no cap space

[zeke]

Burkie?
Babcock too?? Lol
I’d finally stop being a fan

there has to be others

 

[dubey]

Well that was a big fuss for a whole lotta nothing.

1 less thing to cry about lol

 

[hockeyguy0022]

You guys make it seem like it David ayres....

This kid played major junior and is a U sport starter... that's exactly the same as a ECHL/AHL goalie for about 90% of the tenders out there. I mean, there's players that play usport and go have 40 point seasons in the AHL after... (Derek Hulak for example)

So it's not like's not qualified to backup.

 

[Nylanderthal]

It’s embarrassing no matter how you rationalize it. Let’s hope Campbell doesn’t go down because then there’s nowhere to talk yourself out of the pretzel.

Colorado played without a full line up tonight as well, Vegas did it 10 times in a 56 game season.
I guess their front offices should be embarrassed as well?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

The dynamic duo.

 

[Leaf Fans]

They didn't "choose" to have no backup.

They didn't have a choice

Sure they did. Mazarek on LTIR waive Amedio they chose the ebug to trigger the emergency call up rule. Pridham knows how to work the CBA.

 

[ULF_55]

Well played Dubas.

 

[Nylanderthal]

will be fun to read the posts if our goalie gets injured, and we have to put the university goalie in.

it'll be zekes for days defending to hear himself speak, like usual. super awesome.

Bringing that same energy in the avs forum? They had to play short handed tonight due to cap/injury limitations

 

[Stonehands1990]

Starting to wonder if we’re gonna let Rielly walk at the end of the year. Campbell needs a new UFA deal and Liljegren & Sandin need new RFA deals. I can’t see us developing 23, 38 & 37 to just battle for bottom pairing minutes

They could have put a forward on waivers called up hutch and ran 11-6-2

 

[Dragao6]

Ur making me cry

it’s been a good day

Or sent 37 or 38 down even if just on paper. Holl scratched was the difference

They needed both liljegren and sandin in the line up tonight. You can’t play with 5 D. Having Holl, Matthews & Mrazek unavailable to play, but count against the cap this early in the season when space hasn’t had time to accrue would put any team in a bind.

 

[cupcrazyman]

Maybe no cap space will force Dubas to keep Sandin & Lilj as full time Leafs all season.

 

[thinkblue]

Question
In the chance dubas and keefe get fired, you usually do this oft here’s also other good options out there to hire

what GM’s and head coaches are out there as good options?

The top rising candidates for NHL coach, GM jobs

Good thing both so far look capable of holding down bottom pairing assignments.

Their play is doing that well enough already.

 

[The Iceman]

I don’t think he’s getting paid that much is he?

I was actually just guessing divding $750K by 82 games.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

This seems more like bad luck then anything. We have three players injured who we don’t want on LTIR. Any team against the cap could easily run into this issue.

ATOs are unpaid, unfortunately

Need to trade him for assets if we cannot resign him. We are stupid to keep letting players walk for nothing, especially in a cap world as a cap team.

Haven't heard anything specifically about what, if anything, was done, but traditionally I think they pass the hat around the room and make sure the person gets some $. Obviously not official, but hopefully he gets a nice little sum.

It came. It went. All the drama stayed.

Now we have a right winger playing defense.
Good Grief !

You know that has nothing to do with the cap right? Should we call someone up so we can expose them to waivers when Holl and Muzzin return, possibly tomorrow.
