Trump’s not worried about Kanye. He’s got the bald Bruno Mars.

Apparently, Dubas accidentally spent money on four top end offensive talents and is now stuck with them.

And that's the dumbest arguments ever by non-Leaf fans/ Rather sad.

They can't seem to grasp that overspending on 3rd and 4th line is not necessary.

What a shame, looks good on em.

Now they don't have enough money to overpay 4th liners. What will they do?

You'd think that after repeatedly seeing them correctly navigate the cba and cap that they'd eventually get the hint.

This is a summer tradition. Every July we hear how the Leafs are doomed and will have to trade everyone. Yawn.

That Lou has it right. Spend 20 million in cap on 4th liners.

Sooooooo...

Air conditioner stopped pumping cold air last night.

To get ready for the service guy, I had to clean out under the back deck.

Raccoon poop, giant ants and the scariest spiders I have ever seen.

How is your day going?

For a guy that has worked in the trades early in his life...I commend you.

1% of people clean out their homes before someone shows up.

TRue story, I once cleaned-up for a guy repairing something in my house and as he was leaving asked if he could use the bathroom. He just poop everywhere and left.

It's just funny as a Leaf fan hearing for a year Nylander is millions overpaid and I am supposed to wait to pass judgement on that terrible Hayes contract.

Leafs were very smart to move on from JVR and not even offer him a deal.

Are you thinking Hayes and JVR are better deals than Nylander? ROTFL

2019-20: JVR- age 31-7.5 cap hit. 19 Goals, 40 points
Hayes; Age 28-cap hit 7.15 23 goals, 41 points.
Nylander: age 24, cap hit 6.9 31 goals, 59 points

- RogerRoeper


Where did I say that the Hayes and JvR deals were better than the Nylander deal? All I did was give an assessment, to date, of them.

Almost as embarrassing as wanting Risto.

I agree.. If Risto was ever on an actual NHL team, he'd be a lot better...

It’s just good to know that the leafs have ZERO contracts that need a first rounder to get rid of anymore. The Marleau deal was unfortunate but necessary.
Going forward anyone they feel they NEED to move brings back some value and they have a healthy market to act within. 85% of teams are looking to add scoring up front. So having a dance partner won’t be an issue. Just my thoughts and haters can suck that

It makes too much sense.

If you are a fan that doesn't want to trade away a Marner/Nylander for a D then Risto is the best D they are getting.

He fits well and it will cost a fair price of 2 2nd/3rd line forwards.

I guess the USMC, US Navy, and Coast Guard need to change their Nazi seals as well. Not to mention the Seal of the President of the United States.

Look, I think the whole "America First" and MAGA (poop) is dumb. But the constant comparisons between Nazi and Hitler has reached fever pitch stupidity.

Completely agreed.

He hits, his GV are pretty low, he's got some decent offensive talent, has size, and can skate. And he's been the beneficiary of a dumpster fire team where he's had to spend the majority of his time in DZone starts.

I get the anti-Sabre sentiment but Risto would be a (frank)ing great fit.

he's 25 too.

The Muzzin complainers who complain that he is too old to be given a long term deal won't be upset here either.

At 27 they can sign him to 5-6 years and he will only be 32-33.

Him and Muzz are a fit for top comp.

Trade Dermott for a top 9 forward. I mentioned Roslovic yesterday.

Muzzin-Risto
Rielly-?
Sandin-?

Holl, Liljegren,Lehtonen, One year D signing(Benning,Gudas,ect) Can fill out the last 2 spots

Leafs fans overrate Dermott.

At this point, he is a #5, with PP upside.

Every team already has that guy.

I like it.

Gudas would be a nice sandpaper addition though I'm not sure if we'd be able to get him on a team-friendly deal.

Dermott is definitely over-rated and he's behind Rielly, Muzzin, and Sandin on the left side. He's also RFA and will be looking for a raise... no thanks. Trade 'em!

He is a young 3rd pairing D with some 2nd pairing upside.

That is all.

Leafs could sign Roslovic for 1.25-1.5 for 2 years.

A guy the leafs could target for 1 year 1 million is TVR.

Just wondering:

Is there any other team's thread where opposing fans wander in to do sad attempts to spread doom and gloom?

I know that there's always some trash talk if the teams are playing that night, but what would motivate the Spatsos of the world to post poop like this?

The Leafs haven't won since 1967 - why are these guys so obsessed?
