    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    Futures primarily, as they’re looking to save cap space. Rantanen replaces/d Robertson’s role.

    Marner to Vegas is finally happening

    Uh, Matthews? Even Nylander is climbing up there. I don't care nearly as much about assists. Treliving, when hired, noted he wanted more of a team and less emphasis on the Core 4 thing. Berube noted the same thing when hired. Players in exit interviews noted the same thing. The Florida...

    Marner to Vegas is finally happening

    I, for one, wanted to trade him before the NMC so the team could have a better chance at balancing the lineup, and get rid of the negotiation cycle, and give Marner some peace to find joy in the game again. I was pretty sure a sign and trade could be done in an amicable fashion (he could’ve...

    MLSE doesn't have a biotech division and maybe they ought to (like China and Russia selectively breeding for Olympians)

    Marner to Vegas is finally happening

    If I actually worked for the Leafs, we wouldn't be in this situation lol The off ice stuff affects the on-ice product. Consider the brain space spent dealing with the Marner camp uses up; multiple really good Toronto players who wanted to commit here got boxed out (while Marner's camp publicly...

    Armchair GM Thread 2025/26

    I think Winnipeg was a bit of a drama llama during Ehler's two contracts (Evander Kane, Patrik Laine all having run-ins with Scheifele and Wheeler; Byfuglien jumping ship as well). Ehler's is probably eyeballing Minnesota (this would be hilarious) or Utah or Seattle. Everyone's always happy...

    Marner to Vegas is finally happening

    Talent out the door, yes; I have a different opinion on the level of utility being lost here, but still there is a loss nonetheless. To say it's the best Leaf player being lost for virtually nothing is a stretch, though; maybe you are more flexible than I am. But I think this makes the Leafs a...

    Dreger is reporting that Ehlers wants a quiet landing spot and Winnipeg was even considered a bit too much.

    Armchair GM Thread 2025/26

    2026-27 salary cap is currently projected at 104M, which is another 8.5M on top of this season's. So let's say we want to offer 16M to entice a hometown veteran to play for the Cup alongside Matthews and Nylander, it's not too hard to clear out 7ishM (Domi + OEL or Woll, who knows what the sheet...

    Marner to Vegas is finally happening

    Marner basically stating this was the case for the past 2ish years, but also disengaging with any trade talks or extensions, after Shanahan forced the front office to let the NMC kick in is not helping his PR.
