you included Matthews.. How do we win that trade?
- PatC80

You win it because Dubas got fired, Shanahan brought in Chiarelli, and he pitches it as a necessary move to breed success. Then Matthews goes on to win the Hart Trophy for the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Jones and Matthews even out
( and you save 6m in cap space!)

Then

Ceci ( salary dump) and prospect
for
Jenner( perfect 3C or can LW)
Anderson ( gritty top 6 winger)

Is it necessary to move Ceci as a cap dump? Isn't he up after this year?

We lost because Rielly's head was so far up Spezza's backside..
I have proof

what an embarrassment to have a wannabe gm run what should have been a playoff team into the ground.

wait to stick to the shannaloucock plan.

hopefully mlse gets pissed about why they just spent $111M on a non-playoff team and both shanny and dubas are kicked to the curb before they do any more damage.

Good ol Uncle Lou is sleeping with a wry lil grin these nights. Doubt Dubas getting much sleep at all...

Wait.. What?
- PatC80

Jones is a top 5 dman making 5.4m

Matthews is not a top 5 forward who makes 11.634m

I agree with you on Jones.. Maybe they'll take Marner instead of Mattews?

hard pass

I have no idea how they managed to (frank) up a play so bad. That was painful to watch

From Columbus. Yep
- daws44

Columbus, the team that would be getting Matthews would be saying 'no'?

By including Matthews

If you really want to see a spark in Matthews game, trade him to Phoenix. That is really where he wants to be. The better and better the Coyotes get, will only depress him more. Just my thoughts.
- bsw31usa

I agree completely. Get that lazy POS outta here. I was a huge Matthews guy but this year he looks so lazy and disinterested. If you dont wanna play then get out. Im sure we can get a nice haul.

.99PPG under Babschlong's Abuse

.57PPG under Keefe's Queefes

Clearly Auston needs more psychological trauma.

I think both Spezza and Rielly were at fault.

Spezza for that "flamingo dance" move and Rielly for not keeping his head up to see that Nichuskin was right there as well.

Apparently PatC loves matthews...even more than Jones...maybe even more than Jones and Anderson and Jenner.

So, if he wants more than that....Matthews aint going anywhere. On to the next trade proposal...

Keefe isn't being fair to Matthews, how dare he put Matthews-Marner-Nylander together on one line.

Matthews for all 3? Sure, I would do that.. I think Matthews is more valuable than Jones.

That's on spezza.

he's a step slow and mind-(frank)ed cause he can't keep up / the game has passed him by.

a panic play from someone who doesn't belong in the nhl.

The Leafs are back baby! WOO!

Holy (frank) man

I would also think Matthews is choked that they gave the C to Tavares
