MiB must be nursing the worlds worst hangover right now

Either that or he got jumped in downtown Buffalo and is currently lying in a hospital bed somewhere...

Oh.

so what you are saying is that Stamkos will be a Leafs come July 1st @12:01pm.

Yup. I still feel like Lucic is a serious option the leafs should consider especially now. Perfect timing for a winger with size grit and scoring prowess. Lucic-Matthews-Marner

In totally unrelated news, Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nazem Kadri has been brought in to a western New York precinct for questioning. He reportedly fell violently to his knees as police approached him and gently clutched his arm.

So "Hockeys future's" top ten prospects are:

McDavid
Eichel
Bennett
Reinhart
Larkin
Ehlers
Marner
Nylander
Strome
Draisaitl

Those bolded are the ones who are eligible for the Calder next year. You have to think that Matthews would legitimately be on top of that list. So even if you slide in Laine and Puljujarvi also, the Leafs have three of the top five (six?) prospects who are calder eligible next year...

Add in two on the list each for Edmonton and Buffalo, and Winnipeg adding Laine/Puljujarvi to their cupboard, and we should be in for some epic rivalries in a few years.


This is awesome

Well, guess we found MiB!!!

Wife's dad and he's only 10....I'd probably have to watch the games from Jail if I booted him out

Plenty of time to convert him...also, never let him near Grandpa again.

@HabsInATweet: One plus about #Leafs getting Matthews is this may leave #Habs as only CDN team for Stamkos. We need a 1C and he can put us over the top.

I always thought Stamkos to Montreal was a possibility. The lottery win would help with the sting of such an event.

No. Stop that.

. All I keep thinking about is how we have 2 possibly 3 players next year that should compete for the calder trophy. How often does that happen? I know I'm getting ahead of myself.

Are you sure Nylander's still eligible?

He is in fact still eligible.

Yes, he played less than 25 games

Nylander will win it this year.

Mike Ricahrds 2.0? No thanks.

I'd rather trade for Troy Bouwer for that position. (Kidding)

Vancouver Canucks

Today @ 3:30 PM ET
If you don't win, you lose. Canucks "went" from 3 to five. Loss.

Looking back at past five to 7s, not many to get a excited about. Solid players, but not guys who are going to be able to speed up a re-build





- nbboy

I know they aren't exactly McDavid/Eichel/Matthews. But Hanifin, Zacha, Provorov went 5-7 last year and they certainly aren't anything to sneeze at.

They do need a couple of big wingers now, oh and a goalie.

So many good things happening for the 100th Anniversary.


Anybody else think it's Illuminati weird that the Leafs get Matthews and Stamkos plus the definite additions of some of the other top prospects...Nylander, Hyman, Sosh, Marner....plus Zaitsev, plus maybe Vesey, plus the other 50% roster turnover that Lou said which will probably get the Leafs a #2D and #1G, plus the 11 other draft picks and ALL of this on this specific year?

(of joy)!

They will sort it out without the expensive and slowing down Lucic.
