A little much
But 24 goals on a garbage sens team.

The biggest problem is that JGP was getting about 20 minutes / game in Ottawa. I doubt he gets that same opportunity on the Isles. They have better options ahead of him on the depth chart . . . I'd be surprised if he can repeat that same type of performance playing deeper in the line-up on a more defensively responsible team that will afford him even fewer opportunities.

Your post implies we currently have a D structure.

big time overpay, first line minutes, 6 points more than Connor Brown, next we see Nucks extend Josh Leivo for $4.5 Milliion x 8

Glad its them and not us.
Perfect signing for the Isles

If Lou gets rid of Ladd, it’s not the worst deal ever made.

how the heck am I supposed to get back there - without the flux ...

its a catch-22... wrapped in a conundrum trapped in a time warp

kinda like a day in the life of being a Leaf fan (for now)

IDGAF about pageau or the Sens but every time I read something it just makes me think please someone want to extend Barrie at a stupid number and overpay for him.

a 3rd (i think he is worth more), could at least be used at a later date to help get a D they really need

. I'm to the point of frustration that if Duba's does (frank) all to improve this team today. I'm gonna go full Max on the fire Dubas band wagon.....

not bad at all given that Lou has the 'retirement escape clause' with Parise.

getting rid of a 5M+ CAP hit for Ladd makes the delta very acceptable.



Leafs should help the Canes out - they are trying to land Brady Skeji.... take a pick and Edmundson from Carolina for Marincin

frees up a contract for the Leafs, Leafs can eat Edmundson CAP easily for the remainder of this season.
