WildCard Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Here come the 5 million Eichel-Matthews comparisons every season. The only good I see coming from this is Eichel will be motivated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hockey capital of Canada gets the pick, their rebuild will be on per with ours, especially now with Stamkos probably going there. I don't mind that we didn't win or move up, but F the leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkard Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) I wonder if the Leafs will still be willing to back up the Brinks truck for Stamkos now. Edited May 1, 2016 by Drunkard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Not really I honestly refuse to believe this ###### isn't rigged at this point oh, it's definitely rigged..... And yeah, the Laughs are gonna get slot better, fast. The difference is that Buffalo was in the hunt for the top pick after tanking with their top prospects playing for the club this year playing how we expected or a little above expectations . The Leafs top prospects were still in the minors getting the occasional call up, in Europe, or dominating juniors. Now throw in American McDavid and it's only going to get better. Would have been funny to see an American team win last year and a Canadian team win this year though..... Also would have been cool to see the Coyotes win the pick to get their local boy who grew up with that team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I think the leafs have quite a few question marks going forward surrounding goaltenders, defense and their wingers.Same boat we're in. They have one good young defender on the back, goalies are a dime a dozen, and Nylander and Marner have them set at wings. Besides an ROR, they're set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robviously Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 So we're drafting a defenseman at 8, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3putt Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Dont ever think the outcome of anything that could impair the Rogers contract isnt going to decided in favor of Rogers. McDavid? Canada. Matthews? Toronto. Hell lets throw the peg a bone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I wonder if the Leafs will still be willing to back up the Brinks truck for Stamkos now.all the talk I heard the last couple days was that winning Matthews would probably take them out of the Stamkos sweepstakes, where as losing the #1 pick would cement them as the favorites to get them and they would go all in.

pastajoe Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 This is the worst friggin outcome No, Edmonton, Toronto, Montreal would have been worse. So who goes after him now? Montreal? Us?

PASabreFan Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Burn in hell Toronto, I hope Matthews sprains his knee in the 1st game of the season. On McDavid's clavicle, which will shatter. (And somehow in the aftermath they'll both lose their senses of taste.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides an ROR, they're setgood goalies aren't a dime a dozen, the problem with Toronto, it seems like its a graveyard for goalies. Reimer has looked better in SJ, and Bernier has gotten worse since getting to TO. Talk is they will try to get Reimer back as a FA. A couple FA defence men and they could be better much sooner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Well I get that :lol: But why? I think their defense is weak. Marner and Nylander don't have size and our forwards are fast and talented enough to keep up with them. Matthews has to beat ROR not jack each night, so good luck. Their gt is bad and their defense has issues. Matthews doesn't make them better than Buffalo. Sam and Jack will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 No, Edmonton, Toronto, Montreal would have been worse. I think Detroit will go hard to replace Datsyuk. unless they can get someone to take Datsyuks contract, I don't think they could afford Stamkos Montreal could go hard after him, and maybe Buffalo too. Otherwise it could be a team we least suspect (a wildcard, like when the Canucks signed Miller....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabresBillsFan Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Leafs will go all in with Stamkos and they would speed up that rebuild I would be happy if we can get Vesey or Cagguila and a defenseman at 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatlander Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) Eichel >> Matthews. This is going to be a crazy rivalry sooner rather than later. I can't wait. Fix!!!!!! Unfortunately Eichel == Matthews. It's been said if Matthews was eligible a year earlier the Sabres would have a tough decision to make.
