  1. Robertson is a nasty prick on the ice and therefore deserves a premium. He's worth his weight in Gold, and he should have been slotted up on the top 2 lines when injuries pop up. I get that he wants to move on, but his options are limited at this point. He's going to have to grin and bear it.

  2. I don’t understand why people are so high on him.

    Knies and McMann have all passed him on the depth chart.

    He’s not able to play in our top 6 and doesn’t fit the bottom 6. He turns the puck over a lot.

    Should have been traded when he got hot last year.

    I was commenting and heard Steve mentioned him being lapped. So there it is.

    Thank you for your service and good luck.

  3. Would love to see Nick in Dallas with his brother, but I don't think there's a real fit or package that would make sense at this point.

  4. I think it is time for Nick R. to slot into Bertuzzi's slot. This is his chance to play big minutes and prove he belongs.

  5. This isn't going to end badly, surely not. Everyone now rushing to point out hes injury prone and a defensive liability in the fan base will SURELY make him want to stay. Right? And if that's true, why is everyone trying so hard to make sure hes stays in Toronto? What happened to the "If you don't wanna play here, leave" Mentality?

  6. The smartest player on the Leafs !!
    You have to get off that team if you hope to go anywhere in the playoffs.
    Otherwise, you’re just enjoying the view.
    The other boys should do the same if they knew what was good for them.
    Blinded they are by the dark side.

  7. Oh I for sure miss Sandin. I thought he slotted perfectly as a future #2 LD. But I am happy with the Cowan pick. So it worked out.

  8. The Toronto Maple Leafs= Dallas Cowboys. Always talked about, always hyped. But inevitably fail when the lights shine the brightest.

  9. The reason Robertson is angry and Wants out is because they offered him a 2 year extention of his current contract which is a 2 way contract which allows him to be shipped to the AHL as needed, thus he doesn't want to be pushed into AHL status.

  10. Yes, the Leafs don’t play him enough. But we’re all forgetting about all the injuries he’s had that has slowed his progress. That’s a huge factor in this too. Robertson needs to be patient.

  11. Unless Toronto gets bought and moved to the Us by an American Franchise or any Canadian team the chances of them winning a cup is doubtful. I know nothing about hockey but I know enough to know that.

  12. stamkos basically admitted that he and march tampered by calling and asking if they were signing with nashville. he said it in an interveiw

  13. Only players the leafs could trade and maybe win the trade is Matthews or Nylander everyone else you pathetic leaf fans over value and no teams want

  14. What about Robertson for heinola on the jets? He seems like a defender they might be giving up on, but could be a reclamation project for us
