This sounds great in theory but why in the world would Ottawa do it? Chychrun by himself is already a major stretch since Ottawa has no reason to trade him (if they did, especially to a divisional rival, it would have to be a big overpay), to think they will throw in Zub is ridiculous. And even if by some miracle they did, it would be an enormous package and Lili would 100% be involved.


I get it... Was just suggesting they call and see what the price looks to be...

Doubt Brodie would get the oddman out treatment over Gio

And as mentioned before why would OTT help a rival lul

Its great in theory but in reality never gonna happen


Again, in theory and Tre should at least ask about them...

And Brodie make 5 mill... Sub and Chychrun make 4.6 and 4... Leafs have 4.6 in cap space with a 20 man...

Fair enough, and don’t get me wrong I’d love it if Ottawa somehow said yes, but im doubtful you’d get them at all and if you did it would be a massive package

The one thing about him is how much is this through playing with Josi.

Like thats been his primary partner. My fear is we get him and being away from Josi his stats tank

But if the price is like a 3rd and a meh prospect sure

Fun random stat

Leafs are 30th in PP drawn (I wonder why league and refs lul)

BUT

Are ranked...2nd in hits per game with only NSH being higher

League is scared to give this team more PP's

I had 3 goalies in fantasy to pick 2 from.
Samsonov, Wedgewood, and Vejmalka.

I didn't sit Sammy. Too much passion. ****
Do you think he'd clear waivers at this point?

Was probably one of the funniest goals scored by Matthews in his time with Toronto

Only other one that comes close is the good goal one

Timmins is a problem and not in a good way

Dont be taking lessons from Brodie on own goalie collisions lul

Also Matthews use the big body and not the stick to guard net


Man we just dont play well vs. Buffalo especially defensively

Random thursday in Buffalo, Buffalo hates LEafs fans taking over the building and always show up - Leafs don't give a ****.
It'd be ****ing prophetic if it hadn't already happened 100 times before

Thats why this team always got a ? hanging over its head unfortunately

To predictable but was hoping they would break the mold and play a nice game for Sammy's sake as points be points even against lottery teams

Anyways either they win via another comeback, somehow get a point, or another one for Buffalo embarrassing us lul

One day the Leafs will find the bully mentality against lottery teams

As we see it vs. contenders at times

Honestly just say Dubas in the building every night to watch em smash a team lul

If the Leafs were to play in a four team league with Sens, Habs and Sabres, Leafs would finish fourth. Seems like those teams think its game seven of the Cup final.

If there was a tournament where every lottery team would face Toronto they would end dead last probs not even win a game in that tournament

If there was a tournament where we faced the 4 best teams rn. Probs would finish second

Thats why Dr. Jekell and Mr. Hyde be the perfect comp lul

Think you meant 2 lul

Goal 2 Timmins bumps into him

Goal 3 = turnover by Marner

Goal 4 is a 5 on 3 getting screened

Only 1 and 5 he should have had. But in general with this lazy ass defense this was almost predictable. Knew we should have played him vs NYR as we left him to dry most of the time

He was getting screened on the 5 on 3

89 skates by blocking his view

Only goal 1 and 5 he should have had

2,3,4 are off poor defensive plays or in goal 4's case a lazy penalty giving Buffalo a 5 on 3 PP

Can someone find the worls best hypnotist to hypnotize the Leafs into thinking every team they play is a contender so we dont see what im not calling Lottery/Play down Syndrome

Will pass it along to MLSE

As no matter whose in net they ****ed. Even Woll would probs get railed with this defensive performance
