My buddy has a friend whose cousin's barber has a daughter who works as a bartender on Robidas Island.

I'll ask if she has seen anything.

I sincerely doubt Edmonton throws in a third round pick.

Who hasn't watched this at least 20 times?

. . . .and here's the funny thing - today is the first time I noticed that everyone else on the ice stopped what they were doing and just watched the spectacle. Like at 24 seconds you can see they're paired off, but they're just watching the goalies.

I'm sure there are numerous factors that will be considered in his decision.

I do think he's a better fit there, hockey wise, than he would be in Toronto, Buffalo and New York who are also reported as potential destination.

Maybe New York would work since they won't also have Tarasenko in their top 6.

Still wondering who's actually willing to give him that multiple year contract for "not league minimum" after that big surgery of his.

I was about to say the same thing.

All the players on the ice stopped fighting and watched the two goalies go at it.

I just dont see a fit for Kane in Toronto, he doesnt help the leafs existing woes and only makes things more difficult cap wise.

Maybe if the leafs really improved their D, then we can look at kane.

Im leaning towards Detroit, nyr and panthers.

From the Xitter:

5 years ago Jack Campbell was playing in the AHL and making $700K. Today he is playing in the AHL and making $5M.

Never give up on your dreams.

And still got lit up for four goals in his first game no less 🤣. Not a bad gig for him though.

Awesome. I can’t do the dances and I only know what the floss is.

Kids who call people cringe, are cringe.

All of the ppl who work for me under the age of 25 vape. (frank)ing ridiculous lol. They all smell like vanilla or cotton candy.

Not I'm a fan of vaping, but I'll take vanilla and cotton candy over the smell of smokes or weed.

I don’t think we need everything NOW.

TDL is months away, lots of time to add to the D. Unless Kane is demanding 3-5M then he doesn’t mess up the cap situation at all. Doubtful any team gives him anything close to that except maybe Buffalo. Buffalo isn’t going anywhere this year.

If there is mutual interest make it happen, if not move on and who cares. Always will take a talented player that wants to play for the Leafs.

It would be strange.

Don’t think Detroit is in a playoff spot this year, they really aren’t that good.

Larkin and Debrincat cooled off and they are losing again.

Toronto, NYR or Boston.

Leafs have LTIR and a pilon that they will trade eventually to clear up 4.15M. He’d have to take league minimum to go to Boston.

NYR seems the most likely all things considered.

If he goes to Detroit he’s going to be doing this same process at the TDL when Detroit needs to deal him.

I don't think Bertuzzi 2PP and 3rd line is exactly setting him up for success...have to take care of our own first.

The only way I see him willing to come here is if he is given PP1 time(5 Fs) or is put in the top 6.

Also money is a factor...if Timmins and Lil are out until January they would have time to move Klingberg but if not they would have to operate on a 20 man roster.

- Santo_44

I'm puzzled as to why you think Toronto should have loyalty to a guy who has played a grand total of 13 games for us - and looked terrible doing so - at the expense of adding a player who would make our team better.

Pretty proud of my Puckdoku results today.

9/9.

One current player, and eight guys who haven't played in the league for 20 years or more.
