Thread: offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>Idk if Stamkos likes the taxes in Toronto. If he doesn't sign in TB, l wouldn't be surprised he signs in Florida.</div></div>

Stamkos almost came to TOR when he was a FA last time but they scared him with that big corporate meeting

10 or 10.5m x 7 years was the offer I believe

He might come but TOR would be dumb to be investing that kind of money in another forward

They need to improve their defense

Thread: Leafs get Montour v2

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>What makes you think he worth that much? He had one good season that doubled his 2nd best in point production. He has fallen back to his regular production this season after a late start do to injury.

I don't think he is worth it, but I also think that if he going to get 7 million at Toronto he might rather take like 5-6 at Florida. He is either going to be overpaid or get bargain AAV at Florida because no income tax and the beach.

That’s one option or do away with the ridiculous hard cap. Florida fan base is 1/10 to 1/20 of the Leafs fanbase. Team cap should be (partially) tied to revenue generated. Just obscene and perverse that Florida / Tampa enjoy the benefits of revenue generated by bigger teams like Leafs, Rangers, Habs (revenue sharing, tv deal) and are also able to acquire more high end players b/c of local tax breaks. But this is Bettman’s NHl

Thread: Is this a cup contender

Dude - ask a ridiculous question…25-50% of fans on here are Leaf fans and the rest have a hate on for everything Leaf related - hard to get objective answer on this site 😂. But we are a cup contender and will be as long as Matthews, Marner & Willy are in their prime. But this roster isn’t close to what it will be in 2 years

Thread: Is this a cup contender

All of those RFA signings are underpaid for 25/26.
No thanks to that much term for Tavares, Domi, McCabe, Chychrun. Domi signs for more.
No thanks to DeSmith.
No Cowan or Minten? Or maybe Niemela and Hildeby.

That's the least of the problems. Minten, Cowan and Kokkenen shouldn't be on the team. Never mind Matt Murray. Kemph isn't on LTIR. A 20 man roster?

Thread: Marner trade

Too many non value long term contracts. Why does Marner waive in his last contract year to play without a centre?

I don't understand why CHI fans keep complaining about adding players, you need bodies , hello , it is a very low risk trade if he does not perform the pick lowers , seriously get over yourselves .
Just as you say we TML fans are unrealistic about our team so are you guys!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>I'm confused, so Andersson and a 6th for Marner, JT, Jarnkrok and a 5th?</div></div>

Huberdeau and his contract is so bad.....for seven full years. Kadri will be 34 in October and has five full seasons. Negative contracts
I'd take Andersson and 20m in cap for Marner, JT, and Jarnkrok. But c'mon don't you think it was a ridiculous proposal in the first place?

I don't think the Leafs can afford Samsonov next season. IMO some team is going to offer him kinda of a one year "show me" contract....at about 3m, and he's going to be great value.
Devils shouldn't giving up assets for Markstrom, but should sign Samsonov.

Thread: Is it possible to sign Roy and Pesce

The bigger question is should the Leafs be signing long term players in their thirties (think Brodie and Tavares).
Pesce isn't that special at anywhere near 6.5m as proposed.

I think this would be the worst Leafs team since Matthews entered the league. Overpaying Bush, Edmundson and Tatar should not be on this team.
We have money to spend in a smart way. Why would we do any of this?

Thread: parade feels like a pipe dream

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>Hildeby is coming up after 24-25 season so why would they sign Sammy to any term? McCabe and Benoit play bigger than they are but don't standup to Florida big wingers. Pesce isn't the d-man the leafs need and Rielly, Lilly and Nielema are non-physical undersized d-men. 24-25 is going to be a wash. This team has big decisions when JT and Marner come off the books. They will realize that Nylander signing might have been a very bad decision. Losing Marner will be huge if the cap hasn't jump to at least 93M.</div></div>

Would have been interesting if the Leaf had been "sellers" instead of "buyers" this season. Instead of trading futures away, traded Nylander, Bertuzzi, Domi, Samsonov, for futures. Leafs would have recaptured their draft picks Dubas had foolishly traded away, and had an additional 11.5m to replace Nylander this summer.

I definitely agree, but that's exactly the kind of element Dewar brings without being terrible defensively. Dewar does everything Gregor does but better IMO, he's a sneakily good addition to this roster. Super excited to see him play.

Holmbergs style is exactly what I want to see come playoff time. He's a fantastic player
