Like Mikheyev and Engvall?

Yes another element means more of what you have. Good one.

Lists were put together before his statement. Doesn’t mean they would have taken him.
- Canada Cup

Well the report was 11 teams removing him from their list. So that left 21 with him still being there.

But fair enough.

Kings are better trade partners for Detroit. Lots of quality prospects. They can afford to give one of them up. Leafs can't.

I'd be open to trading Robertson in a deal for the right forward...Amirov isnt going anywhere though he has a high ceiling.

I don't think LA needs to trade for a top 6. Plenty of UFA's that would fit nicely with them.

Meh, 21 teams still had Mailloux on their list according to the Athletic.

If it wasn't the Habs, someone else was picking the talented bumhole.

I wouldn't, mostly to avoid handling the drama surrounding the pick.

But here we are.
- Scabeh

Being on a list doesn't guarantee a team is going to go there.

Even if they are, let him slip out of the first round when the NHL isn't having its draft show and plunking the GMs in front of podiums to make picks.

Let some small market team that isn't so under the media microscope make that mistake.

Don't stand in front of the camera and basically say (frank) you to well... Everyone...

It’s great for Josh
- Steven_Seagull

Yeah, that got me. Nice one!

The Leafs aren’t built to win. Extremely cheap goaltending, average D group, crap bottom-6, overpaid underachieving top-6.

Oh well, there’s always next year…
- Steven_Seagull

Oh!

We’ll never know. Bergevin won the race to the bottom

Oh!

He pains me to say it.

You literally said big fast winger. Do Mikheyev and Engvall not fit that description?

Maybe the description is the problem then. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Some of us can see it Z. Why can't he?

Also, he all but said it when he said something along the lines of -- $40m on forwards has never been done before.

That's one step away from -- it hasn't been done before because it doesn't fu3king work...especially during a flat cap.

So maybe he's closing in on "stuff he can't possibly know".
- underhill14

All the stuff anyone ever says about emotional dynamics and relationships in the group are pure mind reading. The rest is opinion and prediction. We'll see.

Robertson has 3 more years on his ELC and the Leafs need as many cheap players as they can possible get to offset the imbalance of the Core 4.

Roberston gets a serious look this season and then all bets are off.

What came after fast winger? With good hands

LA has already expressed interest in Bertuzzi. They simply have more to offer than Toronto does.

Playing to his strenght!

Thats great.

I think they get a player in FA instead so they dont have to give up prospects and picks. Tons of fits there.

What’s with these people? That would be like trading……. I dunno…… Holl

- Scabeh

With Weber gone, he needed another Predator (not an exact fit, I know)

Hopefully Rob Blake has your phone number.

Dealbreaker if they come with good hands I guess.

To me, a different element would be big fast scoring winger who uses his size. Not another big softie except with decent hands.

- mjones242

Yeah I'd like to keep one of Amirov and him for that reason.

But if the right player comes along I would include him in a deal...Its important the Leafs add a good player too.

Hopefully Rob Blake has your phone number.
- gergeswillems

He doesn't.

Its what I think, don't take it so seriously.

Could have ran at Tony DeAngelo and it actually would have been a more respectable move.

Wouldn't have had to blow a first rounder either.

He doesn't.

Are you playing the "triggered" card again when someone disagrees with you?

What’s with these people? That would be like trading……. I dunno…… Holl
- Canada Cup

It's almost like Holl and Robertson are completely different things on completely different trajectories with completely different style contracts and are valued in completely different ways.

But yes, keep flailing.

- gergeswillems

No. I said my opinion and you said a douchey comment that I must have Rob Blakes phone number.

Move on man.
