    2025 Offseason Thread: Spring Cleaning

    I think you have to dig into the types of regular season success those other contenders had. For the Leafs, I believe it was a playstyle mismatch. Dubas-Keefe Leafs leaned super hard into controlling the puck and manipulating space, which is like preparing for 2030 hockey. Power Play hockey of...

    Armchair GM Thread 2025/26

    Ah true. It would only solve their future salary issue. If they dumb it up I guess we’ll see him more in one of the Atlantic teams trying to take the next rebuild step. Or Anaheim/San Jose with their prospect arsenals.

    SCF: Florida Panthers vs. Edmonton Oilers

    Ice is slippery around the crease :) my only surprise is he didn’t try to break his fall with his elbow into Skinner’s noggin Edit: I still hope the Leafs can sign him

    If Dallas says yes to this low ball, Jim Nill should be fired

    Armchair GM Thread 2025/26

    For some reason, there is chatter that Dallas will look to move on from Jason Robertson (7.75M AAV for this coming season before RFA). I don't know if the Leafs have the trade capital, but I wonder if something like this could work to TOR: Jason Robertson, Matt Dumba, whatever prospect on the...

    2025 Offseason Thread: Spring Cleaning

    You can feel the Marner-Ferris spin coming. Drink every time you hear ‘disrespect’. Edit: That was fast. Going to repeat that trading him in 2023 should’ve been done, even for Alex Kerfootian peanuts, just to not have to go through this negotiation cycle ever again. Other Ferris clients...

    2025 Offseason Thread: Spring Cleaning

    I think one of the pitfalls of the Dubas-era and the analytics movement in general is the overemphasis on evaluating the large sample data. Yes, you need to see the whole picture for certain types of evaluation to smear out luck effects, but there was an over-reliance on that to pooh-pooh away...

    2025 Offseason Thread: Spring Cleaning

    Marner is not getting traded; his representation sees no value in the 8th year. If anything, I suspect he will only sign for 4-5 years (12-14M) to take advantage of the steeply rising cap on another contract after. This is the guy that fought to be paid more than Auston Matthews for one initial...

    Marner won the Memorial Cup in 2016 D+1 and had 14 pts in the tournament to lead all scorers (2G-12A) Guess who did most of the damage in the finals though

    The caveat is he is D+2 and usually the blue chip prospects don't usually spend enough time in junior to accumulate this amount of accolades. But it's still cool that he did it.
