@nylanderthews The idea of moving Knies doesn’t really make sense. He’s the type of player they would need if they got rid of him. The only reason it could be on the table is if there is some internal debate over his long term health. He’s had a couple concussions and some injury troubles.
@ldl716 When Benoit fought, hit everything in sight and blocked shots he was incredible. Then he just stopped doing it to under Berube this season. It was odd.
@Prominent_Bryan Clearly you’ve never played hockey at a competitive level before. It’s the most physical sport that you have to potentially play 28 games and win 16. It’s attrition, more than any other sport. People who don’t play hockey wouldn’t understand though.
@ldl716 This is where pro scouts need to earn their money. It’s about finding the next guy like Tuch, for cheaper. Overpaying him now is a step in the wrong direction for this team.
@fksambennett Part of talking to a lot of candidates is also about gathering intel on other teams. I wouldn’t be surprised if Chayka and Sundin are doing that to a degree. I don’t think anyone really knows where they are in their search. They may also be waiting until after the playoffs…
@MikeSchreiner Mike - We need you and the Liberals and NDP to work together to find a way to get rid of the Cons. Ontario can’t afford this any longer. There must be a way you can all work together and get this province back on track.
@Leafs__21@TheMugNHL@puckempire Thanks for the laugh. Stolarz and Woll are always hurt. And haven’t played well in over a year, essentially. Sure the guy with the Marlies has played well, but he has like 2 games of NHL experience. Hildeby is one of the guys they should keep. Stolarz or
Woll can go first.
@berezin_goal The Leafs need some top 6 wingers. Maybe he can replace
Marner in some ways…good old Canadian boy with loads of skill…he also has some bite Marner never had and might punch someone in the face or slash someone once in a while and play like he cares when the going gets tough.
@PuckDontLie For the record, both of the guys you mentioned are much better than Rielly. He has been awful for a few years. They aren’t getting much for him. A 3rd isn’t out of the question. Likely a bad contract/reclamation project like he is.
