Huh cant believe he brook it on December 27th. I dont know why but I thought he got injured like the last week. For some reason thought he was playing the islanders game and got injured in that. It's been 2+ weeks so he should hopefully be back in another 10 days or so.

No need to rush him back, want him at his best for playoffs. He's clearly had more bothering him than his foot
Muzzin, Marner, Tavares, Johnsson, Hyman, Dermott, Mikheyev, Kerfoot and Moore have all missed significant time this year, and we’re still doing pretty well! Definitely a sign of a deep roster. IMO Muzzin can take his time recovering - he’s obviously WAY better than Marincin, and we do lack toughness without him, but the team is strong enough to keep winning even with him (and others) out.
I wonder if we should rest Rielly when Muzz gets back.
pleaseee. We should rest him the moment where it would only take a monumental collapse to miss the playoffs

We lose to Florida tomorrow, we're 2 points from 9th in the east. I wouldn't exactly call that securely in a playoff spot. LOL
Haha we need to recalibrate our expectations. Things are different now

We should rest Rielly because he has been straight junk
Send him to the pressbox
Drink some pina colada
When he comes back we may see glimpses of the past

Johnsson probably getting activated so he would need to go on LTIR for us to fit everybody in.
He hasn't been as bad in the last couple games, but he's still not 100%. If we open up some breathing room from Florida, I'd definitely rest him... assuming doctors think it would help.

So with Muzzin being placed on LTIR what does this mean for his possible return date and our cap situation? Is LTIR retroactive from when he was hurt initially? Do the Leafs save any money towards the cap during that time?

I think around January 20th. he could come off LTIR, but his cap hit is 4 and they have 1.9.
So Brooks, Marchment and Marincin to the Marlies?

Sounds about right as to whom would be sent to Marlies. My hope is Ceci and Johnsson are traded as part of a package to upgrade on Ceci on backend. That upgrade and Muzzin back would do wonders for the Leafs. At the same time it would allow breaking up Reilly and Barrie pairing. Reilly needs a true partner with Barrie playing with Muzzin.

Ceci has negative value so i doubt packaging Johnson with him gets us an upgrade on him .
With Muzzy out we have no veteran defensive presence on the backend. Holl is our next best but he is only a #5 (maybe a #4). We can all see with Muzzy out we have no real defensive defenseman. I expect we are in deep do do until he is back in our lineup unless we can win a 6-5 game which is very possible given our SOFT schedule.

I won't debate your position, but if someone wants a medium length asset at a reasonable cap hit in Johnsson and are not planning on any playoffs this year, to facilitate the deal Ceci isn't going to be a difficulty.
Tank teams still have to ice a line-up, and Ceci can play 20 minutes a night, and for tank teams he isn't a threat to hurt their draft position, although Johnsson might be.
I see Johnsson as a complementary player, but he can produce offensively, scored 20 last year.
Honestly, I don't think Ceci is as bad as some want him to be, but I don't see anyone on the defense as good as some think they are.

imo Ceci is a solid bottom pair D who's grossly overpaid , he's a pending ufa so his salary isn't much of an issue but my point was why would a team give up a top 4 D for Johnson with him attached , hell why would a team give up a top 4 D for a small complimentary winger like Johnson alone ?
