The guy had 1 good year!!! Stamkos has 3 Stanley Cup rings and two Rocket Richard Trophies ... Has 5 seasons of 90 points or better!! Plus a Mark Messier Award to boot. Yeah what was I thinking??? LMAO Stamkos scored 84 points this past season, factor in his pedigree? 3 Cups as captain!! 2 Richard Trophies... Stamkos can realistically ask for a 4 year contract simlar to Matthews. If you only needed a player for 4 years? The age thing doesn't really matter. Stamkos over the past 4 seasons????

18-19 = 98 points
19-20 = 66 points (57 games)
20-21 = 34 points (38 games)
21-22 = 106 points
22-23 = 84 points

Factor in 3 Stanley Cups in those years.... How does Matthews compare to that? His lone season of 100 points and 2 Richard Trophies? No playoff success, and for the most part has been an 80 point player the past 3 out of 4 seasons. Yeah Matthews absolutely rocks LMAO

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan98</b></div><div>You, sir, are a clown... Stuzle isn't hitting 100 and Matthews will win the Rocket and hit 100 1rst off... Second of all, look at Toronto's 2021 2nd round pick, Matthew Knies or their 2022 pick Fraser Minten... Both are either in the NHL or will be in the NHL whithin a year

Ottawa hasn't made the playoffs in 6 years and are the 7th best team in a division of 8... Ottawa overpays guys like Korpisalo, Norris, Joseph, Batherson and now have no space for Pinto... Yes, signing a top 3 player in the NHL will be worth it to any team... Just bc a German flopper gets 8.3 doesn't make him better... And the fact still remains that Bobrovsky single handedly carried Florida past the 65 win Bruins (Are they trash?), the Leafs and swept the Hurricanes (If the Leafs are bad and they did better agaisnt Florida than Carolina, doesn't this make Carolina bad?) when you're trying to argue a team that didn't make the playoffs in that year is better is pure hypocrisy... Then add that Toronto OWNS Ottawa everywhere (RS, Playoffs, preseason) and what's your point besides being an absolute Homer</div></div>

LMAO!!! You really think Austin Matthews is top 3 player in the league???!!! He's not even a top 5 center in the league forget top 3 player overall.... You must have a traumatic brain injury or something. Matthews likely stays and hovers around the 80-85 point range. Stutzle already hit 90 points, he hit 90 points in his career before Matthews did. Ottawa likely has Stutzle who most will agree will be a regular 100 point player at $8.3M. My point? This is how you ACTUALLY build a team. Again not sure where you are getting lost here? Ottawa wasn't trying to win for 3-4 of the years you are crapping on them for.. That is what a rebuild is.... Fraser Minten? come on.... He will be the next Nick Robertson....remember 2 years ago when everyone thought he was the next big 40 goal scorer? Sandin was going to be the next Norris trophy candidate? Matthew Knies will be a very good 3rd liner. Just like when Jeremy Bracco had a good year in the AHL he was going to come up and take the NHL by storm because he was drafted by the Lerafs!! How did that turn out again?

Carolina was missing the equivalent of 60+ goals missing Svechnikov and Paccioretti. If you think that didn't make a difference you're insane. Carolina learned the hard way, that having too many Seth Jarvis, Sebastian Aho, Teravainen's.... isn't a recipe to win in the playoffs. Look who they added? Bunting who plays chippy, Orlov or plays gritty, Brendan Lenieux... The Leafs? They send off Bunting who actually scored 20 goals and played chippy, and gave $5.5M to a guy that scored an impressive 8 goals this past season and is no more chippy than Bunting is. Toronto keeps doing the same thing over and over even with a new GM....

So I have to ask again.... How is it you think Toronto is anything decent? Besides the opening round exit every year what do you have as a claim to fame of success? Seriously? After missing the playoffs 10 of 11 seasons.... It took you that long to finally put together a team that made the playoffs for 6 straight seasons with almost zero success. You can't draft anyone outside the 1st round hence why you have to pay Matthews $13.25M.... Why Nylander will get his $10M....

Ottawa finds 20 goal scorers in the middle rounds, we find players that can contribute past the 1st round. Yes we missed the playoffs by design the past few years. When Ottawa makes the playoffs they generally have some success in them. Toronto can't say that, Toronto can't say they routinely find good players in the middle of the draft, they don't work their salary cap all that well, they are already what $10M into LTIR? You have 4 players signed for longer than 2 years!!! Matthews, Kampf, Reilly, Reaves!!! LMAO!!! Ottawa? Stutzle, Norris, Batherson, Chabot, Korpisalo, Tkachuk, Joseph, MacEwen & Zub!! We have our top end guys signed long-term with the cap going up. The Leafs? Don't even bother. The Leafs have hit their peak it's as simple as that. They have no prospects, they have no cap space, and your best players likely have run out ceiling to become better. Good luck with that, You Leaf fans waited 11 years and built a team that will bottom out winning one round in 20 years. Ottawa's window is just starting, and they are fasr more well rounded than the Leafs.

From last year? Ottawa will have Chychrun, Korpisalo, Tarasenko, and Kubalik.... losing guys like Watson, Gambrell, Holden, and DeBrincat. That is progress.

Toronto? you brought in 8 goals worth of Bertuzzi, 20 goals from Domi... Those two COMBINED equal 5 goals more than Bunting alone. Kerfoot who adds another 10 goals lost and played a big part of your defensive game. Toronto if they even did that went sideways, they didn't improve. Giordano and Brodie struggled last season and are a year older, much like Tavares... Look in the mirror when talking about being a hypocrit and a homer LMAO. You have drank far too much of the Maple Leaf koolaid.

Forum: Armchair-GM23 août à 18 h 44

Sujet: not losing anyone notable

You really think Bertuzzi is going to sign for 3 extra years at $1M less than what he is making now? Same thing for Klingberg? How did you come up with these dollar totals? Are you expecting these guys to have terrible years? Because generally when players have good years they ask for more money not less, especially with term....

Really doubt Tampa takes on Kampf.... They have to re-sign Stamkos and thanks to the Leafs signing of Matthews, they made that very difficult. If Matthews is worth $13.25M for 4 years? Imagine what Stamkos is going to ask for when he hits the bargaining table?

Dude....you lost this argument the second you touched your keyboard and tried to pretend like you have the tools to form a proper idea. The Leafs are total crap. Batherson overpaid? I guess I'd think that too if Leaf fans can look at Matthews contract as a solid signing LMAO. At least we know where those players are.... The Leafs? After the first round no one even knows where those prospects end up... certainly isn't the NHL LMAO. 8 of 10 but in a full scale rebuild. Toronto missed 10 of 11 with a skin of their teeth playoff appearance and obviously a 1st round exit in 11 years. That's an entore decade without any success whatsoever. Ottawa okay missed 10 of 12 but we have a Conference Finals, a Stanley Cup Finals.... The Leafs? You have a season in which you won 5 playoff games and that is like the best you have in more than 20 years!!! Can you even comprehend how pathetic that is?

I explained to you that the Leafs can't draft anyone of significance outside the 1st round....Ottawa? obviously does, When Toronto makes the playoffs? They generally lose but I mean the sun does shine on a dog's ass once in a while and they got past a team that played an EXTRA 84 games over 4 years compared to Toronto's what? 20? LMAO... Not to mention 84 playoff games not easy regular season games. If the Leafs ever find a way to sustain any real playoff success you'd understand. Ottawa fans understand it we've seen a few runs. The Leafs got owned not beaten, they got owned by a team that finished just barely into the wildcard spot. Tampa was ripe to be beat just because of the fatigue factor. Had they played ANYONE else they'd have been out.

Drafting? Ottawa destroys the Leafs.... Playoff success over the past 10 years? Ottawa destroys the Leafs, look at Ottawa's cap situation compared to Toronto's? It's not even close. Ottawa will have a 100 point center making $8.3M... Mastthews if he even hits 100 points which is doubtful I'll say 85-90 points at $13.25M for 4 years? Tkachuk at likely 90 points? $8.2M... Nylander who will if he has a good year stay near his career best of 80 points and will get his $9.5 - 10M LMAO.... Just face it.... in every aspect Toronto pales in comparison to Ottawa. Leaf fans will just see it differently becausde Ottawa tore everything to the ground. But now we're built back up, we will see what happens. Ottawa makes the playoffs and imagine what Leaf fans will think if Ottawa makes the 2nd round and the Leafs don't? Ottawa in one season will have as many playoff series wins as the Leafs do in 20 years. That is the reality. If Ottawa makes the 2nd round this season.... They would have as many series wins as Toronto does in 20!!! That is what your Leafs really are.

Tampa fans might have to watch Stamkos walk away because if Matthews is worth $13.25M?? Stamkos better be asking for $15M, as he has similar stats, just has 3 Stanley Cup rings on his fingers.

Geez you just have to look at what MacKinnon signed for 8 years ($12.6M) MacKinnon recorded 111 points, won a Stanley Cup, and is the guy that makes everyone else around him better. I don't blame you for being skeptical. Matthews for half the term MacKinnon signed, more money, and not even close to the playoff player Mac is. But a lot of Leaf fans will think Matthews left a ton of money on the table, despite the fact that he recorded a whopping 85 points lasty season. Imagine now what that does for some guys?

Speaking of the draft... Have the Leafs selected anyone outside of the 1st round that has scored 20 goals? I believe Carter Verhaeghe like 13 years ago or something? LMAO was the last time the Leafs drafted a player that scored 20 goals outside the first round!! Toronto fans should just shut up.... They can't even succeed at the draft and the only reason Verhaeghe scored 20 goals is because he wasn't playing for the Leafs. Connor brown back in 2012!!!

Ottawa? Lets see.... Ryan Dzingle 7th Round, Mike Hoffman 4th Round, Mark Stone 4th round, Alex Formenton 2nd round, Pinto 2nd round, Batherson 4th round.

LMAO dude!!! Have you ever been to a game in Toronto? It's a morgue in there.... Half the fans don't even watch the games they hang out in the bars.

Again I reiterate, Ottawa was in rebuilding mode, Yes we have good players now but we don't have the depth of teams that were in win-now mode. So a team like Ottawa was always going tov have a tough time replacing a guy like Norris it's that simple. The Leafs have 1 series win and will have only 1 series wion in 2 full decades!! The Leafs missed the playoffs 10 of 11 years with a single 1st round loss or else it would be 11 straight years and a North American record. That is simple facts. Ottawa spennt the first 3 seasons of missing the playoffs with guys like Stepan, in our top 6. That's what happens when you do a complete rebuild. Toronto was never in rebuild when they missed the playoffs 10 of 11 years. They were just bad.

The Leafs can be richer, and more popular but that will be their only claim to fame. Ottawa has more playoff series wins in 7 years than the Leafs have in over 20. That is a fact, Ottawa is the more successful team. Once Ottawa gets to the 2nd round this season and the Leafs don't?

I could see that, the reason I propsed the 2nd rounder is because Buffalo will be competing against the Sens for a playoff spot. Forsberg doesn't get a lot of love but he was one of the better goaltenders in the league stopping high danger chances. So he's not a flake he just has been inconsistent. But in today's NHL there are only a handful of goalies who are consistent, remain healthy, and can play 60 games a season. Everyone else has to find a way to make their goalies work. Forsberg is solid, but Ottawa gets the 2nd rounder from Buffalo only if Buffalo needs a goalie, and Forsberg is the best that's available. Ottawa would keep Forsberg if they didn't need the cap space, and Joseph would be easier to move.

Matthews I believe is realistically closer to the 80 point range he was at last year and he's only that high because he plays with Marner who I agree is a very high talent. Tavares is on the decline, Nylander is likely gone and is also about 80 points give or take but these guys are in their prime and are the best players they're ever going to be. Bertuzzi at $5.5M.... I am predicting right now Leraf fans will be happy to get rid of him. Leaf fans have this dream that Bertuzzi is this monster winger.

But again he will strikle Leaf magic because everyone just becomes better putting on that jersey right?

Cup wins? You mean all the broken pieces that aren't going to play for you? Muzzin and Murray? Don't you find it odd how the Leafs are always chasing Ottawa left overs? Mete, Gambrell, Greening, Lajoie, and whole slew of others LMAO. So Toronto knows Ottawa is on the up and up hence why they take our retreads all the time. Let me guess? Klingberg will play twice as hard and will probaboy hit 70- points because he will want to remain a Leaf to his heart's content right? The Leafs are a joke, and had Ottawa not had to use 7 goaltenders, lose their 2nf line center all season long, Ottawa would've finished much higher up in the standings.

Stutzle is 21 years old.... How many points did Matthews get in his 3rd year? I want to hear you say it.... Stutzle will hit 100 points in his 4th year!! Will be making $4M less, and will likely outscore Matthews again this season. Toronto is on for a massive fall this season. Bertuzzi is not a top line type player, hence why Detroit and Boston didn't trry all that hard to retain him. Domi is a 3rd liner and no one ever keeps him, he's no better than a journeyman 3rd 4th liner.

Stop being a homer... You know the reasons the Leafs aren;'t going to make it. You're all insane!! Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result... Your prospect cupboard? You mean a couple of midgets and the next Colin Greening? Robertson is a nobody.... The little Finnish kid isn;t anything either, Toronto just advertises well but there is a reason these guys aren't going to pan out.

Lastly, Could you imagibne what would've happened had the Leafs played the Oilers in the playoffs? You talk about Korpisalo struggling... Woll ort Samsonov wouldn't have fared even close to as well as Korpisalo did. Edmonton's offense is the envy of the league. Toronto would've been out in 3 games. Florida spotted a 7 gpoal game on you. Every playoff game would've spotted the Oilers a 7 spot against the Leafs. With that Leaf defense?

Had Norris been healthy even half the season? We likely hit the 3rd round. The Leafs got through last season virtually injury-free!! The best season health-wise in years and the Leafs win 5 extra games!! Lets call a spade a spade here... The Leafs are a joke =D

I mean this is fantasy.... Duclair isn't coming back to Ottawa. But likely Ridley Greig who can also be a 15-20 goal scorer. There's potentially 60 goals on the 3rd line.... That's a decent 3rd line. I do agree that there won't be much production of the 4th line, but that's what happens when you're top heavy.
