the hill he will die on this season me thinks.

Letting Andersen walk then rolling the dice on Campbell/Mrazek and then Murray seems a bit desperate.

And he’s going to get a career contract based on those two months …….. in Edmonton

To be fair everyone gets a career contract with the Oil …

The Leafs cant afford 2m. Honestly the caps just walked about from paying him like 1.4M. I think you might be able to get him for 1M or so.

that's when they move Holl for a 6 round pick

Andersen wasnt the answer, and as the Canes found out, is injured quite a bit. Im just glad the Leafs moved on to another injured goalie

Thank goodness we protected Holl in the expansion draft. We desparetly need a 6th round pick. Id honestly be surprised if we were able to trade him considering he has a MNTC.

Poll time:

Mrazek and 900k cap space (plus whoever they would have picked at 25 I guess)

Or

Murray at 4.7, 38th (Minten?), 3rd, 7th

How about telescoping on years of being crappy … which I believe we’ve all been doing for pages now…

There is no amount of shine for this turd of a deal. Dubie got taken to the woodshed… I still cannot believe Shanny signed off on this…

The retention is weak, the picks meh… The compensation going the other way who knows…and the money left not enough to improve the team…

- dozerD10



the Leafs have 2 trade where they are getting "future consideration" from the Flyers and Predators.
not happy with the goalie of choice and I hope they get another goalie as I think the Leafs will need it

If it works out, Dubas looks like a genius, if it fails, he may be out of a job.. It's a risky move for him.. As a Leafs fan though, I will still cheer for Matt Murray.. Heck, we've cheered for J.S Aubin and Jonas Gustavsson

No worries …you’re the best…

I think it’s safe to say all Leafers for sure looking for an upside and more than just a little nervous about this

- dozerD10


Oh I'm nervous about it and skeptical. I do think it could cost Dubas his job depending on how it plays out.

However, I rather try to find optimism because being angry or really upset doesn't/won't change anything.

I am hoping that the Leafs go after Samsonov.. I think he's a guy that could be good.

I agree.. At the end of the day, we're all, well, mostly, Leafs fans here, we'll still cheer on Murray and hope the Leafs do well..

Last season, with below average goaltending from Jan 1st on, Leafs were still a top 4 team in the league.. If Murray gives us average goaltending, Leafs should be ok.

I’m a Toronto kid born and raised. I know a thing or two about Leaf fans. Didn’t know this was a ‘do not enter’ area. Toronto sports fans and it’s media are a special bunch.

- BINGO!

Its completely desperate, but this what happens when your hands are tied with 4 forwards using 40m in cap space.
Andy had to walk though.
Mrazek was a huge mistake from the get go.

Didn't Dubas imply that they would have taken Fraser Minten at 25? So, they unloaded Mrazek's contract and still got the guy they wanted

Talbot would still be an option.. and they have a 3rd to offer.

I get cap space is an issue, but there are still other options they can bring in..on top of murray

- senstroll

that would be Ottawa 3rd. cause the 2023 3rd round pick may go to Arizona

Last time Leafs got a healthy goalie who got injured. This time Leafs got an injured goalie who’s going to get, going to get, going to get healthy.

- PatC80

Everyone says "they got their guy" though. I have a hard time believing they would have taken him at 25.

But even so, I think Mrazek and almost a mill of cap space vs. Murray, 3rd, 7th is a tough call. They are very similar goalies imo and cap space is at a premium for this team

Mrazek was a good idea at the time, he had good numbers throughout his career, the plan was to have a good 1A/1B tandem.. It just didn't work out that way.

Yeah. Was talking about this with Yost last night.

It was bold and an understandable gamble to add JT when they did, but it WAS a gamble.
