Seriously, we're going right back to how things used to be before the cap was implemented. Like, how the f*** do the Rangers get Kane for basically nothing?

That is what happens when a player has a nmc and will only waive for one team. Maybe the league should look into getting rid of the nmc, but the nhlpa probably would fight against it.

Long memories in this provincial rivalry.

Also, why would anyone here want the hate to wear off? Anyone here have the laffs as their second team?
Yeah it’s super weird, but to each their own. Montreal and Toronto are the best rivalry games to watch. I have friends that are fans of both teams and it really cranks up the excitement of watching a game together.

You gotta know that if we played the leafs again in the playoffs the previous losses would be be a huge talking point and razing point from fans…

I cant believe they got that much for him. Sandin sucks. Small cant skate turns the puck over. Cant handle a heavy forcheck. Leafs are making some great moves. Identifying all their weaknesses.
Everytime they get into a jam someone bails them out. Ran out of firsts oh here’s a first for kapanen. Oh here’s a first for sandin. I have my theories.

wtf Sandin for Gustafsson and a 1st?

That's horrible lol, i take back everything i said good about Dubas

In no way is that horrible. Sandin is mediocre so Dubas went and got more offense on D AND a 1st pick for a kid they probably had no future plans for.

My favourite rivalry is Battle of Ontario. As a Sens fan who grew up in the GTA, the heat was always there and its fizzled away because when we were in the playoffs, TML sucked. Now TML is in the playoffs , we suck. As soon as we play them it'll be dope. Having said that, I have no issue giving credit to TML, much better managed than we are, but they also have the resources of MLSE and can afford to pay coaches $7million

Well at least this should get the media once again convinced there's no way the Leafs could lose in round 1.

22 year old young defensemen that is developing just fine. Sandin is trending upwards and will be better than McCabe.

Unless the Boston 1st is also being used in another deal to help right now, I see this as a loss. Gustafsson is one of the worst defenders in the league in his own end. Its not like he can score himself out of his shitty defensive play either.

Dubas being the sens fan he is, read this thread today and saw the Dorion vs Dubas poll and said f*** it.

Definitely not a bad trade from the Leafs POV

Because that's the only place Kane wanted to go. He's arguably the best player in their franchise's history, they probably gave the player what he wanted.

Dubas is elite. Added a ton of hardness [McCabe, Lafferty, Schenn, Acciari, O'Reilly], dumped the softness [Engvall, Sandin] and recouped some draft capital in the process.

My kids are 16, 18, 20 and have no clue about any Toronto/Ottawa hatred. They just find Toronto and Montreal fans annoying. That's about it.
