I love Steve Dangle's reaction to the signing.

I know he’s a contract worker for sportsnet but why would you watch that garbage show over tsn lol

Is that from the promotional video?

leafs twitter big boy, but yeah probably from a vid if i had to guess

 

[LeafsNation75]

is that a 16 and 29 I see there?

That's one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

I think EK is heading to Vancouver with Ryan, just make more sense than the Leafs.

Why would he waive to go there?

The name is clearly at the top.

"Great individual success" feels like a cheap shot from Lou.

 

[ottawa]

Congrats leafs fan...hoping the habs go through a rebuild now too since we're taking the backseat to you, the bolts and the bruins for the next 7 years minimum

yeah I saw that about 1 min after I posted it, tru.

It's also pretty stupid. His individual success was one of the few bright spots for the team over the last few years. It's an attempt to throw shade that only highlights how good he was, and how let down he's been by the franchise.

 

[trellaine201]

Boooo Looou. Unclassy comment. Rot Lou. Lou is jealous. It’s all about control and he thought he could control JT.

Wait until you see him wearing that jersey at centre ice ready to take the draw to start the season.

 

[Mikeyg]

All I have left to say is: they better show us this f***ing video!

 

[Stephen]

Wait until you see him wearing that jersey at centre ice ready to take the draw to start the season.

Wait till you see Auston Matthews hand him the Stanley Cup next June in those home blues.

[Superstar]

Dreger is too late...we got that from Gramps!

 

[thewave]

Why would he waive to go there?

These guys that say that don't know. There is no action in VAN for EK. He has a freaking 10 team list and if he hates Ottawa he just simply lists the Division and a bunch of teams that can't afford him.

Toronto becomes very doable on the short term and he totally hates Melnyk too.

Honestly not overly concerned about the Bruins at this point, Tampa, however....

 

[SweLeafsFan]

Excuse my ignorance, who is Gramps?

"Great individual success" feels like a cheap shot from Lou.

Lou has been there for a month and the only roster change he's had is losing his franchise centerman for nothing

Anyone have the picture of Matthews and Tavares grabbing hands? Was floating all over here yesterday and the day before.
