The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

Any guys out there that might be cheap but could fill some depth?

we could use another Center I think. Probably another defender. Reilly really made Schenn look good. Anyone out there like that? Hamonic? Is he any good?
Hamonic extended in Ottawa and no, he isn't
 
What are they upset about?

I don't like the signing either, but in a few day period where they added a 30yr old guy who finished top 10 in Norris voting twice and two more top 6 forwards, all on 1 yr deals......if your main talking point right now is about spending a few hundred K too much on the heavyweight champion of the league, you might need to just shut the fuck up.

Also apparently the recapture 35+ clause was made to go away by Pridham, so...really how bad is this?

It's not good.

But it's also not bad.

It's a minor inconvenience at worst. He's a bad 4th liner who is the closest thing the NHL has to being a weapon of mass destruction. Plays 8 minutes a game, throws 3-4 hits, chirps and occassionally assaults someone.
 
Methinks Tre isn't going to try and galaxy-brain the league/refs into giving the Leafs a higher percentage of penalties. We're absolutely going to take a tonne of penalties this season, majors too. Refs are going to be much happier "managing" our games.

Its not even a bottom 10 deal handed out this offseason IMO, it means very little and he probably does something to get a 20 game suspension anyways, cuz Leaf now.
 
I mean the common consensus league wide is that AM and MM are whimps and JT is less inspiring than wonderbread so they got a guy who can mix shit up a bit.

bert and domi will also be good for our pansy heroes and soft spoken leader.

Our dressing rooms needed more guys with less teeth.

I’m the #1 Treliving hater around here and I hate the Reaves & Kampf deals with every fibre of my being.

That said, he’s definitely done a fair bit to balance out the other side of the ledger by letting Kerfoot walk and signing Bertuzzi & Domi to good deals.

The Klingberg deal I’m iffy on, but real offense from our back end has unquestionably been an issue for a bit now. As long as Klingberg’s not another Barrie in that he’s a complete gong-show defensively and gets most of his points by cannibalizing Rielly’s power-play minutes.
