Changed vote to a B. The last few signings look great. Got 3 forwards for cheaper than what Hyman signed for. Great depth pieces, Bunting has the most upside for me.

He does seem to have added some very functional parts that will serve clear roles on the team, ie Kampf as a true checking centre, Bunting as an energy winger with some scoring touch. Two year deals will also bridge to when our prospect base should start to deliver some reinforcements.I really like what Dubas has done for you guys this off-season. Less emphasis on guys with veteran intangibles and superficial #grit, just useful role-players that can have real, measurable impact on play-driving or shot-suppression at good value. In Kase’s case, if he can stay healthy, you’re paying nothing for a top 6 guy.
Only ding against him thus far is term on Mzarek’s contract IMO. One year too long.
But Im keeping an extra eye on the Leafs this season. I think a lot of people in the media are expecting a big step back based on the lack of ‘name brand’ adds, but will be surprised how well the ‘no-names’ slide in and make a difference.
This offseason is a good reminder that folks shouldn't start predicting the roster a couple hours into free agency (or the draft, for some folks(

Same just changed mine to B. We replaced Hyman and rebuilt the 3rd lineChanged vote to a B. The last few signings look great. Got 3 forwards for cheaper than what Hyman signed for. Great depth pieces, Bunting has the most upside for me.
lol so salty. You realize NHL is sports right? Why wouldn't we hype our team especially one that was seen as a contender. Making up imaginary fan clubs because you hate the concept of teams having fans.I'll add:
Remember, the dubas fan club has hyped this team up like crazy the last 3 years and yet we all know how those seasons played out.
The list of embarrassing events just keeps growing under kyle.
Use your own brain and evaluate. Don't just parrot what you hear Steve dangle ramble on about.
Dubas hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt.
Ritchie-Matthews-MarnerWe still need another LW to slot into the top 6 and a gritty depth defenceman.
It’s also a reminder that offseason acquisitions may not mean anything come Playoff time.
so approach Dubas’ work with indifference.
he hasn’t earned any optimism in his failure as a GM so far.
I think you still need to split up Matthews and Marner or this team ends up with the same result next seasonRitchie-Matthews-Marner
