Post Deadline Transactions and Signings

[Man Bear Pig]

We'll see. I personally don't see it at all, but at least Tampa didn't improve much either

Dubas added a lot of depth, good defensive players and grit. He gets an A this deadline.

 

[ShaneFalco]

It makes about as much sense as freaking out because we didn’t add a 3rd goalie and lost depth in other places to do it.

"freaking out" - it would have been a wise move. We'll see.....

 

[Fogelhund]

question is if the leafs are tougher than last years playoffs with Clifford, Simmonds, Foligno, Muzzin

Last years playoffs? Foligno? LOL... surely this a parody right?

Agreed

 

[Leaffan1991]

Don’t know if I would have gone for the Sandin deal without any follow up, other than that I’m satisfied with our moves.

I think Sandin wanted out

 

[ACC1224]

he's broken stuff before. Relax

sure he has

 

[1specter]

Idk, I really don't get the Sandin trade. Can't help but wonder if there was something else Dubas was working on and it just fell through. Oh well, hope Gus enjoys sitting in the press box lol

Their biggest concerns will be a lack of secondary scoring, they simply have NONE. At least in years prior, they had TONS of secondary offense. Now Matthews is struggling virtually every night and looks terrible.

Goaltending is spotty, going to be a bigger issue than most people are probably willing to admit or anticipate.

I just don't see Toronto getting past the first round, not enough secondary scoring, Matthews in the mud and spotty goaltending isn't gonna cut it.

It's just not.

So stop watching now and move on your life. If you really believe the Leafs have zero chance, why waste your time on them?

Im just happy to not be looking at twitter every 5 minutes and focus on playing games

 

[LeafsFan89]

Is the Dubler talking to the media?

 

[Brobust]

I hope this is comedy.

He's not really wrong.

2LW still not addressed. Sold low on Sandin. Kerfoot still around. Neither Matthews or Tavares have been very productive without Marner.

I don't have a lot of confidence.

 

[Judas Tavares]

Anyone who feels this team wasn't upgraded is either a troll or needs to stick to their video games. There's no other explanation.

 

[stickty111]

Tell me I'm wrong if the Leafs win against Tampa all you want. Until then, I really don't care to hear it

So basically no argument. Any objective person knows we improved a lot.

 

[Contenderorpretender]

Could you imagine if knies doesn't sign this year. Lots of you will poo poo in your pants.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

I think Sandin wanted out

Wasn't it mentioned recently that he was demanding more ice time? If that was the case, he was good as gone. He was in no position to be making those demands.

You make a fair point. What looks good on paper (IMO) still has to translate to the on-ice product.

Im sure Sandin asked for a trade

Agreed

ya my bad, Lyubushkin and Ritchie

 

[cyris]

he's broken stuff before. Relax

What has Jeffler ever broken lol?

 

[Menzinger]

I think Sandin wanted out

Suspect there is some behind the scenes stuff that will come out in the following months regarding the trade

 

[al secord]

What's a Jeffler?

 

[rojac]

Is the Dubler talking to the media?

They mentioned this morning that he was scheduled for 3:45.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

It wouldn't make sense for Knies to not sign. It burns a year off his ELC.

 

[smitty10]

ya my bad, Lyubushkin and Ritchie

Ritchie was gone well before the playoffs.

 

[therealkoho]

What a ridiculous take.

And that's just a small sample

 

[HockeyVirus]

Flyers hold onto JVR
Ducks hang onto Klingberg

LOL
