I guarantee you that is not the plan.
They didnt hand out the biggest contract in the teams history just to piss him off and demand trade.
Nothing positive for the leafs comes from that

Wait for it….




NYLANDER PLAYING MORE RESPONSIBLE HOCKEY!!



That’s the trade off.


You guys always do this

Ya his career stats aren’t as good as I thought…

Mogilny stayed good late into his career. Datsyuk too.

There are players who did, 100% agreed, however far more fade off so the odds aren’t in his favour until he hits the age to begin to prove otherwise.

Ya we differ entirely.

I think Mitch is exactly the type of player who’ll be good for a long time. Nylander should be able to do the same, but he was never as good as Mitch.

Interesting. Nylander has more points than his linemates combined . Imagine if Bertuzzi actually goes on a heater.

Cherry picking stats is fun

Expected +/- Giveaways Takeaways
Matthews 18.2 34 53
Nylander 13.6 28 57
Marner 12.8 48 39


Playing with Matthews over the last 2 years skews his wingers' stats in a positive manner

Playing with marner also helps matthews goal stats.

Willies been on fire this year for sure.

I’ll never, ever, understand the Marner comparisons at all.

Marner has been nominated for Selkes. Marner is simply on another level both offensively, and especially defensively. People see things however they want I guess. Nylander isn’t middle of the pack defensively, he’s poor. Marner making one bonehead play doesn’t negate all the good stuff he does. His +/- reflects that.


Marner 41 hits, 43 blocks +15

Nylander 22 hits, 18 blocks (+/-)0

Matthews 53 hits, 59 blocks +18

Players today are taught to stickcheck instead of bodycheck because it’s a better outcome.

Watch Matthews stickcheck - probably the best in the league.

Absolutely, just like playing with Nylander helps Matthews assist totals

He was on fire offensively before he signed his contract.

He’s been mid since.

And any fires that are on him, were set by Keefe. Whom I suspect is getting annoyed with always having to waste time and energy starting fires. Especially since Nylander has 11.5 million reasons to be motivated already.

Ya he’s unreal at it. All three are good at it. But guys still need to battle for pucks sometimes, and that outcome isn’t usually good, except for Matthews sometimes.

Rogan platforms some people who are problematic, in my opinion.

Yeah, yeah, everyone can skip the free speech angle, let's hear what he has to say, both sides, just curious, yada yada yada.



Dude has had Jordan Phucking Peterson on like 8 times. 😂 😂 😆

Pretty sure we'll never agree on Rogan like we do on Leafs hockey.

Funny, Brett Weinstien on your list is right.. Most of his views are very left leaning but he was attacked by the leftist mob and now is suddenly right leaning.

I didn't check the rest of your list but that one stood out for me.. Likely a good many of the "right" leaning on that list are closer to center. But if you are not with the left you are far right.

Sam Harris is another
