[Nhlpowerweek]

Tavares's right hand. A real leader, talker. Vocal. Has been waived. This a big day for the leafs... cause now, as our stand up gezuy, realest and only talker & yeller has been waived. We need A NOTHER ONE. TEAMS ALWAYS NEED THAT ONE ENERGY GUY WHO TALKS. BUNTING IS NOT ENOUGH. WE NEED MORE FOE THE CUP. AND THIS SIMMONDS TYPE DOES NOT HAS TO PLAY. JUST STAND THERE WITH HIS MOUTH OPEN.

1. Bunting is a chirprr, no guts and now gas money one to back him up or slap him
2. Simmonds is what you said, but cannot skate and cannot play a defensive or forecheck game. Been a waste of dressing room stall this year.
now to speculate on the reason and timing before a mod locks this thread...

He's not going anywhere.

 

[Nhlpowerweek]

He's not going anywhere.

Yeah we all hope so. And to the other posters like I already wrote and stated: simmonds does not know how to play anymore. Just stand, talk and fight. Lead and drop Boston bruins goal scorers in the future too. He been doing so this season again. So nothing changes. And simmonds talks.

He doesn't need to play, just being around the team brings great value.

Pre-emptive waiving before the TDL, so Dubas can send him up and down freely to recoup cap and roster spot. Not surprised. I expect he will LTIRetire by end of off season.

 

[GoonieFace]

Isn’t he on waivers like three times a week?

 

[TheVision]

Wayne was a guy I wanted Burke to go hard after in his LA days. In his hey day, Simmonds is exactly what this team has needed for years. Glad he's spent some time home as a Leaf, but those heavy years in LA & Philly have caught up.

Up until his broken wrist, he looked super rejuvenated when he came to Toronto.

Did indeed, sadly, didn't last. And nothing like he was when he was firing on all cylinders. He clearly has plenty of respect for a reason.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

I wish him well, but we'll probably see him next week.

He's a UFA at the end of the season.

With a contract that can be fully buried, no need for him to pretend hes injured.

 

[Sypher04]

Good. Hopefully it’s permanent this time

 

[Pebble live]

Its really too bad he can't skate anymore. I don't need him to score goals, but if he can at least somewhat play his position and f*** guys up when its needed he'd still be useful.

 

[BlackAdam]

Simmonds honestly should retire.
Keefe should not be playing him come playoffs time. Simmonds has shown he is a liability.

 

[Gilmour1996]

Our 4th line must be pretty bad for Keefe to even have thought about putting him in. We need to make a trade to get some toughness, but younger and better toughness.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Hear me out here, we set up an iPad Pro on a tripod directly facing the opposing team's bench. We then playback recordings of Wayne Train absolutely chirping his best chirps all game long. He's not holding anything back, he's pre-recorded chirps for every single player on the other team and just gives it to them.

Who's in???

 

[Maple Leaf]

Dunas needs to acuire some heavyweights

If anyone claims him the Leafs go into heavy matchups undressed

We heard you first time.

Now if someone could translate it to English.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Need to have a sit down and let him know we won't be able to play him with the big club and no other teams want him. Ask him if he'd rather finish the year with the Marlies or hang em up.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Why he was signed for 2 years to beging with.......
