Wow, another 10mil+ forward is the answer?
Looking at the lineup above thats probably the worst bottom 6 and goaltending in the league with few prospects on the way. Just not sure getting beyond the first round is done by having a weaker forward corps and goaltending. The leafs have consistently shown that each year theres a different weakness (Depth or defense or goaltending, etc...), yet the roll on with the top heavy cap structure expecting different results.
To think that with Matthews and Nylander (and Brodie and Muzzin) just 2 yrs away from UFA the Leafs haven;t made the 2nd round is give your head a shake moment, and maybe having cheaper and lesser quality 6-13th forwards and goaltending probably isn;t the answer.
