Im not certain, but pretty sure Kypreos is the original disseminator of this news (aka this is a completely false rumor)


Idk if it was him as if he was the originator he would be trending

I think its from one of those leak twitter accounts that gets things right but is also not a pinch of salt view due to not being viewed as a credible source.

I know the Boone Jenner rumors are fake and all, but I swear to god if the Leafs go out and trade for another 30 year old forward at the TDL I am going to be livid

Why?

Jenner would be a solid addition to this team especially as their 3c. Some of his numbers be odd but remember hes in CBJ and they are a bottom feeder

Put him behind Matthews and Tavares and he should thrive.

Also brings a physical shotblocking presence to the bottom 6 on a nice deal with term.


Like there are not gonna be many if any good young 3C's available this TDL

Jenner would be a welcomed addition should we face FLA or BOS this playoffs

If Nick Robertson is being moved I’d seriously consider Dante Fabbro.

The one issue I have with him is what is he away from Josi.

As having that guy as a partner can help influence the numbers in a positive manner and my fear is we give Robertson and a 3rd for him and the numbers tank

My point isn't specific to Jenner (who I think would be a great add at 3C), I'm just commenting on the larger point at hand here. I honestly can't recall a Leafs trade in recent times where they've gotten someone decently young in return. In fact, many of our recent trades have done the opposite (ie moving Barabanov, Engvall, Sandin)

You are not going to get the perfect player but I definitely love his ability to move the puck.

It would be nice to see him paired with a more traditional stay at home D (McCabe)

I want this more then anything

Knies - Matthews - Marner
Bertuzzi - Tavares - Nylander
Gourde - Domi - Järnkrok
McMann - Kämpf - Dellandrea

Reilly - Liljegren
McCabe - Fabbro
Gio - Brodie

Get SEA to retain 40%, I don’t see them making the playoffs so probably closer to the TDL

If the price aint high I dont mind. Cause yea we got FLA or BOS to deal with so were gonna need to choose carefully

Like if they can go get Jenner + Fabbro in 2 seperate deals whereby 3RD + Timmins go to NSH for Fabbro and Robertson + idk what goes to CBJ for Jenner would be happy

Knies-Matthews-Marner
Bertuzzi-JT-Nylander
Domi-Jenner-Jarnkrok
Holmberg-Kampf-McMann

Rielly-Brodie
McCabe-Fabbro
Gio-Liligren

Dellandrea would be such a great addition. I love this kind of philosophy. Small changes that'll help in the long term. Fingers crossed this is the approach the Leafs decide to use

The one deal I wanted to try to get out of SEA was Larsson and Wennberg (50% ret)

Larsson feels like the perfect Dman for TOR and has a year left on a reasonable 4m cap hit, Wennberg could be a nice 3c candidate beyond this year and he and Willy lit it up at a WC. Think Landeskog was the LW.

But yea not to bad

4th liners I have been eyeing via TDL to

Harvey-Pinard, Lunderstrom, Texier

I don’t think he would cost much as they are loaded with prospects and Sam Steel took his role

The one thing though is DAL might want to use him to get a Dman as I get a feeling he may be a piece in a Hanafin trade

Not the best Dzone coverage there

What a **** clearing attempt by Gio

Our PK has been not good tonight Gio-Brodie should not be main PK dman duo as man they just be off their games rn

Isles 2/3 on PP and another 3-1 lead gone

Let our foot off the gas after Matthews made it 3-1 and let isles back in

Think Toronto has played like 3 maybe 4 mins of hockey so far. And has been playing panic hockey the remaining time

Isles are just pounding them

We had a 3-1 lead let our foot off the gas and its gone

Defense has been an issue either through missed assignments or just **** plays all around

Keefe got to stay true to your words Gio's a HS next game.

Honestly Leafs are lucky to even get a point

They played like **** for 57 mins of this game.

A 3 min stretch of good hockey was all I saw

Nylander, Brodie, Domi, Liligren, Giordano awful

Heck Jones dont get off free either as those giveaways in the third were awful


Guess whatever magic they had in Cali is gone

I didn't watch the 1rst and 2nd... But of course the Leafs run the Islanders out of the building in the 3rd only to give up a questionable icing call that lead to the OT winner

1 PP is brutal BTW

Im not giving this team any excuses

Toronto for the majority of this game were brutal was a miracle they even had a lead

3 mins of good hockey in the second then got pounded


If Gio aint a healthy scratch on Saturday then Keefe's words mean nothing anymore. As Kampf got HS for the same giveaway

Isles dont take many penalties we cant rely on em to win all the time. Besides its the least of my concern. Allowing 2 pp goals on 3 attempts is unaccebtable

Again, didn't watch 1rst or 2nd but they were all over Isles in 3rd... 3 totals shots is pretty impressive

Can you show me the clip for Gio
