Maybe they promised him NIL money!!:sarcasm:

Either way, hopefully management will help line up some solid endoresements.
 
If this isn't a sign that the players and management feel like the team is on the precipice of going deep, I don't know what is.

Giordano is still a good defenseman and could easily command $3m on the market.
Him taking a gigantic discount to stay speaks volumes in my opinion.

I think this means Spezza is also coming back at league min for a swan song season.

I think this may be the most meaningful signing of Dubas' career.
Not just for the player and the value, but the meaning behind convincing the player to sign this kind of a deal.

I disagree on the Spezza thing. I think we need a faster, more skilled 4th line. I don’t think you bring him back as a player. If you do he’s the 13th forward. But I rather have Robertson or Steeves or Joey Anderson get their shot now
 
I hope not.

Not sure why Leafs brass would give up on a 22 year highly talented D man. They can stick him on the Marlies next year if he doesn't make the team

Are you sure about that? He’s been with the team for 3 years now. I don’t think he’s waiver exempt anymore
 
Incredible deal. Looks like either Muzzin or Sandin is on the way out. Holl can stay as long as he's the clear #7 and no higher.

Regarding Sandin, I'm actually not sure what his waiver status is. Maybe some genius out there can help out

Sandin is a liability on the Ice due to his foot speed and size

No.

Game 4. Tampa won the opening draw, dumped it in the corner (Holls) laid a big hit, got possession and put it in the net on the first shot.

This team has skill, they need will.

Gio wants to win!

Hutch w much do you think he's going to get as a ppg UFA?
I'm sure we can't afford him and don't want to revive that history
Lol he did say he likes the smoke. Nylander leaves in a trade and Kadri signs as a free agent plus what Nylander brings back on a deal

Love it!
 
Great signing

As far as spezza he will sign another minimum contract. When he gets his 5 points for 1000 he will be paper shuffled to the marlies and will accept some sort of management position with the leafs. He then gets his ring under that position 😜
