The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

[LeafOfFaith]

Where’s that Keefe coaching success graphic again?

 

[Artnes]

Clifford recalled.

What the Leafs do in the next couple days will be a great indicator of how long they expect Muzzin to be out. If they return to yesterday’s roster, they are back to accruing cap space. If they expect Muzzin to be out until playoffs, there is no reason to accrue cap space, and they might as well call up a full 23 man roster. Scenario A they can add ~$1m in cap hits at the deadline, scenario B they can add ~$6m. In either case there’s no pro-rating contracts, I’ve already done the math on that.

they can add ~$6m.

 

[Preston]

Forsberg has been my dream acquisition since last years deadline. That guy is a fucking rockstar.

 

[LeafGm]

Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Forsberg - Tavares - Nylander


…would be an OK, just OK top two lines.

 

[Habsy]

First round exit

 

[leafman101]

Knies/Robertson, Hirvonen and 22 1st for Forsberg (50% retained)
Mrazek and 22 2nd for Fleury (50% retained)

Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Forsberg-Tavares-Nylander
Mikheyev-Kampf-Engvall
Kerfoot-Spezza-Kase
Simmonds

Rielly-Brodie
Muzzin-Liljegren
Sandin-Holl
Dermott-Lyubushkin

Fleury
Campbell

and they still have $3 mill in cap space.

 

[zeke]

Clifford recalled.

- Earl

Yep. The clifford recall looks good on us pulling a kucherov here.


And again - that $6m in space can actually be quadrupled with max retention.

Gio!!!!

 

[leafman101]

Kerfoot, Dermott and 23 1st for Gio and McCann.

 

[Artnes]

Back to Petey tonight. Take the over

 

[Preston]

I knew he looked familiar

 

[Preston]

I honestly think Engvall is the best fit on the JT line on the current roster. But hopefully this works. Kerf should be on the 4th line for Pierre tho.

 

[Artnes]

I dont mind Sandin - New Polak. It will give him a little freedom to roam.

I know people like to point out that he got caught flat footed on the one goal the other night but his foot speed is not Polak bad

 

[leafman101]

Yeah, his skating isn't bad. The breakaway was more due to his puckhandling ability than his skating.

is Holl healthy?

 

[BG]

Yeah, his skating isn't bad. The breakaway was more due to his puckhandling ability than his skating.

I imagine he rarely touched a puck in Arizona, aside from pulling it out of the net.

I'm not gonna judge the guy on a single game or single play, but my eye test found him rather unimpressive. but, of course, sample size caveats.

 

[Artnes]

I'm not expecting much more than a replacement level third pairing guy. If they need someone to go boom boom come playoff time maybe he finds a spot otherwise I'm fine with rotating him in and out
