As an old fart who loves the outdoors, I would probably love it there.

As a young multi-millionaire elite athlete with an instagram audience, not so much.

Not to mention, no way his succubus is going to agree to a move to Utah. The Mormons will slap magic panties on her and excommunicate both of them for witchcraft and unholy sexual congress.

It was your fly over state comment that was moronic.

Well, its expensive for the regular season but when you reach the playoffs what good is Marner anyways?


He needs to go. Maybe then trading for a defenseman like Morrissey for Marner.

Toronto needs a change like that.

No thanks to Kane, as to Hyman, I was sorry the Leafs lost him, however they do have Matthew Knies who is 21, while Hyman is 31. There will be some changes and I can see the Leafs adding some grit.

And hyman is in the second round while knies is on the links. Leafs only have a few more years before the window closes. Kane would be perfect for the leafs… at his best in the post season.

Marner is 27 and Pietroangelo is 34.

Gotta be age 26-29 for it to make sense.

What do you think a team is worth that hasn't made the playoffs in 13 seasons? You know a team that has drafted in the top ten 9 times in the past 13 seasons including two first overall picks and 2 second overall picks but is still a giant bag of poop? Must be a pretty (frank)en dumb team
- winsix

Not as big a bag of poop as a team who hasnt won a cup in 57 years.

I'm going to fade into obscurity until at least the draft...

... but I'm still (frank)ing angry (and hungover).

Sammy cost us that game and the series.

You cannot be in an airtight, defense-first series, a series that has had low scoring throughout, and cough up a weak short-side goal like that.

I've said it a million times on here: Sammy is fundamentally flawed in his setup and execution, relying on his athletic ability (which is very good) to make all of his saves.

Every save has excess movement, which is chance for leakage and rebounds, and because of his poor fundamentals, he cost us that game.

- gravyface



This is a ridiculous take. Was Sammy good? No. Could our boys maybe ONCE strap it on and perform in an elimination game? No.

To lay the blame entirely on the goalie because he didn't pitch an overtime game 7 shutout is ridiculous.

The team CAN'T SCORE in the playoffs.

Sammy also can’t make a save in the playoffs.

Like he’s been brutal in his playoff career. On the Leafs and Caps.

The funny thing is the caps gave him away for free as a controlled 24 year old goalie.

Leafs tried to give him away for free this season.

Soon teams will catch on, he just does not have it.

He only had to kill 9 minutes and let in a short-side goal. It wasn't a hard shot. It was poor positioning. On the winner, he could have came out and played the puck. He lost his concentration and it cost us a series. Yes, Marner was the number 1 culprit for letting his check get by him, but the comedy of errors cost the Leafs a playoff round.

Not your lawn… your fairway ‘ cause thats where your leafs will be unless you are willing to trade for what you need. 57 years, pathetic for a franchise like toronto.

I agree with that, but he is not the main reason we are out. Part of the reason, sure. Even prime Carey Price couls not have carried this team if we only score 1-2 goals a game.

The only way signing Edmundson is a good idea is in a very short, very cheap contract.

The man's body is broken (chronic back problems), he was great in the playoffs for Toronto since he's a gamer but you kinda flip a coin if he's gonna feel good enough to play at this point.

- Scabeh


He was $867,500 this year. He filled a need for the Leafs this year but not sure he was good enough to get a raise.

Rielly was poor on the GWG. Just go back and watch the play. He very clearly didn't give maximal effort to accelerate back on that so as the Dman in position to make a play on that puck, I would blame him by far the most.

No. Lilly showed time and again that he can’t handle the size of the Bruin forwards. That’s not going to change. Any team with big forwards is going to throw him around.
Hughes on Vancouver is small but has found ways to still thrive, not the case with Lilly.

- Bullot


Lilly as our 6D playing with Benoit will be fine. Need a puck mover to play with Benoit, and big physical puck-movers are not cheap.

Trading a guy like Knies would be a Chicago thing to do. So I can see why you would not think it is dumb.

No? Then just to discuss rape culture? That’s kind of a weird thing to bring to a hockey blog - but hey, whatever floats your boat.

Leafs need to go visit the Islanders. Trade that should be looked at:

Marner & Rielly + Leafs first rounder to the NYI.

Sorokin & Dobson + Islanders first rounder to Tor.

Why? Roy isn't a fan of Sorokin. Lou drafted Marner.

Islanders need offense. Leafs need a younger right shot defender.
