189lb enforcers? Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Shanny has to fire this GM if nothing changes by the Xmas break. The management of this roster is embarrassing that franchise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyCanuck Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Trade willie and Mathews and build your core around Mitch and JT and hope the guy doing the trades cause get back some D man that know how to play D and get some depth pieces with some edge.

The management of this roster is embarrassing that franchise. I believe the Dubas tenure will go down in history and for all the wrong reasons. I will include Shanaplan in this fail. TO had great pieces in place to move into contendor territory but Shanahan and Dubas have messed it up royally. They got rid of Hunter and Lamarillio in favour of an NHL Xbox dweeb. Put the perfect aged, experienced goalie on waivers, a series of awfull signings, a stupid trade for Barrie. Barrie isn't what they needed and wasted a great trade chip in Kadri for a one year rental of a dman they have no hope of re-signing. The media is to blame as well for trumpeting every move as genius. Heck, the latest is the media talking how its no problem playing goalies back to backs! The entire leugue aims for a quality tandem but no not in TO, they are differnt, lol. Burn TO burn, I'm loving every moment of this crap show.

Xbox Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Leafs aren't going anywhere until they trade Matthews and Nylander. "We can and we will", nah more like "We can, we shouldn't but we did anyways" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Seeing this team implode is making me feel all warm and fuzzy right now. They're as overrated as a team gets in this league. Dubas is proving to be just as overrated as the team he's turning into a joke is. Suck it Laff Nation. Suck it hard! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
189lb enforcers? Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I’d be looking to get Jones out of Columbus in a package deal of roster players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I'm the Blue Jackets what would I want? TO has no first to trade, Nylander is figure skater more than a hockey player. I'd want AM if I'm Columbus. If TO would have looked at this kind of option this summer before trading Kadri I think they would look way better. JT and Kadri as one-two centres. Jones-Rielly your first pairing. May even have had money leftover for a real backup lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if Harry Pott.....I mean Kyle Dubas tries to swing a trade with LA to get Doughty. Jones would be a more sensible target, as would Parayko, but this is Dumb....I mean Dubas we're talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has finesse, the other heavy muscle. Their D compositions are also opposites. There are good good players on both sides to facilitate a hockey trade with. Underperforming Wennberg is a massive talent and a Center, for instance. I don’t think draft picks are the real currency here. Roster players are. Can you imagine a Leafs roster with Jenner or Anderson plus a Jones, Savard or? The Leafs needs Dmen and guts. Columbus needs skill and firepower. AM and WN, for instance would supply that. Spitballing... not working out details. That’s for GMs who know what’s in play, not us hacks guessing at hypotheticals. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Nylander for a comparable center to replace Matthews. But those contracts S T I N K. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nylander is still a great player, he looks like he’s back to form too. Time to strike! We need some entertainment in the form of big hockey trades. Harry Potter can save us all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

189lb enforcers? Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I suspect my old proposal of Bouchard for Demko and Goldy is a no-go. The fantasy of Horvat for Brady Tkachuk definitely is now that fans have a sense of who that kid is and will become. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 12 minutes ago, Jimmy McGill said: you enjoy unattainable fantasies I guess It was this time last year and prior that I was pitching that one, while running for cover from all the flak about how that would be an awful trade. I understood why, with the centre position and potential captain thing. Value wise though, I was surprised to learn that the majority forum was unanimously projecting Horvat to be the better player, period. For a rebuilding Canucks team, building a core and missing that coarse growl that BT would bring, I thought it would be an easier sell. Would the Leafs want one or two of our crippled D and Horvat for AM? We’re not a suitable trade partner at all. I also think AM is an incredible talent, but that he will also be consistently hurt or playing hurt. He’s already missing games. I’d rather watch the Leafs waste the young superstars they have, just like I have with the Coilers. It’s made the rebuild years somewhat more fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AM will get you quality back but does Dubas have the balls to do it? WN has some value, ballet on ice though. I agree though that the pieces are there but in the end I dont think Seth Jones goes for anything less than AM. Nylander though could get you a gritty Anderson or a Jenner or both. Werenski could be a possibility as well. Edited December 5, 2019 by rekker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 This dumped, smouldering pile of mulch is indeed in a snowballing quandary, of humonGOUS-big proportions. & as folks have mentioned, media is certainly complicit, helping serve up this sh**-sandwich to the misled Hogtown hoi polloi. 'Dem ****ers trolled us over the two Lo/u contracts, amidst other childish antics. This revenge dish served, will match the coldness of the coming eastern arctic-winter! Sell Maple Fleas, (good luck) with pricey merchandise resembling bargain bin quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
