Marner makes more than all except the Leafs! 7 years ago and today!

Give JT the money he wants over longer term: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/yanni-gourde-new-contract-tampa-bay-lightning-potential-salary-cap-circumvention

I wish Marner was cast as a playoff special-teams specialist and played on a 5v5 shutdown line, but that's not what a $+12M player is, so we should probably move on. He cannot be counted on late in a series.

Prior to this playoffs, I posted the below, I don't have the spreadsheet anymore: I exported 16/17 to Current, Playoff Points Per Game, Top 100 (at least 20 games played). I then added 23/24 cap hit column. I then divided the cap hit by playoff-point-per-game to get a value score. Sorted by...

Still hate Dennis Eckersley, nothing Roberto couldn't handle, two fingers up!

Finish the job, McDavid, and then shed your McJesus name and become McGod with a Stanley Cup win in Toronto.

He got tons of flak before he signed. Marner isn't signed, so it's his turn. Call me crazy, but I don't think Nylander's D is that bad. I think it's a popular narrative though.

If you ever make it to a game, watching his warmup is my favourite part about going. His skating and hands are unbelievable. The kids adore him for being small and skilled. If he goes, the spectacle will be missed. I want to win, but reallocating Marner's cap hit does not necessarily mean we...

Trev presser on now: https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/watch-live-maple-leafs-gm-brad-treliving-addresses-media/

According to the NHL, hitting goalies in the head is (y)

It looks like there is some value available via UFAs: Kane, Marchand, Toews, C. Brown, J. Benn, R. Smith, and B. Tanev. Although most of the above are older, we need playoff warriors. Marner or no Marner, I believe this is still a good team.

He's good, a snowbird already.

6-1 FLD and Tkachuk, unprovoked, manhandles Aho. Has any team ever beaten a team physically and on the scoreboard like this in history?

His defense was atrocious, always. The grit was non-existent. Sandin/Dermott/Brodie/Reilly/Barrie/Gardiner are all very similar styles. Check out this list of D who played during his time as GM...

Do we know he attempted to trade Marner?

Will not be replacing him via Pelley.

Dubas’ small, fast, skilled hockey was 100% the wrong direction and his contracts were off the charts bad. Then came the only prerequisite to work/play for the Leafs was at some point in your life taking a dump in Sault Ste Marie. What a garbage hire. The pivot never came and here we are. I...

The small, speedy, defenseless team was a horrible concept, especially in the playoffs.

It blows that Shannaplan didn't work, and that the "core" is being dismantled. Hopefully, this isn't a Matthews peak in Toronto.

How come the Jays are not MLSE? Larry?
