Why are the Leafs moving Marner again?
- opeth_pa

Because he wants him on the Flyers?

They'll have 40+ tied up in 4 players.

And they will lose like the Caps did. For years.

I just say TRY.

You always say BAD BUSINESS, without actually saying how it hurts our Brand.

Ok?

So basically troll the Leafs just because we can realizing that their are always consequences to every action.

Keep applying for those Flyer internships, I'm sure you are knocking on the door to be next in their FLYER ADMINISTRATOR program.

Still aren't making any sense.

Tell me, which player out of Trouba, Karlsson, Connor, Werenski, Aho, Laine, Tkachuk and Provorov are going to receive a OS from another team. All are RFA's.

It actually is possible we price them out of him.

They cannot afford him, and will suffer if they don't get vets willing to offer a discount.

Watch them this year. 2nd round at best. And will be lesser next year.

No it's not.
- MJL

Why isn't he signed?

Why isn't he signed?

because he and his agent said multiple times they didn't want to negotiate until the season was over.

They can afford him. They make other moves. They're not going to move him. The debate is not about how good the Leafs will do in the playoffs.

Fine. You win! Congrats.

They are not cornerstones & elite.

Including Provorov. Or are you saying he is as valuable as Marner...no?, thx.

Both Hakstol and Gordon preached fundamentals.
- MJL

Nobody could hear that low-speaker HineyStol at the bench. Worst bench coach all time in any sport.

Stay for after the credits.

Not yet Broseph

It means they were excellent at some point is what I was trying to say.

That means, joke or not, Jim Carey was really good. It's a shame he could never recapture it.

Jack Adams goes to the coach with the most improved/surprising team, which is usually the one with their players having outlier seasons, and good teams bouncing back from injury-riddled/underperforming seasons.

Was it Paul MacLean that was great, or was it Craig Anderson's .941SV%?

Hitchcock, Brian Elliott 0.940SV%.

Torts, Bobrovsky 0.931%.

Boudreau, Ovechkin with 65 goals.

Roy, Varlamov 0.927%.

Glen Sather, Gretzky 215 points.

Nolan, Hasek 0.930%

You get the pattern. Not saying the coaches were completely undeserving, but just that more goes into the Adams than just how well the team was coached that year. Player performance and circumstances have a lot to do with who wins too.

Is this really an hour long
