Marner has a no trade clause that kicked in this year. Besides who would want that ridiculous contract. Maybe he’ll wave his no trade clause and we can trade him to Pittsburg and retain half his salary.
Just like Kessel.

Domi and Bertuzzi on the first like with Matthews is a fucking joke.

This should really be Keefe, Marner and Nylander's second last games.
Is the only way to advance.

Hockey teams are built starting from the goalie out.

This team was built ass backwards.

We don't have a #1 goalie no real #1 dman.

Next year will not be any better.

We need the Marner and Tavares contacts to expire.

Unfortunately we can't keep Marner. Too much $$$ and he couldn't rip himself out of a wet lawn bag.

Get a real #1 goalie and 2 true # 1 dman. Until then just the same old misery!

I know easier said then done.

I'm not a flat earther but if Leafs Nation really believes they are the center of the universe then the earth is flat.

not always sure...
I wonder who owns this team, and if they even watch what’s going on?
Who owns the Leafs?
Sportsnet and TSN are owned by Rogers and Bell respectively, who together have an 80% ownership share of the Leafs. it's a conflict of interest but it's a profitable partnership.

This is why Sportsnet and TSN promote the Leafs as Stanley Cup contenders every year. As broadcasters their business model isn't to provide objective sports coverage of the Leafs, it's to promote the team for business and shareholder benefit.

One of our frequent posters was excitedly quoting Craig Button a week or two ago as saying the Leafs have a chance to go all the way this year.
Craig Button works for TSN... if he didn't say that he'd be selling pencils on the street Monday morning.

Toronto has enough $$$ to retain some salary.
Think of what they can buy with what’s freed up.
When you retain salary you have to retain the cap hit that comes with it. Tavares is making $8 million yet his cap hit is $11 million. So if the Leafs retained $4 million of it they still have him as a $7 million cap hit.

This is the best post I've read on the Leaf's.
Bang on.
I would have fired Shanahan and Dubas after the Montreal fiasco,
Keefe the next year's fiasco.
Core 4 is really only Mathews. He and Taveras are men. Marner and Perimeter Nillander are boys.
And Taveras is past his prime leaving only Mathews.
Never a fan of Reilly, what's their record without him?
He's an offensive defenseman on a team that doesn't need one.
Lot's of moves need to be made.
