Marner probably got 1-1.5 m too much. Besides that, I’m fine with the signings.

I liked the Barrie trade at first... till he played. He makes gardiner look like Hedman. It’s literally like putting out a 4th forward. At least gardiner tried to play defence.

I do like kerfoot though. He’s certainly no Kadri but he’s a solid player.

What kind of potato?

I cant see Marner signing for anywhere near 7 million

Maybe you bring it down to 9.5 but no lower than that

Lou says hi

that's odd, I seem to remember Toronto fans worshiping Dubas after he signed Matthews/Tavares/Marner/Nylander

Yeah, certainly disappointed we didn't get to see Marleau and Zaitsev in those spots this season!!!

Also, with the way injuries happened during the year, this roster would be playing games shorthanded.

Many of us still think he's great. Others are mad that he traded a first to get rid of Lou's mistake and think Lou would have been better. Because signing guys over 30 to long term deals is smart. Those fans are also idiots

?

we had guys on ltir all year (plus horton and clarkson). and ran with small roster all year long.

zaitsev and marleau would not have been any worse than what we put out there.

traded a 1st so he could overpay marner. and then not make the playoffs. nonis 101 level of gm'ing right there.

We had 22/23 man roster all year, so when players had minor injuries someone could step in. With a 20 man roster, and completely capped out, bringing in another player to replace someone with the flu becomes a cap problem.

So today you would rather still have Zaitsev on the roster, rather than $4.5M in capspace?
