Kane is training and Oakville and met with the Leafs

Now I believe that gets it done all day long but flames fans on here will tell you no lol

I wanted Kane but with how things have looked I dont think there is a need for him anymore. As adding another all offense no defense just seems like a mistake even if its Kane.

1st line looks good

2nd line looks good

3rd line has been pretty good. Robertson has just been a solid piece there with Domi and Jarnkrok

4th line is now playable and McMann looked comfortable

I dont want to touch anything and potentially mess things up. As while it was a 1 game sample we finally had 4 lines that looked like they could do something.

Now if they had continued to have issues with depth scoring would have went yep hes perfect but McMann and Robertson seem to have made a positive impact and I dont want to take em out yet.


As for the CGY trade yea that probs could be it maybe not who knows. Probs could get away with sending Holmberg over Niemela like we saw with STL where no stellar prospect went for ROR

But I’m not sure if the leafs want Kane the forwards are rocking why mess with that

Can we stop trading Niemela?

nah. He's solid but I don't see a path for him to be a majorly impactful player until earliest the last year or two of our contention window (ie. the Matthews contract), may as well use him as trade bait
