I think the Leafs have a solid 4 years of contention left. The problem of this years team was the Leafs had 2 lines that were among the best in the league. the other two lines were a jumbled mess that gave you basically nothing. The defence was fine (better than most Leafs squad in recent years)...

A Rielly/Dobson swap would look something like this to me: McCabe - Tanev OEL - Carlo Benoit - Dobson If you really want more puck moving from the back end I'd be moving on from Benoit cuz I'm not sure he can do it.

Oh yeah, definitely. I'm currently operating as if Morgan Rielly is not on the Leafs next year.

Cowan for Noah Dobson? I would do that from the Leafs side but I really want to see Cowan in the Leafs lineup for what he might be able to provide at a minimal cap hit.

Yeah. I'd want him around for low-minutes, great PK'er.

Huberdeau was 5th in MVP voting. The contract wasn't terrible, Huberdeau's play after signing the contract was.

If the Leafs were able to have Matthews - Tavares - Bennett as their 3 centers next season, that would be good.

Max Domi arguably the Leafs best forward against the Panthers. Who knew? 🤷‍♂️

I'd bring Hakanpaa back if he wants to continue. $1.5m? No real harm in that.

I think it's either 4 C or 3 LW. Laughton is what he is. He's a good player. A good player to have in the bottom 6. Giving up a 1st for him was the mistake. People can say that's what the cost was, but you don't have to make that trade and why does it seem, every team besides the Leafs seems to...

The Leafs need to move away from fringe players regardless of how much the fans like *some things they bring to the table. They need a solid player at each position. Players that contribute every game that can't be taken out of the lineup barring injury. I think they managed that this year on...

I think trading Rielly and signing Ekblad would be more improbable. Bennett grew up a Leafs fan and spends his offseason in the Toronto area. I think it's at least plausible he'd have interest in signing with Toronto and his Instagram profile lists "Toronto|South Florida". He already has a...

Brad Treliving can concentrate on the draft, I did all the free agency/NHL roster building for him. About $440k left in cap space: https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/rosters/581101

Now check Soto's stats. :D

The Buffalo Sabres should hire Shanahan. Brendan isn't a fit everywhere but that franchise needs direction from the top. He'd be a good fit there.
