Thread: Toronto Maple Leafs 2020-2021 - Robertson Makes the team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Barilko14</b></div><div>I'm hopeful for the kid, but he's like 5 days away from being eligible for this 2020 draft. He only turns 19 on Sep. 11. If he was in this draft and taken 10th OV hypothetically, how many 5'9 165lb 10th OV players make the NHL out of the draft?

Your Debrincat example. He was 3 months away from turning 20 in Sept 2017 the year that he made the NHL.

When you are talking about 19 yo that 8/9 months makes a pretty big difference, especially when you are talking about players that are not 100% physically mature.

Additionally, until some moves are made, it's not like it will be easy for him to steal someone's job next season. Nylander is on record now preferring LW, Hyman, AJ (he'll be healthy in Sep), Mikheyev, Engvall even Agostino is a LW option as he was the Marlies best player the last few months of the season. No guarantee Robertson would be more effective then any of these guys next season.</div></div>

I guess we'll have to wait and see

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Birtle34</b></div><div>In my opinion should have followed that last comment, I would give it a pretty minimal chance he would play again, and any gm is only going to be offering a pto and nothing more. minnesota might kick the tires, or Florida if buffy gets a taste for deep seas fishing. But any where under the microscope like Toronto zero chance, timing and bad advice got him to this point without getting paid. I’m not sure if it would have been that simple of announcing retirement and still collecting, with suspension and delaying his decision.</div></div>

Only thing is ... no one really knows. Not you or me. Unless you've been fishing with him in Florida or Minni lol

So, there's a small chance thats why I made the team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jah1722</b></div><div>Nah he’ll get a similar deal to Perry this year. If my thinking is correct, he’s eligible for the bonus contract clause. 35+ and missed the certain percentage of games. I’d bet he gets 1-2M with bonus’s based on number of games and playoff success if he goes to a contender.</div></div>

Promise to load management him like Kawhi for a year lol

Lets him get his feet back playing around 50 games then get his money on a 2 year deal the next offseason. He might miss out on around 4M but it gives him a huge opportunity to win the cup. However, in hindsight he could do this on a few other teams.

Knowing Boston, he'd probably end up playing there for free if it was possible lol
