Caboose Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Any idiot could have performed better than Nonis this offseason, what exactly did he do to deserve a 5 year extension Right when it gets good to be a Leafs fan someone has to crap all over it eh?

oldnews Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The Leafs may have some cap issues, and may have overpaid for Clarkson, but his addition along with Bolland... Theyre going to be one of the toughest teams to play against this season, especially if Bernier breaks out as a true #1... Even without Kadri/Franson: Lupul - Bozak - Kessel JVR - Bolland - Clarkson Kulemin - Colborne - Carter McLaren - McClement - Orr Phaneuf - Gunnarson Liles - Holzer Fraser - Gardiner Reilly Bernier Reimer Theri D could really use some help, but I think theyll get Franson done. NOt much depth at center, but thats a ferocious forechecking squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I actually think that's likely to happen to a degree. TO and their media cannot stomach the idea of losing their Golden Boy even if his comparative value is overstated. Phaneuf will probably be re-upped too. Between them, I can imagine they will spend north of $13 mil over long term contracts rather than allow them to walk and make better money efficient moves. This past offseason shows the thinking in that regard has not changed. With an increased cap next year they will throw all of it at these two players, I'd guess.

LuongovsTuuka Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 And Kadri/Franson haven't re-signed yet... overpaid Clarkson, Bozak, Fraser.. what are you doing Nonis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackcanuck Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Not having a #1 Center( Bozak )and a #1 NHL Goalie is going to add up to a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice orca Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 If Nonis buggers this up I don't know what I'll do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter.S-Kerouac Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 That 5.2 till 2020 with a ntc for Clarkson has got to be the worst contract signed by any GM this offseason. Right after the Bozac signing. OMG am I glad Nonis isn't our GM. To give the money he did to those 2 guys with term and ntc's. I would be freaking if I was a TO fan. They have been building for so long and finally got a playoff birth and faired well against a tough opponent. Now it looks like they are in for another rebuild and all it takes is for some team with a smart GM and the cap space to offer sheet Kadri more than TO can afford and it will be one hell of a long rebuild.

Robongo Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 He's gone at the end of the year . He's pretty socially awkward , possibly social anxiety , and to deal with that circus of a media night in and night out probably drives him nuts . I have a strong feeling he's cashing in in a smaller market south of the border. Suck it nonis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peaches5 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Remember when Nonis offered Schneider, Bourdon, first, second and a third for Brad Richards? I'm just happy that Feaster was Tampa's GM and said no to the deal. That's right Leafs fans Feaster refused the trade, GL with your GM. Firing burke was the stupidest decision Toronto owners made.

aqua59 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Cap raise of roughly $4 million means the possible raise to $6 million for Kessel means Nonis bent the team over. Can we OS Franson yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrissex95 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The biggest mistake Toronto made in the first place was not waiting patiently for their young guys to develop. They're never going to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxin07 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Leafs would be stupid not to sign him. The guy snipes ginos consistently. My prediction: Leafs offer Kessel $6.75M ... Kessel laughs and counters with $8.1M ... They settle on 8 year $7.5M - $60M NMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
