Nice try, Cowan. Gotta watch more Nylander highlights

Are other teams allowed to have 5-on-3s? Are the refs trying to extend the series?

Guess who drafted Maccelli

Fundamentally, the Leafs are pursuing flexibility and optionality to tap into latent upside and maximize key performance indicators

basically pajamas and bed sheets

His dad passed away recently, so coming home to support his mom makes a lot of sense.

There's almost no change needed from the previous 5F formation Raddysh Nylander - Tavares - Matthews Knies Lefty (Matthews) to Raddysh pass from the R half wall is open. (see clips from above) He can be the hinge pass from R wall to L wall one timer (Willy), or bump to left shot Bumper for a...

The points are gravy (which is what the cap $$$ is largely for), but the key and pretty repeatable skillset here is the Retrieval and Exit (with control) ability, which is what this Leafs team needs to activate the scoring potential from everyone not named William Nylander.

Ofish

Goodbye 5th rd pick (#133)

An 8.5M cap hit today is equivalent to a 2023/24 cap hit of 6.8M (the last of the stagnant cap era), which is approximately like the 8-yr deal CBJ signed Damon Severson to in 2023 (8 x 6.25M) when he was 29

Hope John Tavares’ amulet comes with a forcefield generator

So it’s 8yr x a number that starts with 6 with weird deferrals? Edit: LeBrun is saying he’s heard 8x8+ CJ says he can confirm it is done. No one has definitive numbers yet. Meanwhile, Dreger said last month he doesn’t think Raddysh is coming to Toronto, but now reports the sign and trade is...
