If you want you can go back the last two years and find where it was explained

We r not a city of lemmings paying for a bill of lousy goods.
If the Canucks suck there r empty seats.
Now explain the phenomenom of Hogtown?
Its unique to the entire world of pro sports.
Its the fans who pay not the owners.
Here we r more sensible.

God, could ever imagine if Southern Ontario got a second team. The Leafs would be abandoned quicker than a ginger step-child.

finally someone who isnt a dill hole when I ask a question.

You mistake sarcasm for dill hole responses

Time for a Leaf math lesson...



Stupid in = Stupid out
Anyone can open a wallet & pay for a loser.

50yrs is proof positive.

Step right up for some snake oil....

Sure, it complicates. These contract types are pretty standard though so I don't see how they can be labeled Benning specials.

The only truly immovable contracts here are the Sedins. They have a lock tight NMC to the end and are a package.

Both Sutter and Eriksson have to submit 15 team lists in a couple of years and the Canucks can cover salary.

The Canucks have left a door open for a tear down post Sedins. At least that's how I see it.

Tumbleweed is an idiot...no point responding

Don't argue just to pick fights. The roster is not the problem, you are.
- Marwood

I was being sarcastic ...and making a joke ...I can't tell if you are or not

and by the way.. is that your only "go-to" move when you are embarrassed and have nothing to say because I see you often ask that question.

- Beatle_john

Would make too much sense & could move the Leafs to QC👍

That means there is 16 teams to work with. Will they want him? Like you say,,, that's the tough part but the 15 list is anything but a full NTC. Sutter's kicks in when he's 30 which would be the first post Sedin season.

I don't expect to see either of those players late in their contract term.
- boonerbuck

When only 16 teams make the playoffs, and he will essentially be a rental at that time ( 1 year remaining) I think it will be a tough situation.

I agree though that both will likely not finish their term with Vancouver. I feel like we might get a repeat of Benning's statements about NTC's handcuffing him by the next mgmt group.

If rebuilding through the draft was quick and easy, everyone would do it.

enjoy another fruitless TDL. Hopefully this year, benning won't be a buyer at least.
- Tumbleweed

He has never been a buyer at the deadline. An effective troll at least has minor knowledge of the subject

Why are you guys even responding to this troll (frank)tard?

Years ahead in the rebuild.... 3 points up.


Therefore, STFU you know-nothing-know-it-all.


And I did not add Marner and Mathews cause you would cry and we cannot have that.


- Beatle_john

They won the lottery. We slipped. Imagine if luck went the other way. Put Mathews on our list and who ever not named Laine and Mathews on theirs and the rebuild doesn't look so far ahead of us.

Let's not forget how much they had to fail to secure the best odds at #1 as well. Take the prize for sucking but stop beating your leaf about how much better you are than us.

Shink for grandlund

More buyer than seller

Im with you there.

So? I'm sure Markstrom would take next season's salary right now but he'll have to wait til next season for it. You are kinda dumb.

Sorry, could you type louder... we cannot hear you.

- Redmile247

Lost another safety. I don't think they'll go into Pittsburgh and beat the Steelers so if they want to win a playoff game they need to win this weekend and have KC lose.

Still though, really young team aside from the D-line. Another couple of good drafts and they could become something.

Winning the lottery is Southern Ontario winning an expansion team.
The market is starved for an NHL team & overdue.
Why Bettman cannot see the untapped market there is astounding.
