The only reason anybody knew was because of social media. Do you think he would have shown up and said, "Oh, by the way, I went out to a bar last night and didn't bother with a mask or social distancing. So maybe I should get tested" had it not been on social media? The virus can be spread before showing any symptoms. Does that seem responsible to you? The boy needs to grow up.
He would have been tested either way, even if he didnt go out for drinks. You think they seen a pic on insta then decided to test him? Dr Henry says its fine to do, and shes done the best job out of anyone in North America! If shes says its ok I believe her. Jakes just out here supporting local businesses they've had a rough 4 months too. I hope he left an NHL size tip!

On the flipside his actions can effect the entire team, trainers, and coaching staff during this pandemic. You know, that thing that shut the league down in the first place. It's irresponsible and disrespectful to his teammates. I hope he got an ear full of expletives from
How? Im pretty sure he has to test negative before he joins the group. If not the NHL should really change the protocol.

Jake Virtanen has a ton of potential, but its his off ice stuff that concerns me. Whether it's coming to camp overweight, or taking selfies while driving, or not protecting himself and others, while at a strip club during a pandemic. I think he's selfish. We never hear of local boy done good by donating a bunch of money to the Children's Hospital or lending his time for other charities. I'm not buying the "he's young" excuse anymore. Time to be a pro, Quinn and Petey making him look bad lol
I dont think it was a strip club, and he did donate 200 000 back to the Canucks autism network. But let's not let the facts get in the way of a good story! Also Jakes a little slow this shouldnt suprise anyone by now. It doesnt mean hes a bad guy. Its not like he exposed himself to a security guard like Matthews, or groped a cop like Giroux. He never broke any laws and maybe he needed this for his mental health after being cooped up since March! I know I could use a night out with the boys. Also doesnt he usually have a charity golf tournament in the summer?

I'm kind of torn on this one, he's one of the best players florida has ever had but his record in florida is under .500 and he brought them to the playoffs in 1 out of 11 years he played there.

You honestly think Pearson is top six?
in the Pacific maybe, nowhere else
he runs hot and cold and his position raking is below average
I like him, as a 3rd or 4th line guy
How is he not a top 6 forward? There's 186 top six spot in the NHL and right now Pearson has the 71st most points for a forward.

Id rather go after Sami Vatanen from New Jersey. Simmonds has alot of hard miles on him. Didnt he get hurt right after being traded last year?

If Minnesota is looking for a Centre we have Tyler Madden thats projecting to be a really good top 6 C. A future forward line of Boldy Madden Boeser would be pretty good.
To keep the trade simple. Boeser, Stetcher, Madden
for Dumba
Then we go into the playoffs this year with Markstrom and Demko in net and trade Demko in the off season when his value is higher.
Dumba is a high end puck mover who ill give our defence a new look
Miller Pettersson Virtanen
Pearson Horvat Eriksson
Roussel Gaudette MacEwan
Schaller Beagle Sutter
Ferland Motte
Baertchi Baily Graovac Boucher
Edler Dumba
Hughes Tanev
Benn Myers
Markstrom
Demko
Dumba isnt a high end puck moving defender.. the guy has less assists than Tanev. Hes a rugged defender that plays way bigger than his size. This is the only season in the last 5 years that we havent struggled to score goals and it seems everyone wants to trade away are depth. Brock is having a tough season on the ice but still could reach 60 points and he's dealing with alot of off ice stuff aswell. It was almost predictable he would have a down year but he has lots of character and he'll bounce back!

ya virtanen is on pace for 40 points and mostly 5 on 5 not sure how he sucks
Ya he has more points than Bo 5 on 5, the same as brock, and only 1 less than Petey.... and only plays 12 min a night. The price tag of 1.25 mil is a bargain.

I thought we played pretty well last night but when you have a 1 goal lead with 10 min left you have to be able to close it out. Pearson Bo miller is going to be a good line for us. They shut down that Mcdavid line pretty much all night, then Sutter shutdown steps on the ice and we are picking it out of our net. also Ive seen alot of edler hate on here lately and he was a beast with a goal, 5 shots, 3 bs and a crossbar late. Im not superstitious but............ we won our opener the last 4 years and missed the playoffs so im kinda glad we lost haha.

Wonder what the rationale for that would be.
I think its because hes the best face off guy and they don't want to waste 20sec retrieving the puck on a 5 v 3

We need every point we can get this year. Let's play the players that give us the best chance of winning right now. In pro sports I'm a firm believer of riding the hot hand and Gaud is playing as well as anyone right now.

Why all the hate for Pearson. There's only 3 players at camp that scored more goals in the NHL last year then he did. He's averaged 18 goals over the last 4 yrs. not to mention hes only 26 and has won a Stanley cup. I think a 3rd line of pearson gaudette virtanen would provide the scoring depth we're looking for. Pearson scored 18 last yr Virt 15 and it looks like Gaud offensive game is turning around.

LE has PK value, and value in that he can move up and down the lineup when injuries occur without hurting the team. As far as his production goes all things being equal he produced just as well as Goldobin when given the same assignments - and better then AG, Leivo, Motte, Beagle, Sutter and Pearson last year. I don’t know where he fits in either (3-4 line) but don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion he’s waived yet. That said it’s really up to him now - if I was him I’d be playing my heart out as guys are definitely nipping at his tail.
I dont know how he produced better than Pearson when he had 9 goals in 19gp and loui had 11 in 81 gp. But I get your point he was 5th highest scoring forward on the team last year. Mostly because he played more games then the others.

No lockout.
The decision means the current CBA will remain in effect through the 2021-22 campaign.
Nice, missed that news been busy. thanks.

The leafs just hand out signing bonus like candy. 14.3 mil for Marner in 2020. If there's a lockout next year the leafs would still have to pay out a total of 51 mil in signing bonuses.

Jake's going to be fine. Its like people forget he was 4th on the team in goals last season, while playing on the 3rd line with no powerplay time. 5 v 5 he had 23 points. Ferland had 27. Miller had 27. Nobody knows the goals Travis set for the kid. Id like to know where his testing was compared to last year at camp.

Again as stated above there are nor performance based incentives except on ELC's Brock will get paid, its most likely in the 7 mill range and we will move on.
Signing bonuses aren't performance based incentives. Its just how the contract was structured. I believed they are paid out July 1st. Look at Eriksson's contract on Capfriendly he had a 4 mil signing bonus and a 1 mil base salary. The 4 mil was given to him on July 1st and next season he will earn 1 million during the season. So if the lockout happened this year loui would still take home the 4 million for not playing a game. Look at Auston Mathews contract for 2020 he has a 15.2 mil signing bonus. If there's a lockout the Leafs will still have to pay him I believe. That's why all this years RFA are probably asking for all there money in signing bonuses. And most owners wouldn't want to pay a player for not playing.

Does anyone recall this many unsigned RFA's and UFA's prior to the hockey season?
Im wondering if it has anything to do with the potential of another lockout in 2020. If I was a rfa Id want most of my 2020 salary in signing bonus. If i was brock and the number was 7 mil. give me 6 mil in s bonus and 1 mil base salary.

Considering that Hunter used him as his shutdown guy (while also sheltering a rookie), I have to agree. He also was quite the offensive/defensive beast in the playoffs in his last year in Jrs.
Who was the rookie he was sheltering? Evan Bouchard? The kid put up more points as a 16yr old then Olli did in his d+1 season.

He had 13 points in 18 games, not 18 points.
8 of his 13 were PP points, thus not factoring on plus minus stats.
He had 5 points at 5 on 5, was a -12, so was on the ice for 17 goals at 5 on 5 (or maybe 4 on 4 or 3 on 3. - the advanced stats don't differentiate), so conceding 1 goal per game at even strength when playing as the top defenseman isn't indicative of a shoddy defenseman at all.
Just sayin'
read the bold.

Show me where I claimed that being - 1 per game was ok.
I claimed that conceding 1 even strength goal per game while playing against the top line was acceptable - implicit in that was the expectation that he would be on the ice for an even strength goal for Utica in some 25% to 30% of these games (5 ES goals for and 15 against in those 18 games comprising the sample - as has been subsequently pointed out, he was on the ice for at least 2 shorties against, which form part of his -12 in the +/- column)
And as has been said earlier, we all accept that OJ needs to work on his defensive awareness (look back in the Comets thread and you will see that I have been critical during those 18 games). But we are all united in our hope that he arrives at camp 100% healthy and competes for a roster spot with the big club - but won't be upset if he starts the season - and finishes it - in the AHL.
