Confirmed with Link: Leafs sign F Tyler Bertuzzi (1 year, $5.5M)

[613Leafer]

Great signing. 2 years would have been better, but oh well.

 

[PromisedLand]

LOL who is getting traded is my next question

 

[Metal God]

Always wanted him on the Leafs

 

[LeafChief]

f***ing excellent.

 

[Rude Dog]

My top free agent target all along. Perfect signing for this team

 

[Gabriel426]

Much better than Kampf at 2.4mil and Kling at 4.5mil.

This is actually a market value deal. Tre is now battling 1 for 4

 

[BertCorbeau]

Question is where is the trade for cap implications? More needs to be done…

 

[Jozay]

Nice.

Matt Murray, pack ur shit.

 

[francis246]

How does our cap situation look now? Can we sign Samsonov after LTIRing Muzzin, or do we need to make a move to clear Murray's cap hit?

We’ve gotta move Murray’s cap hit. But honestly I would not be surprised if Nylander is moved. It seems like it’s going to happen. He’s going to want too much. Also if I’m Treliving and I see what PLD got in return. I’m thinking you can get more for Nylander.

 

[Hoglund4MvP]

Gm of the year incoming

 

[keonsbitterness]

Can all the whiners stop whining now lol

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Wow, a one year “show me” deal. Cool. At least we’ve got a LW set for next season. And if he flops it’s no skin off our nose.

I hope it’s murray

haha I love this but easy now lol

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

First Treliving good move alert, let's go

Exactly. First move I really like.

This is fantastic

Even if Willie is move, he is not going for picks and prospects, there will be players coming back.
Murray needs to go to free up money.

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

Nice pick up and I actually like the short term right now. Maybe we can renegotiate with him next season once our contracts are figured out.

not sure but not enough money to sign Samsonov & upgrade the D, not really sure what they are doing with Murray thanks Dubas for that anchor

If GM means General Mouse

 

[Menzinger]

I owe Tre an apology lol.

Can never go wrong with a 1 year deal

 

[Hoglund4MvP]

Lol this doesn't mean Nylander is being traded. Its a 1 year deal. Bertuzzi is most likely for his line

 

[justashadowof]

Afraid of anything more than a year for Bertuzzi, so this works.

Not particularly physical but he goes inside and takes abuse to score in tight.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Let's not get too crazy

Nah, let's!
