Proposal: MTL & OTT

[dirtydanglez]

Agreed.

Here they all are cheering Ridly Greig's slapshot.



Turns out the Leafs fans really enjoyed it after all, and the whole incident was just a misunderstanding.

of course they enjoyed it. 7 game win steak that makes the leafs an easy lock for the playoffs. all thanks to ottawa uniting the team. meanwhile the sens locker room is falling apart from the inside.

Yeah, that’s clearly why they were all cheering when Greig salted away the game.

Hear that volume when the puck goes into the net. “Woo! We lost! Yesssss!”

“Losing like this ensures that we’re going to win the next bunch of games, so let’s let the team know how happy we are that they’re about to turn the corner after this game.”

Definitely plausible, well done.

thats what good leadership does, they rally and win. they don't go looking for a way out of town.

Threads like this are magnets for nonsense and trolls.

That's why Leaf fans cheer when their team loses. It was pretty deafening when that puck went in.

All those Leaf fans in Ottawa cheering en masse for the loss.

Brings a tear to your eye.

Here's a whole arena full of Leaf fans cheering for Mike Fisher' double OT winner.

locked the leafs into the playoffs. since the leafs are buyers and sens are sellers how much you want for chychrun and tkachuk?

 

[jbeck5]

doesnt really matter if its in ottawa or toronto its leafs fans making the noise either way.

Not in Toronto, it's not. That was my point.

Losing after the goal went in locked them into the playoffs?

This is what the Leaf fans were thinking in that building as they were apparently cheering loudly for Grieg’s goal?

This is the actual argument you are making?

Not only do they cheer loud for Ottawa goals, but they can also apparently perceive the future.

I’m learning all kinds of things in this thread.

leafs are buyers. how much for tkachuk and chychrun they'd be a great fit for the leafs.

What does that have to do with the crowd noise?

Try actually following the argument for a change.

its a thread about the value of tkachuk. please dont derail thread.

There is nothing to derail. It’s just you trolling with nonsense.

whats tkachuk worth?

 

[Silky Johnson]

They should try and encourage some Grieg like plays by their playoff opposition... maybe thay could actually do something. Such a good team with such an enormous fanbase and resources not being able to do anything when it matters must be so painful.

I mean the leafs rebuild has produced a single playoff round win after missing the playoffs for so long...if that happens to us I will be probably as salty as you.

At least for the Sens we had the excuse of legendarily bad owner and management group. Thankful that has changed now. What's the leafs excuse?

 

[Bileur]

Montreal will take Tkachuk in exchange for a years supply of free coupons to La Banquise, Cafe Cleopatra, Schwartz' deli, and St Viateur Bagels.

The bolded are overrated.

Schwartz’ is legit tho.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Only player who could land Tkachuk in MTL is Suzuki, that's it.

nah im good.

its easy to talk a big game about the playoffs when you're 15th in the east.

but seriously how much for tkachuk. he wants to play in the playoffs and leafs want grit, its a great match.

Leafs don’t have the pieces. Another team would offer a more interesting package for sure.

what about chychrun, he's looking for the playoffs too.

It's easy to talk tough when you have had the most resources and have pretty much sucked for half a century.

Is it? Can you afford Tkachuk? You would probably need to give up Marner at least for cap reasons.

You guys probably don't want to do that and Ottawa doesn't want it enough to add ANYTHING.

Plus there would be an "in division rival" premium. So add a 1st to what you would consider giving up.

Its at least a good fit for the leafs and would likely lead to playoff success, so history says it won't happen.

What does Ottawa want for Tkachuk?

Ottawa wants Tkachuk.

 

[Akrapovince]

whats tkachuk worth?

It’s so weird, he’s one of the players that is more valuable to our team than we would get in assets, however moving him might make our team better depending on the pieces that are brought in.

He’s also a coveted type of player that general managers overpay for but also a player that rarely gets traded, which means our perception of his value is heavily skewed.

Reality is, I’ve seen far better players than Brady get traded for far less than what I want for Brady.

It’s a tough spot that I hope we don’t ever have to get into and one that I would hope most teams don’t ever come across. This team is soulless without him.

 

[Scintillating10]

Ottawa wants Tkachuk.

He may not want Ottawa though

 

[Bileur]

what about chychrun, he's looking for the playoffs too.

Yeah I’d move him.

Hopefully the trade partner would offer a defensive RHD prospect with size and mobility.
