Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

[legoalie]

ROR has already seen enough. He knows from experience what a Cup contender looks like and he now knows that the Leafs aren't that team.

hey but they garnished a lot of respect in the hand shake line..

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

The nurse deal is 2 mil overpaid but they are worse without him

how is Purse worth 7 million but you don't think Dubois is?

 

[Habsy]

Why bother asking? There's never been consistency.

He must have been so stressed that he was a major prick to his wife and kids. That was a contrite man.

The Leafs will resign him.

If he takes a year off, and its sounding like he should to repair some a damage, he'll realize he loves his family and hockey and Arizona it is. Anonymity.

Sure he is , he was a lock to make Team Canada

Stiffs are making 6 mil

Take him out and replace him with nothing , Oilers dont make the playoffs

He isnt perfect but is vital on that D

Nurse is as close to useless as I've seen recently. From what I can tell watching him closely over the last couple of months and before the playoffs, he doesn't do anything well.

Maybe people think because of his look and size, that he was a first rounder, and that he has some sisters who play sports, that he is actually in some way effective.

He may be suitable as a $1,000,000 sixth defenceman. And then without the pressure, he could maybe be effective in that role.

Eric Tulsky would be one of the first people I'd interview for the GM job.

Super, super smart guy.

Super, super smart guy.

Nearly 25-years ago when John Henry bought the Red Sox first move was to try & pry Moneyball Bill Beane from A’s… like fellow hedge fund owners of NJD & Canes who are amongst the most heavily dedicated to running hockey ops via analytics, Tulsky is a Henry type manager, but will Dubas’ experience as GM & potential availability be a roadblock?

 

[Rolex]

Why not just hire Brad Pitt ?

 

[Habsy]

Dubas isn't available.

 

[CH1]

Neither is Brad Pitt

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

The nurse deal is 2 mil overpaid but they are worse without him

Nurse is overpaid by a hell of a lot more than $2 million. $2 million is about all he's actually worth for what he brings to the table. He contributes nothing in the offensive zone that Kulak or Bouchard don't and his defensive hockey IQ would have to aspire to be considered room temperature.

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Going, going, as good as gone.

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

The NHL is now a safe haven for fascists and homophobes.

Leafs need to hire Bergy. That would be the chef's kiss to this season.

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

why do we expect Russian players to denounce their country/culture? Would we expect Kadri to denounce muslim terrorism, Quinton Hughes to denounce Israeli aggression, Zibanejad to denounce Iran?

how hard must it be for him to know his cousin is a better player than he is
