Speaking of Doughty, if LA was willing to retain a large amount of his contract is he somebody worth considering or has he fallen off too much?

You might be able to talk Calgary into a deal for a package centred on Johnny Gaudreau. He's still youngish, signed for over $4 million less against the cap, and almost as good as Marner. Rumours have the flames wanting to make big changes, but I still don't see the Leafs moving Marner.

Is anyone else worried about Pietrangelo possibly signing with the Bruins if Krug walks? Boston might be more willing to break their internal pay structure for a true #1 dman

Of course, but it still needs to be somebody better than the current options

On that note the Leafs will need an upgrade on their third stringer this summer. Can't be an injury away from Kaskisio or Woll playing significant NHL minutes.

League minimum fourth line of Marleau-Thornton-Spezza next year?

Scoring depth would be a huge concern there, especially if Marner or Nylander get hurt. But options are limited. I wonder if the bargain basement options this year are going to be more plentiful than usual with the flat cap. Might be a good idea to try and keep a spot open for somebody that...

How does Malgin's QA go down from his salary this year?

And Doug Ford and John Tory were ok with this going to Toronto? [emoji849]

I agree, I thought that would've made a great logo. It would have been so easy to test it out on a set of third jerseys and see how popular it was. If the fans liked it they could've transitioned it to their primary jerseys and put the classic logo on their thirds before phasing it out...

I've always wondered what a defence of Muzzin-Dermott and Reilly-Holl would look like. Reading that thread just makes me curious to see it more.

All three are pretty questionable as far as I'm concerned, Iginla got punished for being on a weak team, Perry won the way Benn won an Art Ross in a weak year and Sedin did have an 80 something assist season and won the Art Ross if I remember correctly. I don't agree with the Sedin win, it's...

I've heard it said that the earlier a kid starts the more likely they are to be left handed. It has something to do with younger kids preferring their dominant hand at the top and older kids naturally putting it mid stick, and most people are right hand dominant. The study was done to...

Worse than Jose Theodore? I wasn't a fan of the Sedin choice, but I'd argue even the Corey Perry one was worse.

How I feel about modern gaming https://giphy.com/gifs/the-big-bang-theory-sheldon-cooper-xbox-one-f5hqladdkxyQ8 If I knew more about gaming consoles I'd probably also know how to post that image directly lol

I went through a really difficult period in my life a few years ago (I don't post much here but I even vented in one thread a bit at one point) and nothing helped me get through it better than meditation did. Weed is helpful too, especially a high CBD strain, but it was more of a short term...

What's the latest on Dustin Byfuglien? The last I heard the relationship with the Jets was pretty bad and they might be forced to move him once he's healthy. A trade involving Kapanen and Barrie might be a place to start

Am I doing my math right when I say under Keefe the Leafs are on a 117 point pace?

I agree the NDP have moved closer to centre than they used to be. I think that was done partly strategically to try and get more votes and partly because the emergence of the greens forced them to. Provincially the Wynne liberals and the NDP were practically stepping on each other at times. I'm...

That's where the nuances I was talking about come in. A liberal will spend more now in situations that a red Tory wouldn't thinking it's better in the long run for example. Add that to the liberals moving closer to the NDP as I said and it can make them a less than ideal option for a centralist...
