Nope haven't been on here in a few months

Edit: would of liked to see the leafs pick up a few depth pieces to play down the stretch and into the playoffs over the kids.

Rielly is back soon apparently.

Ceci back in 3 weeks.

Didn’t expect a Muzzin injury so quick.


Don’t think it would of been worth it.

Teams can still make trades right?
Its just that the players are not eligible for the playoffs?

100% healthy leafs could use an upgrade to their bottom pair. Other contenders have 7 or 8 NHL defenseman leafs have 5. I get that there's a good chance the leafs don't even make the playoffs but they definitely could of used a couple legit NHL dmen in case of injuries.

Edit: I'm not talking about selling the farm for a top pairing D or swapping Barrie for a minor upgrade. Just a few depth pieces. Rosen is whatever but would of been nice to get someone who's cracked an NHL lineup in their lifetime.

the 2020 third rounder for barrie wasn't going to help us

time for some young blood to step up

its our only hope and their big shot.

- Lucas.Neilson

And people were saying barrie could have easily got us a 1st and propect after a couple of those trades on monday

For a 3rd, no you dont move barrie.

Oh boy. Should be fun.
Well if we make the playoffs, some of our D will be fully rested, the rest might be dead.

And trade assets?! The nerve of the GM ensuring he had some depth in case of more injuries! (I'm predicting what people would also be upset if he did such a thing)

Are you so sure about that? I actually think Tampa's D looks putrid.
