so you think the guy will stay with a team that doesn't want him anymore? the fans'll once they realize he's blocking the team from getting the D help they need will, if they are thinking, turn on him. He'd be a POS blocking trades to every team.

Kadri didn't want to go to Calgary. He went to a great team in Colorado. Point is that he still went. Did he play another game for the Leafs? NO. He left.

Just like Snake would leave. No one wants to stay in a poop situation.

from my understanding, Kadri didnt want to leave at all. Its just he couldnt block the deal with the avs like he could Calgary..or he would have also

in a perfect situation he doesnt get into the series.
but there is maybe 1 or 2 other options...not a dozen or more

- senstroll

Sandin was the only option and its understandable Keefe would want to keep his PK dominant, as it was a big reason the series was close.

I think it's a bit of a cop out to rip on the team so badly, and throw out stats like their lack of playoff wins in the last 15 years...

The team was managed terribly for a long time, and they made a move to address it. They brought in Shanny, and gutted everything...

I prefer to look at the team as 4 years into a rebuild. When they drafted Mathews (They were legit at the bottom of the barrel), I fully expected to not see the playoffs for about 4 or 5 years. They surprised everyone, and took the presidents trophy winners to game 6, and ran into a tough Boston team after that.

The cap situation sucks, but the team isn't as one dimensional as everyone thinks, or at least no more than a team like the Blues? or esp the Jackets.. They need to mature, learn to finish, and to play at a high tempo consistently...

Complain all you want, but look around the league at rebuilding teams.. how many make the playoffs the first year into a rebuild??

they are a win now team. they aren't rebuilding anymore... rebuild is over. NO MORE REBUILD.... lols...

c'mon man. no team rebuilding trades away 1st round picks and signs SNAKE.

so we are back to rebuild of the D group. Keep Reilly, Muzzin and Dermott....?
- Symba007


Those are the three I'd keep. Add in Sandin and Liljegren. I guess Lehtonen, too.

Gotta hope Pietrangelo is blind and didn't watch the Leafs just fail miserably.

WHat is it with you people?

Someone doesn't agree with your bullpoop and you say the person should leave. Maybe you should leave.

I'm thinking of how the team can improve and female genitalias like you are trying to drive people away.

Whats your solution for the team to win? what? Do you propose anything or just throw poop around in here trying to drive people out.?

they signed Tavares in 2018, and traded Marleau almost a year later.

they are not tied together...there is a lot of other moving parts between those 2 things.

they were def in rebuild mode when Tavares came along

Nope, but I will contribute to telling someone when their take is silly.

When you say you shouldn't sign a free superstar C expect to get heat for it. It is a stupid take.

just my opinion, but you throw a lot of reactionary non factual stuff around. mix up time lines, ignore the circumstances and create made up narratives.

which is all annoying..less then 24 hours after losing

Lighten up Frances. That was a pretty gentle response. I’m not sure it was female genitalia-worthy. Is everything ok in your life?

It's handcuffed the team and lead to a series of cap hits for upcoming RFAs that prevent them fixing their D issues.

you might disagree and that's fine, but don't be going on like anyone who doesn't follow the team line is "silly".

if you have a some alternative for what the team should do, then spell it out. maybe you have no proposals to offer? is that it? you just like to criticize?

On this point and this point alone, Santo speaks for all of us. (I assume he just said that something you said was stupid.)
