They want to blame ANYONE but the $10M+ gang.

I encourage everyone here to look at the playoff scoring leaders for the last 15 years. You see many multiple Cup winners and you will also see the guys near the top of the playoff scoring list are the top dogs you would think. These big salaried stars are paid to perform and they deliver when it matters.
What's more telling is the fact that if you look at our playoff scoring and leaders over the last five years, the only name routinely near the top is Rielly.

The guy beasts it come playoffs.
 
I'm getting angrier by the minute that Tre doesn't do anything while all our division rivals and other teams have loaded up. If Tre stands pat (looks like it) he should be shitcanned if Leafs are out in the first round, which they will be. 3.5 hours left. Do something significant you freaking ass clown.

Take a walk, breathe. There's still 4 hours left - frankly tonnes of time for a deal which is inevitable.
 
JT’s made his bank, if he doesn’t want to hang around on a sweetheart deal I say thanks for what you did, enjoy hockey in another city……..
Yeah I agree, if I was the GM I'm not offering Tavares a contract. If he wanted to take $3M-$4M I would contemplate it.

Also these forums are ass.... can't even handle the traffic.

This is why I've wanted them to pursue a 2nd. line center for months.

So many just didn't support that position because Tavares is the 2nd. line center.

Future planning isn't just keeping your picks, it's having the players onboard who can replace someone in the future.

If Leafs had 2 second line centers there's no leverage for either.
 
The reality is if Matthews found beast mode again than doing nothing would be fine. Leafs could hang with anybody whos made moves (And need Morgan to play better ) But with them both cooked its probably a first round exit anyways.

Same thing happened the last 3 years. They refuse to stay up with the times and tech.
 
I'd trade for Mikko Rantanen and give up Matthews Knies in the package

Let Tavares walk in the summer and build around Matthews/Marner/Rantanen/Nylander

You make a big move, bringing in one of the best playoff players in hockey while shaking the foundation of the team
I'm not trading Knies, sorry, he's an untouchable for me. They need MORE like Knies, not less.

The big moves will be this offseason as I allow the cap space to open up and then I treat it like I'm shopping with an open chequebook
