[Judas Tavares]

lol 12 mil

can't wait for Doug Wilson to offersheet AM34 next year in retaliation

Literally the only team that I didn't want to get Tavares, ****.

At least the nice thing is that we won't be seeing the "adjust the salary cap based on tax rate" suggestions from Leafs fans anymore.

Offense doesn't win championships; Toronto is still gonna suck.

I cant believe the Leafs might finally win a playoff round, after 15 years of losing

all in the front , nothing in the back

u guys better win a cup

May your career go down in flames soon, John.

****ing hate this.

Laffs still WAY behind...Pens,Caps,Bolts and its not close.

I actually thinking drinking bleach is preferable to having to deal with Leafs fans for the rest of the summer.

In some areas of psychology (especially in psychodynamic theory), psychologists talk about “defense mechanisms,” or manners in which we behave or think in certain ways to better protect or “defend” ourselves. Defense mechanisms are one way of looking at how people distance themselves from a full awareness of unpleasant thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

1. Denial

Denial is the refusal to accept reality or fact, acting as if a painful event, thought or feeling did not exist. Many people use denial in their everyday lives to avoid dealing with painful feelings or areas of their life they don’t wish to admit.

Tyler Seguin.

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Don’t love this contract. 11 mil for a player who has averaged 59 points through his NHL career? Idk. 7 years also. Wow. Contracts like these are what kill teams. Look at a Chicago, Anaheim, Soon to be edmonton. Overpayment. Save the money and get some good value players instead Leafs. Shiny toy isn’t always as good as it seems

 

[naruto]

It's no longer just the big 3 hahahaha.

You're ridiculous.

I wouldn't bother waiting. It's going to be kind of hard considering SJ doesn't have a 1st round pick next year.

Connor McDavid.

I wonder if posts like this would occur if JT signed the exact same contract with Tampa or San Jose rather than Toronto....

Uh, might want to check that? After his rookie year the only season he didn't get at least 66 points was the lockout year. That includes a season he only played 59 games.

Averaged 59 points? He is a career .928 ppg player....which works out to like a 76 point player per 82 games. Like you are really really far off.

Guys, we got em. Like we said

you should care about defense mechanisms on the leafs instead in psychology

Nice new laces on the skates

You need a 2020 first to offer sheet Mathews not the 2019 pick.
Papi’s contract runs out on July 1st 2019 which
Will be about a week after the 2019 draft.

You should worry about defense mechanisms against the leafs

 

[Aoko]

It's no longer just the big 3 hahahaha.

Big 3. Aw, you guys are taking inspiration from basketball terminology.

It's a lot more impressive to have a "Big 3" in basketball though, since you usually have a 12 man roster.

You aren't wrong.

If SJ misses the playoffs, they defer to their 2020 first round pick anyway.

Unsurprisingly, the narrative has drastically changed with a vocal group of folks. Tavares is now overpaid at $11mill per. What a shock.
