I think he is. I think people have 'imagined' a set of facts exists b/c they want to be pissed off at WN and/or Dubas.

WN is great ...and in all likelihood will be back on the ice for the Leafs unless some team jumps in and offers something Dubas can't refuse.

I'm guessing like everyone else but the way it's played out tells me Dubas hasn't put a bridge deal on the table and that's what WN is waiting for. The long term deal wasn't going to work for either side.

I agree with everything here. I’ll be curious to hear when they start talking. Everything still seems quiet on that front. I wonder if they’ll wait for the last week or days before they have meaningful talks. Seems like a game of chicken at the moment.

Nylander has signed an 8 year deal @ $7.5mm per year.

And then was traded along with Max to Carolina for Hamilton and Bingo!

Winner winner chicken dinner!

no deal.
Bingo will try to recruit Rod Brind'Amour, Ron Francis and Cam Ward to come here.. We can't afford to pay those guys too.

I'd do that deal, but then flip Bingo to Edmonton for a 6th round pick.

I just can't get mad about any of this poop ...I'm too happy.

14-6 ...with their best player missing 1/2 the games and another top 5 guy missing the whole year. The depth is ridiculous.

Maybe you missed the part where we get rid of Max.

Shut your dirty whore mouth!

Oh no.. I got that part and would sign off on that... Issue is, can we afford to take on Brind'Amour, Francis and Ward as well?

as long there no teeth involved. go for it.

Was it you that wanted Dubas?

and (frank) you too.
- BINGO!

Damn, you're a busy guy but I can wait!

Was it you that wanted Dubas?
- bryant

Yep.

Instead we got the GM of a failed franchise and a head coach that was unable to put together a PP for 8 years.

I'd be pissed off if I was paid according to the job I used to do too.
- TheMussel

You get paid for the job you currently do.

And as a stripper, youre just no good.

Lol

Z has 2pts do far.

I wasnt fan of the deal when it was signed...not a fan.
Hes honestly only worth about 2m per

I think he’s been a lot better this year personally. I still hope for more out of him offensively but he also doesn’t get pp time or a lot offensive zone starts. Babs has him strictly playing defence it seems.

Hasn’t had a primary assist in like a year or something I think? Lol

He's been unnoticeable for the most part. Just fine in my opinion.

I still can't believe the number of top-end players we have. We had 0 just 3 years ago

I can’t believe how bad he is with the puck in the Leafs end cause he doesn’t look like a guy with no puck skills.
