Why are u mentioning Kane when deal is with Arizona

The Kane vs Marner debate only makes marner look better. The fact it has an argument on both ends makes marner look awesome since Kane is awesome so thanks

Marner has 8 years to get 3 cups 1 art ross and I think an mvp but not sure on that. Brain little foggy

The fact a 23 yr old can be compared to Kane I’d totally stay away from Arizona deal and just hope marner continues to improve. None of the picks or prospects in return for marner could end up being marner

Pass

But I’m sure there is a good argument on the other end I’ll read.

Coyote won't lol.

NJ
Kerfoot 3.5
Liljegren .863

Leafs
Mcloed .863
Bastian ELC
Zutterland ELC

NJ needs more experienced NHL talent and with Zajac gone at end of season, Kerfoot makes a great 3C for them that can move up the lineup when needed or play the wing and penalty kill. NJ has loads of good forward prospects, but a little light on D prospects, especially NHL ready. Liljegren fills an area of need as they seem to be doing just one year vet deals to fill out their D this year. NJ has lots of cap space to use both this year and next.

Tor gets a young 3/4C who has really worked on his defensive game. The perfect year for Toronto to bring in a guy like Mcloed as they have Spezza and Thornton in the mix. They also pick up two close to, or maybe ready prospects to move into the bottom 6 either this year or next. Both are hard working, gritty types. Leafs also create 3.5 in cap space.

Basically works out to Liljegren for Mcloed and Kerfoot for Bastian and Zutterland.

Funny how leafs fought Nylander so hard but caved into Marner and after two seasons he hasn’t come close to earning his ticket. The bar to earn 10.5 million must be Patrick Kane. Marner isn’t anywhere near Kane who is coming up on 32 years old.

25 Oct 2020 17:23:10
Kane's Best season is already played but Marner dont, and kane ppg 1.05 and Marner 0,97 Who is 23year old and still better season Come to future, kane is old and he already played Best season. First 4 season kane didn't do much vs. Marner. I want Marner stay to leafs not kane play Leafs never thanks. Kane is good not god remember that and he is 32years old. Summasummarum Marner is better and younger that kane when Marner played 1000games. let's see, nobody no who is better when Marner play 1000games. You are fanatic kane fan and i like Marner play. Both Cap is too much but 99% Hockey fans choose younger Marner own team than kane. Maby kane is too old and he can play couble season 70-80points play,
So kane is gone and Marner is future ppg player. Easy selection Marner.

This is Leafs web site go to hawks web site write kane kane kane kane and kane funny stories. Thanks.

Dave just got schooled. lol.

25 Oct 2020 19:21:01
Funny, pretty sure neither Kane or Marner was in this trade. lol.

25 Oct 2020 20:28:34
Yeah sorry bout that

Deal wise kerfoot and devils never a good trade partner. Kerfoot said hells no as being a harvard grad can’t stand Princeton

University rivals is a real thing

Kerfoot never “EVER” will play or cheer anything jersey.

25 Oct 2020 20:33:20
That escalated quickly for a trade without either player lol.

25 Oct 2020 21:12:20
Your analysis always make me think Craiggers. Forgot about the princeton rivalry.

25 Oct 2020 21:19:30
If leafs won’t use Liljegren I’m sure jersey would.

Murray Subban
Butcher Severson

Then Liljegren Carrick and a LD for bottom pairing/ 7th

McLeod has had rough go due to being 12th overall pressure. Good player and fit right into bottom 6 for leafs. Cheap and nhl level that’s what leafs need for bottom 6

Vesey kerfoot Simmonds 3rd

Barbasov, Thornton, spezza, McLeod, Boyd
All solid bottom 3/ extra 2 guys

So Lilly for McLeod I’d go for.

25 Oct 2020 22:03:09
Princeton rivalry an interesting component. I wonder what would happen if he got traded there as he doesn't have a no trade. Would he refuse to report? Does it go that deep?

25 Oct 2020 22:55:36
Seattle expansion

Thomas hickey
Calvin pickard
Jason zucker
Alexander kerfoot
Shea theodore
Keegan kolesar
Matthew barzal
Ethan bear

8 most eligable players in nhl who could be both drafted by whl and expansion Seattle team

Calvin pickard could easily become 1st player to be picked by both Seattle teams and Vegas expansion

Weirdness

Kerfoot denied Seattle whl to go to Harvard. He has nothing against Seattle though except his dads whitecaps are huge rivals to Seattle’s Sounders mls team.

Fun stuff and thanks leafs life always try recalling my many adventures in the sports and Rumors I heard years ago. Starts to get foggy with age but still fun recalling.

26 Oct 2020 00:26:58
Good point after all back then he couldn’t sign over a million so going anywhere but jersey was an option. Now @ 3.5 if dealt I’m sure he’d report

I think it’s more jersey end now as they haven’t forgot and 3.5 wouldn't sit well with them.

26 Oct 2020 01:21:09
Do professional athletes carry school rivalries with them to the big leagues? They are professionals aren’t they?

I would think Kerfoot refusing to sign with Jersey might have had something to do with them not being a very good team than a school rivalry.

But I’ve never spoken to Kerfoot so I don’t know.

25 Oct 2020 00:56:38
Next years big European signing prediction

Nickles Jensen RW 6'3 218 pds Denmark left handed 27 years old

Watched this kid in Oshawa for 2 years. Real fast and big. Got drafted by Canucks 1st round then dealt to rangers.

Hated playing in Hartford and didn't like being in states. Was offered hockey scholarship to various American schools but chose to play in ohl. Loved being drafted by Vancouver and hated being dealt. New York back in 2016 made him a QO but he left and joined team in Finland. Has played with Mikko Lehtonen 3 years now and are close.
Summer workout pal is Freddie so if leafs resign Freddie and keep Mikko happy they very well may have a great speedster coming to team. (Compared to Jesper fast/Michael Grabner speed but power forward size)

Dubas scouted Jensen and wanted him when managing the Sau before Oshawa got to pick him at import draft a few picks prior.
Dubas is doing everything he can to set this up. Now it's up to Jensen who has learned to play a 2 way checking game in the K as that was his big weakness.

Hopefully the stars line up as he will be a perfect bargain next season since leafs need them

Sign Jensen big win for leafs

25 Oct 2020 05:10:03
Looked him up because I recalled the name. I remember exactly when this kid was drafted. He looked like he had some amazing potential. Looks like he still does.

Not a huge fan of the older signings. If you were to sign a 28 year old you have two options. He signs, plays amazing and hits the open market or he plays like garbage and hits the open market.

25 Oct 2020 11:45:26
I guess he must like cold and snow.

Wait and see until a) how Lehtonen plays this year in the NHL, and b) how Jensen does playing in the KHL without Lehtonen and c) if Dubas is still calling the shots lol.

Dubas does seem to have a habit of trying to keep a good thing together, so if Lehtonen does well in the nhl, and Jensen still hold his own in the KHL proving he’s not just a beneficiary of playing beside Lehtonen, and Dubas is still calling the shots, then you may very well be on to something.

25 Oct 2020 12:07:35
Yeah but with leafs cap situation it’s 1 and done moving forward it seems. Maybe leafs don’t protect Mikheyev and he becomes his replacement

So many options

I’ll keep my scouting goggles on and update

Surprised this made rumor page not talk page. Boggles the mind sometimes. lol.

25 Oct 2020 14:30:18
Jensen is a winger not dman. Your points are well made though. I’m just thinking post expansion after leafs lose Mikheyev and Hyman possibly bails.

25 Oct 2020 14:32:00
Free medical care.

25 Oct 2020 22:07:14
Not for glasses. They don’t come cheap. Looks like I need a new set. Maybe MPH isn’t the only one that can’t read. My bad.

26 Oct 2020 00:36:09
Love your comments

I say if your company won’t cover glasses you in wrong company.

Another Nylander trade. It seems many posters here really want the Leafs to get rid of him.

24 Oct 2020 15:37:01
I would not have let the Nylander situation get as far along as it did last year, this as I would have traded him then versus now.
Father did it twice when he played and the apple does not fall far from the tree.

24 Oct 2020 18:22:45
I agree Nylander or Marner should have been traded when they held out. Probably Nylander as he was first up and that sets the tone. Off Marner 8x8 or trade him like Nylander after that.

24 Oct 2020 22:52:41
It was so foolish, it was so obvious Marner wasnt going to hold out. Marner even admitted after signing that he was unwilling to miss any training camp. He could have been signed for 8M long term easy.

25 Oct 2020 02:59:44
I don’t trade Marner for Kane but it does show you what marner has to become to justify his contract and he isn’t close to it.

25 Oct 2020 03:33:58
You wouldn't trade Marner for kane? Kane is still a legitimate superstar with 3 rings. I do this all day long if it's a one for one.

25 Oct 2020 23:39:46
I’d just give it time. Either this stud duds thing works and dubas looks like a genius or by end of year 3 (2021-22) of this experiment dubas is gone and team gets blown up anyways

After all 4th year will be last available year to deal Matthews

Gee how that may just work out.
