I love the Wilson idea, but no way in heck we can make him fit under the cap.

He only makes 5.1M. Kerfoot and a bit of retention from the Caps and it would work. Could send Sandin, or Holl for more.

He almost never does - and not with as much success.

This year he has been almost exclusively left-side.

Last year he did have some time on the right side - with Caleb Jones and Calvin DeHaan - but that was maybe 200 minutes out of the year (he was +1 with both, but that was in more sheltered minutes). He also played up with Seth Jones and Murphy while spending over 800 minutes on the left side - when playing in the line-up he was absolutely murdered (-26 with those two), but again he has been better this year.

Even if he ends up being a 3rd pair guy, we have him at only $2m and he is a very effective defenseman against lower calibre competition.

Know what I got out of this post? Leafs are getting Chychrun.

its the leafs, loaded up... setting the stage for a grand flop
- senstroll



Leafs picked up some bit players, O’Reilly being the best at 3rd line centre. The others are 4th liners and 3rd pairing D. I’d hardly call that “loading up”. Meier and Chychrun, now that’s loading up. Anyways, glad to see them giving the team a chance at least! They would have had zero chance without these moves.

Bally Sports Network started as the Fox Sports Network in the mid-1990s.

You really think the Arizona Coyotes are going to build their own network?

And will it come on before or after LIV Golf?

- Atomic Wedgie


I remember the days when regional games would be on Over-The-Air stations. With all of the transmitters, in big cities, you'd think that you could have one of them buy the rights and broadcast the games on one of their subchannels. But of course, the greedy regional sports networks want to make you pay to watch and force feed you gambling and beer commercials. At least the OTA channels had a bigger footprint and the games were available to everyone. I miss the days of the Leafs on CFTO, Global and CHCH. Guys like Fergie Oliver, Richard Bedoes and Jim Tatti ruled. Most of you out there weren't even born when CFTO did the Leafs games on Wednesday Nights. At the time, they were a minority share owner of the Maple Leafs.

They knew what they were doing. Why recycle 24 with McCabe on the back, when you have to get a #6 Jersey for McCabe? Ron Ellis is probably
right now.

Gio goes in clean shaven, for the first period faceoff and comes off at the end of the period with a 5 O'clock shadow.

Correct. Bailey granted the retired jersey to Ron Ellis to use until he retired.

My dad said they (frank)ed his food up almost every meal, when he was in there. Just giving him things he didn't ask for and didn't give him things he did ask for. But said it didn't overly matter, since it all sucked.
- GreatGigInTheSky


my breakfast was (frank)ed up today lol

It was supposed to be a cold boiled egg, a muffin, and cereal

It was two muffins and the cereal lol

I didn’t complain because meh… why the (frank) would I fight for hospital food? Lol

Are you kidding me?
He goes from clean shaven during the warm up to 5 O’clock shadow at puck drop.
He’s a full 2 days after the 3rd period.
If games go into overtime in the playoffs he’s gonna be Tom Hanks in Castaway.

Kyle Dubas on the necessity of another move to accommodate the Jake McCabe/Sam Lafferty additions as well as Matt Murray’s imminent return: “An old friend of mine used to say, “When time is on your side, use it.”

It looks like some web editor for the Leafs has just slapped the numbers that they wore in Chicago on the Leafs' website.
