Cris Carter of Fox Sports1 has been right all along about Kawhi news. He says that an announcement is coming today.

Listening to rumors abounding on TSN 1050 this morning that there is "chatter" in NHL circles that an offer sheet could be coming to Marner and that Montreal may be the one doing it. I am at the point in this where I would rather the Leafs let him go, take the draft picks and the cap space...

If the Leafs sign Ceci and Kerfoot now then it leaves them no flexibility with Marner if a team signs him to an offer sheet. It is in their best interest to get Marner done first. In the meantime, if an agreement has been made that such and such is what someone will be signed for, then hopefully...

I have added in Kapanen. Now at $47.73 million USD or 62.52 CAD and they will still have much more to pay Marner. Matthews - 15,200,00 Tavares - 14,990,000 Nylander - 8,300,000 Kapanen - 3,700,00 Zaitsev - 3,000,000 Andersen - 3,000,000 Kadri - 2,000,000 Brown - 500,000 Sparks - 40,000

And they still (potentially) have to add in Marner's signing bonus.

I suppose everyone is aware that the Leafs have some contract bonus money to pay out on July 1st. But I was really stunned to see how much the total is. These are the bonus checks the Leafs need to write on Monday: Matthews - 15,200,00 Tavares - 14,990,000 Nylander - 8,300,000 Zaitsev -...

I have seen things written to suggest that SportsNet is dropping a lot of other people. All I have heard for sure is Bob and Doug, already mentioned above. Does anyone have anyone else to add to the list? Apparently Rogers media division is losing lots of money...

Leafs trade Marleau, a conditional 1st round in 2020, a 7th in 2020 and take back a 6th from Carolina in 2020. The conditional first in 2020 is top ten protected. If it is a top 10 pick then it becomes their first round in 2021.

If my first listen to Overdrive came during Gerry's percentages I would probably never have listened again, so I am glad that was not the case. O'Neil was away yesterday so it was Hayes and McLennan (Noodles) and they interviewed Nick Nurse and I thought it was great. Bob certainly could do a...

I read somewhere today that Hillel landed with the Islanders.

He would not be the first person to price himself out of the market in radio. He had a long run. Really long. But I can see it not being worth it for the station (for his price tag) or for him (because he will not work for less) anymore.

I made the switch a while ago and will stick with TSN Overdrive regardless. I am not a fan of Tim and Sid, but suggested that they may be the answer for two reasons: 1. They seem to do a lot of goofing around in an attempt to bring in the non-traditional sports radio people. They also seem to...

If he is pushed out, he will no doubt still get paid the money on his big contract. But it highlights what a cold business it can be sometimes. PTS (SportsNet) is taking a kicking in the ratings from Overdrive (TSN). Perhaps SportsNet has an opportunity to do something now to stop the bleeding...

I believe that he can do so starting this Sunday.

Thanks. I really thought he did both - perhaps because he came from basketball. Anyway, much appreciated.

Per James Mirtle: Director of Sports Science and Performance, Jeremy Bettle is leaving MLSE. I presume that he also oversaw Kawhi's load management as well. Maybe he is going to LA. I can see the Clippers bringing him on board.

If Zaitsev is traded away then it makes sense the Leafs need would be to get defense in return. But what kind of deal can they land with another team when their greatest area of need is a right shot defenseman? Maybe the right deal is out there somewhere, but given that the Leafs are already in...
