TML? More like FML, amirite? Yet Another Off Season Thread

[Jeremy]

they didn't want to sign him to that contract.

Why?

 

[zeke]

Why?

They didn't think it was a good contract to sign.

They didn't think it was a good contract to sign.

Do you know specifically why?

 

[JackBurton]

Dubas didn't want to give Campbell that term. It wasn't the 5 million that he had an issue with.

 

[Habsy]

 

[Artnes]

5 years for a goalie thats inconsistent and injury prone is bad business. Dislike the Murray trade all you want but give me his term and hit over 5x5

 

[zeke]

Do you know specifically why?

They didn't think Campbell was worth it.

 

[Wayward DP]

You better have a good plan B if you are trading Muzzin though. Sandin is the next in line but I dont know if I would trust him with that role just yet

I do know that I would not

 

[Wayward DP]

So why wasn’t he re-signed?

Dubas was unwilling to pay him as much as Edmonton for as long as Edmonton

 

[Artnes]

I do know that I would not

Much like Timmy last year, I would want to see an extended look with Brodie in 5v5 and PK minutes before I dive.

He has the talent to get there just not 100% sure he is there yet

I don't think he has the physical tools to be able to succeed in that role. Hope I'm wrong but time will tell.

 

[GEEMAN]

What is the reason we didn’t re-sign Campbell? I know we didn’t have cap room but couldn’t Dubas had made some space?

Regime didnt want to go 5 years , I wouldnt either

 

[Aberdeen]

 

[hockeylover]

that would be so entertaining.

maybe connor will smile for the first time.

 

[Preston]

I think every team will but fuck me, it's hard to imagine a team more likely to land him than the leafs, assuming he does explore the market.

Man if that happens I might stop becoming a Leafs fan when this era is over. Nothing will ever compare.

 

[MindzEye]

I don't expect us to get connor unless he specifically wants to come to us and really only us.

I'm just happy that Edmonton is finally dealing with the same type of shit we deal with all the time though. Connor coming to Toronto is way more plausible than Auston signing with Arizona state ever was.

 

[Volcanologist]

ha! oh fuck here we go. oilfan and media are going to shit bricks now

 

[LeafOfFaith]

That report is just yumyumyum. Giving it to Edmonton now is going to be so fun. Sure, take Hyman, Barrie, Campbell, whoever. We'll just take McDavid when he's free. Thanks. The shitstorm that this will start will only help matters. Edmonton media and fans will be anxious and pressuring McDavid more and more to extend, and when he won't, they're going to freak, but of course assume the best, and then kill themselves when the worst materializes. Mwah.

 

[hockeylover]

I think only two other teams have less cap space committed the year he becomes UFA than we do.

We're paying three players 13.2-14.1% of the cap right now. Could probably make it work if the desire was there on McDavid's side.

 

[leafman101]

I mean, yeah that’s exactly what the Leafs should do.
