I tuned in as suggested and...well...sorry all :( ;)

Wonder what the cost would be? He's quite young and had a pretty good season a few years ago. His faceoff % is god-awful though; is there a chance he's not a centre in the long term? If so, then he's not of huge interest imo.

I believe Pelley still uses ICQ *Edit beaten by JOE :ROFLMAO:

I was a little shocked to see the Leafs in on Bobrovsky, partly due to his age but mostly due to his atrocious numbers last year. I didn't; however, realize how injury-riddled the Panthers were for most of last season and (as per Noodles via Overdrive) he started games where there were as many...

:confused:

He's a UFA after this year and, even with a nice rebound season, I don't see Toronto re-signing him anyway. So picking up two 3rd round picks in the top half of the round seems sensible (particularly for an expiring contract).

1st half of first year of a 14year, $500M contract for 27 year old Vlad- 98 OPS+, .724OPS 4HR, 0.8 WAR Thanks man, glad you got your ridiculous contract

How about, instead, the NHL expands into a league that is good

Tanev, I assume? Raddysh, Tanev and then Villenueve, Danford/ Marlie fare for the 6RD spot?

So Buffalo somehow was offered the 4OA pick for Byram, and still negotiated to get the 45OA pick AND dump Greenway on top of that? I mean...both players are UFA after this year...Over $10M total in Cap space... Surely Chicago easily could have snagged Buffalo's 20OA? It doesn't make SENSE Basil!

Didn't fare well....and Vladdy goes 1-6, no extra base hits, no RBI and 5 runners left on base. Wow, he is just flat out garbage now.

I was going for a phallic reference...is there a coach named Wang anywhere?

So basically what you're saying is the next coach that will succeed Babcock is L.A assistant coach, Derik JOHNSON ?

Yea, I can't argue that any of them aren't good players (y)

I hated Keith Tkachuk when he played. Just a miserable, whining, poor sport suck. And, kudos to him I guess, he managed to create 2 of NHL's biggest cheap shot, sucks to follow in his legacy. It's a shame Florida has such regulated birth control laws...

Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I seem to recall that when Minten was a Leaf, the scouting reports/writeups etc. were all somewhat tepid- like he was seen as a smart, strong player but with limited upside and predicted to be a bottom-six centre. And Carlo was a 28-year old, potential top-4 RHD...

I think this is also being overlooked- Since 2019, in the playoffs Carolina was 1-8 against Florida, 1-8 against Boston and 1-4 against Tampa. All these teams we have, comparably, fared quite a bit better against, yet ultimately succumbed to. Makes me wonder how far Toronto might have gone had...

Really sad to see Tortorella denied a 2nd Cup....:sneaky:

This Marner thing started up again because Bill Berg's post joking about the absurdity of the media was mis-construed as being anti-Marner. I'm not sure why people are so sensitive about him, on either "side" of the argument.

Ignoring the fact that his AVG was about .230 in May and currently under .200 in June, I'm not sure that's the answer. Right now he's a barely average fielding first baseman with single digit power and awful running who can only hit singles. And for the cherry on top, he's making $36 million
