Trade Mik for Foegele then resign him 3 x 3
Trade Kerfoot for a 2nd or two 3rds

Sign
Mrazek 3.5 x 3
Granlund 3.5 x 3
Bunting 1 x 2
Suter 2 x 2
Forbort 1 x 1

I agree with you 1000%.

I think the focus will be on forwards and if its anything that is going to bring this team crashing down to reality its average goaltending.

The person they chose to play in tandem is the most critical offseason decision and for me I would want a proven veteran that I know can play 60 games if needed as legit #1 starter even if they split the games 50/50.. If they go cheap at the MOST critical position goaltending that impacts wins and losses then we could be in for a long year.

I completely agree that the goaltending add is the key.

I made a promise to myself i was not watch anymore until these clowns running this are gone. I like Keefe. The rest can beat it. They embarrassed themselves and the fans enough for my liking. They are complete failures.
Screwed us 5 years now and then our players choke out like wilting flowers with a 3-1 lead. It’s on the players too. These guys want to keep going the way it is. Really eh ha
I fully expect the worst. Save myself the aggravation and waste of time suits me better ;)
:laugh:

yet here you are fully invested and stressing

just chill man, that aren't doing what their doing just to peeve you off

I am just going to enjoy the games. I am looking forward to the next season.


simple prescription to follow, easier on the nerves

I kinda wish LeaFlanders would embrace this philosophy, it's the same off season every off season for them, all is lost, I hate the management, fire the coach and the old fave, "I'm not going to watch them anymore!" It's certainly entertaining but does eventually grate on your nerves.

The Zamboni driver and if he doesn't bite, sign the glass panel replacement guy or the guy at the popcorn stand. Why go big when half your team is Marlies caliber? I like the idea of Kerfoot on the wing instead of centre though.

800k remaining on cap friendly...

Includes some of the depth guys we got but not including Robertson.

Absolutely shocking

Bunting, kampf, and Mrazek will be with the leafs, everyone else is either marlie bound or fighting for the 4th line. We will have more then 800k.

That opens up 3 spots at league min so 2.25 and as I said doesn't include Robertson

So we have 1.5 added at most if we want to go with 21/2

So like 2.4 mil for a 1 LW is what we're looking at I guess

That is only if all the signings end up on the roster, which they won't. Also likely we move out a guy or two.

Sign Tatar. He's very good. Call it a day after that.

Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Tatar - Tavares - Nylander
Kerfoot - Engvall - Mikeyev
Simmonds - Brooks - Spezza

That opens up 2.5 total I guess because I'm assuming we're not going to stick Robertson in the AHL

Gonna be hard to trade the guys that we need to unless we dump assets

Can't see engvall being a big hit on the market

Bunting is our best LW... let that sink in.

Looks like Ritchie, Tatar and Perrault are the best of what is left for LW?
