Quoting: Torontoleafs15
And Weber has a contract for the next 7 years and is 34. And Nylander is 23 with an amazing contract.
Leafs litterley have a laugh party cause this post is hilarious for the leafs
I'm not quite so sure. Like....do you really
want your team to win a Cup, or are you just happy with 4 star forwards, Reilly, Sandin and NOBODY else on D and a prospect cupboard that includes Nate Robertson and a few AHL caliber forwards? OR you can get Weber - who granted is 34, but still a first pairing defenseman who eats minutes and is a right shot. You basically tell the East that you are contender NOW. Not a hopeful, but an actual contender. Because there is no way they make it past the Lightning, and the Bruins, AND the Capitals/Penguins/Flyers, AND whoever makes it out of the west with THAT defense. And...let's call this a spade, but they couldn't really score on a 40 year old Zamboni driver, so I am not sure how dynamic they truly are.
I am not going to tell you who my team is, but I would give ANYTHING to have them win just 1 Cup, even if that means suffering on one "bad" contract for 2 or 3 years (Though if Weber retires the cap hit actually goes to the Predators, not the team that has him. so there is that). But hey, being the 4th best team in the East isn't a bad thing! I mean, they haven't really been better than that since 1967..............
