The leafs should _____ offseason thread

[HockeyVirus]

Sorry my mistake, I did not realize that by "for many years now" you actually mean in the last 12 months.... Is this a new calendar or something?

Did you ignore half my post? Not sure why I waste my time

 

[Fatass]

Extend Marner and Tavares. Replace the coach.

You mean the part where you argue that in each series they had problems scoring in 2-3 games?

There is a huge difference between being unable to score for few years, and scoring few goals in some of the games.

The only good point you make is about decidive games... But that's not inability to score, that's heart/leadership...

 

[JianYang]

The leafs should continue making their own history.

I love this book.

 

[DaaaaB's]

I honestly don't care. I don't live vicariously through my team and therefore do not need my ego stroked like so many here do. Love the Habs, hate them... no skin off my nose.

And the Leafs are weak. But I never said such thing of the Bruins. Actually, in the "what makes the Bruins so good" thread (or something like that), I had quite high praise for the organization.

I actually said the Habs fan who started the thread said that not you.

Why? The business makes money and fills the arena in Toronto.

To save us of course!

We could all stop watching hockey if the Leafs left. Think of all the time we could save!

We could go outside and... Wait eww no. We could play video games!

Plus no more heartbreak.

Plus Arizona Leafs has a fun irony to it.. Naming a team Leafs in an area typically associated with desert.

Man, isn't giving up just great!?

Yeah, I see your point!

They need to get a more mobile and dynamic defense. Aside from Rielly they don't get much offensive contributions from back there. Trade Marner to the highest bidder. Do any Leaf fans even want him anymore?

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Shake up, not blow up

 

[Mrfenn92]

The leafs should run it back !

[GoldenSeal]

I see the team being far too comfortable and complacent. There's tons of skills and superstar power that can unleashed but there's no hunger, there's no desire, no sense of urgency that should come from the chance of getting your name on the piece of hockey history.

 

[Anomie2029]

I'd be replacing Shanahan. He persisted with this core coming into the last season when it was pretty evident Dubas wanted change, so I think his position lived or died on the result.

I'd also be looking to move Marner with a return that would include a top pairing defenceman or the pieces to eventually make a move for a top pairing dman. I'm really not convinced Reilly can be the guy on a Stanley Cup calibre team.

It's not worth the assets to move Tavares, so best play out the last year of his contract.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Willy is great. Keep Auston. Addition by subtraction when Marner and captain personality leave

Marner controls whether he’s traded and to where. There would be no bidding. Trading Marner would be a bad decision. It would require retention of contracts coming back. How did Treliving do trading Tkatchuk?

 

[sansabri]

acquire a #1 dman. none available? no choice but to run it back

 

[Voight]

If Rod goes anywhere:

1 - total failure by the Canes if they let him go

2 - it'll be Seattle to be with his buddy Ron Francis

I doubt RBA will want to coach a non contender like Seattle.

 

[Jeremy2020]

The Leafs should run it back again this offseason

 

[Kegs]

All they can do is try and add a top FA really. I can’t image trading away Marner for Pennys on the dollar. Seems to be an over reaction. They lost in game 7 to a team that had a better regular season record.

I’d try and add Montour or something

 

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

Run it back with a new coach, Tavares/Marner trades are only gonna happen if one is eager to move on / sign an extension this offseason.

Covid did not help things. Flat cap hit them pretty hard.

Like every other team?
