Burkie's infamous found money

Macwilliam is the Canadian Korbinian Holzer

I have no doubt that Marner could be and probably will be better offensively than Domi...he also has the body of a 12 year old, which may not be ready to be smoked by NHL defenseman.  Another year in junior may just buy him some time to grow physically

getting sent back to junior twice seemed to work for Max Domi

Are we talking about the same Duchene that went to the Olympics on a stacked team Canada?  I think he's a LITTLE bit better than Nazem Kadri.  On this team Duchene would be the best forward by a country mile

you could argue the leafs would be a worse team with Kessel on it.  they were worst team I have EVER seen in the last 30 games last year

This is the year we see the real Bozak....and it ain't gonna be pretty.  No coattails to ride on.  Modern day Steve Rucchin...except worse

my goodness! talk about the cynic...I don't he's losing sleep about not earning your respect. I couldn't disagree more.I think 10M (after tax)dollars is a far greater gesture than just showboating.  if he wanted to just show off he didn't have to make such a substantial donation. In the end he...

You're right.  Phil Kessel is grit, heart and tough play personified...that's why the team enjoyed such success with him

Phil is a better scorer no doubt, but scoring aside....Voracek plays with heart.  He hustles, hits, fights on occasion, plays defense.  He doesn't float and pout the way Phil does.  Phil can score I'll give him that, but he is the definition of a one dimensional hockey player I would take him...

Voracek is a better hockey player than Phil

The oilers tried throwing money at free agents for years....they got shot down time and time again.  Even when they did land an overpaid free agent, the team somehow got even worse...

I think with Phil, Bozak and to a lesse extent Phanuef.  Its addition by subtraction.  removing the rotten core of this team makes them better...even if the return isnt the greatest.  It was obvious that the leafs weren't going into this season with at least 2 of these guys.  If and when...

Hopefully Biggs doesnt turn the corner and become the next Lucic

What would be a discount for a guy who scored 5 goals in 53 games?

Bozak is basically Sam Gagner...with more term (not a good thing) slightly better offensively and probably one of the worst defensive players I've seen last year. Gagner was traded for along with picks for a dead contract (Pronger) and a player that the Flyers would have given away for free...

"The market for Tyler Bozak, Kessel?s centre of choice, was non-existent. The Leafs did not receive a single phone call inquiring about Bozak?s availability."-Steve Simmons Not a single inquiry?  Yikes.  Does not bode well...hopefully that changes. 

He's a pretty solid bet for around 30 goals.  I think that's pretty decent.  Especially at 4.5.  Phaneuf meanwhile scored fewer goals than roman polak...

Only difference is that JVR got better....don't think that's the case with Phanny.  What you see is what you get...
