Every cup team has a #1 defence guy and unfortunately this is just yet another year where they don't have that. Tanev's contract is going to be an anchor sooner than you think
I'm grateful for the opportunity to engage in such meaningful discourse. It's a rare privilege in today's fast-paced world.💞
It doesn't matter!
nope because the leafs are always getting players at the end/last phase of their careers.
old, injury prone, and no depth.
2 injuries and this team is headed for the basement
I don't think anyone can argue in good faith that it's not an objective improvement over what they had last year. Tanev alone fills a hole in their defense that has existed for like a DECADE now.
But what the contracts tell me is that they're REALLY banking on their next two years being "the one," because the ENDS of those contracts are clearly gonna be a serious anchor if the Leafs haven't made serious strides towards a cup by then.
Benoit!
the OEL signing is really bad, not quite as bad as Korpisalo but it has the same problem…too much money and too much term for a guy who should be playing lower in the lineup.
Team still sucks
OEL will be good for the first 2-3 years of that deal. Ship him later will work.
Kleinberg?
This year is a mini rebuild . Defense is rebuilding, so is goaltending. Still need a centre and winger. a cup contender with this many needs, nope small rebuild.
Nyes…
It got from bad to meh…
Tanev will barely play 50% of the season
TML should have gone after Roy or Pesce who can actually play 1st pair minutes.
This team as is a guaranteed 1st round playoff exit!
I like it. Looking forward to it. Just want Marner and Tavares gone
Still one of the worse defensive group of all playoff bound teams. Another year they don't have a single top pairing defensemen. Last year OEL had 32 pts in the regular season and 6 pts on the playoffs… what resurgence?
if they EVER get past a 2nd round in the playoffs then we'll talk – disgruntled Leafs fan
Leafs will do same thing they did with hyman..let marner walk and he will go be absolutely fantastic or even win a cup somewhere else…the player that needs to go is jt…
Hakka will be ready second half of the season…big addition on the right.. buckle up
OK there are a lot of options right now on D, assuming they gel for the most part and not suffer too many injuries; this core would be the quite sound going into the playoffs without even having to make a trade deadline upgrade.
It'll do for a start. I think if we're going to make the Cup, it'll be a flash in the pan thing; this year or never, because of how Berube helped St. Louis won it; then watched as St. Louis collapsed after the captain Petrangelo left for Vegas (where he won another one last year).
The key is that Berube understands where the work needs to be done if you want to go deep in the playoffs: defensively and in net, as he showed with the first moves St. Louis made after he got onboard, bringing Binnington up from the minors and getting their defensive game to be near-flawless.
NO MORE getting show horses at the front end at the expense of the back end; Toronto has far more than enough (likely too many).
Nothing is going to change..the problem wasnt defense in the playoffs..it was the group cant score worth a sh!t when it matters
No because morgan reilly is still there 😊
