Oh Man, flashbacks of Frattin losing that breakaway to make it 5-1, just to see the Bruins cameback...

Going into fetal position for a while...

Fundamentally, the Leafs are pursuing flexibility and optionality to tap into latent upside and maximize key performance indicators

Suck it Simmons!

I am impressed so far.

We already lost that game when it was 4-2 Leafs.

Maybe Rielly?

That's the heavy rumour BUT so far the media has missed on everything until it's actually happened. In Chayka's presser today he mentioned they value being able to keep information internal and it gives them an advantage while doing their job. So that said, who knows if Rielly will actually get moved, could be all speculation by the media for all we know.

I actually think he’s a better fit now that he isn’t THE offensive guy and there’s a few other options for the opposition to key in on.

So you’re saying I don’t need to take down my signed and framed Rielly jersey just yet ?

Great acquisition but the guy needs to work on his spelling

could of / could have
loose / lose

"So much for teams not wanting to trade with John Chayka, or Toronto no longer being a destination of interest." — Petrielli / MLHS

It's been a bad week for the "insiders" and pundits.

The 8 years gives me pause but overall like the trade.

I still can't believe Simmons said that with Chayka and his family sitting right in front of him. I mean I believe it, and yet I don't believe it.

That guy is a first class, certified idiot.

Within the tapering rules that seems like a very buryable/tradeable/Robidasable contract at the end

That's more than I would've hoped in terms of no move protection. Bleh.

You know that Chayka is now definitely not in a position of power for moving Rielly. A good GM would have been looking for the next Raddysh instead of buying high on this guy. Seems like we are going back to the old regime of offering no-move long term contracts that absolutely wont age well. Did Carolina not teach us a lesson that wise spending is key for building a cup contender? It would almost be refreshing if ownership treated this franchise like more of a small market team where you were a little more frugal and saved some cap space while waiting to spend only when you truly knew you were close. Canes end up winning cup 13 million under cap.
