the leafs prospects pool and lack of picks over next few years is beyond terrible
- drexel


Their picks are dismal but that's what a competitive team does with picks. Prospect wise, they don't have high end d-men prospects but people act like the leafs never had prospects but they do/did and the team does fairly well with them. (Except goalies...its a blackhole for some reason)

They also do fairly well grabbing guys off the scrap heap that turn into something.

GMs got tired of waiting lol They gave the Panthers 5 extra days.

Also wouldn't be surprised if the league wants to complete the trades now since there's a travel day and the league can use some news.

Leafs might have been able to get Markstrom for Liljegren and a 1st.

Plus 31% retained which is Markstrom for 4.15 AAV.

Damn, that might have been a good deal for the Leafs.

Ask your doctor if PLD is right for you.

It wasn't.

Might be alright for Washington. If he's there to play with Ovechkin to get the goal record and be a combined -50.

Nylander would waive for LA.

Doesn't look like Talbot is going back to LA though.

Could be an option for the Leafs as a 1A for 2 AAV or less. Treliving has signed him before so he'd know if his character and style would fit.

Bäckström is done.
They need someone to feed OV pucks for one timers other than Carlson

Talbot did not look to good after the all star game going down the stretch towards the playoff.
that's just me.

I agree but they probably leaned on him too much. If he plays less games (41 or less) then he's still a short term option until they can sign or acquire somebody better next offseason when the Tavares contract expires.

Talbot played 54 games last year and finished with way better numbers than Samsonov. If the Leafs can get .915 SV% for 41 games, it's a win. Woll can, hopefully, play the other half of the games and it should keep them both at their healthiest and at their best.

- Rare_Jewel


The only Panthers who might deserve it are Bobrovsky and Barkov. Bob's been good, but not Conn Smythe worthy. There's been some push for Barkov as well. He's had his moments.

McDavid has just been consistent - 12 points in 5 games against LA; 9 points in 7 against Vancouver; 10 points in 6 games vs. Dallas and 11 in 5 so far against Florida.

He's had 4 or more points 4 times these playoffs.

None of our star players - Matthews, Marner, Nylander or Tavares have ever had more than 3 points in a playoff game let alone 4 times in one year.

No trades announced during the finals, expect a few trade announcement after game 7, 5th period of overtime.

Your definition of "doing well" is interesting.

He's on another level entirely. He deserves that Cup as much as he deserves the Conn Smythe. You can tell he only really cares about the Cup.

Alway find that on page 1 posts. If you delete the very last " symbol from end of the url, and reload the page quotes will work...on pg 1 at least.

Were you quoting a post from page 1?

Fair Cush.

PLD has much lesser line mates in LA than JT. But totally respect that opinion.

TBH not even sure I care much about PLD unless 50% but it was also the chance to get Matt Roy and Brandt Clarke and lose Marner's Cap hit that made the deal more appealing to me.

Still want Roy (UFA) and young Brandt Clarke though....and LAs 1st...over Marner's rising cost. Figured the deal for a "broke playoff" Marner might be more acceptable to another GM if it included a "broke" PLD and I still think PLD as at least a 3C for $4.25 would be great for the Leafs for the next however many years.

- underhill14


I overlooked the 50% retained (probably becauase of my dislike for PLD if I'm being honest) and the other 2 adds would be a nice haul for Marner I just really disklike PLD and haven't seen him do anything anywhere but be a distraction and whiner.

Guess we will see what happens, let's not kid ourselves though pretty likely that Marner, JT, Matthews, Willy Styles are all Leafs on opening night next season.
