Does a contender want to offer 38 year old Perry a contract he would want and have the Cap hit, when they can just trade a throwaway pick later and add him as a 4th liner with no Cap implications? I assume the Lightning want to get faster.

Again the ? was about why Perry would do that not teams.

So I have a feeling Nylander is getting traded..Nylander likes to play hard ball.. So does his agent.. And ferom reports is seems they are 1.5-2 mil off.

Tree does not have time to mess around before the MNMC kicks in..

Those changes have resulted in zero stanley cups being won.

And if "sniffing around" = making changes you and others should be overjoyed to have heard Tree Living was 'sniffing around' everything and was said to be the most active a Leafs GM has been in a decade right?

If you missed it it's on Ek's main page, scroll down a bit in the Draft Tracker and you will see it beside the Leaf logo.

It's not "praying", it's called sports. Winning is hard. You can't do it without top end talent the leafs have and then the right mix of other guys, health and etc.

You're probably a fan who also said Kessel can't win but he won 3 cups. 2 he was a core part of the team.
Probably also thought Ovechkin couldn't win and then he did.
Probably also thought Eichel would never win a cup either as a core guy but yet here we are....

Gotta stop saying that about top end talent.

- Aaron_85


hulk down Sparky.

I liked Kessel. I had no opinion about whether or not Ovechkin or Eichel would ever win a cup until Eichel went to Vegas.

Seriously?

Niemela arrived at the Toronto Marlies at the end of the season after finishing his time with Kärpät in Finland. While his offensive numbers were lower this year, he was more focused on improving his defensive play.

In 6 games at the end of the year with the Marlies, where the team went 2-4, he put in 2 points and was even in +/-. In the playoffs he had 2 goals, 5 points and was +2 in 7 games, leading all defensemen on the team.

But please. We'd all like to hear more from your ass. Do go on.

Probably decide to fly over Ukraine, looking for some Eastern European delicacy and was either shot down as a drone or captured by the Wagner group.

I think Nylander is asking for a 10M cap hit on his next contract

I Like Styles, but not at 10M cap hit.

Nylander is being traded.

Pretty much confirmed. It’s playing out exactly how I predicted it would. He’s demanding too much money, Brad won’t pay it.

Yeah maybe.

If I could fly I’d check out a bunch of different places too.

It’s funny to me how I can write one sentence of harmless banter and it triggers you to write a paragraph in response.

You’re the stats guy, right on. But sometimes not everything needs in depth analysis. Maybe lighten up a little?

- dmnted


My opinion: I really like Scheifele and he's been clearly frustrated in Winnipeg. You move Nylander for Scheifele, (a) Winnipeg would need to pay Nylander the money he wants and he would want to be there and (b) Winnipeg would need to add to make it more even. Scheifele is good, but Willy is 2 years younger and better.

Expand it to something where we would need to add, and maybe a Samsonov + Nylander for Scheifele & Hellebuyck as the basis would be more even - they both want out of Winnipeg . . . I like all 4 players, but they'd get scoring (but lose a centre), we'd get a centre for 2C and we'd get a better goalie but they would get more control and a more affordable price.

Dealing with next year's cap is tomorrow Brad's problem. Just like how drinking heavily is tomorrow moneypunk's problem.

I thought my last sentence was pretty light. You want to unfairly slam the Leafs prospects, I'll let you know you're inaccurate. I'll just to tell you why instead of just calling you names which is something I thought you'd appreciate!
