The problem with the Leafs in is you hear very little about any other series. Then if the Leafs win it's because they're great, lose because they're awful. The competition has very little to do with it. It's altogether painful commentary. Question, is Holl a horrible dman or have the fans effectively run him out of town? They won't re-sign him, no doubt in my mind. He's ALWAYS the go-to scapegoat. What a toxic fanbase. The Leafs and Oilers basically do the same thing. They lose a series and it's one person's fault. Leafs, it was Kadri or Sandin or whatever. Oilers it was Bear or Smith or Talbot or Deharnais or or or. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conundrumed Posted May 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 Edmonton roars right back unsurprisingly. In what world do you start Broissoit over Hill? Not saying Hill is a world beater, but I highly doubt that he's worse than Broissoit. I don't think it's going to matter. I have a lot of good friends that are Oilers fans so I'm happy for them. No point washing away my Flames misery onto them.lol They're pretty capped out for next year. Good thing Drai is $4mil per under value for 2 more.

You can't expect to beat a team that wins because of powerplays if you give them 5 in a game. 3 on PP and one SH and they had 5 in total. Brossoit is better than he showed, but I think they need to switch goalies. When you have a goalie's number, no point in playing them. We didn't learn that against the Oilers last year.

The_People1 Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 Oilers win a statement game. VGK needs to stay out of the box and play 5-on-5. EDM PP is too good. Feels like series will go 7-games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adin Hill FORCED in.lol Didn't realize injury had him not seeing much time. I kind of overlooked the NYI pick(DET) is at 18. If FLA beats the Leafs out, it moves up to 17thoa. 9th and 17th. Not too shabby!! Then 41, 42 & 43. Should be some solid adds, or capital to move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebrewcrew Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Another failure in Toronto. Dubas is now in the BT situation. Does he stay or go? Maybe not the worst thing for Leafs Nation if he moves on... All of a sudden their down to their final year of Matthews. He's coming off a "down" year by his lofty standards, I don't see any incentive for him to sign a year ahead of UFA. Next year Mackinnon becomes the leagues highest paid player, Matthews will surpass that. I'm of the belief he will be an LA King in 24/25. Coincides with Kopitar's 10x8 expiring.

travel_dude Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Leafs down after finally making the 2nd round. Like we can talk much, We had the play-in useless win against WPG, the win against DAL and VAN. Oilers lose due to poor goaltending. Ubless they get perfect goaltending, they will have theor hands full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Matthews wants to play in ARZ where he's from. It would be the perfect timing too because ARZ is loading up on young kids and ready to emerge from the basement. They also might get the new Tempe arena so their financial situation will be secured. Good fit there. Dubas is an idiot to give Matthews max money and never bought a single year of UFA.

Really hard to do for that organization. They also might be playing in Houston sooner than later.

Many contracts are as a way of enticing players to stay or to sign with clubs, but if he wants to play in his home town, I'm sure he understands their situations. Can they sign that kind of deal? They might be able to considering every team gets a portion of the full NHL revenue, through top ups from other teams doing well, do they not?

I’m just at the point where I’ll believe it when I see it with the Yotes. Ive just got a hard time seeing that ownership giving out what will be the richest contract in NHL history.

"Settle" for $1-mil less per year and/or do a back loaded contract to help ARZ for the first 3-years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
