Souperman got ~as I expected.

Assertion: If all Leaf players will perform like Mickey per dollar next season, the Cup is yours.

Where does the Dermott slot for term and money?? Being at least to my mind more accomplished than soup and D being more valuable than F’s plus younger.

Does KB do a bridge or go longer ?? Gonna be interesting.

I think he’d be looking at Wayne / Joe & Bogo All being gone after next yr. So that could free up some cake going forward.

Good piece by Mirtle in the Athletic on the signing.

- the KHL pressure was there;
- Donato's arb award of 2 x 1.9 was some precedent;
- Soupy n Leafs had agreed to slightly more but Dubie asked to tweak lower last minute and Soupy said yes;
- Soupy loves T.O.;
- Milstein and Dubas are virtually dating.

It's a good deal for a middle six winger.

Lots of coin left for Dermott.

Dermott slides in under the 1.3 ..hopefully leaving a little spare change for add ons.

Next summer will be much of the same. Old vets out ...new vets in. Big issues next summer are Hyman and Andersen. Today, I'd guess they try hard to get Hyman locked up and they'll have to move on from Freddy.

Dubie agreed to more? Of course he did.
Lol
If mickey gets 40 pts or more, its a good deal, its just that cap space is very limited.

Exactly. Try to trade Holl potentially. I just dont see where he will fit unless Lehtonen cant make the team.

If he gets even just 25-30 points it's a good enough deal.

Only way this is bad is if he completely fails and bails to the K

Send them down where exactly? Pretty hard to see how AHL does a season without fans and having them nit play would be horrible. Sandin they might be able to loan to a European team if that can be worked out but I think Robertson has to be on the Leafs playing every day.

Cap space is more limited next year.

Instead of saving 400K this year he chose to save cap next year.

He wants to keep Hyman.

Makes sense.

You are very unrealistic if you think Mikheyev should of got less. But you always are so.

I think this is overblowm

Marner/Matthews/Nylander/Mik/Kerfoot/Vesey//Brodie/Reilly/Dermott/Hyman are all above average skaters
JT/Muzzin/Holl/Boyd are average
Thornton/Spezza/Bogosian are below average.
Simmonds the anti-skate

Its not that bad

Edit: Apparently Simmonds is the slowest skater in the league.

Think Holl is staying, and will be in the top 4 with muzzin to start... Have to see a bunch of games to shake things out, the 5/6 spots are up for grabs
