and whether it will be playoff good next year.

1st Line: JVR, Stamkos, Nylander
(Willy setting up JVR and Stamkos would be ridiculous...Marner not ready for 1st line yet.)

2nd Line: Lupul/Hyman, Matthews, Marner/Brown
(Matthews plays a similar style to Tchachuk or Dvorak. Marner will slide in perfectly with Matthews and Lupul.)

3rd Line: Sosh, Kadri, Komarov
(We all know this one works. If Sosh dips in performance slide in Hyman.)

4th Line: Greening, Laich, Michalek
(Veterans to slide up and down the line up as needed or when Lupul gets injured...Greening moves up with Matthews and Marner.)

Instead of leaving blank spots, I will pick possible players. Since everyone thinks a deal with Anaheim is possible. Here's the D.

Reilly, Vatenen
Gardiner, Zaitsev
Harrington, Hunwick
Corrado

Andersen
Bernier

BABCOCK at the wheel.

SHANALOUDUBAS running the prospects ala Chicago plan.


I say that could be a really good, playoff bound team. #tmltankover

Stamkos signs in Toronto? Awesome summer, 1st pick and him!



Stamkos don't come to Toronto? Don't care. Still drafting 1st.



The Summer of Toronto. That's going back several years when Ek called on off season that. Better late than never.

Yup. I still feel like Lucic is a serious option the leafs should consider especially now. Perfect timing for a winger with size grit and scoring prowess. Lucic-Matthews-Marner

No thanks. Skill first, the only skill Milan has is remembering where he left his car keys, and that is even rare.
