Ah.
wait until he sees Marners 9.5 - 10 m per deal for 5 years.

He’ll be livid when it’s 11x7

Leafs are 4th overall, and tied with Calgary for 2nd overall in wins and ROWs with 41.


To the negative “fans” of the Leafs. As President of the Hockeybuzz Leafs thread (self-appointed), I would just like to say you are hereby banned from watching Leafs games and owning Leafs merchandise. Hand in your Leafs fan card and never associate yourself with the organization ever again. You are a female genitalia. Please (frank) HOHO’s hat. That is all.

I don't think that's possible for their pick to go to 4th overall. I think they either win the lottery at 1,2 or 3 or stay put. Also could be very wrong
- RickJames77

I know, you're right.. It just would've been fun to see.

I think it's fine to criticize Leaf management as long it's objective, constructive, and educated. There's a lot of hate for Leaf Management based on Dubas' age, or minor deals. People get their nuts in a vice because the backup goalie isn't very good. There is a management team at play, and we can criticize them, but they have been making well educated and well considered moves. Before I jump on the moves, there's usually a good reason for them.

There's nothing wrong with Nylander's contract. He's very young. When he gets mad, he gets more engaged. The same can be said of Matthews. They need to get to that place more and be more engaged. I think they will.
- Monkeypunk

Nylander will play well when he gets mad? They will live up to their contracts if/when they decide to get engaged?

Nylander is/was a 5 million dollar player, coming off entry with zero leverage. Dubas caved. Matthews also is not worth more than JT, actually less. Cap is (frank)ed going forward. This is the best year in terms of competitiveness so I will enjoy it, because the cap tear down begins in the summer and management did nothing to prepare for it.

No offense but you’re an idiot

.. ok, maybe a little offense

Let's go with a firm 'no' on this one.

Sorry, votes are only allowed for Humans, Gulls and HOHO's hat.

Wrong. These are your uninformed opinions. Sad.

Tell me why they are wrong.

Similar to this past off season.....

If we can acquire quality FA while giving up nothing.... that is good asset management

Eg. Duchene wants to play with his good bud Tavares.

We can sign him, and move another part for significant assets (Nylander?). That is how you build a winner.

Signing Matt Duchene is how you build a winner?

Holy crap that's good comedy.

No point in engaging with someone who tries to pass their poorly informed opinions as facts.

Tell me why they are wrong.
- aminnes

You’re arguing nylander deal is bad.. others arguing nylander deal is good.. as these are opinions there are no hard facts to back these arguments up.. therefore it’s a moot point.

So shut up you idiot

No point in engaging with someone who tries to pass their poorly informed opinions as facts.
- Dongull_Trump

And yet you seem to really struggle with actually addressing these so called poorly informed opinions.

As they are opinions there is no need to address them, k?

Nylander is a 5 million player because you said so?

Matthews > Tavares. Stats prove this.

Leafs are 4th in the league. Another factual statement.


Try again.

Tell me why they are wrong.

Because the gull never colluded with the Pigeons despite what the chickens say. He hasn't even had a phone call to Pigessia or business deals with Pingeons in years. Years. Anything else said about the matter is fake news perpetuated by the fear mongering chickens try try and pry the presidency from the gulls. Make Birderica Great Again and I, Gull, am the bird and the chickens are all total losers.

- Puck-us-all

He is not worth what he is getting paid, at all. There are guys on the Leafs right now making far less than he with far more value. You do realize contracts are given out for performance, so you can actually see whether or not they are living up to that value right? Keep stroking your Bonier bud....

Tell me why they are wrong.
- aminnes

They are wrong for a few reasons;

1- We have Pridham and Gilman two guys that basically wrote the CBA, so they know ways around it.
2- You're assuming Marner will get more than Kucherov.. When, he really shouldn't get more than Kuch.
3- The cap tear down, if it gets to that, will include guys that are not part of the core group going forward (Brown, maybe Zaitsev).. But we save money with Horton coming off the books soon and Marleau may develop jock itch like Hossa did and go on LTIR.
4-This team is being built for long term success, so even if we do lose some good players, we have guys like Moore, Bracco, Sandin, Liljegren that can come in an take their place.
