What kind?

Crappy melba toast, that is really just a cracker and is tasteless and breaks when you bite it?

Or yummy french toast, which is delightful on a cold day, covered in syrup and fresh berries?

What about Texas toast, lighty buttered, so that when you bite into it the outside is crisp but the inside is nice and fluffy

Or bacon toast, where you take texas toast and fry it in the leftover bacon fat

No hub city announcement today.

They still have to figure out if teams have to pay the signing bonuses on Wednesday. Apparently it’s $300 million league wide.

Marner was meh.
Anderssen gave up 2 really bad goals (1st and 3rd) and wasn't great at 2nd goal either if I remember well. The fact that he made some superb saves in third period didn't matter that much anymore.
And Gardiner and Matthews were really really bad on those 1st 2 goals.
(not to mention the blatent giveaway by Nylander on the 4th).

- MaximusAurelius


Marner was arguably the worst player on the ice from game 4 on.

Kyle Connor makes 7.1, some Winnipeg Analytic folks complain about this one, Ehelrs makes 6 ( this is a steal of a deal) but overall not too many people complain about these deals. Nylander makes exactly what he should.

Kyle Connor is a great player!

I think you need you need to rewatch the games.
You seem to be one of those guys that are jealous of Marner's salary..

Does ottawa trade picks 3 and 5 for 1st overall?

If say leafs get 1st overall I think that would be an enticing offer.

Think that falls to you.

Marner is my favourite Leafs player. Doesn't change the fact that he's over paid and had a bad playoffs.

I wouldn't if I were the Sens. That's way too much to pay.

I would argue better for the Sens than the team that has #1 overall.

The top-10 in this draft is pretty ridiculous. Rossi at "7" put up Marner level numbers. Obviously the sexy pick at 1 is pretty good for marketing, but I'd put up 3 guys picked in the 1st on a pedestal over that. Maybe 3rd + the Isles pick, but nobody could ever justify a 3 and 5 for 1 unless you knew you had Crosby/McDavid and Laf is not there imo (though still great).

May take more.
And no, if the leafs have the 1st overall, dont trade it.

So keep in mind I know absolutely nothing about junior players, so my opinion is based upon math, not evaluation of talent of the 2020 draft:

Unless it's a generational player (and I understand Lafreniere isn't), I'd prefer the #3 and #5.
