Either way he's on the last year of his deal like Nylander...
The Leafs are either losing a 27 year old Nylander or a 34 year old Brodie...
Pretty easy choice who to move.
We shouldn't be losing either. And we're entering Brodie's age 33 season, not 34.

We paid a great deal more for bertuzzi and domi and bunting is the best of the bunch
Did you forget a sarcasm emoji?

Bunting had his value inflated around the league because he had the benefit of playing on one of the best lines in the NHL for 2 years and put up half decent numbers as a result. His production plummeted when he was not on the first line.

He is not even in the same league as Bertuzzi or Domi.

He's 34 when his contract runs up...

And at 34 at the time of his contract running up, Brodie is not someone the Leafs should rely on for the long-term success.

Brodie has never been that great of a partner for Rielly. Schenn was more effective. I would have kept Schenn if for no other reason than he was such a good fit with Morgan.

We're not talking about when his contract runs up. We're talking about next season, when Brodie will be 33, and we need somebody with his quality and defensive impact.

And the reason Nylander might be traded is because NHL teams look at more than just a one-year outlook.

Zeke you really need to improve your disguise.

Domi may not throw a lot of hits but he still forechecks hard, those 2 don't always go hand in hand. He's also just a big asshole who does not put up with people's bullshit, something we don't have enough throughout the lineup. Also very good at chirping and rattling players that don't play with an edge like he does.

Does anybody remember Domi bullying Johnsson every game we played the habs that 1 season? LOL like I swear Domi made it his mission to pick on him all game back when he was on Matthews' line.

Domi is a solid piece if he avoids that stupidness

Being terrified of physical play and “avoiding that stupidness” is the reason why Toronto has been such a catastrophic failure in the playoffs.

Small, slow finesse players might be ok in women’s hockey but they’re useless for the NHL.

I think it's a pretty big assumption that Max is not going to play a little different for the Leafs than he did other teams. He's living his dream. He's got his Tavares pajamas on now.

Sounds exactly like the Corey Perry situation.

Tough forward who plays with an edge and a proven playoff performer willing to take less money to play in Toronto.

But Dumbass preferred gimps like Al Kerfoot and Pete Engvall instead.

A few years ago, it came down to Perry or Simmonds .. both were looking like they were only depth forwards. Leafs went with Simmonds, and Perry had a nicer resurgence elsewhere.

Exactly the kind of anti-winning culture that Pits now has to deal with! I am so stoked that Treliving pulled off day 2. It's looking way better, blue skies ahead maybe even.
