I think we should run three lines that suit and support the primary playdriver on each of those lines. Matthews: works well with forecheckers who can cycle, and one other shooting threat so Matthews isn't super-iso'd Knies is already here, so you just need one more speedy body who is a bit of a...

Just think of how much more he will score from the third line deployment

Just trying to manufacture an excuse to invoke martial law

This is basically what matters most. I think Tavares can still swing it in a 3C role with some smushers on his wing. For 2C, aside from the aforementioned William Karlsson... The Avalanche are up against the cap: some options to pull from them might be Ross Colton or Charlie Coyle, or even...

If Vegas wins the Marner bid, they will need to clear space, and the Leafs can make a play here (or whichever of Florida/Dallas etc signs Marner). I toyed with a Reilly Smith - William Karlsson - William Nylander line 2 for funsies. I suspect Vegas might LTIR Pietrangelo instead

I wonder how often these sorts of things get spitballed around. Mirtle also mentioned that Max Pacioretty has some interest in returning. I don’t know how long it would take for him to recover from transplanting Holmberg’s lower body to replace his, but he should be good for the playoffs.

Shea Theodore and William Karlsson is who I’d start asking for too

Lol

Feels good to see Oiler fans crumble

So slippery

He is so good at innocently causing a ruckus

Lalonde continues to pick up a paycheque (indirectly) from Rogers.

He's going to love watching Stutzle 6 more times a season

I like that for the latter half of the year after Cowan's had some marination in the AHL; and presumably Jarnkrok gets a full training camp, rebuilds his value and either takes on a legit role or is traded by the deadline to fill a different lack.

Ozzie can console him

I don't have actual player names to fill out the blanks (I don't know who is truly available), but I do have a wishlist of player profiles that's not just McDavid x 12. I'll use incumbents where possible, but some of them should obviously be replaced with better/younger options if possible...

https://mapleleafshotstove.com/2025/06/06/five-maple-leafs-thoughts-lambert-cowan-jarnkrok-holmberg/ I don't think Berube's system was the problem; I think the team was kind of only doing the defense half of it, and hoping for the best with the top forwards carrying the play otherwise. I...
