Tre must like their DNA. They're all signed through next season except waiver pickup Stecher. A bunch are signed for 3 years. Three are signed until 2030.

Scotty Bowman doesn't agree with you

Sammy Blais is in for Quillian. MTL waived him. He has family in MTL. Maybe Domi's still in as a Christmas spirit of giving thing as he leads the forwards in giveaways per 60.

Hockey News is reporting Mathews and Knies doubtful against the Habs. Roy can't come off IR until after Montreal game. (7 day minimum) Berube stated today Carlo, Tanev and Stolarz won't be back any time soon.

Habs have lost their last 5 scoring 2.0 GFA

Matthews (skating with team) but I doubt they rush him in for MTL game Knies (day-to-day) & Carlo (IR effective Nov 13) are doubtful maybes for MTL (I don't know their latest injury status - haven't seen reports they have been skating with the team) Roy is skating and might be available after...

Their road record is 1W-5L The easy part of their schedule is arguably over. They have played 15 games at home, 6 on the road. Now, they're heading out on a 6 game road trip to: Montreal Columbus Washington Pittsburgh Florida Carolina When they return from that trip, we'll have a better sense of...

Everyone in that top six has scored 20 goals in a NHL season before except Robertson who is capable of doing so if given the ice time. Jarnkrok has performed decently in the Leafs top 6 before - though he's older now. I don't think McMann is bad defensively. I think Robertson with his size...

No one ever claimed "all the injuries are related to having an older team". That is a strawman Matthews himself has played a lot of hockey - international tournaments, all-star games, etc plus more NHL games than anyone in his draft year in spite of his injuries. He in the top 25 among forwards...

Not so much this year ... At a glance, they've beaten only 2 teams in the top 16 in win%: Flyers & Penguins Only one is in the top 14: Penguins 6th They look more like a team in a fight for a playoff spot than a team fighting to have a parade. Hopefully, they find a way to improve on that

Better do it soon because the schedule is going to be tougher

Tre had to know what was up with Matthews last season. He hasn't fully recovered and doesn't look like he ever will. Tre had to have a fair idea on the prognosis and that Matthews was injury prone to some degree before signing him to his current deal. Injuries associated with age are related to...

We knew going into this season that the Leafs were one of the older teams in the league. When players get older, their bodies wear down. Some injuries never heal 100%.So an older team has to expect more injuries or re-injuries. As Treliving well knows, it is part of his team's DNA.

They were struggling before those injuries

I have more confidence in Berube than Treliving. Just wasted ~30 minutes of my life watching his press conference (paraphrased): "We're losing more than we expected and we need to play more connected ..." "There's inconsistency in their effort ... but their effort has been pretty good in a lot...

Treliving said something loosely to the effect that they won't have a solid idea of when Tanev might return for another week. So LTIR won't be much of an inconvenience - he is likely going to be out 10 games & 24 days plus EDIT: here's the actual quote of Treliving on Tanev "It is not to be...

I wonder if those two things are related ... or maybe Tanev/Stolarz

If that holds and they keep Quillan, something else needs to happen with the roster. They're slightly over the cap by my calculation (unless I've missed a transaction/status) and have 24. Seems like Tanev might as well go on LTIR as he is unlikely to return next week. But someone else would have...
