We were all hoping that little wiener would take the bet and we could get rid of him and his 40+ alts.

You’ll never get rid of me that easily.

I heard a condition of JT signing was that Lums needs to post again.

Does Lums need to post again or is he looking for an introduction?

It's not in 2018 - the economy is booming right now. It would have been a few years back. Guys like Tavares get opportunities that common folk like us don't, which you have to factor in.

I'll admit I giggled a little when I read the terms, it's just so clever to get it all up front. No escrow on the majority of his salary, the $925K he's getting paid is pocket money. Hell, the exchange on that can give him a high flying lifestyle with access to whatever he wants. When Leafs brass presented him with the offer he was probably going 'Wait a minute, we can do that?'

If you could go ahead and point me in the direction of the relatively conservative investment that returns 20% I'll happily give you a 5% finders fee



I'm taking on considerable risk to get to double digit returns

I work in the investment field and a conservative investment will get you between 4-6% on average. Relatively high risk is probably 8-12%. You can make alot more than that but it would have to be high risk. As much as your investment can go up it can go down. So if you can make 20% you can lose 20% and that's not low risk.

Not looking to argue but investing is all risk reward. You can't get a high return like 20% without having a high risk. Also the economy is not booming. Markets this year have not been doing well at all. If you're invested in somethibg like mutual funds you're lucky if you're not down.

that was the pinnacle of dumb signings by Burke and crew.

that guy had zero heart, no interest and was totally going thru the motions.

him and Jason Blake... those made me question being a Leaf fan

So what's the plan for shoring up the D?

I still think Myers would be a decent and affordable stopgap

Rielly Myers
Gardiner Hainsey
Dermott Zaitsev
Cyborg/Carrick


Sure it's not Nashville or Tampa but the Leafs are gonna score a lot?
