Careful on that Fantasy football add..

wide receiver Josh Bellamy was arrested Thursday for his alleged participation in $24 million scheme to defraud the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program.

I personally really question everybody drafting Odell Beckham as their WR1, he's much more of a #2 guy if you ask me.

Bruins owner said they might have to be a budget team....

Be happy you are a leaf fan right now with folks, could get ugly for some teams.

They still have a lot of work to do but this will help. It's mostly going to help unload players. Who knows, maybe increase their value by 10% or so if the Kapanen deal is anything to go on.

Lehner re-ups w/ Vegas and signs a cap freindly deal at $5M per......driving Holtby's asking price down! Would that not cause more teams to court Holtby??? At, say $5.5 AAV x 5yrs, he might be appealing to quite a few teams! Calgary, Toronto, Carolina, Colorado, even Boston and maybe Detroit. Hmmmmmm

Agreed.

Tbh I have no idea what Freddy will get but I think there’s a good chance we are pleasantly surprised like we were with the Kapanen trade.

If we are talking trading Freddy in a normal year we probably don’t get too excited for the return but get decent value.

His 1M salary could bring us back something that might shock us a bit.

Maybe not a draft pick but a good forward locked in to a decent contract that a budget team is willing to trade away?

Trading for Freddy and signing him to a 3 year deal for 5 M is an easy sell when you tell your owner it’s really 4x3.8.

We’ll see.

If we are giving up a forward to make the team better (includes trades, ufa signings, and filling gaps in all positions), should it be Nylander or Marner?

Jacobs is one of the wealthiest and most influencial owners in the NHL. He has a reputation for not overpaying his players - this is not big news, Boston is currently a budget team that has deep pockets and will be a contender. It will probably be a sh!tty off season for free agents in general.

Holtby will be taklng a haircut for sure , had a lousy year. Doubt the Leafs have any interest. Capitals probably really regret trading Grubauer.

I can't franking believe my money is going to pay to keep the Panthers afloat, when this is what Panthers fans can get:


$55 gets you a ticket, buffet and unlimited beer - on a franking Saturday night game!!!

Frank my franking Leafs life.

I remember being like 10 years old watching a leafs game on tv when they were playing florida and they were advertising during a tv timeout 4 tickets (upper bowl) 4 hot dogs and 4 sodas for $22.

That was about 20+ years ago but jeezus what a deal.

Edit: Hell im sure they were running that promotion last year too.

If they HAD to trade one it should be Nylander. Trading Marner is just wrong.

Agree with you Zezel. I would hate to trade Nylander, he scored 31 goals - tied for 15th with Bergeron. If you trade Willie it's not for some middle of the road sh!tbag d-man. At 23 he's going to get better IMO.

Nylander needs to learn how to play more consistent and with a bit more of an edge.

Marner needs to learn how to shoot the damn puck so he can pose even more of a threat.

Both have a ton of natural skill, but are lacking certain things from their games. Good news is they can actually learn how to do it hopefully.

Nylander is a future All Star...Marner is a future HOFer...

Marner has a weak shot.

Nylander has a good shot and can carry the puck, but does nothing else well.

Marner does need to develop a shot that can score from more than 10 feet from the net though.

Looks like krug will be available too.

a rielly trade / sign krug scenario seems a little tempting to me. maybe in a package deal with andersen.

but i think the better play is to keep rielly long-term and pass on krug.
