TNT kicks of their broadcast season tonight, but they should have been doing the games on opening night. Ray Ferraro doing two games is unique, but that was highlight of ESPNs entire day.

I'll never leave Ontario so I'll have to take your word for it.
I think the Leafs and Utah would make good trading partners. I like all three of their RHD better than any one of the Leafs. Something around Marner + Liljegren for Schmaltz + Sergachev with whatever picks and prospects to balance it out.
Utah might end up being the next Colorado where the team relocates right before something special finally happens.

They have some good young talent not sure they’d have need for Liljegren, but Marner might look at it if he becomes a UFA.
Outside of the Toronto region, Ontario is a beautiful province, but Utah has a unique landscape.

You know what, good for Ottawa. Stability in the crease with a pretty good goalie. And they don't have to worry all season whether or not he is going to re-sign with them.
Fitting he and Swayman got the exact same AAV.

Utah just traded for Serg as a part of a big blue line overhaul
They’re not going to trade him nor do they need Marner

That’s a good deal for Ottawa. They have a top 10 goalie locked up for the next 5 years. I know people on here think it’s too rich but what do you expect Ottawa to do? They needed this so badly. It sucks for us obviously but I have to admit this is a big piece for them.
Also with plans on a new arena, although their fan base is full of morons this is good for Ottawa in general. They unfortunately have a bright future

I can't believe how right I was about this. It is going to end up being a positively horrendous deal. Luckily for Ottawa it is only 4 years (they did well limiting the term). Ullmark is not going to be the answer for Ottawa.

Nazem Kadri book recounts Mike Babcock's behaviour coaching Toronto Maple Leafs | TSN
Former Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nazem Kadri's book "Dreamer: My Life On The Edge" delves into coach Mike Babcock's handling of players.
www.tsn.ca
Marner confirmed the incident in 2019 after the Maple Leafs fired Babcock.
Kadri, who played for Toronto for a decade, said in his book that he and teammate Tyler Bozak "stormed into Babcock's office and laid into him."
"He tried to defend what he'd done, to explain the thought process behind the exercise," Kadri recalled in the book.
"There wasn't much he could say, and in the end I think he realized he's made a mistake. After that he apologized to Mitch. We'd pretty much made him.
"You just don't do that to a rookie."
But he disagrees with some of Babcock's tactics then. Kadri wrote that Babcock asked Toronto's trainers to rank players based on their level of effort in the gym and talked about those assessments player by player in front of the entire team.
"The whole point was to embarrass guys, and it made for some awkward conversations between the players and the training staff," Kadri wrote.
"Once you break that trust, it's hard to come back."
He’s a top 10 goalie. Ottawa needed a top goalie for a while and now they have one

He was in Boston (at least until the playoffs started). He most certainly will not be in Ottawa.

Throw in Tanev, Robertson, Minten, Niemela and a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and they can give us Guenther too.

Overall, where results matter they have had better results than Leafs since expansion. Is it 3 trips to the finals, with 1 win?

They were amped.
Bruins tough guy is Pastrnak now?
Seattle were Swiss cheese.
Chicago looked old in game 1.

Utah just traded for him, so they are not likely to move him. I think he's a bit over rated to be honest, and well overpaid. If I were targeting a RD, it wouldn't be him.
8.25m for Ullmark before he even plays a game for them? Yikes. That could turn out badly.
Also, if the reports are true, Shesterkin is insane. A goalie in a position to be paid top dollar should be trying to get as much term as possible.
That's guaranteed money for a position where things could change very quickly.
