Incoming Leaf fan rage at the overpay

Not happening, it's already been reported that Josh Manson wont waive for any Canadian team especially Edmonton and Toronto.

As a lifelong Leafs fan, I do not see this as an overpay. It's what is needed to make the defence playoff-ready; where Holl & Sandin are depth players, not starters.
I've also been hoping to see Manson make it this way for years...albeit I've heard he won't play for a Canadian team.

I know...but I put this out there every year and it's more likely than St. Louis trading Parayko

Edmonton too! Well, there goes my hopes and dreams haha. Dave Manson, do your job, and get Josh to come over!

Such as a ridiculous overpay for a middling UFA Dman. Including Kesler shows you're not serious.

Great insight. /s

What if both ideas are dumb? If I told you that Parayko is staying in St. Louis and Manson sucks would you even believe me? Probably not. Watch more ducks games.

It really is. You should listen to palhal. He might be the most reasonable keafs fan on this site.

He could have written "NO!" and it would have been equally insightful.

What if...now hear me out...these don't have to be things that can only happen in real life?
Hence the name of this forum..." Armchair-GM".

That said, it addresses a problem for the Leafs with a not unreasonable trade.
Will it happen? All but certainly not.
Doesn't stop me from wanting it to happen.

He provided insight instead...

"Insight"
You keep using that word, yet you don't know what it means.
