Around the League 2019-2024 Edition

[LeafOfFaith]

I just remember how signing Tavares cost us Nylander and Rielly.

 

[BG]

Vancouver has just 22 regulation victories in the last 82 games.

Tanking sandbaggers.

 

[LeafGm]

remember when the Leafs were in trouble cause we couldn't resign him?

Yeah, Leaf nation had a brief love-affair with this guy. We’re suckers for toothless plugs who hit and smash stuff.

And I’m pretty sure the Leafs offered Clifford a better deal than he ended up getting in free agency, and he turned it down.

Simmonds >>

 

[trujaysfan]

Any harm in claiming him now and when mrazek/mikky come back we try and put him in the AHL?

 

[leafman101]

What I don't get about Benning is he has made some great additions up front, and the worst possible additions to the D.

 

[Preston]

Well he had to get a horse shit d to get a solid ass forward.

But again... OEL has been their best d by a good amount this year. I know it's not saying much but yeah.. Not gonna knock him for his performance despite not being worth the AAV.

 

[zeke]

Miller was a sweet addition no doubt.

But I'm thinking the credit for everyone else goes to their amateur scouting staff. They've been very good in the draft.

 

[LeafGm]

Any harm in claiming him now and when mrazek/mikky come back we try and put him in the AHL?

Yes.

He’s not very good, his $1M salary couldn’t be entirely buried in the AHL, and I’d rather give the reps to someone like Semyonov.

 

[trujaysfan]

Yes.

He’s not very good, his $1M salary couldn’t be entirely buried in the AHL, and I’d rather give the reps to someone like Semyonov.

375k + min salary can be buried? Is that not 1.125 this season or is capfriendly wrong

 

[JackBurton]

Tanking sandbaggers.

It's fine they "Won a round".

 

[MindzEye]

It's fine they "Won a round".

Ah yes, the promised land (aka, the second round)

What everyone plays for.

 

[JackBurton]

Ah yes, the promised land (aka, the second round)

What everyone plays for.

It became a massive accomplishment once the Leafs stopped getting there.

 

[worm]

It became a massive accomplishment once the Leafs stopped getting there.

and vice versa

 

[MindzEye]

and vice versa

When was winning a round ever the goal?

 

[Deckie007]

 

[Deckie007]

Also, remember when the media was saying the 2020 Canucks were the new championship Blackhawks? I remember.

 

[MindzEye]

Winnipeg, buffalo, Calgary, Vancouver....all have been proclaimed to have better rebuilds than us at various points over the last 5 years

 

[zeke]

 

[Preston]

Just a sad group of teams in Canada really. The one mega talented one consists of a bunch of bitches that lose in series against Montreal and Columbus. Yikes.
