Leaf Rumours

A 60 point pace is what I consider to be lighting it up at this stage in his career. I hope he can continue that, though I acknowledge that for young players consistency's often the hardest part.
 
with a true power forward on a line with him and Kessel I said he could be a 70-80 point centre. I'm talking Perry or Ryan though
 
It looks like (per Toronto Sun) you guys won't be signing Sweatt as he's asking for too much money or his agent is playing hardball. Wonder why he's trying that with just an ok college career under his belt. Seems like an obnoxious kid.

No big deal. I had asked Scott Norton, Sweatt's agent If they were optimistic a deal would be reached when the trade first went down and the answer he gave me was really non-committal ("Too early to tell"). He then said that they'd received a "generous offer" from the Leafs but wanted to test the market. Now Norton is saying on twitter that they never said they wouldn't sign with the Leafs.
 
No video on this guy at all. Tant pis. I love it when guys stand up to the beast(NHL). Not that it ever results in anything all that good for the individual, but its fun to see them try.
 
I expect a 60ish point pace from Tyler this year.

Anything closer to a 70pt pace or higher I'd consider him "lighting it up".
 
I have got Bozak down for something along the lines of 18-37-55 next season, but it wouldn't surprise me to see him post lower totals. I'm cautiously optimistic you might say. Let's see how he adjusts to the physical grind that is the marathon of the NHL regular-season schedule and to increased focus from opposition checkers. If he manages to bump himself into the 60 point range I would be over the moon and that type of production would go a long way to making the Leafs a playoff contender.
 
Just remember that after Matty was traded, and Bozak moved into his spot, Bozak actually posted 21pts in 26gms - a 66pt pace.


And let's remember that Bozak played pretty much a full year last year of pro hockey, and was still going pretty good at the end there.

I recently reported San Jose is looking to go for it all this season and would be willing to trade for Tomas Kaberle even if it meant for just one season. Ryane Clowe or Devin Setoguchi could be players San Jose is willing to part with in exchange for Kaberle.

I think the Leafs would prefer the younger, potentially higher-producing Setoguchi. Although Clowe is certainly a Burke player, I think we need to shoot for a younger guy who has point potential above the 50s.
