I mean what man wants to be called "Barbie?"

I'm not sure I'm following here ... Is the issue the connotation of a Barbie doll?

I don't think any real men would be threatened by that at all.

Bill Barber was often called Barbie and Barbs and he never gave a damn. I don't think this is really an issue for him at all.

Thank you. It's not derogatory. Nobody is suggesting he isn't tough or manly. He is. It is merely a slightly humorous take on traditional hockey practice of shortening names. We call Binnington Binny or Binner, Tarasanko we call Tank, Buchnevich we call Buchy. Barbashev we call Barbie.

Toronto has accrued 1.1 million to date, mostly due to Muzzin. So if 50% retained, looks like it could work.
Unless it gets eaten up by a player coming back from IR or LTIR.
I'm fairly certain you don't get to "accrue" cap space when a player is on LTIR....

You simply get to replace him while he's on LTIR.

It will be a buyers market this year and ROR is pure rental so he won’t land Knies. Someone will cough up a first doubt it’s the Leafs though.

Actually it's gonna be a sellers market ror Kane tarasenko....... sorry but knies is a b prospect just because leafs are prospect light doesn't mean knies is an A level prospect. He is a strong middle six player at ceiling.

Healthy ROR would be great addition at TD
Like to see him playing and verified 100% recovered from his injury though before discussing trade
