I think Toronto will offer a max contract and not every team would offer that.

yeah, they'll probably have to, as long as they can do it while still being cap compliant...

They'll have roughly $23M clear when he's up, not including his $11M. So $34M, with some guys certainly not coming back and JT up the next year.

I'm sure tne guy replacing Dubas will figure it out.

so this would be Dubas' last year as the leafs GM? makes sense I guess, his shelf life will have basically expired.

He has gambled too much with no results. Not even wise enough to move a key piece or 2 to buy time

I think he's done a lot of good, but seems to have trouble making the proper adjustments to his team... reminiscent of Bergevin, in a way loll

I am worried montreal will reclaim their once best prospect on defense, Victor Mete.
- mr.peanut


Claiming Mete would be like using an old condom you find in a garbage can at the rave…

I would pass on that…

Same for Subban…

Can’t believe people are talking about recycling old scrap like that…
