Thread: Be aggressive
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>UFA movement in the nhl is rare and requires exceptional circumstances. There is no reason to believe it will happen to Matthews outside of hate, stupidity, or wishful thinking. None of the required circumstances are present at all. The chance that he leaves literally isn't worth worrying about because the Leafs are such overwhelming favourites to keep him.

And the leafs don't really have holes. The d core is mostly set subject to some tweaking that won't cost much $$ wise. As I told you awhile ago Lily is HERE and is cheap. I shouldnt need to mention Sandin at this point either. The forward core is just minor stuff with RFAs and a host of NHL ready guys who are being held down due to our immense depth. Goaltending is really the only part that needs work and we have plenty of money to do it with. Everyone always overestimated the difficulty it will be for Toronto to do everything and they keep having it proven wrong every time. Remember Ritchie? That was a month ago lmao. We got positive (or more accurately neutral) value out of him.

I'm sorry Palhal but you do not seem in the slightest bit to be able to accurately assess the state of the Maple Leafs.
Hell maybe they do move willy. There were (very) minor rumours that haven't been substantiated about it, but we have no need to for cap purposes.

The leafs are fine and it's time people realised it. Most of the league is in considerably worse shape cap wise or have more/more significant holes to fill.
Or both.</div></div>

I'm sorry bud, you do seem in the slightest bit to be able to accurately the state of the Maple Leafs next summer.

Cap rises 1m. Reilly is getting a 2.5m raise, Sandin and Liljegren get raises. RFA Engvall gets a raise . Since you think UFA is rare movement , a suppose Mikheyev and Lybushin is gets a raise too and remain Leafs
Campbell at his current 1.6 gets a raise since you don't think UFAs don't move to the other teams....(or at least his replacement will)

Yeah, I don't understand your math.

Thread: Provorov Blackwood
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Racki</b></div><div>Berniers would just ride LTIR, he and the 3rd are to equal out for Cal's 5M cap hit. You're not a fan of Cal or Blackwood moving forward?</div></div>
Goalies are so hard to predict. Peterson 27 hasn’t established him self as a #1 yet. Maybe blackwood on the right team may have higher upside. But the kings trading for Blackwood may take them a step back because he hasn’t proven much. Cal is better at this point IMO and that’s not saying much. Lol

Binnington fell off the map. Matt Murray fell of the map. It’s just so hard to get a read on goalies.

Like I said if the kings think they can “unlock” blackwood to be a good number 1 then maybe make the trade but it’s not happening I think kings brass still believe in Cal. If Cal can’t prove it by next year they seriously need to come up with something quick.
