Never angry about talking hockey but curious to hear what Toronto fans think. If it's not meaningful & gets personal, I'm fully capable of responding in kind & move along until another day. I have had my rights revoked twice. Once by Blogger Garth & it was trivial. I didn't even use profanity. Now I simply refuse to read his blogs nor James Tanner's for that matter ever. I post on hockeybuzz daily but can't stay with the threads as it goes way outside hockey.
I just don't find the discussion or debate as informative as some other options. It should be but it gets way off topic but with expansion looming I'm curious about what many of you think. |

Marner was by far the best player in the rookie camp, I think he sticks and I think he will win the calder.
Maybe Mathews wasn't trying as hard cause he comes from a mens league, but they both look like gems. - the_eye
If Marner sticks I can't see him starting anywhere but the 3rd line with Matthews. Nylander should fill the #2RW spot. Insulate them with vets, who ever fits best.

We're a bunch of idiots what else is there to know.
And we should never ever be taken seriously.
Dissing our team is a no no and any of the players that wear the crest.
It kinda gets a lot of us upset. |

I agree and so does Kadri, gotta have guys like that.
3 or 4 more with that motivation makes a team like Chicago. |

I didn't start it just commented on someone else's post. I would have preferred to stay on task but someone went off on a rant so off base, throwing out a bunch of false info & representing them as facts, he wasn't even close.
I'd much prefer to debate & discuss Toronto's line up like the subject heading for this blog asked.
Toronto is a great young up & coming hockey team that in the blink of an eye has completely reversed Toronto's fortunes & positioned them to be a power house in the NHL in very short order. They are in transition with numerous veterans holding down the fort & providing leadership until Babcock can get the kids integrated & playing his brand of hockey. Neither he nor Lou are just turning the keys over to the kids much to the chagrin of numerous people posting here.
Ice time will be earned, veterans will teach the youth a small # introduced each year.
Nylander may very well play with Matthews in camp awsome. Nice to have a look at part of the future in camp but Nylander will eventually be a C in the NHL. Come opening day he won't line up with Matthews. Even exhibition is meaningless. When the games start to matter what is supposed to be will be. Nylander will play with Kadri Toronto's best defensive C & Matthews will be sheltered at least until both show they are fully ready to lead as opposed to follow & can fully play the system.
As soon as they are trades will happen top start moving out the odd veteran to be replaced by the other prospects ready to move up from the Marlies. 2 out of the gate, perhaps 1 in or around Xmas no later than the All-Star break. Injuries will allow for some small opportunities until then.
My question which no 1 answered was. Does Marner get more than a 9 game cup of coffee? Do you see Toronto riding 3 rookies essentially right out of the gate past Marners 9 games? Is this a good business decision to potentially burn off a year of his eligibility in a whole range of ways, contractually;ELC, waiver, arbitration & when he achieves UFA status. Factor in They are still at least 1 if not 2 years from being a legitimate playoff team.
If this is a long term plan then wouldn't it make more sense to send Marner back to JR. Protect his rights; all those mentioned above, until next season, solidify the D & bring him in with next years batch? - striker777
This all makes perfect sense except your need to keep on a task set by Mike who actually lives in Buffalo.

That's awesome, finally gets out of the cesspool and wins a cup. Should've got the Conn Smythe too - Hatboro_Swords
Well, I wouldn't say cesspool, but I'll definitely concede "cluster(frank)"...
And yes, he should have got the Conn Smythe too... but the people voting on that are the kinda folks who think that you can "grit" your way to the cup... |
