My expectations are tempered. Obviously I have higher expectations for some than others. Suzuki, Poehling, Brook, Romanov, Primeau, Caufield I expect to be impactful NHLers. I mean we already saw what Poehling will bring given that incredible game he had against you. 4 goals in his NHL debut

Member when you guy's used to blow your loads over McCarron and Hudon?

Can't remember the last Habs prospect to pan out unfortunately.

Shootout goals don’t count

Let's not jump to conclusions until the Leafs and Habs play a couple of meaningless preseason games against each other

That's gonna be a no from me dog

The goal is not to be mediocre for as long as possible.

The goal is to win a Stanley cup and these next few years here are their best chances.

Leaf fans need to change their mindset. They aren't some poop team that is desperate for talent anymore.
- Santo_44

That's the thing, we need to be able to keep our RFAs on the roster NOW, not some low percentage pick who might be a player three or four years from now. If that pick turns out to be better than Kap or whatever, oh well, poop happens.

#Oilers final pick. From Google translate:

“Denezhkin make third-good scoring in Norilsk second-group intramural league, playing hardly wing and substitute referee. Denezhkin carry cow water fourteen forevers and break proper virgins in all matches.”

Yeah temper those expectations down a bit.

Exactly.

We don’t even know what this team will look like in 4 years. JT will be 33.

Yeah it’s an easy decision

It's going to be real exciting to see what the Leafs do with the defence over this off season. So many questions. Crazy turnover. Makes me nervous for sure.

And remember when this was 'your year' and you blew your wittle pathetic wad about being Stanley Cup favs?


How'd that work out, oh right same result you choked again and what'd you do? Cry about the officiating of course!!!

Rielly and Andersen will be up in what, three years? It's time to make the donuts.

Sucks to lose that pick sure but fitting AM, JT and MM et al under the cap is one of those good problems to have. Beats losing Seguin and Hamilton type picks and still having (frank) all on the ice.

The poster you are commenting to said the exact opposite about the Leafs.

But he does have a point about prospects...temper your expectations. They rarely turn out well.

Yup, a couple messes made up by Lou were problematic.

Dubas cleaned up the tire fire...now he’s gotta go clean up the spilled milk.

When TOR eventually formalizes contract extensions for RFAs Kasperi Kapanen and Andreas Johnsson, I would expect Kapanen’s AAV on a three-year deal to be $3.2M and Johnsson’s AAV on a four-year deal to be $3.4M.

Those are more than fair deals.

Yes they are...

Signed by dubas, not Lou so terrible. If Hunter signed them they'd be steal of a deal.

B list in your mind is wishful thinking being a Queefs fan. I wouldn't trade Habs prospect pool for yours. The only prospect you have is Bracco. Sandin could be a bottom pairing dman and that other kid that looks like Quasimoto is a bust. Lillybust
- Komisaurus Rex

First off, Caulfield is a steal. He's going to be fun to watch. As for sandin, dude, what he did in the ahl as an 18 yo , he's likely a top 4, and possibly a future top pairing guy. I'm comfortable saying he's the best leafs d prospect not named Reilly since kaberle

Yes they are...
- Fruitcakenipple

Pretty surprised.

Looking at comparables like Mantha and Kase they are better contracts.

Good to see...two guys who want to win.

I’m starting to think Lou wasn’t so good...
