Klingberg to the Oilers. Bullet dodged.

They really do love our leftovers, eh?

Major bullet dodged. Klinger's best days are far behind him. Outside of the PP, I don't see where he's useful. Not to mention, the first time the wind blows the wrong way, his hip is going to explode.

Good lord that's a bad fit.

They use Nurse/Ekholm as 2nd PP options. Why not save them for EVS/PK entirely if you can? Meh

Hold up.

The Oilers have a 2nd powerplay unit?

Gotta' live in the now and enjoy it! Wait you don't think he's worth 4.5M?

He's the 88th highest paid D man in the league.

Next year at 4.5 he's locked up for 5 years. Which would put him around the 75th highest paid D man right now.

https://www.spotrac.com/n...n/d/sort/contract_average

Getting him for 4.5 x 5 from ages 31 to 36 seems like a pretty good move by the Leafs to me?

If you want to be angry about a D man not playing to his contract value look no further than #44.

- Cush29


he' current a 4M Dman with Chicago picking up the half of his contract.
I do like what he brings to the Leafs.

Adding Straw puts them in a tough spot in terms of the tax. If they get Sasaki, they probably go on a spending spree anyway. If they don’t, they probably just add a mid level bat.
- Canada Cup

Pretty much.
If they sign sasaki, i feel like they will sign Alonso and santander.
Straw will be traded, his contract is way too much for what he provides.

Klingberg could be -20, a healthy scratch for 40 games straight, have both hips fall out of their sockets with a broken stick and he would still score against the Leafs if he was on the ice. After a Hyman hat-trick.

Leafs Law #1: Former Leafs always kill the Leafs.

Because the Leafs are an organization run by idiots who let superior talent go away too early and too easily.

Even if they only drove the Zamboni.

Yes, Klingberg will definitely haunt the leafs because he is a superior talent who the leafs let go way too early.

If that's how you feel, is it not more logical to (frank) off and cheer for another team than it is to spend every day of your life following an organization you hate? Or is being a proud masochist the thing here?

You know the worst part of living in your head rent free?

The wi-fi sucks.
