Thread: Similar Errors Cost The Leafs - Who To Blame?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>I'll comment on Muzzin. Yeah the contract looks bad. But at the time of signing...believe it was mid February 2020, the NHL had announced that they expected the cap to be 84 to 88 million in 20/21.
Shortly afterwards the Covid lockdowns, and the cap stayed flat.
I've been one to say that the Leafs should have traded Nylander last summer, and his good value contract, and with the cap and get a better balanced lineup.
I even suggested....that maybe Marner should be left exposed in the Seattle expansion draft. Then the Leaf should have 11m to spend better than Marner. But of course you need a good GM and management team, to spend that new found cap wisely, which Dubas, Shanahan and friends probably couldn't do.</div></div>

The fact that you wanted Marner to be exposed in the expansion draft so they could spend that money on depth pieces just shows how bad your takes are.

Credibility out the window.

Thread: Attempting to Rank Every NHL Player 6 months later
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ZachHymanForTheHart</b></div><div>I could probably pick out more if I really, really looked at it and put a lot of thought into it, but I don’t wanna do that lmao
Personally, my RW rankings would go Kucherov and Marner as an interchangeable top 2, and Rantanen as #3.
I also don’t think Robertson would be that high (on LW, obviously) tbh.

Those are all just personal opinions though, of course.

I really admire all the effort put into this. Ranking players can be really hard and it’s crazy you have so many in here. It’s really quite impressive, honestly. It’s good.</div></div>

Thank you and yeah. The top 3 was super hard to rank. Rantanen may have some recency bias with the Avs winning the cup, but they all seem so close to where I would be fine with any order for them.
