Cuz he is being traded. Opens up cap for Hamilton or Landy. 2.5 mill from letting Hyman walk, couple mill after signing a cheaper 1b and Anderson walking and Reilly's 5 mill... 5+2.5+2= up to 9.5 for Hamilton or Landy. Depends on which way they go it still leaves 3 for a forward or a Dman if my maths right... Lol

I think it’s pretty clear from what he said today that he’s not stripping money from his forward budget to pay for an upgrade on defence

Orville or Wilbur?

Nah. Wings need him so the whiny Red Wings fans can say Yzerman made a bad pick.

I'd give him time. IMO he is more talented then his brother but smaller. It took Jason till he was 22 before he hit stride. Good thing Dallas didn't jump the Gun. Hope the Leafs let Nick get past puberty before drastic measures happen... Lol.
- Buck Norris

He reminds me of Yakupov.

I'm expecting something like this...

UFA/Matthews/Marner
Robertson/Tavares/Nylander
Bunting/Kerfoot/Mikheyev
Simmonds/Engvall/Spezza
Brooks

Rielly/Brodie
Muzzin/Holl
Sandin/Dermott
Liljegren

Campbell/UFA

I think there will be more change on the third line. That just doesn’t stack up with Dubas’ comments today. I think he has an idea and realizes he has to act on it. He may not get the pieces he wants but plugging in a Hyman replacement won’t cut it

Matthew Savoie it is.

I hope for the Leafs sake you're right.

Fans are funny. When a pick is made they think they know more about the player than the GM does.

Tell Mikheyev that if he doesn’t start hitting people…

And here's to you, Jason Robertson
Dallas loves you more than you will know
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Jimmy Nill bless you, please, Jason Robertson
Heiskanen holds a place on the team you play
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Apparently he sucks. Lidstrom says he's very good but what the (frank) would he know about playing D?

Well you gotta know how to play with a bunch of D's to win the Norris a bunch of times

Is Matthew knies good?
- TheMussel

Very skilled and plays hard.

Grew ~5 inches in the last couple years. Could still be getting use to his bigger body.

He has size, he can skate, he’s great defensively. Total bust.

Yeah I mean Yzerman really set the team back a decade.

He’s gonna drop a spot when Justin “The Holl Monitor” cleans up the Norris for the next 10 years. Irre-(frank)ing-placeable.

He's got Knies size and could be Knies Hyman replacement.... in 5-7 years.

So Landy it is...
