Yes there a big ol $&@ no on Karlsson though.

Interesting but honestly like the moves we did make here overall

With a 3.82 gaa and .888sv % its a big surprise as hes not very good

You're forgetting the Leaf factor.

No doubt, but Edmonton gave up a LOT for him.

Leafs gave up quite a bit for mccabe.
Ya gotta pay to get.
But the cap didnt look like it would have worked out.

Garbage penalty call to give an absolute garbage team a power play again.

What a joke.

(frank) Vancouver & their loser fans - Jesus they need the “coming ‘round the mountain’ song to even be heard over the Leaf fans. Lmao

There is likely no fan base with more total losers and a higher percentage of losers than the Leafs.

This is true

Pretty sure we're the only fanbase with a cat poop guy

Leafs didn't give up poop for McCabe compared to what the Oilers paid for Ekholm.

Leafs desperately need offense from a dman , and would make the pp much better, but that term is bad lol

Except Montreal, all their fans are (frank)ing dorks.

There's an irony of this coming on the night the Leafs are playing the Canucks
Vancouver takes that prize.

But I'll concede that Toronto is probably #2.

Wasn't it similar return? Was the prospect good? I saw barrie as a bad contract honestly

Doubtful. Sheer number might make up for it, but at least leaf fans don't physically assault rival fans after games like Boston fans...that's true loser poop

Term is terrible and he is and always has been a defensive liability and tirnover machine. Hard pass.

The Leafs got McCabe at 50% retention with 2 years left, and another useful player with term in Lafferty for a 1st, 2nd and two warm bodies.

The cost for Ekholm was Barrie (who has 43 points this year and definitely doesn't require paying anyone to take) a 1st, 4th, and a prospect recently drafted in round 1 with basically ZERO retention.

It's not even close.

Just a massive (frank)ing douchebag. Can't stand him.

Two games out of the last 3 for Leafs broadcasts we get the other teams Richardriders calling the game.

Heh after all it’s home game start time lol
Contrary to your believe it’s not our broadcasters calling the game.

nice to see dart guy there

Ekholm is also a lot better player isn't he?

What a pass!!!!!

Willy Ny to Snakes!!!! Beauty

Nice pass by the Will

Ekholm is also a lot better player isn't he?
- Archaic

Depends on one's perspective I guess.

I don't think he's better enough to warrant paying that much more at this point in his career to take him at full price on a contract that's bound to have some dirty years at the end.

Much rather have McCabe and Lafferty at their acquisition costs and salaries going forward.

Leafs are saddled with noted Canucks homer Simpson. In the Edmonton game, they forced Debrusk on us.

Cuthbert is just awful at his job, thankfully, and it's no longer the biggest Richardrider in the history of the game in Hughson, calling the Leafs anymore.
