    We're not a cup contender and would be a worse team after that trade... try harder.

    Trading futures for expiring contracts and a goalie with a huge contract who's best days are behind him (Definitely a downgrade)... no thanks. I'd be interested in Lybushkin in the off-season as a shutdown guy on the right side.

    That trade is a HARD no.

    Please clarify... I have it narrowed to 3 possibilities.

    No mention of a trade proposal in that article.... I'd do Bergren, Johansson or Willander, plus a 2nd no more.

    At or before the deadline... What would it cost to re-sign Sprong? What could we get for Reimer and Ghost?

    I seriously doubt that, it's why he fell in the 1st place. I'm no scout and I saw a lazy, selfish incomplete player... the scouts for teams 1-5 did too. I'm convinced Holland bought the public rankings hype. I can't prove it, but I'll believe it unless I hear otherwise from Holland in an interview.

    Why does this team insist on going into an ineffective shell when they're up in the 3rd... play with pressure like in the 2nd for christ sakes.

    An Athletic mock trade submission suggested Edvinsson for Zegras... if that's the price; no thanks.

    Lambert was on thin ice, Roy is a surprise.

    Maybe Bert is a double agent sent to destroy the Leafs from the inside.

    GDT Kings @ Red Wings 1/13/24

    This team needs a new coach, at the very least 2 new assistant coaches next year... one of which with NHL experience *incase* we heed an interim coach before season's end.

    He sees himself in Lalonde. . . . . Unfortunately it's just his reflection off Newsies chrome dome.

    Atleast Joe is an actual NHL caliber player. KHL, DEL, Extra Liga incoming for he who shall not be names.

    Kinda like Kenny drafting a certain Czech in free fall based on hype.

    We have a lot of bad contracts on this team... slight to modest to big overpays on mediocre (or worse) players. Yzerman spent years getting rid of contracts like that only to sign his own. Thankfully most are short term but that Copp contract, Holl for 3 years, Fabbri should be moved and replaced by Berger, cheaper lateral move... these are sorts of players you move on from and let someone else pay.

    We don't know that we are keeping all three, precisely because Husso being injured means that roster spot is a non-issue. We'll only know once Husso comes back, probably after a game or two to check his health status.

    GDT Red Wings in La La Land - 1/4/24

    Hanafin is a top 4 now and will be for a while at age 26, Lindholm would make us deep down the middle and at 29 he's got lots of runway ahead.

    Has ASP made Edvinsson a trade assist, has Trey made Cossa a trade asset? I'm dreaming of Hanafin and Lindholm.

    I agree, he'll be gone in a couple of seasons; he should be gone at the end of this season.
