I could see them re-signing Clifford, if they qualify for the playoffs. I don't think Clifford was a 'throw-in' he brings something we don't have..

I'd guess a 2 yr deal for $3.5M

I cant see that. Way too much money for what he brings.

I am sure they could find a tough guy who can skate for minimum wage.

Sample size is not an issue, as long as it supports your narrative.

"Advanced" stats. are never wrong, when they support your narrative. When they belie your narrative, your sample size is too small.

If you call something by a name, it becomes that thing. So when players fire the puck towards the opposing goal from all over the ice, they are driving possession.

Carey Price is once again the best goaltender in the world in 2020.

Who cares that he was average/bad in November/December?

I just don't understand how a player who is generally viewed as being one of the top 5 players in the NHL is underrated.

I get that Roger has an incessant need to make it seem like it's always "The Leafs vs the rest of the world and no one respects us." But saying "Matthews is so underrated" is foolish.

He's easily one of the best players in the NHL and he hasn't even reached his maximum potential yet.

i'll do you one better, outside of Montreal's 2 8-game losing streaks, they have a record of 27-11-3. that's 1/2 of a season at a 114-point pace. at the end of the day, you are exactly what your record says you are.

top 5 player in the league, being paid $11.634M per season (cap wise) sure, under-rated

I think the Isles are in Roger's head. Literally. BIG inferiority complex there. I don't know why. The Isles haven't won anything since 1983.

Habs are 0-3 vs Detroit this season. I agree. You're exactly what your record says you are.

That is crazy for 60. If you told me she was 40, I would believe it.

There are a few 80's then and now video compilations. Some of them look ok, and even still sound OK. Susanna Hoffs was easily the one who aged the best. On the guys side, Chris Isaak aged unbelievably well.

Going to funny when Matthews exercises his no-trade in year 5, and leaves for AZ in the off-season.

I wonder how sympathetic Leafs fans will be then.

On the other hand, it might not sting as much when McDavid comes here 2 years later
