1. Danault: I've wondered if the Kings would look to shop Danault as well. New GM, Byfield's game/role/responsibility is increasing, and they might need to clear cap space for a big swing (Marner). With that said I couldn't possibly imagine the Leafs have the trade assets to make this deal...

Karlsson would be an interesting one to revisit this offseason. Coming off a down year, Knights might want to move him for cheap just to clear cap space. Heck maybe even reunite him with one or both of the original Misfits line with Marchessault and/or Reilly Smith.

To a certain extent I'm sure all teams have stuff like this but yeah it's kind of stunning looking back and thinking about all these little mistakes. Like Mike Amadio gets waived by the Leafs a month into the season in 21/22 where he played just 3 games for the team. Next season he's winning...

Won back to back Cups as an assistant with Tampa and typically ran pretty good penalty kills there.

There's really no reason to think there's an ounce of credibility to that report/story. For what possible reason would the Marner side decide to leak their entire version of events to some podcast that covers minor league hockey in Alberta that nobody has ever heard of before? I've come to...

And obviously it's not like we'd be trading him to Buffalo or something. Mitch would give a list of a handful of teams he's hoping to speak to as a free agent, and a trade would give him the opportunity to do a deeper dive of that teams organization and arena and city that the currently accepted...

Carolina did get a 3rd round draft pick from Tampa for the negotiating rights to Guentzel last year. And that was for only about 24 hours before he would have officially became a UFA. If a team wanted to jump the line and try to blow Marner away with a contract offer I'd take a 3rd rounder (at...

This isn't exactly breaking news but man what a depressing list of prospects. Really hoping one of the NCAA guys brought in like Quillan, Haymes, Webber, or Prokop can eventually break through and be a NHLer.

I'm curious if they'll actually replace Lambert or just expand the roles of the current assistants. Marc Savard could take over handling the forwards along with PP while Mike Van Ryn does the defence and penalty killing. Sacco seems like he'd be a solid candidate if they look to make an...

I would add that if there were a possible scenario where the Leafs could trade Nylander for a big package and then re-sign Marner I would still do that in order to obtain that DNA/cap structure change the team possibly needs. But that would require Nylander to waive his NMC, which is unlikely...

Yeah I think you can criticize Marner and his camp for a lot of things but this definitely isn't one of them.

I mean... how? Nylander's contract expired first. And again for all we know the Leafs made every effort to re-sign Marner and were just rebuked. We'll never know for sure but I suspect if Nylander and Marner's situations were flipped where Marner was already re-signed and Nylander was the one...

Who's saying re-signing Marner wasn't a priority for the Leafs? It was Marner, or at least his representatives, who were rebuffing contract negotiations by all accounts. From the sound of it in a perfect world the Leafs would have been perfectly happy signing him to a deal larger than Nylander's...

I hate to break it to everyone but any hope of McDavid leaving Edmonton went up in smoke when LA couldn't beat them. Thanks Hiller.

Cowan showing up good here (I hope we don't regret taking Danford over SOR one day).

For what it's worth Chris Johnston seems to be disputing the $7mil on a 3-5 year deals coming from The Fourth Period: This feels a lot more likely. I agree that even with the cap rising getting only 3 years with a $7mil AAV would be a little nuts.

I dunno about that. I think for a team that had pretty great goaltending (2nd in the league in 5-on-5 save percentage), over $24mil on your usual top 2 PK forwards, and a pretty solid top D pair in McCabe-Tanev being 17th in the league in PK percentage and 22nd in xGA/60 on the PK is actually...

I'm not sure you would need both hands to count the number of players San Jose would trade Celebrini for straight up.
