Nope Correy Perry is a curse
17-18 million for Mathews? What is the maximum contract in the NHL NOW please.?
LoL love it. Scott for GM.
Amazing analysis 100 percent right😊
100 percent agree with Scott Toronto have to move one or two of the 4 core to get the best players that are available and bring in a much more balanced roster
Has Jay ever fought Scott? lol
Finally three people think the way I think about the Leafs not afraid to tell the truth about them
Great interview! Completely agree with Scott!
Should read Ken Dryden Book on….How to Have a Successful Hockey Team….The Leafs r following the Blue Print!!…but the fans r not happy!!!!
Perfect, honest analysis! I've said it to so many people… beating Tampa in the first round this year does NOT count, because they were outplayed for the majority of the series. Period. Big changes are required
WIllie hears footsteps ,does not finish his check,and quits on the play looking to the sky then engages a second too late. These are cardinal sins.
As much as I normally disagree with anyone Scott says… He's bang on! Also Rosie needs to get an assistant coaching role with he Leafs lol. Get the boys going!
One of the greatest All-Stars until the Habs (Bettmans donkey) buried him.
Everything that was said by the 3 gentleman is true , and they are going to hire a GM that will not have complete power he will be useless in my opinion
Agreed AM leaves for less tax, less media, better weather.
I'm tired of seeing Leaf players traded and winning the Cup with other teams! Get rid of Taveres! too old!
Everyone knows they have to move two of them…. The question is why don’t the brass at top see it ?.even a goof like me who just sits and watches the game can see this
Tertiary not terturary…..
Look at Thachuk salary and tell me Matthews or Nylander can demand significantly more. Nylander will want a raise, how do you possibly pay him close to 9.5? Even Austin, sure he is a center, but would you trade AM for Thachuk straight up? Answer is likely yes, so how can he demand some stupid number.
Nylander is gonna come in and ask for 9m+ I have no idea how you even consder it.
Matthews, rumour is 13-15. I would maybe consider 13×8 but that anything higher, I have no idea how you pay the rest of the team.
I sooooooooo agree with these guys.
Trade Marner because he is softer than a soup sandwich, and Tavares is constantly having a conversation with himself instead of scoring. Hopefully he's talking himself into retirement.
Thank God that Holl will finally be gone.
Hire John Scott immediately. Man with the plan and the cojones.
There’s to many hockey fans these days that base things around what works for them on EA sports. On video games the intensity never changes at the start of the playoffs. Guys aren’t afraid to get hit in the corners, and bail on loose pucks, or turn them over out of fear. Defensemen don’t start hearing footsteps after taking 3-4 solid hits in a series. In video games skilled forwards don’t refuse to leave the perimeter out of fear of getting their noses dirty the way the Leafs core 4 have proven repeatedly that they are going to be. Of course the core 4 need to be split up. However, everywhere you go you have fanboys making excuses for why splitting up these guys will automatically mean no playoffs, and a full on rebuild. Maybe that’s true, maybe not, but who cares? If it takes no playoffs for a year, or two to build a team capable of making a quality run at a cup, then so be it. When a team hasn’t won a cup since 67, and hasn’t even been to a Conference Final since 94, then just making the playoffs can no longer be the goal. Being successful once you’re there needs to become the number 1 priority. If the leafs go through this summer retooling around the same core players for next year, then to me the organization will have proven at that point that all they really care about is hosting 3 or 4 home playoff games. You can’t just sit there being satisfied every season for making the playoffs, or winning a single round, but MLSE seems to be.
Scott for GM
dump Tavares, trade Matthews
and get Marner to take less, he made his money.
Stick with Willy, i would keep Rielly
i said that from day one, paying 5 guys all the money, no money left
see how hard those guys like Kampf, Schenn, etc work
NO COREY PERRY
DUBAS HAS DONE A CRAP JOB
MOVE MATHEWS NYLANDER, TAVARAS TO THE FOURTH LINE or MINORS MARNER WILL LEAVE ON HIS OWN SOONER THAN LATER SO TRADE HIM NOW.
NO WAY YOU CAN BUILD A TEAM AROUND NYLANDER AND RILEY
'YOU' are 'fired' before you ever got hired,…
Good day
Finally, a voice of reason…thanks, Big John.
I agree that Matthews seems to lack grit but not every player on a team needs to be that sort of player. They've put some tough players like O'Reilly and Acciari, so why can't they gel next year? I don't like the idea of scrapping what is a very good team rather than adding to it with players like Matthew Knies.
So this chud gets a make a wish participation ribbon at an allstar game where his peers basically pitied him enough to allow goals and now he's doing cringe clickbait.
Just go get a real job dude.
Leafs need players like Tom Wilson! Not slugs like John Scott! Players that can not only enforce the game, but can also contribute to the score sheet! LOL John Scott was funny as hell as an NHL player! A goon that was a waste of time! Shit even Phil Kessel made a fool out of this waste of skin!
It looks like it’s going to be same all, with the Leafs. Keefe is staying, and they’ll keep the buttercups. I thought it was Dubas, but I’m starting to think it’s Shanahan.
