He’s useless at $7mil.

If he made $4mil, you wouldnt hear a peep from me about him.

Do you not want to win a cup, or??? Cause the Leafs will never win with him in the lineup. The window is now, can’t waste another year.

If Nylander gets traded in 4 years, that doesn't make you right..

Again, those are your opinions.

The idea that a young player with Nylander's ceiling could be signed for 4 million is absurd. Is Nylander overpaid? Sure... That's a result of the situation the leafs were in with 3 high talent players with contracts nearly expiring together. He's not nearly as overpaid as Marner is.

Keller and Ehlers are good comparables, even Hischier.. and Nylander is close to in the middle of them.

Again, Phil Kessel won back to back cups in this league... It's not about one player. It's when you pitch opinions as fact that you'll start to get the Max/Uggie comparisons. Your opinions are not fact...

If Nylander gets traded in the next 12-24 months, I'll give you full credit..

Why all of a sudden change your mind???

Cause I’m right, that’s why. He is overpaid. Nice for you to finally admit it. You’s always come around eventually.

Today -
Comtois / Terry / Steel / Jones / Lundestrom...

But if we're going on who's going to be better in 3 yrs..

Then Terry / Comtois / Lundestrom / Steel / Jones.

- dozerD10


So I'd take it Terry and Comtois are the ones you'd rather keep. Makes sense that one would need to be included in a trade for Bill Ny then.

He's had a couple odd injuries. Freaky really... But he's plenty good and on a not good team ... he plays tough minutes against top comp. only signed for 4.1 for 2 more yrs..


Leaf fans clamoring for Gudas and these other stiffs but crumb on Josh.. Give your head a shake.

- dozerD10


I'd very very easily take Manson over Gudas.

Two of the worst trades made in the majors in the last decade have to be Fisher for Sanchez and Biagini (the clip below is from Fisher's first game as a Jay i believe) and the Hap for McKinney and Drury (both are no longer Jays)

I don’t think he’s overpaid. I also never said it was a bargain.


I’m all aboard the #TradeWillie train, though. Give me Pietrangelo and another top-4 D.

He's missed 4 ((frank)ing 4!) tonight. One off his glove when he was standing under it waiting for it.

That's you're takeaway from me saying he's moderately overpaid, it was a situational signing, and I would give him that number again? That equates to me going from he has the best contract in the league to he's absurdly overpaid?

You are in full uggie mode now, I'm trying to give you some credibility but once I start feeling like I'm having to yank said credibility back out of the toilet its over.

Someone doesn't hate Nylander with you, it doesn't have spiral into this kind of over the top dramatic preteen mess.

He's an embarrassment - the only reason he is still on the team is Atkins and Shapiro don't want to own up to trading two good pitchers for this sack of sh!t.

I’ll keep jumping back on... until he re-signs with the Blues or signs with a different team.

That is a awful trade for the Leafs. People's obsession with Manson is nuts, he's not been good recently.

Nylander scores 30 goals in a shortened season and they want to trade him, it's insane.

- Archaic


Trading Nylander is fine, for a top-4 Dman and a good one at that.

If that is not the return, then keep him. The idea that you can't barely give him away is beyond ridiculous.

Fwiw, I don’t need your credibility..

You keep tossing UG and Max (still better than Santo) comparisons around like I’m supposed to be insulted or something.. 😒

I’m not a fan of Willy, I was at first but he soured on me. You do you, I’ll do me.

So is Pietrangelo worth it at $9M if cap doesn’t go up for 3 or 4 years and only goes up slowly after that? At some point he slows down but $9M becomes ok in a bigger cap world.

He isn't and they shouldn't be looking that way.

I love the guy but I can't validate the money, with or without Nylander. It's a different variation of the same structure issues to me. 🤷‍♂️

If he can play 60 minutes a night I will shift to problem solved pay the man. Until then we still need two other pairings to touch the ice.
