Kraken may go off the board and take Giraffe. Stranger things have happened!
- mjones242

Doubtful. Take Kerfoot and give the Leafs a 4th round pick for the Giraffe.

Or they can do it the other way around and give a 2nd for Kefoot

Holl and/or Dermott can be exposed. Leafs are fine per expansion eligibles.

EDIT: looks like Dermott just signed for 1.5Mx2? (for some reason, I forgot he wasn't already signed

- mjones242

Im no expansion expert but the NHL has been dumb in the past...maybe you need to have a certain amount of players signed as well

Would it be wise to take a RFA? What if they won't sign?
- bobbyisno1


why wouldnt he sign?

he would probably get a good chance on an exp team.
they will also be in the cup finals before the leafs

he should want to go

I think it's the "bit crazier" bit that I'm not quite sure of. There's 55 years of pent-up failure and frustration that could be a powder keg ready to explode.

Plus, with all due respect to the Raptors, Leafs fandom is orders of magnitude larger than the Raps.

I'm thinking some burning cars is inevitable but I'm just hoping it isn't Vancouver 2.0.

(not that I'll be alive when this future fantasy of winning a Cup all goes down)

All kinds of events, World Series, NBA wins, NHL game 7 losses, the Purge provide license to act out. Maybe the larger fanbase universe and greater meathead ratio would make craziness more likely. I sort of doubt the longer wait would be that much of a factor since most car flippers would t have been waiting 55 years

Yeah, true -- could be some caveats I'm not aware of for sure.

Edit: From PPP,

"A cynic might note that in order to use the eight skaters Expansion Draft protection format to protect four defenders and four forwards, the Leafs neded (sic) a defender under contract for next season who met the exposure rules. They now have that."

Muzzin retires

Given the HC is a former Leafs coach I am sure they know exactly who the Kraken wants.

Jesus man, read the CBA. 12.3b “Any player who has been dead for any period of time is exempt from the next expansion draft.”

#ThrowbackThursday: After the 2015 Stanley Cup, the #GoBolts proposed a vote to end the salary cap loop hole that enabled the #Blackhawks to go $5 million over the cap.

No other team joined the cause


if this is true, good for them.
