Maybe not strictly speaking due to the teardown, but they also landed Zach Hyman (signed a two-year deal today) from Florida for McKegg. A primary reason that they got him was because he thinks he is ready to play in the NHL and Florida didn't agree - the Leafs need people to fill spots so they...

Even better. Thanks.

I wonder..... is the 2nd rounder that the Leafs gave up in 2016 their own 2nd rounder or the one they owned from the Pens for Winnick?

I am very happy that he is gone. The return is better than I was expecting as of last Friday, so that is decent. I think Phil will start the season with a bang and perhaps he will do well, but I won't lie, I am counting on him being a streaky scorer who sometimes thrills Pens fans and other...

Kadri is the guy that I think will benefit most from Babcock. I am looking forward to seeing if he takes a step forward in the next year or so or if what we have seen so far is all there is to see.

Some quotes from Mike Babcock today that make me a happy Leafs fan: "The number one characteristic of a Toronto Maple Leaf is a good human being. If you don't fit that, you're not going to be here." "Anything that's been going on is going to get cleaned up. We're going to be a fit, fit team. A...

Getting closer to a pretty exciting time for the Leafs with picks 61, 65 and 68. Go Mark Hunter!

I just called Rogers and used some reward points to add the NHL network so now I am cooking with gas.  ;D

Where can I watch Rounds 2 through 7 online? I do not currently get the NHL Network channel and I am thinking about changing that right now, but if it is available online then that works too. Does anyone know?

The Maple Leafs sent out a communiqu? last week indicating any team wanting to talk trade should go through assistant GM Kyle Dubas. This led to speculation maybe Dubas would be elevated to the full-time GM position, but that appears premature. Director of player personnel Mark Hunter is...

The 7th rounder only comes into play if the Leafs do not sign Hyman. In other words, it won't come into play. They already were granted permission to start speaking to him yesterday and it sounds like he wants to come so.....

?They?re going to get a kid that bleeds blue and white, and understands the tradition of the Maple Leafs and who has always dreamed of being a Maple Leaf,? said Stuart Hyman. ?He?ll be proud to wear that uniform. Star Article

That depends on when and how often you sleep. The traditional number, however, is 7 and I am looking forward to it.  :)

Cox Has Leafs Taking Provorov

p.s. My takeaways from the interview are: 1. The employee who supposedly jumped ship from the city side to the Coyotes side was fired by the city about a month before they began negotiations. His only involvement at all was when they sent him the completed deal (after his termination) and asked...

Fascinating interview that Bob McCowan just had with Anthony leblanc (CEO of the Coyotes). It is worth listening to for anyone interested in this. I learned some things that have not seen or heard anywhere else, and my take-away is that the City of Glendale has a very thin case. Granted, I would...

Oh how I hope....... Teams Reaching Out About Phil

Brett Lawrie's bat split apart and hits a woman in the stands. "It was violent," he said of the impact to her forehead and top of her head. "She bled a lot. A lot. I don?t think I?ve ever seen anything like that." Fan Hit by Bat Has Life Threatening Injuries

Leafs are in the hunt anyway.... I have no info on this guy other than what I can look up. Derek Ryan
