Mike Augello: How Former Leafs Fared (Or Are Faring) In The Playoffs – Eastern Conference

fist

The real stat is how many points he has in games 5,6,7 of a series, when it really counts! And I believe the answer is ONE.

Gotta get to games 5, 6, and 7.

I’ve been doing lots of ice off pike fishing

So much fun. It’s going to be a great summer up in the north!

What kind of a loser is proud of catching northern pike. No much of a challenge at all. You can catch them with almost anything especially when you fish them in the right conditions. Just have to make sure you have strong enough line.

Bruh.. not everything has to be about your hatred for me. Leave some wiggle room for doubt.

Try to be cool.

How much have you had to drink tonight?

Maybe the Leafs make a pitch for Stolarz next season. Had a really good GAA this year.

Help me out here.

Which Canadian team do I root for?

Which team do Leafs fans find least objectionable?

The Northern Texas Oilers or the Vancouver Burnitdowns?

No rod the bod in Toronto

I'd like to see triple OT. Hopefully the Vancouver fire department and police have been planning for the riot.

Going into this summer the Leafs are committed to paying their top 5 players already under contract 61.6% of their cap total.

By comparison the teams remaining in the Stanley Cup chase pay less of their budget on their top 5 contracts (% of total cap)

Rangers 50.3%
Florida 48.8%
Dallas 50%
Edmonton 47.6%
Vancouver 44.5%

Some teams (eg Florida) have important contracts to negotiate this summer but it should not significantly change the % of budget allocated to the top 5 skaters on the team.

I am not a fan of moving Marner. But, perhaps, there is a need to align the Leafs salary structure for their top players to be closer to the numbers we see from other successful teams.

It is entirely possible that a player can have a perfectly valued contract but, the teams combination of contracts does not fit with the overall needs of the team.

I am looking at other teams that have the cap space and might be willing to take on Marner at a 12.9% cap hit. And, he will need a new contract next year. If a team trades for him he immediately becomes their top paid player and the bench mark for player agents preparing their asks on other team players.

Tavares' contract is all cap hit hit and little actual salary dollars. Contrary to what some folks are saying, I think Tavares is a good and easy fit for multiple rebuilding teams (San Jose, Chicago, Anaheim).

Tavares retires as a Leaf and Stamkos retires in Tampa.

Any writer who says otherwise is purely speculating for clickbait purposes.
