Yet Leafs fans say Lou sucked

Overpaid players ARE bad contracts no matter how young or good they are.

TOR hasn't made it past the 1st round in the salary cap era. How many other contenders can say that?

Why are they even called a contender then lol

Any teams who have not passed 1st round since 15 years ?

Paper Champs

Dubas shaved off a tonne of years from the average age. Marleau (lou signing) Zaitsev (lou), Martin (Lou), Hainsey (Lou). Dubas and Shanahan deserve far more credit than Lou.

Who's overpaid? Matthews, Tavares, Marner and Nylander? If you think that, don't bother commenting. T

How many other contenders would have Cody ceci on their top pairing?

When was the last time Detroit made it past the 1st round?

LMAO

None, but its a stop gap until Dermott is healthy, unless Ceci benefits from a chance of scenery and surprises. I doubt he will but its possible.

They were in the cup final 6 times since Toronto won the cup

You must be a net front guy cause all you try to do is deflect.

And yet Toronto hasn't won a cup since 1967 when i was 7 years old, Yikes

This is the content I like to see

Detroit's been in 6 cup finals in the last 24 years, Winning 4 of them. Toronto hasn't won a cup since 1967 i was 7 then 59 now. Let that sink in.

I dream of a world, where you can make a statement and only intelligent banter ensued. Instead post about the Leafs being young and you open the floor to a bunch of chirps. Great convo.

Depending on your definition of "contenders" Carolina are down there in age, they have some of the best steals in the league in terms of contracts... AND They have won a playoff series this side of the lockout lost season

Super cool, how close are they now? Also 7th oldest team in the League. Great rebuild going on over there.

They overpaid to get rid of Marleau. They won the Kadri trade tho gotta give em that.
Jack Eichel took 10 mill a year for 8 years to stay In BUFFALO.
The only reason Matthews got what he got was because they've been hyping him up so much since before hes been drafted and trying to get him into the discussion with the best centers. They also only signed him for 5 years too. That contract is an overpay. Jack Eichel is his best comparable

*****CODY CECI*****

So what? How are they doing now? Why do Red Wings fans jump on the Leafs only to talk about how awesome the team was 10 years ago.

Detroit can’t compete with Toronto’s rebuild I’ll give you that. If Toronto’s 50 year rebuild was a great one, it’ll definitely take Detroit some time to match that!

Andersen and Reilly aren’t locked up long term. In 2 years, is Dubas going to give A 31 year old 9 mill x 6 years or get a new goaltender. Will the leafs be able to give Reilly 10 mill per in 3 years?
