I love Robertson, he could fit in on majority of the top teams solid. The leafs are just too stacked up against the top 9 we have
The problem is Keefe has runied the chances of trading Robertson or Timmins for anything worth while anymore.
Keefe never plays them and if he did maybe they could actually see what they are but like this they are just a complete waste on the roster , if you trade them they are really worth nothing pretty much.
I want the Roots sweater Steve's wearing.
Then scratch Marner he barely shows up and turns over the puck more then any other TML, then there is Brodie who is just sucking this year but still plays top pair no matter what.
Honestly was a promised talent i just dont think he has it in the NHL , too small too soft gets injured alot , kills it in the ahl but thats where it stays unfortunately , remember tj brennan ? Doing nothing now because he came up and got crushed
Trading Robertson is a mistake unless it nets us a top 4 DD
To me it's always been a Keefe thing and I think it was a move implemented initially by Dubas. Is there not a long list of examples of players who couldn't get a proper shot in regards to minutes and playing in certain spots. I think it was to keep players from becoming to "valuable" in terms of contract . I know we are stacked with the core 4 so it's hard to get those minutes but I think there is more to it
Can we not give the kid a sniff on the second PP even on the left point? Gio is there and he has zero points on the PP
12 points in 25 games is a bargain for 775,000 AAV.
get him a copy of GSP's Rush Fit… 😉
I like Robbie, but he's not beating out knies or bertuzzi for a top 6 spot and I don't think he's the right fit on the 3rd. Moving on from him is what's best for the team and the player.
Trade him,
I feel like he is going to take a much longer window to develop than we have. Kinda think Cowan might crack the lineup over him next year. Also We are very low on assets. I’d definitely consider using him as a chip for the right piece
Yah they should trade what is a good depth piece and a player on a cheap deal to really find a more expensive option.
Holmberg is more talented. Robertson has the better shot.
Leafs need a player like Robertson for his cap hit and his offensive upside. He's still growing and learning, that's okay. I know as soon as he has a bit of space with the puck, it's probably going in the net.
