I don't love that we still have open ended ties with those two. It seemed like those should be deals that could have been accomplished before free agency. Having question marks around those two makes it harder to know how much money is left kicking around.

Have to close the loop holes for the teams propping up the finances of the league....this exacerbates the advantage of low tax states even further.

Jamie Benn re-signs in Dallas for 1M base salary with bonus structure up to 4M David Kampf as the Leafs 2nd line centre!

Agreed on that, but Peterka also didn't have the luxury of playing beside Marner and Matthews all year.

40 point player signing for 2M...yep state taxes don't matter.

What a terrible deal for Buffalo. Also why the hell can't we get Knies on a deal like that

Maybe it's not popular but I think it's time for the Leafs to play hardball. If Knies won't sign a reasonable deal...trade him. The Leafs need a reset on players getting term, salary and clauses. Obviously I'm not going to take media click bait as truth but the Leads do seem to have a...

2019-2020 18G 42A 60P 70GP 2021-2022 12G 25A 37P 71GP 2022-2023 15G 16A 31P 53GP Two consecutive seasons of point totals in the 30s and then hasn't played professional hockey in 2 years. Comparing that to Patrick Kane who put up 59 points before missing part of the next year to his hip...

He's also not going to go play for a garbage team. Even if he say...goes to San Jose. He goes and plays with Celebrini....Chicago? Bedard...Anheim has players. So wherever he goes, he's going to play with guys who can put the puck in the net. The knock on Marner is not his ability to put up...

The Oilers not upgrading their goaltending again this year will certainly be something.

Edmonton coming off back to back Stanley Cup Finals losses. Next year Draisaitl's 14M extension kicks in so they don't have the 6M in saving they got from him in previous years when he was on that ridiculous 8M contract. Edmonton has 11F, 6D, 2G and 11M in cap space. Evan Bouchard is their...

Any appetite to try and bring Kapanen back in a bottom 6 role?

Back to back home runs for a walk off comeback win in the 9th. Bowden Francis to the IL; Eric Swanson DFA'd Paxton Scultz is back and Justin Bruihl was called up. Scherzer is going to make a second rehab start so his shoulder held up for at least one start

I know that the likelihood that McDavid stays in Edmonton is probably much higher than him leaving but free agency in 2026 right now is way better than this year (I know that a lot of the high end guys will sign extensions this summer and change that a bit). I kind of hope that the Leafs are...

The problem with that argument is you can say the same about most of the core players. If Matthews didn't get 10+ million on his deal. At the end of the day goal scoring trumps assists but Marner's right there with Matthews for production in the regular season and playoffs. They are right...

Florida Panthers Series by Series Tampa - 4 wins; 1 loss - 19 goals for; 12 goals against Toronto - 4 wins; 3 losses - 26 goals for; 17 goals against Carolina - 4 wins; 1 loss - 21 goals for; 10 goals against Edmonton - 4 wins; 2 losses - 23 goals for; 17 goals against That damn 3-1 lead in...

Leafs Panthers was the real Stanley Cup finals

Yeah McMann is a fair one. A lot of the other guys really broke out after leaving the organization though so while I think they deserve some credit in development....Marchment broke out 2 years after he was traded for Malgin. Brazeau didn't play in the NHL until 3 years after he left the Leafs...

Is there a case of a player the Leafs development team has that they can really identify as a success that contributed anything to the Leafs? Knies was a nice pick that the Leafs scouts did a great job with but he came into the NHL ready to contribute. His game has improved but how much of...

Dragging the Cup Finals out like this seems incredibly stupid when the weather keeps getting warmer and the ice quality gets worse. Game 1 was June 4 and if this series goes to 7 games it won't finish until June 20th. Not to mention that both series were done on May 29th so there were 6 days...
