His giveaway to takeaway ratio is 1:3; he'll never fit in with our team strategy.
- Monkeypunk


So for every 1 giveaway he has 3 takeaways? Isn't that a good thing?

He will be in the press box for pretty much the whole season anyways, so who cares about this signing.

Bergevin will no doubt turn the Laval Rocket into a playoff team..
- PatC80


Fun fact. Our AHL team has made the playoffs once since he's been GM.

zero risk...pushes the bottom 2-3 players at camp....this barely even qualifies as a move.
- Barx


Dubas gave him a contract so he can be on his summer ball hockey team. Then he can play on the Marlies next year.

Leafs sign Tyler Ennis.
If I am Josh Leivo I am extremely unhappy at this point. Waiting around for JVR and Komarov to bolt and then they bring in another guy.
Training camp will be interesting.

- Rang


Not be a Richard about it, but to be a Richard about it: The Leafs clearly think Leivo has talent or they would have jettisoned him instead of some of the others, but he doesn't seem to grab it.

I don't know if he doesn't work hard enough in practice. I don't know if he doesn't mesh well with the team. I'm not there - I don't know. But there is something about him that keeps the Leafs brass pushing him to succeed, and watching him (at least in their eyes) fail.

If he's not in the top 12 after this year's camp, he should be traded for his own sake.

If (frank)ing Tyler Ennis bumps you down the team's hierarchy, you just suck.

End of the story.

Leivo just needs to be better than a depth signing to have a chance.

Ennis scores 45points on the third line this season, and everyone will rave about Dubas.

Sorry, that was a joke. Last year as a team, we had 953 giveaways to 690 takeaways.

just what the (frank) we need; another smallish swede whos soft as slime.

dubie is probably gearing up to trade kasper the friendly ghost for justine faulk. that would be a mistake.

Gardiner plus for wilson

what a (frank)ing joke

edit: nice alliteration

You guys remember last week, when John Tavares was a good hockey player? Man, those were the days.

thruth to be said, leivo hasn't been given much of a possibility by babcock.
the limited games he got, he was quite ok.

He's going to surprise I think, I'm surprised Dubas wasn't on him....he used to play for Keefe.

That's wild though, glad she's ok.

Marlies won the calder cup right?

I honestly do not know what happened besides them making the finals.... and that's just because Mike started putting it in his blog titles (I don't read the actual blog).

Ennis will be on the 2nd line and then dealt to Edmonton for a 1st rd pick at the deadline.
That's my hot take.

Marleau-Matthews-Nylander

Ennis-Tavares-Marner

Hyman-Kadri-Kapanen

Johnsson-Jooris-Brown.
