Your team just gave up three 1st's, two 2nd's, a 3rd and prospects like Sareela and Duclair for rentals...your franchise is in the gutter with bad contracts and aging players..best of luck over the next few years hitting the restart button

Bingo....

No championships to show for it either.

Toskala for a 1st round and a 2nd rounder.
Bernier for some scrubs and a 2nd rounder.
Anderson for a 1st and 2nd rounder.


The writing is on the walls. When you take a goalie from the WC who was on a top team with great defense... and move him to the complete steaming pile of horse poop that is Toronto... they are going to bust.

No. Don't think so.

Guarantee well still make the playoffs next year. Maybe even win a round. While you'll be on the outside looking in, again.

You're taking the Edmonton approach to rebuilding. It's been working out really well for them.

Keep an eye on @AnaheimDucks potentially moving one of their good young D. Plenty of market interest esp on Fowler. @NHL @NHLNetwork 🏒

Some more action today perhaps???

Not surprising that teams want to go into the draft with pieces in place to focus on the draft more.

Well, congratulations, but still nowhere in that tweet you tried using as proof that Vesey will not sign in Buffalo did it literally say that Vesey said he will not sign in Buffalo.

Nothing better than trolling degenerate Leaf fans at the FNC as they talk about their New(est) franchise goalie.

I"ll take that bet. I bet that Buffalo will make the playoffs along with NYR and probably NYI. I'll take that bet all day.

Don't you dare compare us to the dumpster fire that is EDM. We are already out of the cellar of the NHL. They have been worst team like 6 times in the last 8 years.

Vesey's not signing with the Leafs. He'll be in Boston. The Leafs have enough youngsters on the wings with Nylander, Marner, Brown, Hyman and Sosh

Here's a guy that supports a team that trades it's 1st round picks every year for rentals and continues to lose, and get worse.

yea because they have done SO MUCH! Maybe add in Gracco and Kapanen and you will have the entire 2018 NHL All-Star lineup.

Toronto is about to become EDM 2.0. Great kids. Thrown to the wolves.

Man I hope the Sabres sign Vesey if only just to see the look on those cocky Leaf fans' faces.

Lundqvist, Stepan, Brassard, Kreider, Nash, McIlrath, Miller, Hayes, Zuccarello, McDonagh, Klein, Skjei, Buchnevich, Lindberg, Fast. The Rangers are in great shape right now.

I think the expectations of this kid are crazy high.

23, has yet to ever touch pro ice even in the AHL. All signs point to top 6 forward, but we just don't know.

No one has any idea if he is going to sign here. Everyone has their opinion.

I still don't fault Murray for trying to get a two month head start on being able to talk to the kid and his agent.

- ImThatGuy


If he could reenter this draft he would probably go top ten. His calling is Chris Kreider with a way higher hockey IQ

Every single NHL team would probably be lined up to sign him when he is a ufa
This is just like the Blake Wheeler race

- Michael Pachla


No. I mean, if they can sign him, then good for them. But I don't know about "Steal of the Century." Also, I don't know why they decided to give a 3rd when they could have just signed him in August if Buffalo can offer him such a fabulous life/career situation.

Who's Gracco?

Why are you being so aggressive? I didn't say anything about their talent levels, that was you.

All I mentioned was age
