The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

We solved that in a jiff.

apparently the full presser with keefe sounded less aggressive on broooks than the quote suggested, and apparently keefe was heavily insinuating how temparary this was.

We know that they have to trade big Dick Nick Ritchie and I don't see why a shitty team wouldn't want him tbh. Throw him in a top 6 role and by next deadline you'll get another pick out of him. Maybe a 3rd or 4th from the Leafs as a sweetner and a 2nd or 3rd at next years deadline, depending on how much his stats get juiced from playing top minutes? Seems like a Moneyball approach to acquiring assets.

TLDR: I think both Kyle and Sheldon have a decent idea that Ritchie will be gone and maybe the timeline is pushed up further than expected.

That's because he is on waivers.

Nobody wants to be the dummy that helped the leafs out of a jam. They know we need to move him and they all want to be paid.

Well, glad that the plan for Lilly was basically just a 24-48 hour paper demotion.

As for Brooks, logically it makes sense that since all the teams below the Leafs in waiver priority just passed on him and with Vegas being in a cap jam, they should be able to sneak him through.

But history tells us that any Leaf not named Nick Ritchie will probably get claimed.

Think I read they’re also fairly close to that 50 contract limit which would deter them further i’d imagine.

Bring back mats in 2022-23. He can’t be slower than JT.

New phone wallpaper. Mats and promise if a cup. Nice.

I loved Sundin....

I also marvel at how Sid was celebrated (and rightfully so) for getting his 500th a few nights ago.. and remembering Sundin's 500th... short handed, 4 on 3 in overtime from the flucking blue line.

That was incredible.

Dude’s only 51. Bet he could still play.

It’d also erase the shame of him finishing up his career with the fucking Canucks.
