We're not a better team today than we were in May. Still time. But if the core doesnt really show up this time around the changes will be immense.

 

[BeLeafing]

Mrazek - Happy with the signing, he and Campbell form a quite solid tandem.

Bunting - Underrated asset and very pleased to get 2 years in the deal. Should get a look in the top 6.

Kampf - Not sure with this one. Derek Ryan, who just signed with Edmonton for less, is a much better defensive player.

To consider this offseason a moderate success I would need to see either a Saad/Tatar signing or a trade for a top 6 winger. Doing one of those things is a must.

Hoffman to the habs

Hoffman to the habs

Brutal.

 

[CupcakeSprinkles]

Alright, can we stop with the full meltdown mode act. This roster won the North Division.

We lost Hyman, Bogosian, Freddy, Thornton, Foligno (barely played reg szn)

We brought in Bunting, Kampf, Biega, Dahlstrom, Mrazek

We have Robertson, Liljegren, Brooks, Anderson challenging for roster spots. I’m sorry, but I actually think we are the same/more balanced. The off-season is far from over. We do have contracts moveable in the event of higher caliber offense trade.

Let the team actually fail before calling for ones head. If this is the roster and it makes it over the top because of passing judgement.. it’ll be comical to look back

Run a simple points in + point out. Factor in Hyman totals were inflated..

 

[Muston Atthews]

We could’ve used Hoffman at that price…

 

[Brobust]

Don't see the leafs going into the season with Kerfoot/Bunting as the top 6 LWs.

They still have about $3.8M.

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

Sky is falling after the 1st day of Free Agency for some people.

Sensible take. Lot's of time this off-season for sure.

The Leafs definitely need a LW with a track record of being able to play in a big offensive role. Tatar or Saad make sense but their prices and questionable consistency... It'll be tough.

 

[The CyNick]

Hoffman to the habs

Full season of Suzuki, Caufield and Hoffman will be good.

 

[Mckay]

We didn't sign Derek F'ing Ryan?

 

[CupcakeSprinkles]

perimeter scorer no thanks

 

[CupcakeSprinkles]

We didn't sign Derek F'ing Ryan?

it would of been complaints regardless by the mess and the 13 year old crew

 

[Nylander88]

According to Hockeybuzz, we are one of the teams with an offer in on Corey Perry. Interesting to say the least.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Brandon Saad is still available for the LW, but 1st is day has come and gone and im fine with it.

 

[Muston Atthews]

perimeter scorer no thanks

a scorer nonetheless

 

[WestCoastLeafs]

Silver lining in Foligno contract is that it's more than I would have wanted to pay, by about $1M.

 

[Buds17]

I'm anticipating that a forward add for the top six is still to come. Definitely a day of quantity for the team...quality is TBD.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

im interested to see what is going to happen but someone is gonna be moving from our group i think and there are still players we can hopefully nab.

 

[CupcakeSprinkles]

a scorer nonetheless

Hyman wasn’t a scorer - he scored 15 goals. He rode as a supplementary player on that line. We didn’t have an issue scoring with the players on the roster

If anything Mikheyev, Kerfoot took a step back. Kerfoot should in our top 6 after his playoff showing. Foligno didn’t play a majority of the regular season. We also have this scorer named Nick Robertson.

Can you please quantify all this offense we lost?

 

[HockeyVirus]

We could’ve used Hoffman at that price…

Why sign a legit top 6 forward when you can sign plugs?

 

[PromisedLand]

im interested to see what is going to happen but someone is gonna be moving from our group i think and there are still players we can hopefully nab.

the only players worth moving to get quality back are not going to be moved by the management i.e. core4

rest of the crap we have is going going to return crap unless you move Rielly/Brodie then the D is even more garbage

 

[Primary Assist]

That Foligno contract is brutal. We don't know how severe his injury was in the playoffs, but he didn't look like an NHL level player at all in the games he did play for us in the post season

Here's something interesting about Kampf: 2nd on team last season in TOI vs elite competition and had a positive CF% in those minutes.

That's according to PuckIQ.
