this is not a Trotz team. Its a lou lamoriello. that guy knows how to pick them. amazing how he has been able to turn around that franchise.

It wins, but it is a (frank)ing boring brand of hockey.

dude they have tavares mathews marner nylander and we have claude giroux?
- 2Real


I know they’re not pavelski but we also have tk myers sanheim provy and hart.

How well did Tavares Marner and Matthews do this playoffs? Oh wait. They didn’t make it. Paying 40 mil for offense when it’s d that wins in the playoffs isn’t smart.

As a fan, I’m angry. They just flat out didn’t show up today. They showed no backbone at all tonight. That said, I wouldn’t be and I’m sure Fletcher, won’t be rash. To judge too harshly the results of what this season has become would be a mistake.

Take some time, re-evaluate, before making any moves. A global pandemic ruined their season.... now I’ve seen it all. Thank god Steve Cohen is getting the Mets.

It’s been a pleasure chatting with you guys these past few weeks. I hope you and your families are well. Be back for the draft.

seriously, he looks on the verge of being in the Norris conversation, has all the tools.
- Aetherial


Fair enough. I see him now as a good dman who peaks at being very good (from top 20 to top 10) bit does not really make it near top 5.

But, hey, from your mouth to God's ears.

Christ, I am bummed.

Marner failed this year, but he was good last year. Its a new coach. He gets a pass.

Plus that team plays like the Caps used to play before they broke through. Too much fancy stuff to the outside.

Matthews was fine.

JT is always a bit of a mystery to me. I never know if he is elite or overrated.

Once all the '74-'75 guys are gone they can bring the guys from this team back for special nights every five years.

If those assets are so good why would they trade them? Also, 3 forwards make 33 mil of the cap? If they do try to trade these assets who takes on long term max cap hit? If you mean tradings firsts that even worse in the cap world. The fix for the leafs is complicated and I think we’re in a better spot.

Question. So you’d trade provy for Marner or Tavares? I wouldn’t.
