July 28th, 2021. Excited or Scared?

[Buds17]

Probably neither excited nor scared since I'm not sure they're going to be overly active. Of course, while I don't expect all that much change in terms of quantity, I'd still hope for impactful changes.

 

[Menzinger]

Curious more than anything else. In particular what they do about a 1B goalie and if they opt to spread the remaining cap around on a few mid priced depth guys or if they try to bring in a more expensive impact player.

No way of evaluating for better or for worse something that has yet to happen

 

[ottomaddox]

Toronto will be fairly active...


...for cheap, marginal, and diminutive, forwards.

Some think that players like Sandin, Robertson, and Liljegren will fill in. Maybe 1 of them will. The rest need seasoning.

I suppose I'm a little nervous about the UFA goalie they sign. I think that decision has many implications.

If if if if if if Dubas signs a big name free agent then one of the core 4 will get shipped out. That could get exciting.

In conclusion I'm excited.

After this past season, I feel nothing. It is just over hyped noise.

 

[cupcrazyman]

What UFA is going to come here & play for peanuts ?

What UFA is going to come here & play for peanuts ?

One that was born in the mid 80's?

 

[Leaf Fans]

Leafs fans who bleed blue and white will be excited to see what moves Dubas makes to save next season and his job.

That is what all GMs will be doing.

 

[ToneDog]

That is what all GMs will be doing.

Yup and it is why I expect most fans to be excited about the off season moves.

 

[cupcrazyman]

One that was born in the mid 80's?

True

 

[cupcrazyman]

Yup and it is why I expect most fans to be excited about the off season moves.

Promote a few more guys from the farm ?

None at all, just an assumption.

Great! Me too.

 

[Maple Leaf]

As long as the suits keep bringing in the cash

 

[wingman75]

New season. Everyone starts at 0. Excited as always.

 

[Koolboss]

This organization is beyond repair do I can care less as most of the fans should

 

[Nooodles]

 

[TMLAM34]

Definitely not as excited as I was for last season. Without major change, it’ll be the exact same shit.

 

[ShaneFalco]

I don't care anymore
And I was pumped before the playoffs started. Thought they could do some damage.
I don't see it changing until Mitch is traded and/or Dubas and Keefe fired.
How anyone keeps Keefe after the last 2 playoffs is beyond me. And I liked the guy

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Hard to get excited or care about what bargain bin players Dubas picks up for his bottom six/bottom pairing.

This is it. And now we have Simmonds and Spezza back so far.
And Soup, Engvall perhaps. No finish, no identity

 

[Aashir Mallik]

I’ll say this If you are excited for this off-season or next season either you are:
A) a masochist
B) haven’t been here long enough, I was there too a couple years ago. You’ll adjust soon enough. You are going to have to.
C) Overly optimistic, which plays right into B

 

[Jozay]

As long as Dubas doesnt make any crazy longterm move, Im good.

 

[Bomber0104]

The team is spearheaded and lead by total failures (executives, managers, coaches, players, etc.)...

And they're going to continue rolling out more failure rosters until enough fans are pissed off enough, completely shut down, and stop tuning in to watch them fail.

We're literally in the JFJ phase right now in case that isn't clear.

Demand better Leafs fans.

Who gives a f*** about the expansion draft when all you're hoping for is *maybe* , at best, a first round...

That is if the team feels like giving a shit that particular week of course...

 

[HarryLime]

Don't care. They broke me.

 

[centipede2233]

I’m actually rooting for the leafs to miss the playoffs so I can hear Shanny and dubie give exit interviews on how they are doing a great job and making great strides!
