Yeah, I know.I described what happened, not like it’s news to anyone.

Clearly you don’t know sarcasmClearly you have no idea how LTIR works
It seems like it was signed , but not registered, in the hope a couple of months of rehab would help.Why does the title say Confirmed Signing ...he never signed, they may have agreed to a contract, but, it is still today unsigned!
At this point, its barely a rumor.
The confrimation was via a Dreger tweet (not unusual) not by the team.Why does the title say Confirmed Signing ...he never signed, they may have agreed to a contract, but, it is still today unsigned!

They didn’t.What the hell kind of logic is in this thread talking about LTIR.
You don’t sign a player and instantly put him on LTIR hoping he never plays
What the hell kind of logic is this
JUST DONT SIGN HIM TO BEGIN WITH.
I know they didn’t,They didn’t.
Oh, right. My mistake.I know they didn’t,
Just some of the discussion on here about LTIR.
Not sure win/win.Not surprised the usual folks trying to make this look like the Leafs made a mistake. They knew he had injuries, player said he was fine, so they came to terms with a big bottom pair dman if he was healthy and were smart enough to make him prove it before filing it and screwing themselves.
Literally win/win here for the Leafs.
Not sure win/win.
Probably more like a nothing-burger. Jani likely never plays again. And Leafs never sign/have him for their bottom pair/PK.
Sure sounds like Robertson won't get his wish for a trade then. Jani is probably done in the NHL. Sportsnet said his injury was bone on bone. Inoperable.If he signs they know he is healthy and get a huge bottom pair guy. If he is unhealthy they will be able to sign Robetson if that happens, run a 23 man roster, and still have some cap left so they can buy at the TDL.

Lack of tags, really!Why does the title say Confirmed Signing ...he never signed, they may have agreed to a contract, but, it is still today unsigned!

Josh Brown is fine
Solid deal for the Leafs.
I would have paid an extra 500k for him, instead of Josh Brown...
No idea what is going there but they are able to do it. If Robertson doesn't sign they have a bunch of flexibility on what to do. Can always try some prospects there the first 10-15 games and make a move in season if it doesn't go well
Lack of tags, really!
Treliving announced it even, but it sounds like they agreed to terms, but never actually registered the contract
Worth changing at this point, probably
The Leafs aren't in the "trying prospects" stage of development
No, but the Leafs hold his rights.Robertson doesn't have to sign the contract though.
Even if they walk away from Hakanpaa, the Leafs are probably still a bit short of a 23-player roster, until they accumulate just a bit more cap space to bring up a 23rd guy.If he signs they know he is healthy and get a huge bottom pair guy. If he is unhealthy they will be able to sign Robetson if that happens, run a 23 man roster, and still have some cap left so they can buy at the TDL.
Yes they are? All teams trying to contend make room for the kids when they are ready. We have a nice batch of forwards coming. One of them is good enough to make the team, maybe two
No they aren't, they didn't "try" Matthew Knies, they knew he was ready.
Trying prospects is what you do when you have a roster full of question marks and you don't know what you have.
Trying prospects is what you do in a rebuild
How does a player with zero NHL games, have UFA leverage.lol huh? They gave Knies NHL games because they had to to get him to sign a contract with us as he had UFA leverage. Same as with Abruzzeze the year before, who clearly is not an NHler but got 9 games after signing.
