Skinner off his game tonight.

You've put way too much time and energy in a post that I won't be reading.

Aurora Borya Valis?

I think he wanted out. He's not dumb, he basically pulled a Tortorella.

CJ on his podcast literally said the Marner camp was always going to go to July 1st and that they weren't willing to negotiate in season. This trying to read between the lines is tedious and I take the reporting from CJ at a higher standard than speculation on why certain things were or weren't...

Sounds like GMs are butthurt that they got shown up by the same two teams again and are ready to make some moves. Should be a fun offseason.

The Musk was high on ketamine and accidentally fell out of a window watch is officially on.

I was going to say, if you aren't throwing players name's out in trade to see what you get back then you aren't doing your job, and if you have players that take that as a slight then they really shouldn't be on the team anyway. Can you tell I want to see a Vegas model of personnel management...

Skill never wins out if they play poorly under pressure or are afraid to make mistakes or get bodied. Conn Smythe still has a partial point when he said if you can't beat them in the alley, you can't beat them on the ice. I mean look at what we saw yesterday. Very little perimeter play, both...

If by kicking tires and Vegas saying no because Marner was obviously not willing to negotiate in season, which is not the way you're presenting it, then sure. Close to a deal.

I doubt many have forgotten that. Lou did screw it up, but the way his agent handled the second negotiation the Leafs should've said suck it up buttercup or we're trading you.

It's so entertaining watching and reading the pearl clutching on different levels. At this point I could care less if they completely blew up the team or not. Again, I do think it was insane not to recoup something for one of the big three, but I also just can't believe the number of people who...

It's highly unlikely also because Marner is unlikely to sign here, not just because Willy won't waive, which is just getting to Lloyd Christmas levels of chance. Rielly I see as a far more likely scenario for waiving.

I think this is the most likely scenario. If Mitch's camp signs midseason and doesn't negotiate through the media or leak whatever grievances out, have his camp complain about mistreatment etc. then the perception of Marner would be a lot different. If Nylander did that, then repeatedly was...

Yup, either he chases dollars and a quiet market or he chases winning and makes a compromise on his salary. I also don't know why there has to be a debate about players doing well elsewhere. It's like saying your ex won't get married because she was an awful partner. Yes, with you, but maybe not...

I mean, there's only one player I've repeatedly heard who gets treated unfairly, and it's been brought up by his agent, his camp and teammates ad nauseum. The Leafs were already reportedly offering him $13M+ in the middle of the season. It's baffling that this is still even a debate that Mitch...

Seriously. Just the notion that there would be any discount by the forever butthurt camp is outrageous.

It sounded like Treliving did recognize the need to bring in another puck moving d-man. It's tough when Rielly doesn't excel in either offense or defense and lost a step from last year and is no longer able to QB a PP unit...

Woll didn't give the Leafs the same goaltending this year as last year either so...
