Nah. I choose to believe what some people in the comment thread were saying. He's obviously a time traveler and knew the outcome.

Plus minus?

Really?

Kapanen would of been a minus if he was on Edmonton too.

Kap and Larson are the best players in the deal.

If they were the same stages of their career it’s probably a fair deal.

But it’s not so you add brown for Puljujarvi. Pulajujarvi is 21 years old and a 4th overall pick. He has a lot more value than Brown.

Honestly would rather target the you ger Benning for defence and have Kassian over Pul.

After reading the question and answers, I am more convinced than ever that the Leafs are completely screwed. Every Leaf fan on the planet has been screaming for defence. Is Muzzin the answer? And now there are not enough funds to sign even their own players (Gardiner) that everyone hates. Meanwhile Dubas is treated with kid gloves. Is it possible Shanny picked the wrong GM? Think about that as you watch the first round of this years draft.

If serious, what a stupid comment.

Yes, because the Leafs didn’t win in Dubas’ first year, he’s obviously not the right guy.

For the perceived cap problems, the two contracts that are the issue were ones he inherited - Marleau and Zaitsev. The reason why I say “perceived” is because after this season Marleau and Horton’s contracts are finished. That’s 11.55 off the cap.

If Mike's Q+A is enough to give you such conviction, may I invite you over here for my informal presentation on the benefits of magic beans...?

This comment was about as coherent as GOT's without GRRM's pre-written work.

Twitter questions and MIB answers should not convince you of anything

Meh, then watch the Raps.
Once theyre over, enjoy the summer.
Dont worry about the leafs until October.

Or read all the dumb peoples comments on Twitter who didnt see what happened in GOT coming from a mile away. Youll get a good laugh.

Watching the Raps game gave me the same feels as the JB bat flip.
How sweet is it going to be when we have a Leafs moment like that

I was watching the game and my stream was delayed, I saw a Tweet that Said "OH MY GOD"

I closed twitter immediately and watched, being a Toronto Sports fan I had no idea what way it was going to go but thought, poop something happens

Insufferably smug, Frenchy.

Then I’ll female dog about how we won the wrong way and played nothing like the 2011 Bruins.
