screw it! I'm all aboard Zadorov train!
Bring that mutant in! Super physical, clearing the crease and a bomb from the point!

No, It's not that I wouldn't appreciate what he brings, but at the rumored price of $5m+, no thanks.
Simon Benoit does that stuff for nearly a 5th of that.

Would be nice to add another winger like Duclair for depth, if we're not going to have the capital to bolster down the middle

All of a sudden....
The anti leafs bias from the nhl is making this league unwatchable.

This is what a lot will post on the main boards, but it simply isn’t true. Zadorov was a consistent 20+ minute per night defenseman in the playoffs, on a good team in Vancouver. He was one of their better ones too. He is a second pairing defender and a good one. He just needs a quality partner and I believe he would have one in McCabe. This would be a solid pickup for us, and the leafs mgmt knows it.

Well Gary Bettman is welcome to remember the Tanev deal 8 years from now when he’s a senile old man.
What a continuing joke the NHL is trying to enforce things outside the letter of the CBA, putting your thumb on the scale of justice for your little unpopular house league.

Domi was rumored to want 6mil, moral of the story is don't listen to rumors..........
Adding a puck moving reclamation project as the #6 would make sense if that were to happen.
Boqvist checks some boxes. PP2 option whose one standout skill is his shot from the point. Difficulties staying healthy, but it’s a similar bet to what FLA did with Montour before he popped off.
Niemela could get some games in a rotation with him for that spot.

maybe they should adjust cap hits for the no tax states so teams wouldn't have to do this to make it a level playing field

Have always liked him since his draft year (wanted him fir the Leafs in 2017), not sure if the Leafs D has room for a project in its current form though
The fact he mentions the Leafs and not Vegas or Tampa is ridiculous

So they get another big Z, instead of us throwing him at them? No thanks

The team should just withhold revenue sharing cheques. The NHL is what, 10 guys in a New York office with a couple of white boards and tracks the salary cap of each team like George Costanza’s wallet?

He averaged 17 minutes a night in Vancouver
He's also 29 years old, we're not unlocking some untapped potential. He had a great playoff run but for the most part he's a #5 who is about to get paid like a top 4 defender
