The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates

Thanks, that makes sense. The timing of our bye week actually worked out decently with Matthews getting injured when he did. At least he hasn't been missing games lately, and by the sounds of it, he won't be out as long as originally anticipated

And I would assume with the next 5 being Columbus x2 Chicago x2 and the Habs that we will give him all the time to be 100%. Hope some of the Marlies step in and look good.

they can't make big moves because there is no cap left IMO

everyone knows leafs are desperate so if retention is involved it will cost massive overpayments or it would have to be cap for cap trade

In fairness this is almost every top team so it balances out.

Anyone looking at Chychrun or Meir, Kane, ROR is going to have to have the team eat 50% or take bavk roster players.

Finally some hockey. On a side note, anyone else having trouble with Ads on this site ? I legitimately can't even click on the upper 50% of the links/sub forums on this site because it keeps redirecting me to random ads and websites.
 
f***ing finally, some Goddamn Leafs hockey.

Leafs need to actually go on a run here. Been too inconsistent and now Tampa is only two points back with a game in hand. We’ve got “easy” opponents coming up but given how they’ve played bad teams this year I ain’t holding my breath.

Had he said he is going big game hunting, you would be in here crying he played his hand and is now forced to overpay and it's proof he's an idiot who can't negotiate.

There isn't a person we could hire who wouldn't have a section of this forum hating them within 2 months of being on the job

Why is it hard to imagine? Without Matthews, our cap is below most of those teams, and you always OBSESS over cap hits, so doesn't that mean they have a better team since our cap is lower?

Does it matter to you that CBJ forwards Jakub Vorechek ($8.25 mil) + Nyquist ($5.5 mil) + #1 Dman Zach Werenski ($9.5 mil) [= $23. 33 mil] is all out on IR and those 3 are already double the Matthews AAV loss?

Or perhaps you didn't know that Chicago currently has

while playing at salary cap floor.

or perhaps you didn't know that Leafs next 5 opponents are all near the bottom of the league standings including 2 X games vs #32 CJB & 2 X #31 Blackhawks.

It can't get any easier a schedule than that. !!!

Do all the teams please, compare caps, I'd like to see if we are the favorites in all games or only some, only maybe your opinion on cap hits has changed.
 
I have no idea why I do this but I love turning off notifications while at work so I can check every few hours to be furious when I realise the Leafs have not acquired a Superstar for pennies on the dollar

Why would I do all the teams when I was only talking about Leafs winning the next 5 games due to easy opponents?

well, I was curious because last game you mentioned how Boston was a measuring stick game, but that's insane because our caps are so different right now.

It’s going to be at least 2 weeks - until a final word on Muzzin is official.
