Mike Augello: Leafs tweak camp roster, not feeling any added pressure

Noice

Why doesn't he feel added pressure? He built the team expecting rising salary cap to avoid salary cap issues...

His model got blown up by the China CCP virus.

You are a clown

Excited to have Mikheyev back.

Excited for hockey to be back.

Just excited in general.

from last blog -- I wonder whether starting goalies feel more pressure to not opt out from playoffs..

Flagged for wearing your MAGA hat whilst generally being a (frank)ing female genitalia.

Matt Sekeres: I'm told the Canucks are exploring the possibility of trading Brock Boeser.

What part of what I wrote is incorrect?

1. The guy expected rising salary cap
2. He signed players anticipating a rising salary cap to provide room to resign support players
3. The China CCP virus up ended the revenue stream that would raise the cap

So what are you trying to say?

All right boys... be mindful of those groin pulls and skate skate skate... never thought I’d be excited for wall drills and small area battles ... but here we are...

Doubt Boeser gets moved. Teams probably kicking tires, see if they can pry the guy out of Vancity...

You can toe the line with your trolling and probably get away with it... But you don't get to cry about bans and then drop lines like 'China CCP virus' This isn't the place for your alt right talking points.

Also, not that I've noticed a correlation between Trump supporters and being (frank)ing stupid or anything, but upended is one word.

Dubas already signed his elite players. The core all have deals.

Read the conversation again and come back to me.

- MaximusAurelius

100%... They would engender a lot of frustration and angst if they opted out

What I learned from the last thread:

CLB has better D therefore they can be favoured over the Leafs.



The whole reductive notion that "defense wins Cups" is patently absurd. What wins Cups? A motivated team that is committed to all aspects of the game.

If the Leafs are willing to do all of the little things necessary to shore up their flaws they have a legit shot of being a playoff juggernaut.

I started the conversation referencing Dubas from the blog. You might want to turn it around onto Benning, who did sign players expecting a rising cap. But I'm only interested in discussing the leaf and related topics.

Hard to overstate the importance of team chemistry when these guys are going to be forced to live together for months. Are the Leafs a douche free team? JT will earn his captaincy during these playoffs.

It's silly to think that they're slam dunk losers against a team like Columbus, but their defensive ineptness is a big hill to climb against the Boston's and Tampa's. Those flaws have seemed impossible to shore up with this group.

Full run and gun typically doesn't go to deep...

So all of China's opposition refers to it as the CCP virus, but you prefer to toe the Chinese communist party line? The same people who engage in organ harvesting from innocent political prisoners and others? The same party that engages in ethnic and religious cleansing?

I prefer to not kowtow to the Chinese communist party and their murderous ways, hence it is the China CCP virus. Ask the falun gong and Tibetans about the CCP... Maybe you'll learn something.

for the Leafs, it will be all about the PP producing at a very high pace
