Thread: Keeping the cup winners together

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bagelbob</b></div><div>without EJ where does MacK’s raise come from? not to mention byram who looks like he’s going to pop in a big way next year</div></div>

I've heard from Avs fans that Girard is bound to be moved in 2023-2024, and that Compher will be moved before the end of this contract or allowed to walk at the end of it. If that combined freed up 9m isn't enough for the extension money for MacKinnon, Newhook, and Byram, then you can very comfortably move one of Burakovsky/Lehkonen/Nichushkin/Paul for the rest.

Thread: To Start The Season

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>I see Ritchie on the topline because Matthews and Marner can cover for him defensively, J.T. is a little to slow and Nylander isn't one of your more reliable guys defensively. Kampf is the shutdown center, Kerfoot has proven he can't play that role</div></div>

Tavares had some of his best years in NYI with power forwards on his wings like Nelson, Lee, and Okposo.

Thread: Somewhat Reasonable

No leaf would want to play with Perry after the Tavares hit. (not that I personally think it was intentional) Other than that this is pretty reasonable.

I'm pretty lost when it comes to expansion drafting logistics, so i won't go after any of your, erm, <em>questionable</em>, picks, but I will say I really do admire the dedication and vision you put into this.

I think if they lost in 4 or 5 to colorado, they <em>could</em> consider making such a move for star forward... but even then there are easier targets oout their like kuzy, monahan, gaudreau, maybe even eichel. but it's fun to think about.

changes need to be made, tampa got swept and lost a bunch of rentals and then went on to win the next year. they were "poorer" than the year before.

Thread: How much cap do we have to play with

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Pretty unrealistic that you can find eight NHL regulars making just 750,000</div></div>

they're just placeholders for cap logistics. You have to have a 23 man roster, and every guys gotta make at least 750k per league min salary. so if you fill up all the open space with placeholders making min, the cap space you get is the true number of cap space you have to upgrade the team.

Thread: Thinking about the Offszn

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>faulkmydzingel</b></div><div>Clearly you haven't watched any games this post season other than maybe the score sheet. Mikheyev, Engvall, Kerfoot, are a big reason for the Leafs success. While I agree Larsson would be much better anywhere else and not in the number 2 d man role, he isn't as much of an upgrade over Holl as you may think. Holl is fine. And for 3 M less I will take him.

Leafs will be counting on having a few veterans taking discounts to play in Toronto next year yet again. Robertson has shown zero reason why he is ready for a top 6 role. I hope he can continue to develop but he is not ready.</div></div>

lmao. I like every guy on the leafs, including Mikheyev, Engvall, and Kerfoot. I watch every game, trading them away on an ACGM is just business. Get off your high horse.

Hyman, Galchenyuk, and Spezza can all climb the lineup and fix that. Malgin and Robertson should as well if they are good as expected.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>I feel like Holl at $2 mil is a better option than Larsson at $5 mil. Larsson is better IMO, but not $3 mil better.

The bottom six doesn't need to score with what we have in the top six. It just needs to have guys who can shutdown other teams' scorers while occasionally finding the back of the net. The personnel reflects that.

My idea would be to let them hit their bumps and let them grow for a year. Jones and Bear have spent enough time in the NHL to at least pass by as a second pair, while Broberg/Bouchard should make a decent sheltered third pair.
