They're actually doing an autopsy on the dog. Apparently it had some recent surgery, and was in a closet in the bathroom. Hopefully the poor thing didn't starve to death in there

You (frank)ers don't sound nearly as excited about these trades as me!

Balanced lines with identities. Some good depth upfront. Best top-4 blueline we've had in decades. Depth guys 5-8.

And Stollie-the-(frank)in'-goalie with don't-(frank)-with-playoff-Woll running back up.

No excuses ...the big boys have to turn up.

Laughton will have 20 games to prove he’s a 3C.

Willy will also have 20 games to show he can play in the top 6. Holmberg seems to bring the best out of him, maybe he say “backcheck!!!” In Swedish, and Willy reacts to it?

You're really bad at this. Just follow my line ups.

Laughton > Holmberg

Domi > McMann as a distributor, 2nd line needs a passer and digger, not another shooter.

Benoit is okay at best on his natural side which is LD.

Lorentz plays perfectly at 4LW and has the necessary size. Jarnkrok get buzz on the 4th with Kampf and Lorentz, might add a bit a scoring.

This is the way I think is should go:

Knies, Matthews, Marner
Domi, Tavares, Nylander
McMann, Laughton, Robertson
Lorentz, Kampf, Jarnkrok
Holmberg

McCabe, Tanev
Rielly, Carlo
OEL, Hawktuah
Benoit, Myers

Stoli
Woll

- underhill14

You’re missing Reaves on the 4th line.















Just not very much.

Leafs are very good ...finance that Porsche Cushy.

Sorry been driving so listening to TSN radio. But not online but this comment made me howl. 🤣

I like what Tre did today a lot despite me saying don’t sell the farm to me he only sold some of it. Minten isn’t going to be an all star IMO and the fact they got 2 guys with retention and term was a great get IMO.

Won’t miss Timmons or Dewar and it’s hilarious that Dubas went and got them. 🤣

Oh and the best thing - Willy is still a leaf. Shocker. lol

I want to resign Marner, but he shouldnt get more then Rantanen. He will though, due to Leafs.
- Archaic


Same but I’m more hopeful that Tre plays hard ball and if he doesn’t think it’ll happen calls Marner’s bluff and lets his walk.

Unless Marner leads them to a cup this year or very very close and goes on a tear come playoffs.

I agree. I’m pretty happy after also listening to other players talk about Laughton. He’s going to be a gamer.

Hopefully the top guys show up.

If Matthews is half injured going into playoffs I’m going to be pissed.

For sure, but Rants is the better player. Significantly better when you consider the playoffs.

100000% accurate no matter what the head of the Marner fan club says.

Ill be the first to kick Marner out if he was another poopty playoff but there is no way rantanen is a better player then Marner. He looks better under curtain circumstances ie playing with McKinnon, makar, landeskog. Marner has the ability to make other players around him better. Just can’t get out of his own head to do it in the playoffs.

I would take Rant over Nylander, it would be tough though. Rant plays similar but heavier which I like.

I wouldn't take Rant over Marner. Even though Marner's softness bugs me, they bring very different things to the table.

Rantanen, Matthews, Marner

...would be a ridiculous line.

No.
Theyve already proven it. We didnt trade a 1st to put him on the 4th line. Use your head.
Willie, our future captain will be in the top 6. Until marner is let go, then he'll be on the top line

Who cares what line he’s on? What matters is how effective the line is.

I honestly don't think a gimpy fading Marchand moves the needle much, but Florida is already stacked, so I still don't like it.

Happy about Laughton and Carlo. Not blown away, but still better than I thought it would end up being as 3pm inched closer.

Color me optimistic.

He's been a 3C his whole career. This is not a tryout. It's his job.
