Sujet: I have seen enough
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>zvirbuly</b></div><div>Ok, my mistake.
But as for forward position - I think it will be between Savoie or Rousek. Kulich and Rosen should remain in the AHL and dominate there.</div></div>

For the offense, I'd prefer Kulich over Olofsson. Kulich possesses an equally impressive shot, but I believe he can cover the entire ice more effectively than Olofsson. The line combinations look solid. The middle six appear flexible, and honestly, even the top nine seem interchangeable. It might be a good idea to occasionally let Krebs move up and have Jost take on the role of the 4th line center. Who he replaces is who ever is having a bad couple of games.

On defense, it might be beneficial to give Johnston a taste of the NHL. However, he should gain some experience and hone his skills in the AHL for the majority of the year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>leafs101</b></div><div>Saying Clifton is better is hilarious, Brodie has been our most sound defender for years now but alrighty. And no all those other players dont have comparable stats, if you look at the defensive advanced stats it’s not close.</div></div>

Brodie might be the leafts most "sound"defender but stats don't lie:

In this comparison between Clifton from Boston (BOS) and Brodie from Toronto (TOR) based on their 2022-23 NHL season metrics, it appears that Clifton has slightly better stats overall.

Here's a breakdown:

Corsi (All): Clifton has a higher Corsi For Percentage (CF%) at 46.7% compared to Brodie's 45.8%. This means Clifton's team had a slightly higher percentage of the total shot attempts when he was on the ice.

Fenwick (All): Clifton again has a higher Fenwick For Percentage (FF%) at 46.8% versus Brodie's 46.9%, indicating his team had a slight edge in unblocked shot attempts during his shifts.

PDO (All): Clifton's PDO is higher at 103.1 compared to Brodie's 99.2. PDO is the sum of a player's on-ice shooting percentage and on-ice save percentage. A PDO over 100, like Clifton's, typically indicates that a player has been on the "lucky" side of variance, while a PDO below 100, like Brodie's, can be seen as "unlucky."

Zone Starts (All): Clifton started a higher percentage of his shifts in the offensive zone (oZS%) at 46.8% compared to Brodie's 43%.

So yeah, Clifton is better and younger to boot.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>leafs101</b></div><div>I think you've grossly underestimated Brodie because of some bogus buyout suggestions. Only reason it was ever suggested is because he has a $0 buyout hit against this season, and with Murray on LTIR it's all but confirmed he's going nowhere short of an overpay via trade market or a massive massive trade by Treliving. He's a very effective defensive top 4 D, the fact that you have us paying to get rid of him AND you have a guy who would undoubtedly be in this top 4 sitting in the press box is utterly laughable. Leafs quite easily decline.</div></div>

Brodie is a decent but not among the top 4 defensemen on a strong team, let alone the Sabres.

The top 4 defensemen for the Sabres are Dahlin, Samuelsson, Clifton, and Powers.

Brodie would likely be a substitute player if any of these top 4 defensemen were injured. Additionally, the Sabres also have Johnson, Lyubushkin, and Bryson, all of whom have comparable statistics. So I could see Brodie sitting or on the 3rd line if he was on the sabres.

Regarding placing Murray on LTIR, I find it frustrating that this league allows teams to exploit the LTIR provision for "injured" players. It's time to reconsider the rules to prevent teams from bending or even cheating the system. Whatever happened to integrity and honesty, both in the workplace and in life? It's essential to uphold fair play and transparency.
