Thread: Caps playing big ball adding Zegras and Byram
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MW6</b></div><div>It isn’t only about what they’re getting, it’s also getting rid of Samsonov which is the key to upgrade to rest of the roster. I’d offer Nick Jensen instead of Edmundson if the Leafs could fit him under the cap?

Knies-Matthews-Marner
Pacioretty-Tavares-Nylander
Bertuzzi-Domi-Jarnkrok
Kampf-Dowd-Gregor/Mccann/Holmberg

Looks like the team to beat to me. And I hope you haven’t been sleeping on how many games Lindgren has stolen for the Caps this year?</div></div>

Don’t see how getting rid of Samsonov is a major priority; time to see if he can find his ‘A’ game and if not, bury him with Marlies. Lindgren is a good piece but nowhere near worth Minten or a 1st; the other pieces coming Leafs way are meh. Pacioretty coming off extended injuries, Kampf already plays 4C &amp; Edmunsen is 7th dman. Too high a price for Leafs imo

Thread: Marner in the Summer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aadoyle</b></div><div>Doubt he cares, look at Willy his dad was a notiroius negotiator and he passed it to his kids, Marners thing aint much different. None of the big 4 seem bothered much.

Crosby's good but his deals up at the same time and the penguins are probs going into a rebuild very soon.

I dont see the team losing him for nothing and nobody good in FA gonna give him 13-14m (basically equivalent to if he got 12m here)

Basically its Willy all over again only this time when he says I want 12m u give it to him before he gets contract fever has 130 points and goes okay 13m</div></div>

Will be interesting; maybe they are looking to clear the decks for McJesus the year after? I’m in favour of bringing Mitch &amp; JT back (8x$12.5M max + 3 x$5M) but we’ll see - another early playoff exit and all bets are off. Go Leafs go!

Thread: Tank for a chance at Cellebrini no point in trying now
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DealFinder67</b></div><div>Mitch it’s funny that you don’t see how clueless you are. How come no other team has more than 1F making over 10M. No other team has more than 2 players making over 10M. We have “4” and all on forward. Funny thing is that when we lose out in the first or second round again, it will be Marner that gets moved. Might have to change your name to WillysWanker</div></div>

You said you were going to change allegiance and support another team; it’s past time. No one cares what you think (no one cares what I think either but then I don’t constantly spout off about things that have already happened or things that haven’t yet happened), so do everyone a favour and change teams + give it a rest already

Thread: Going up cap
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MediocrityAccetableInToronto</b></div><div>yes 15 games is a sample size of a season. if he's a top 10 goalie by your standards, you haven't watched a full NHL season. If Woll puts up say 2.80 gaa and .905% with first round exits the next two years, I'd think it would be time to move on from him, and go watch Saros play then get back to me when you have.</div></div>

I don’t think he was a top 10 goalie; he was a top 10 goalie statistically - x goals saved per 60. Maybe you can’t see it but it’s beyond weird to trade an excellent young player two years in the future because you anticipate him regressing. Like I said, you should trade Knies &amp; Minten &amp; Cowan because you could use the same insane logic for them
