Cloning an Ex Leaf

[Warden of the North]

I'm sure if he wanted a job like that he would have one by now. He probably just loves having his own business.

My pick is Sundin. He would be unstoppable without the clutch/grab.

Austin will get there.

 

[Joey Hoser]

Gary Roberts should be hired by our Leafs in player development right now!

He runs his own business training players from all over the league and elsewhere. They probably couldn't pay him enough to shut it all down and work exclusively for them.

 

[Lauro]

As we need D it can only be Horton or Salming.

In 2020 a rookie Wendel Clark would hit someone too hard and get suspended for half a season. Then on his return he'd beat someone up for taking liberties with one of his teammates and be shunned permanently by the modern fan hive mind who pretend to admire the player because that's what they think they're supposed to do.

 

[al secord]

The Great Rick Lanz.

Wendel Clark would be thrown in jail and suspended for life. I mean that as a compliment.

 

[Kurtz]

Not enough Sundin love. Get him away from the clutch n' grab era and give him some of the forward talent we have now instead of the Modins and Hoglunds of the world, and he might win the Art Ross. He or Matthews could move to the wing.

 

[AustonMarner]

Salming would the the obvious choice but im going to go with the world's greatest underrated secondary choice..

Ron Ellis.

 

[Beaumaris]

Eddie "clear the track, here comes" Shack just for the pure entertainment value.

Lol. You have got to be old as me.

Sundin

Sundin

It's time to get over it.

 

[Primary Assist]

Hyman - Matthews - Marner
Nylander - Tavares - STUMPY

Man we could use some clutch goals from #32 these days.

But no, the answer is Mats or Borje.

 

[supermann_98]

Salming or Brian Leetch.

Or you could just hit the Fun Button and pick Mats Sundin. Matthews - Sundin - Tavares down the middle -- just put your hands up and say wheeeeee all the way down

Sundin never had a regular winger like Marner or Nylander. Sure Quinn would tease Mogilny on his wing every once in a while but that never stuck.

Sundin and Matthews together on a line wouldn't be fair

 

[Maple Leaf]

We should sample Hyman's DNA and engineer a new Hyman for 18 years from now

 

[Notsince67]

Big fan of wendel and dougie but we need a Darcy tucker against the rat on Boston

The year Mogilny had 89 points im fairly certain he played with Mats. I recall the Roberts-Sundin-Mogilny unit being superb.

 

[Warden of the North]

I lvoe Zach Hyman, but im fairly certain that his own father wouldnt pick him to clone as a hockey player given every Leaf in history

 

[biotk]

This team desperately needs a Wendel type player. But they need a Salming more.

 

[Clammer]

We need some tucker

 

[82Ninety42011]

Doug Gilmour would be the straw that would stir the drink well. He was magic for them in early 90's.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Wade Belak

 

[LaPlante94]

I'd take Wendel, Roberts or Tucker on forward and Yushkevich on D.

 

[DatSnipeMatthews]

Didn't Wendel play D before the Leafs turned him into a winger?

 

[Lenovs]

gary roberts, darcy tucker, shayne corson. guys i admired in my youth and we got so much talent and so little heart right now.

 

[MLSE]

Go heavy on your strength, you can't stop 3 lines.

Hyman Tavares Marner
Mikheyev Matthews Nylander
Johnsson Sundin/Gilmour Kapanen

 

[CreeksideStrangler]

The answer is Mats. Place him on the 3rd line with scrubs (his usual linemates) and we instantly have 3 dangerous lines. backhands all day long
