<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SharkTank</b></div><div>Larry Lowballing on Liljegren.

20 man roster won't work.

Too much for Tanev.

Gregor and Benoit will be re-signed.

Robertson isn't a checking line player. He likely slots in at 3LW.

Allow me to channel my 80s Duran Duran...

His name is Gio and he skates like he's in quick sand
Just like Morgan Rielly whose shot can't break a goalies glove hand
And when Willy scores, he really shows you all 11.5 mil he can
Oh Gio, Gio skate across to Brad Marchand</div></div>

Liljegren is coming off of a 1.2M deal was injured for most of the season so far. He has not played like a top 4 dman yet. maybe that changes.

20 man roster works, cause thats how the Leafs started the season this year. With 20 men.

Robertson will need to be on the roster due to the tight cap. He will move around, 3rd and 4th line depending on whos playing.

Its funny how much better defensively the Leafs got after Gio came back from his broken finger. Leads the Leafs in blocked shots and penalty killing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logicalicesports</b></div><div>Wow there is a lot to unpack here.

1st) The rangers are going to lock up Gus. Even if he walked he would be looking for way more than league min.
2nd) Samsonov is not going to win you a cup, need to move him and address goaltending.
3rd) 4 guys are making near half of your salary cap.
4th) Bert will be getting a raise next season, I would assume he realizes his value.
5th) A 21 man roster is not going to sustain itself.
6th) Domi will most likely want more term and job security.
7th) You are slightly underpaying your RFAs</div></div>

1) The Rangers could lock him up. thats fine. There are a lot of 1M dmen out there.
2) Samsonov did something no goalie in Toronto has done in 20 years. OUT DUEL a top 5 goalie in the NHL and win a series.
3) 16 teams in the NHL are over the cap of 32 teams. I take the Leafs forwards over ever other NHL team over the salary cap.
4) Bert as a 20 goal 50-60 pt guy will not be expensive on a 5-8 year deal. Lots of comparisons out there. example Hyman, Dadonov, Barbashev
5) this 21 man roster is top 5 in the NHL in wins and points.
6) Domi will sign for less and long term he never wants to play for another team again.
7) NOT at all. I gave everyone a raise. MOST dont even deserve it. But i still gave raises.
