Leafs fans:
"Should we take the strategy of overvaluing our own player, or undervaluing the team's other player?"
"I don't know, let's try both"

the real question is why are leaf fans afraid to admit that they’re gonna have to trade one of their big dogs for a defenseman this offseason?

I hope they do. I can't stand Tavares, and I hope Willy is gone. I think building a team only around Matthews and Marner would make the Leafs successful.

Tavares isn't going anywhere though, for better or for worse

You mean Travis Dermott isn't a potential Norris trophy winner?

lol its such an original idea. idk how you could even think of something this clever. Nylander for Pesce my goodness this is a new one

Why not just ask Anaheim to throw in a 1st, I mean Johnsson is invaluable!

He's absolutely a Norris candidate bro. But this Patrick Kane guy? Have you seen his defensive advanced stats?
Dermott for Kane (50% retained) 1-for-1.

Thanks for ruining my dream

I'm a Lightning fan, I'm used to having dreams ruined

If the Leafs so happen to win the Lafreniere sweepstakes, I think it would be idiotic of Dubas to not at least shop one of their big guys for a solid defenceman.

Johnsson for sure is a future Art Ross trophy candidate though!

1. tavares would never waive 2. nobody wants his contract

don’t speak that into existence ever again.

hey hey hey now !!! hes a top 6 winger.... i mean not on Toronto but definitely __________(insert team).

This series between the Leafs and Blue Jackets is an offence vs defence matchup. If the Leafs lose, questions will be asked on Dubas' philosophy. Aren't the Leafs supposed to outscore opponents? Isn't that why he spent $40 million on 4 players? To score.

That 37.5% chance of him being a Leaf, Oiler or Penguin is looming overhead

OMG...that's too high a percentage for me to handle right now.

pretty hard to score when you’re given no room on the ice. columbus absolutely suffocated toronto and they weren’t ready for that nor do they know how to handle that.

makes me ill to think about that

No chance he does that he’s not smart enough. Dumb af

Will>>>Skill, ten times out of ten

As soon as WSH implemented this philosophy they won.

For the sake of the NHL let’s pray he’s a Blue Jacket or a Hab.

"It is not those who can inflict the most, but those who can suffer the most who will conquer."

no let’s pray he’s on the wild
