Dreger: Leafs eyeing Coleman to replace Hyman?

[Arthur Morgan]

I wouldn't want to sign in Toronto at this point to be completely honest
I would not come here if I was Coleman
although I do hope he signs with us

 

[Arthur Morgan]

So according to Dreger, the Leafs are interested in everyone who is a free agent.

Well to be fair, they prob are interested in every FA too bad they can't afford it

 

[Pengu]

Coleman won't come cheap....

I'm thinking after tge backlash after this year's debacle
The leafs will have to overpay to get quality proven winners
My guess MLSE BOARD went to Shanahan saying "ITS YOUR MESS "
But at least Minnesota showed dubas whst he's facing in 2 years if they continue
To crap the bed

 

[hullsy47]

Would be a good signing by TO

Dreger is useless anymore .he's about 4th or 5th best in breaking things
Hockey insiders are basically crap compared to NFL OR MLB insiders

 

[613Leafer]

Don't really see why a player from Texas who is married to someone in Texas would come play for Toronto, who due to cap constraints, very likely won't be the highest bidder.

Dreger: Leafs interesting in all free agents

Not only that, but in whispering sounds, really.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

...Eklund gets more rumors correct...

Very wrong

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Very wrong

...correct; Dreger usually is very wrong...

Dreger is legitimate, you just hate him.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Dreger is legitimate, you just hate him.

...Dreger is a Leaf-loving hack who is soo biased that no one takes him seriously, even on the odd occasion that he does have a story...his own doing cuz he's a hack...

Or NHL players are not as emotional and irrational as the fans and they understand that Toronto is a very good team and has an opportunity to win a championship with this group and they think can help them push them over the edge.

 

[Mr Positive]

the problem is that probably every GM has made the brilliant idea to add Coleman as a cheaper option than guys like Hyman.

 

[Double Dion]

Coleman and Hyman are both getting 5+M with some term. They won't be cheap.

 

[Davenport]

So according to Dreger, the Leafs are interested in everyone who is a free agent.

BINGO!

 

[Dr Amazing204]

Coleman would be a good pick up for the Avalanche.

Ok.. it would still be a good signing by TO tho regardless of who started the rumor

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Coleman would be a good pick up for the Avalanche.

Coleman at minimal is getting 4-5 years @ $4,500,000 to play 3rd line minutes basically.

 

[kevsh]

The fact this thread exists explains why he says things like this.

If he was being completely honest he'd add "Moving forward, there is literally no chance this happens."

 

[Dr Pepper]

Wrong

Very wrong

Dreger is legitimate, you just hate him.

C'mon now Darren, fess up......I mean, the username is a bit on the nose, but you didn't think you could hide forever, did you?

if montreal doesn't win the cup i'd like to see toronto win it . and not saying this to cause trouble but i really think they have get tougher to go through four rounds of playoff hockey

Agreed, they'd be the perfect fit for him.

 

[TheScandal89]

Coleman is at a point where he is no longer gonna be cheap depth, the Leafs need to get the type of player he is before its time they cash in. Unfortunately, Dubas wouldn't know how to find anyone unless they play the skill game and are 5'9 and under

 

[NewEraGM]

I can see him signing in Colorado! especially if landeskog walks, they could sign Coleman for half the money it’ll take to sign landeskog.

would fit in nicely there imo
