New GM Trades and Signings Part 2

[Gallagbi]

Acciari is too slow and his foot speed will only get worse. You know how he lead in hits? It’s because he never had the puck.

Kampf doesnt exactly scream "puck possession"

 

[Kurtz]

Out

Luke Schenn Predators, 3 years, $2.25m cap hit, Ryan O'Reilly Predators, 4 years, $4.5m cap hit, Michael Bunting Hurricanes, 3 years $4.5m cap hit Justin Holl Red Wings, 3 years, $3.4m cap hit Accari Penguins, 3 years, $2m cap hit Kallgren Devils, 1 year, $775k/$300k split


In

Ryan Reaves 3x3.25

You've got the wrong numbers on Luke and Reeves.

 

[Bellefour20]

Just saw Acciari is gone. Our best bottom 6 player off to greener pastures. Swell. Great off-season so far. Round of applause for Pizza Boy.

Would you rather have Acciari at 3yrs $2 million AAV or Reaves at 3yrs $1.35 million AAV?

Kampf doesnt exactly scream "puck possession"

That’s why we got the speedy Reaves to play 3W with him.

Kampf doesnt exactly scream "puck possession"

Why do you think so many teams have walked away from Aciari ? It’s because of his foot speed.

 

[The Management]

Something has gotta' be cooking, right? I do worry that Alex Kerfoot is the backup option here if Toronto can't land a bigger fish like Bertuzzi.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Gally is going back to the Yotes.

 

[KaN19]

Mayfield back to the island.

Kerfoot is the big fish.

 

[Gabriel426]

What a brutal take, lol. Geezus.

He would said, Acciari is a great bottom six who hits and don’t back down, hard to play against…if he signed with the Leafs.

 

[DarkKnight]

He’s clearly letting other teams make moves and then he thinks he can come in a lowball some guys when the competition runs out of cap space. Either that or he’s in a coma, because it feels like we’ve been caught flat footed today so far.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I wouldn't be surprised if Mac had a say in this

 

[Torontonian]

If we bring back Kerf, it might break me lol.

I don't hate him as much as I hated Holl.

 

[Gallagbi]

Why do you think so many teams have walked away from Aciari ? It’s because of his foot speed.

Thats nice, and we signed a lunber defensive center who ends up in the same position chasing the play for more money and term

 

[DarkKnight]

Kerfoot is the big fish.

It’s hard to find that kind of finish.

 

[LaPlante94]

Which means Acciari is a better player and signed for less in both value and terms.

He signed for less because he's 31 years old. Kampfs deal ends and he'll be the age Acciari is now pretty much. Kampf plays the hardest defensive minutes on our team, even when Acciari was here and you think 400K more for Kampf to do what Acciari does offensively and what he does defensively is a bad contract because Acciari is more physical.

 

[NastyKnies]

According to many here, Holl’s actually a pretty good Dman, so can’t be too bad

Holl is horrible.

 

[Cleetus]

well looks like I need a new profile pic sad day for sure gonna miss Cookie, like I miss Hyman

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Mayfield back to the island.

damn

 

[Martin Skoula]

It’s hard to find that kind of finish.

He’s 5’10 every shift, you can’t teach that.

 

[Hellcat]

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Do we want to run back the same roster or no?

Uhh we definately doooooooo ..n't.... dooo ... n't .... doo.... we are bit of a bipolar fanbase, we want all the stars but at league min ... we want them to be tough but never take a PIM ... we want them to take chances to score but be defensively conservative .., we are LEAF NATION!!!!!! We are the most together divided fans base...

 

[TDotMassive]

It's a 2 way street. Players have to want to come here.

LMAO... don't give me that nonsense. Maybe in the NBA I buy that... not in the NHL. Not with guys like Schenn, ROR, Acciari, Bunting, etc all saying publicly they like it here and want to stay. This is a contending team with the best facilities, player support and advertising opportunities in the league. ROR said he was blown away by how the Leafs operate... the guy is from Toronto area, dreamed of playing for the Leafs... yet he walks on a 4x4.5 deal. 2 MILLION MORE THAN FREAKING KAMPF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Contenderorpretender]

Been at the cottage. I see nothing has been done to improve this team......great.

 

[DarkKnight]

He’s 5’10 every shift, you can’t teach that.

He’s a 196 foot player.

 

[ToneDog]

Or he is giving all the free money to 34, 88, 35 and keeping Murray. LOL.

Man he has a few holes to fill.
