He will not get to UFA….I think basically any team that can possibly throw the maximum money at McDavid should do it.

Every team should offer max regardless of their situation. You move whoever you have to.I think basically any team that can possibly throw the maximum money at McDavid should do it.
I agree, they just can’t let him get to that point.He will not get to UFA….
Stephen Peat passed away today. He was,hit by a car days ago. He was 44 years old. RIP big guy.
I agree to some extent and disagree to some extent. You should never used washed up veterans to block out young guys who are ready to make an impact, but there are plenty of recent examples of 'washed up' veterans making an impact on teams going on long playoff runs.Friedman saying that Pacioretty has already been told the Leafs will sign him and he'll be on the roster UNLESS he has a horrible training camp.
If this is true it's no wonder the Leafs are a lame duck organization. They have plenty of young forwards who could be getting opportunities and instead they are handing out spots to washed up vets recovering from serious injuries, who looked pretty damn average (playing for the Caps).

Perry multiple times
Maroon with Tampa
Okposo with Florida
Darren Helm with Colorado
Some might even argue Orpik with the Caps in 2018.
Yeah, the way the information is being presented is misleading. Looking at the Caps list, the vast majority are signed to AHL/ECHL deals or local guys.The number of teams inviting double-digit PTO players to camp seems odd to me. No idea what it means (i.e. do teams who invite less players suck less?) but I don't think I've seen a team invite 17 try-outs to camp before.
N/m most of those numbers are including players that are already signed to the organization.
These adds make it look soooo cheap
Gotta bring back Phil Kessel after this development.
As if the Leafs needed another reason to not be taken seriously.

Fair point.I'd rather have amusing combinations of sponsors like Milk & Oreos than Tik Tok, but whatever.
There it is……Seider 7x $8.55
The best part is: it's not our money and do we really care if the deal goes bad for Detroit? i sure don't!I think it's a fine enough move from Detroit to lock him up given I think he has plenty of value around the league, but I am skeptical of him as a player going forward.
