We already writing off Rossi when the guy lost a year of development when he nearly died?

I’d wait a few more years before this becomes a thing.

Just like all the Sabres fans with egg on their face saying we lost the ROR trade

I just heard he's behind Rosen and Savoie. He needs to fill out more. 🤦‍♂️

I take juniors kids with a grain of salt. They tend to get away with a lot of stuff that will never happen in the league.

100% agree lots of kids and people who want to see good hockey.

“just checking on something…

rasmus sandin in 18 games where he played over 19 minutes (including two in washington)

3 goals, 10 assists
+2 penalty differential
61% xG
+11 at 5on5

game score: 1.59

🤔🤷‍♂️”

Leafs traded a legitimate top 4 d-man and replaced him with Luke Schenn because of toughness.

What a shame

It’s great that he’s scored a few goals this year, he’s also killing us defensively and is the sole culprit for many more goals against us.
- Swedish_Jesus


Absolutely agree,

But you were saying something about olofsson not playing up to his contract.

They signed him to score goals, not for his defensive prowess.

I'd say he's scoring goals, based on his 20+ goals this season

Ram seinfart 21 goals 6+ million
Olofsson 23 goals under 5 million.

Perspective pegs

*I cant defend olo, -8 in the last 5 games o points

** reinfart -5 in the last 5 games 0 points.

Did you notice that the Oilers fans weren't a bunch of a-holes like the leafs fans.

Sure they cheered for their team and guy, but it felt way different.

Lots of kids too. Families saying " you need to see the greatest player on earth " (mostly Canadian)

For every one of these instances to prove your point there is another one that disproves it. Just stop.

I’ll be the first to admit I wanted Rossi over Quinn.

Quinn seemed like he had a solid floor as a middle 6 player but I questioned the ceiling.

Kudos to Adams though for going against the grain, because that ceiling could very well be Mark Stone as another poster mentioned in passing.

What he did last year in the AHL and so far this year is pretty incredible.

You’re right, why argue with middle aged Americans still stuck in 1979 when I can have informed hockey discussions with people who actually know what they are talking about.

That's his whole (frank)ing game.

If the puck isn't on his blade, you get this video.

its a good thing he did because you know olo would (frank)ing miss.

when he's in, it's either 0 or 60 with him. there is no middle ground.

The Leafs have been mishandling Sandin for years, but nonetheless, you’re right I’ll let the trade pan out but it’s clear this is a good d-man for several seasons now

I'd bet that pass was intended for him and he would've scored there too.

Your 2nd point is spot on though
