we need holl, hes also looking better than last year. i also think gaudette or anderson gets waived, robertson doesnt start the year with the leafs since hes waiver exempt

Thread: Once Healthy

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>armer918</b></div><div>I agree with you, no reason for the Leafs to pay a team to take Holl when he is the type of player we will look to acquire at the TDL. He is fine as a PK and bottom 6 dman. I believe that he and Gio will be great together this season.
Hope Lily can take that next step and play with Mo and have Brodie/Muzz as a shutdown</div></div>

lily will shine, in his small sample, hes showed hes more offensively gifted than sandin imo, he just needs to get stronger and better defensively and he will be a trusted 2 way dmen for a longgg time

Thread: Just Retire Jake

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MatthewsFan</b></div><div>When heathy is a major factor here, Muzzin has played 53, 53, and 47 games in a Leafs uni. He has never come close to playing 82 games. I love the player but the guy has too many miles on his body. He can't stay healthy</div></div>

53 two years ago was all but 3 games. That is pretty close to a full season. When he was traded to TO he played 80 games that season. Prior to coming here he played over 70 games for several seasons in a row. His first full season in TO both him and Rielly missed significant time. Then he played all but 3 games and then last season had the concussions. To say he's always hurt is a big stretch

Thread: Carter Hart

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>armer918</b></div><div>Only thing I like about MM is he has won two cups and was a big part of it, very similar to what Kuemper did with the AVs. They didn't lose their team the cup! They didn't need to steal the cup for the other team they just needed not to give it to them. Leaf goalies over the last few PO have been just as mentally(weak first goals) and the other teams goalies haven't given up the leaky goals at the wrong time.</div></div>

Murray's main issue is health, if he's healthy he's probably good enough. Hart is basically in a spiral and isnt too far off Raycrofting his career. A goalie upgrade is certainly in the cards for the leafs, but they arnt giving up assets to just get a younger bad goalie

Forum: Armchair-GMSep. 16, 2022 at 7:52 a.m.

Thread: Carter Hart

So the leafs give up a premium to get a guy who isnt even better than Murray? Why on earth would they do that? The Leafs dont need a long term option in net, they need a guy who can help them contend now. Hart is not that guy, Murray probably isnt either but they arnt giving up good assets to let a younger guy stink.

Thread: Lineup that will be Successful

Leafs need an RD upgrade over Holl who can be waived if no trade for him can be made to clear his $2m cap space.

Thread: Predictions- Toronto Maple Leafs

Tough division this year. To me, Tampa and Toronto fight for 1-2 spots. Florida has a chance to crack it but I think they end up at 3. Boston holds a slight edge over Ottawa for 4-5 spots (depends on Boston start with injuries). Buffalo and Detroit could surprise everyone and possibly get into a 5 spot, but most likely fight for 6-7. MTL brings up the rear and continues acquiring young talent.

Clarification - it'll be autographed, but not by Rick. We'll have Doug MacLean sign it, since he drafted the guy.

Thread: My Attempt

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>armer918</b></div><div>I agree with the Kerfoot part, outside of getting Sandin signed the Leaf's can start the season with what we have and move forward with a 20 man roster like we have over the last few seasons.
Only real for that could be forced is sending Holl out for Sandin and that's fine if no team will offer a pick we waive him and a team will claim him as we have witnessed in the past teams love the Leaf wavier guys.
Getting nothing for Holl sucks but better than paying a team to take him like others have suggested it take.</div></div>

I agree with you on Holl. If no team is willing to give up anything for him I say we just waive him and see what happens. The other option is to send him to Ottawa as the "future considerations" from the Murray trade.

Arizona is not going to get that return back for Chychrun. He would be gone if people were willing to pay that price for him. He will likely command a 1st, 2nd and a B+ prospect.

overpaid right now, but could live up to it shortly in the term on the contract,

I dont get why every move on these leafs agms is trading away decent players to open up cap so you can bring in a somebody who is worse than the traded player.

Thread: Mikheyev gone

https://twitter.com/kristen_shilton/status/1443592890416988166?s=20

Could be wrong but IMO he is a lock for the top 6. At least to start the year. IMO opening night will be:
Ritichie Matthews Marner
Mikheyev Tavares Nylander
Bunting Kerfoot Spezza
Simmonds Kampf Kase

Edit:
Curious, what have you seen from Gusev to warrant a contract. I thought he has looked way too slow. Terrible skating stride. He is KHL bound IMO

Thread: ufa today

I know a lot of Coyotes fans hold dearly of Crouse, but I'm high enough on Amirov to do this trade (with a little tweeking; rather have pick(s) than Dermott and Anderson). Don't see fair trades from Leafs fans everyday (not meant as something mean, just my observation from here) so kudos to you OP.
