I wouldn’t ; Tanev is easily the better player . Additionally it would be shocking if he didn’t retire/ get put on long term injury reserve the last year or 2 ( wink wink nudge nudge Robidas island ) .

Have the Leafs made the SCF in your lifetime? I can't even remember their last ECF. Sharks have done that plenty in the last 15 years.Not a Sharks fan trying to chirp

I think it needs to be said and repeated, the city...GTA...is not as attractive as our collective confirmation bias would have us believe. It's the not the same place as - insert the # of years here - it used to be, and when players choose Edmonton or Boston or the state of Florida over us, its as Montour implies, more than just about the club you're joining.
Couple that with our "winning tradition" and our very supportive media, well...Is there any wonder why the future looks so dried up at times?

I don’t like the leafs. But Montour kind of saved the leafs here. His contract sucks and it’s too long and he’s a pumpkin who had a good year. He’s due to go back to what he has been for most of his career

They've literally missed the playoffs 5 years in a row while being the worst team and worst run organization in that time frame, prior to those 5 years they were the biggest playoff chokers in the league and that's what that core is remembered for.
It's just very silly for a Sharks fan to try and throw shade at another team, when they themselves have 0 cups and their best team/roster of all time is remembered for choking every year in the playoffs.
If it was like a Florida Panthers fan who's team has actually won, and won recently makes sense you have the right to chirp, they had their failures for many years, deep runs and finally broke through. But are we seriously saying losing in the finals like 10 years ago is an accomplishment ?
I'm sure you guys won't be celebrating losing the 2024 final in 2034, so not really something to brag about.

He'll make a total shit signing again soon enough. Already salivating at the cap space next year.

Pajama boys don’t even want Toronto anymore.
First ROR, then Skinner, now Montour. And I’m probably forgetting some.
You could saying it’s all about “winning”. And it is partly, but like I been saying for years the toxic Toronto media market is also a huge reason why players don’t want to play for the Leaf’s.

Toronto media is the biggest reason why they never win. Nobody in their right mind would want to play under that insane spotlight. They were a bottom feeder and the media STILL ran their best player out of town and shit all over him (Kessel). It’s happened a million times.
Play in Seattle and have an enjoyable, quiet life or play in Toronto and have every breath you take looked at under a microscope. I know which one I’d pick too.

Seattle has one of the best tax situations for NHL players. They have no state tax just like TB, Florida, Dallas, Vegas and Nashville
