Still...


It really means Jack. Its all up to the coach not the GM

Keefe has played Robertson for 41 games. Only reason he was removed was waiver exemption.

If Knies is out for a while Robertson probs getting called back to be the fill in. As Keefe was actually praising him a bunch before the send down

Only if Brad gets the deal of a lifetime or a nice return would he probs move Robertson. But rn with the injury im not sure hes going anywhere

Brad wants guys who get into the scrums... Robertson doesn't do that and Brad's already traded for Toffoli before, wouldn't be surprised if he goes after him

But neither does Willy, Marner, and Matthews and yet he extended him. Thats the thing though u dont need everyone to get into scrums you got certain guys for that with others coming in but not being the main guys

For Willy its let Domi and Bertuzzi do the deed

Like of all the big 5 the guy who had the ballz to do something was MO. Sure 5 game suspension but still


And Toffoli dont really scrum much either. Would love him to come but hes gonna be to expensive for a rental considering hes got 26 goals

Given that the Leafs lost both games to Boston in regulation, the Leafs are in no man's land between Boston/Florida and Tampa/Detroit.
The 2 vs 3 seed in the Atlantic is going to be a bloodbath, and the Leafs are 8 points behind Boston/Florida and Tampa/Detroit
The annoying thing is that whoever does better between Boston and Florida gets to escape that first round matchup and play a wild card team
However, whoever does better between Tampa and Detroit also gets to avoid that first round matchup, and probably escape the Atlantic entirely
An 8 point gap is difficult to make up without a massive streak (winning or losing) especially with less than 20 games remaining

-If NHL Playoffs held today (based on Win% and diff in win % of opponent in brackets):
FLA - DET (.122)
BOS - TOR (.050)
NYR - NYI (.107)
CAR - PHI (.067)

-If 1 vs. 8 in Conf.
FLA - NYI (.138)
BOS - PHI (.107)
NYR - DET (.096)
CAR - TOR (.010)

Current format: Benefits CAR (0.057% easier team) + PHI (0.040% easier team), Hurts BOS (0.057% harder team) + TOR (0.040% harder team).

Hoping that the Leafs trade for Girgensons for cheap, would definitely be a huge help on the PK.

That being said, if he and E. Johnson are packaged together and thats our only move, I will cry

Also not sure how to fit him in, but Bjugstad would be an excellent addition as well

Girgenson is a LW and wont work here. We need a RW

As its basically Holmberg-Kampf-?

Idk the target's hes eyeing should be fairly cheap as bottom 6 PKers should not cost a tonne. It just all comes down to whose available on top of Knies news

Like if WSH still asking a 1st for Dowd **** no run

Go try and get like Lazar for a 4th or something

MTL did exactly as I outlined with Allen instead of Jones... Meaning the return could have been better for Jones...

F**K

Allen had term and does have the better track record

In general with injuries and sickness running rampant Jones actually is needed insurance rn

To NJ they dont care.

They have the cap and wanted someone with term. Jones is just a guy u go get to be your #3. Only team I saw who could have had some interest was PHI but they seem feel they got their guys
