jeff skinner, you better start scoring or you will be replaced by someone cheaper who can skate and play bottom 6

He won't start scoring with Derek Ryan as his centre.

That makes it 4 ex leaf from the 2018-19 team

Each one that was more hyped by Leafs fan than the last.

A low IQ Warren Foegle .....

I saw a lot of him in the East. Would love him for 5 minutes, then would do something so entirely off the wall that made you wonder if he started playing hockey last week.

he wouldnt score playing with mcdavid and gretzky the way hes played the last few weeks

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

This fanbase LOVES waiver claims.

Philp should be up. We are clamoring for youth, speed and depth scoring yet Philp got a very small runway. Ryan is not it.

A play that will stick in my head forever .....

Love it lol! f*** the Blues

Philp is too passive and perimeter himself. Soft player

Not from what I saw in the preseason. That description fits 80-90% of our team.

 

[Mr Positive]

Love it lol! f*** the Blues

They are already screwed. Not looking like playoffs and overall mediocre team

Yeah it’s a really bad, uninformed take.

 

[McAsuno]

Don't see any problem with this.
Our team needs more speed and help with the PK, and Kapanen provides help to both.
If he sucks, he's easily buriable.

 

[TheGingaNinja]

Might be very good timing if Zach is out for any period of time.

That’s what we do with our prospects….we develop them for other teams…they are rarely afforded much opportunity…

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Guessing Arvidsson’s out for a while longer.

If he continues to suck just put him back on waivers. My expectations aren’t high on Kapanen. Being a waiver claim, he’s the definition of a plug at this point of his career.

Arvidsson's game was coming along nicely before injury. The injuries though... shoulda been expected.

Wouldn't he have to waive his no movement clause? I see articles like this talking about potential trades, but I'm not sure how that could realistically happen.

Likely trade destinations for Jeff Skinner

Jeff Skinner signed a one-year contract worth $3 million with the Edmonton Oilers in July 2024.
