Babcock's philosophy is to put two skilled players with a grinder.

The grinder's job is to go get the puck and immediately give it to the skilled guys.

Hyman seems to that well, and it seems to be working!

signing Ceci is smoke and mirrors

Its just to leave Marner just enough cap space to keep it reasonable..and then he will flip Ceci as soon as Marner signs

Dubas you sly dog

I would actually buy into this if they had given Ceci a signing bonus.

But they didn't. He's here to stay this year.

Mehh... I think people are being way too hard on Ceci. His stats are pretty much exactly the same as Z's (hits, blocks, TK, GV, PS, etc.) and he has slightly more offensive upside.

I'm intrigued to see what this guy can do playing for a top contender as opposed to an absolute dumpster fire.

Pretty much...and to me Hyman is a grinder who seems to be developing some very decent offensive skills, much to my surprise

Ceci will be ok. After that greedy 26 goal scorer, not 40’ish, signs or does whatever he’s going to do apparently Leafs will sign Ferland.

Depending on the day, I am too. Lol. Can't wait for preseason to see if I have a new guy to hate or a new guy to defend. Oh who am i kidding..i won't watch hockey till game 1 reg season.

Whoa, Nylander traded to the Hawks, unbelievable!

Watch Rosen be a stud playing with Makar...
- Tanooki

I like Rosen. Amazing skater. I think he'll do well in Colorado.

Did your other account get banned or something?

still, if you've followed a player carefully for a game or 5 and counted the hits and giveaways/takeaways to compare it with the official stats... holy poop those stats are laughable!!!

Especially the Islanders counters.

Man I haven't had a beer since Game 7 but I want to drink that to my face.

Right on

Ha ha I read a Leafs article in French and now all the ads on here are in French.

Now they're all Swedish homosexual erotica!

Not really, I'm just trying to make it so by posting that.

Use your reason.... The Hawks will be making a bigger move here.... Perhaps his brother..... Bowman isn't dumb, there is something in the works...... Maybe they flip Nylander in a deal to Toronto for Marner???

Look this has "In 2 years this player will make X and" written all over it....... How can we afford all of our players? ...... Bowman is making a power-move for a player with a long contract and Joker was the one that had to go..... 2-3 years hes making 7-8 million.... Cant keep them all..... Stan is after Marner, I'm absolutely certain about it but he will trade for his rights...
- Savard2Secord

William Nylander or Mitch Marner will be Blackhawks in the fall.....

This trade only makes sense if William is coming to the Hawks or Alex is traded to the Leafs for the RFA rights to Marner....

Tell me if you find something that works.

I think so....That is pretty (frank)ed.
