I know they discussed it on this show in particular but you don’t always need a big money goalie to win a cup. As a matter of fact for many years that wasn’t the case at all.
Toronto just spent so much money at forward that they’ve been starting bums and reclamation projects.
Trading Marner for Soros or more assets for Marsktrom is not a net positive move when your D is still an overpaid Reilly and six other bums.
Build from the D out with a couple 5 million dollar starters and you’re set.
If anything, if you’re trading Marner to Nashville they should be asking for Askarov, instead of Soros.
Until leafs have picks or young talent teams want, that's the truth
NEWS FLASH!!
Autistic Matthews still cannot even spell the word INTENSITY…
But ya that Marner guy is the cause of all the leafs problems.
Keep on leafing leafer's!!
Dangle and Wylde has a fire in their relationship, this is awesome content honestly
Lmao going to play 45 to 50 games, someone to fill in the gaps, that's almost half the season fools
Spot on, sbout leafs being used in negotiations.
To be fair, even if Woll is your guy for the future, a guy like Markstrom is not a bad idea for the Leafs. Especially if they can get Calgary to retain some of it.
Think about what happened in Boston with Swayman. When Tuukka retired Swayman had already proved he had NHL talent but, what he hadn't done was prove he could do it over the course of a full season and into the playoffs yet. So, the Bruins signed Linus Ullmark to a 4-year $5M AAV deal.
Just, like you Steve I hated the idea of spending that much cap on a goalie when we have a guy like Swayman sitting in the wings but, it turned out to be the best possible thing for Sway's development. He never had to take on more than he could handle because Ullmark was always there as well.
Now, Sway has turned into one of the best in the league and Ullmark is one of the hottest names on the trade market. That signing turned out to be an absolute gem. Even if we don't trade Ullmark and let him walk as an UFA, it was still a great signing.
I know the bit with Woll getting hurt in the last game trying to save that is good, but if he just let it go in people would be like "lol why didn't he even try?"
From the flames perspective this makes no sense. Who are the leafs going to trade? Marner? Calgary already has an overpaid dilettante.
yeah I agree, I don't see Calgary doing any dealing with the Leafs.. so, let's say they do sign Brossoit.. Can they run with this depth ( Woll, Brossoit, Jones and Hildeby)? So, let's say Woll gets 40 games, Brossoit get 25 games? You can give Hildeby say 7-8 games just to see what he is, where he is develpment wise. That leaves Jones to take 9-10 games? That is if everyone stays healthy, but it's a huge IF. What do you do if/ when Woll either faces an injury that has him out 10+ games? Are they confident running with Brossoit and Jones for part of the season? If Woll struggles or has injury issues this season, what then? Move him to a backup position, load managing him to 20-25 games and run with Brossoit? He is eager to play more games but what if he struggles/ fails? There are a lot of tangibles in this that have to be considered. Do they sign Brossoit for 3 years, give Woll this season to see if he can handle top minutes and make a decision from there? They could, then try to address it at free agency but who would be available at that time? I would imagine Brossiot will be signed by someone before then. If they did run with Woll, Brossoit and Jones and their 3 goalies, they could wait until Marner, Tavares and Reilly come off the books ( not sure if they'd be interested in bringing Reilly back or not) and they would free up a ton of cap sapce to then go look for a "sexier" name in net? This cap situation they dug themselves into has really handcuffed them
Dark horse Carter Hart
Sorry but brossoit is a better goalie right now then woll , woll is good but way too injury prone man cant trust him and when hes good its not like hes wow omg hes like top 5 star goalie hes way over hyped for such little sample size
The leafs are involved with everybody 😒 insufferable team
I'd rather bring back Samsonov than spend anything significant to get Markstrom
As someone who lives in Calgary, I guarantee Treeliving is begging Conroy for Markstrom! Treeliving begs 31 other GM's for everything they have, and is willing to give up everything he has just to make said shitty Deal…good luck TO😂
I would go with Woll as the number 1 all seasoon give the kid a chance
