I know someone mentioned it earlier in the thread about Statsny. He's going to get a deal with someone for cheap. I don't know if it'll be the leafs but man it wouldn't be the worst idea.

Yeah based on the article, it seems that way. He'd be a good fit for the Leafs, and can move up the lineup if needed. Could even shift Kamph down if we wanted to 4th line C. Could play wing of centre.

Stastny has been good on the PP as well.

Clearly, if he wants to stay that’s the end of the discussion. And yes he was good in the playoffs but he was bad to start the year. I just think the combo of the downward trajectory, $ and crowding out Sandin makes it worth something Dubas needs to explore

As a gm, Dubas has to always explore multiple options continually.
Im sure its been looked at.

I think so. I think the article is essentially him saying he isn't going to the jets and wants to win. At age 36 that usually means they will take a cheap deal. He likes being in Canada because he likes being in Winnipeg so maybe?

“I’m getting older in my career, so I don’t really have that much time left. So, really for us, it’s that I just want to win,” Stastny told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun in The Athletic. “It’s finding a good opportunity where you know you can help the team and you’re a good fit. Obviously, it’s always hard thinking like that because there’s so many good teams you just never know what happens throughout the year.
“But who is coaching the team and the style they play; I’ve been around long enough and understand the game now as far as what different coaches bring and which ones bring the best out of you. And which ones can help the team as well.’’

Sounds like its about team fit and coach as well.

If the Leafs get a top 6 Winger does he fit on that 3rd line? I dont know. Doubtful he signs on a team where he is playing 4th line.

Edmonton has 8 forwards, 7 dmen, 1 goalie signed next season with 7 million in cap space. Yikes!

Leafs should be going hard after Malkin, Letang and Bergeron.

Show them where their offices would be in MLSE executive row for their $5M jobs when they retire

45pts in 71 games this season.
Not bad.
Maybe a cheap 2nd line option as he could play wing or center if need be.

Yeah we will see where he ends up July 13th. Sucks waiting an extra 2 weeks for free agency. Any word on the season starting like normal?

Kenny Holland doing Kenny Holland things! lol

Duncan Keith, Nurse, Hyman and Smith deals are all ones that may stink in the very near future. If he can resign Kane god knows how much he will give him! I'd be terrified if I was an Oilers fan.....

I love it when a team gets an ultra elite player for a few mill under market value

Big time....except old Kenny Holland gave him 2 years at 2.2 M per so they have him for another year.

https://www.spotrac.com/n...t%20of%20%242%2C200%2C000.

Unless they can trade him........Mrazek for Smith straight up? To me that's just the Leafs banking on Smith getting LTIR'd and gaining his cap space. lol

- Cush29

they will go with Campbell and Smith the Oil will
cause Holland will give Campbell his 5M over 3 year contract

That was some guy speculating that since they have a bunch of injuries, and since he’s in the last year of his contract they should ……. fire the coach …… or something
