Leafs sign Kampf to 2-year deal, $1.5M AAV.
- Theo Fox

Still waiting for P. Suter think his agent overplayed his hand.

Even if they signed .McCabe for $4 per season, if he's good at playing defense without the puck, that's fine with me.

Like I said to you the other day. If the red car can lap a circuit in 2 minutes and a blue car laps the same circuit in 3 minutes then some Dude tells you his “eye test” tells him the blue car looks faster, do you go with his eye test or the statistics?

Id tell him to go see an eye doctor...

It could be the driver not the car...

The leafs need forwards who can defend and kill penalties but the stupid GM is always focused on forwards and still desperately needs defensemen.

I think Stan realized that his team sucks at developing defensemen

Seriously D. This guy makes Bollig look like an all-star.
- Elbows15


That's possible. Haven't seen much of him to know and generally trust your hockey sense. Was making a joke about getting McJesus for a 7th.

On the contrary, I’m a numbers guy, quite good at numbers actually with being a finance director. But I don’t just rely on charts and give an opinion las if I watch these players actually play. That’s just being fake. I actually watch these players play, and he’s quite good on the PK
- rwilliams88

Riiiggghhht. You probably have no idea he is the moron who kept putting the Hawks on the PP last year in the bubble.

I'm still trying to understand the fancy stats but, each season he averages about 60% d-zone starts and if I'm interpreting correctly, his team/line retains possession better than 50% of the time when he's out there.

A finance director who doesn’t rely on data? Please let me know what company you’re a director at so I don’t invest in it.🤦🏼

I just posted his chart. McCabe is a solid add and a legit 2nd pair D-man. Also of note, paired with Jones on a gold medal US team on which McCabe was the Captain

Don’t remember him being in the penalty box, might be right but it doesn’t stand out to me. Is this proving you know who he is other than your charts LOL?
