DISCLAIMER-i don't like toronto...so my ratings may have a little bias but I'll try to give honest opinions about the players.

forwards
Matthews-92 (50 goal potential but I wonder if he can stay healthy)
Marner-88 (overrated a bit I think but a high end playmaking winger for sure.)
Taveres-88 (down year but good two way centre. gotta dislike the contract though)
Nylander-87 (had a great year and made that contract look great compared to...you know what)
now the drop off
Hyman-83 (gritty winger who can chip in offensively)
Kerfoot-82 (I liked him alot on Col but not so much this last year. the book is still open.)
Simmons-81 (This ain't 2017. he's old. he isn't close to the player he once was but a decent bottom-6 option)
Robertson-80 (the book is open for a ratings boost if he proves he can score without getting run through the boards.)
Engvall-79 (whatever, ok bottom-6 piece)
spezza-79 (good veteran option, I like keeping him for TOR)
Vesey-77 (meh)
Boyd (double meh, IDK)

defense
Reilly-85 (overrated bc he plays in Toronto but a solid d-man overall)
Muzzin-85 (maybe not a popular opinion, but I think muezzin is more important to the leafs blueline than Reilly)
Brodie-84 (good add for sure but I'm always a bit skeptical of the "play the off-side guy". if he can do it more power to him)
drop off again.
Holl-81 (nothing special, would be better on the bottom pair.)
Bogosian-79 (remember, he did get bought out and found his way onto a cup winning team. he's not some super special player all of a sudden. hopefully TOR has enough Corsi elsewhere to shelter him.)
Sandin-79 (young. play now. rating increase later.)
liljegren-77 (see Sandin.)

goalies
Anderson-84 (not as bad as last year, but not as good as was thought before)
Campbell-80 (when I heard someone mention possibly trading Anderson and going with Campbell + whoever for a 50/50 split I actually laughed. overvaluing backups, underdogs, and depth players. classic.)
