Apparently he got married this weekend He also has until 5 pm for his representative to file for arbitration with the team, if that is what he wants.

We have too many of these for one lineup: little crafty lefty with a big weakness of being near non-factors without the puck Domi: centre-capable, nasty sauce, stupid brain, only useful after April Robertson: wicked shot, tunnel vision, falls a lot Maccelli: nasty sauce, perimetery tendencies...

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6473348/2025/07/05/maple-leafs-2025-development-camp-easton-cowan/ I like him. He’s observant, and his body is catching up to his processing.

I was going to guess Pettapiece

Stolarz aside, I kind of prefer Treliving’s trade history to his UFA signing history. It’s a pretty terrible UFA crop to be involved in.

These were projections based on back of the napkin (err hockey-reference) averages from the last three seasons. Matthews without Marner will be different, granted. Historically (relatively small sample), it hasn't been a problem for Matthews to score while Marner was out or on a different line.

I think they need more F1s more than anything else south of an expense two-way centre. The skilled scorers can't be effective without the puck, and if the plan is to get pucks deep, force turnovers, and let the skill have better looks through the mess, then I'd like to have more puck getters and...

Might depend on deployment. The last 3 years he was 36G, 29G, 38G at 5v5, 18G, 9G, 12G on PP. He did shoot a blistering 19.0%, so if that goes back down to 13.6% on his average 252 shots, that's about 34G.

+ Healthy Matthews' __ more goals? Last year, Matthews' injury caused a dip to his shooting percentage to 12.6%, which is still a high-end percentage; the previous 69-goal season he was on a heater for 18.7%, which is his highest but technically not an aberration as he hit 18.5% (2020-21) and...

I like the way the camp is being run. Victor Johansson sounds like he has turned a corner with his physical growth.

That’s very fair; I think the team is well positioned to capitalize if something shakes loose, say in November when some teams start to separate themselves from the pack in the wrong direction. The most likely option would be a rather expensive player with a bit of trade control that wants to...

It’s July 3rd and I would’ve been way more upset if Treliving added a lot of free agents, given that the players on the market were collectively both (mostly) expensive and underpowered. Let’s see what other trades materialize (Maccelli, Roy). Rosters are a work in progress until after the...

I think there’s an app for this?

They really want to avoid one specific issue lol

There is almost no reason to talk to Hlacar (7th rd pick) and Parsons (AHL depth), but because they got into a fight, they get some screen time. Everyone else (Cowan, Danford, Koblar) are 'top' picks.

We absolutely would've lost Matthews for 3 wks mid-season if the Leafs signed Boeser (Turkey trip).

It doesn’t even have much to do with Marner; Carolina is not destined for success with the way they play. Regular season cardio merchants. And my anti-Marner stance is like 3+ years old now; I don’t think it’s all that related.
