Question boils down to the following:

in a few years (2), Leafs will have to let go of at least one, but probably two of the following players.
which one can they miss most?

Nylander
Andersen
Kadri
Zaitsev
Dermott

- plantheparade


Out of those 5 only Dermott's contract is up in 2 years (if we are still including this year). I don't see him getting some huge raise.

Andersen is 3 years away. I think he is also being paid about what he is worth. I think any increase he gets will more then be covered by the increase in cap over the next 3 years.

Kadri and Zaitsev are well down the road, who knows what the cap will look like in 5 or 6 years. Kessel's 1.2 will be off the books by that time. Kadri will also be 32 by that time. Not old, but a lot of players start falling off at that time. Who knows what he will be worth by then also.

If they can get Nylander signed to a bridge 4 year deal. It will solve a lot of issues. Sure we may be screwed in 4 years, but who knows, a lot can happen it that time.

Would it be funny or sad if Buffalo made the playoffs this year and they didn't?

If Hutton becomes the only Blues goalie to leave and become a legit starter it would be funny

4 friends of mine are getting married/engaged in the coming year. One of my best friends is proposing in the Gatineau Hills this weekend. Or he's murdering her...not sure which.

In South Korea you could marry your favorite player's signed poster. This will also come in a few million $ cheaper than a real wife.

I think Pittsburgh is moving Brassard off of 3rd line center tonight, to play wing on the 1st line with Sid and Guentzel.

Just curious if this is better when it comes to line matchups for the Leafs or what. I'd say ya?

It would be nice to see kadri have a bigger role. Have him go up against Crosby’s line then let the rest of the lines just role out against whoever.

No, we tried this the last two games, but in trainings since then he is back centering the 3rd line.

Though expect Phil!! to have a good game tonight.

Oh true. Well either way it'll be a real entertaining game to watch. Can't wait for puck drop!

5-3 Leafs

Edit: Phil will be happy to get a couple hotdogs from his favorite hotdog vendor in Toronto today.
