Murray in the AHL isn't the same as the other players. And I've read nothing that suggests that Giordano is coming back.

"Wanna go, Prettyboy?"
I would be shocked if they brought back Giordano. Where did you hear that?

Mmmm...ok. You know those names are in support of one of the strongest rosters in the NHL, right?
Many experts feel the Leafs had one of the best off seasons in the league and this was before resigning Robertson and getting Paccioretty and Hakanpaa.
You are kind of sounding like sour grapes to be honest? Gio? Now you are making fun of someone we might potential sign (and won't) to be our ninth dman? Murray? He is 30 years old and coming back from injury and is our third stringer with a pretty good #4 in the system. That is what you make fun of?
Name a top ten team from last year that had a better off-season. Go ahead.

This is one of those “what are you doing in that uniform?” Situations.
Anyway, as a Caps fan I was certainly rooting for him but he looks washed.

Patches no clue why but Tanev and OEL understand but contracts to long. Hope does not turn into Jeff Finger situation with Tanev.

That's one way to look at it.
Another would be that he improved a team that finished top ten in the league last year. Did any of the nine teams that finished ahead of the Leafs also improve? As much as the Leafs? Anyone?
The Leafs projected opening night line up this year has the following changes from last year on opening night.
OUT --> IN
Bertuzzi --> McMann
Minten --> Paccioretty
Gregor --> Holmberg
Reaves --> Dewar
Brodie --> Tanev
Klingberg --> OEL
Giordano --> Benoit or Hakanpaa
Samsonov --> Stolarz
Keefe --> Berube
Any other top teams have this good of an off-season?

Leafs are such a joke lol. Every single year they go for offense. But that’s clearly not the issue. Get a goalie and get some real defensemen. Wow tanev… lol…. Plan the parade. So ridiculous.

That's such a Leafs move to make
No wonder why they are about to fall back to a rebuild

I’m telling you all watch out, the 2016 Stanley cup is going to the Toronto maple leafs
We’ve added #1d OEL in his prime, top pairing minute munching shutdown d Tanev, and #1 winger 30+ goal scorer max pacioretty
Pittsburgh and Chicago stand no chance

Pretty silly post considering we added Tanev, OEL, Stolarz

Yes, signing Pacioretty to a low risk, low to medium reward contract at a very low cap hit sure is going to result in the Leafs falling back into a rebuild.
