NHL Off-Season 2014 |OT| - O stands for Overhaul

Well the Griffins are sucking now and the playoffs are still going on... They just need to end so we can start this offseason and watch more Leaf meltdowns during free agency.

Holland to lose his mind and fire Babcock. Cleary to coach veteran team bolstered by grit and character brought by landmark Clarkson trade. "I got him for practically nothing, " Holland said. "I'd be insane to pass on a free deal," he added.
 
All of you begging for Red Wings players are more likely to get Legwand, Alfredsson, Samuelsson, Bertuzzi or Quincey. And I'm sure Crazed would be more than willing to get rid of them.

But that's taking the identity of the Wings away. They don't need young players...

Dat veteran experience...!
 
The Leafs already have an abundance of veteran leadership in Clarkson! Although we will happily give you Clarky for Alfie or Legwand. Seems fair.
 
At first I thought Goldberg was wearing a speedo over his jeans in that picture. Now I see that it's just a fanny pack. The speedo would have been cooler.

Shattenkirk for Kadri, make it so.
 
Seeing a few interesting things about the Leafs on twitter right now.

TOI% of forward lines:

I think Shanahan is behind this Phaneuf thing.

Otherwise, this management team signed Phaneuf to a seven-year deal and then decide within months that they have to shop him around?
 
I actually think Phaneuf isn't bad .. just overpaid.

Exactly. And he's misused by our atrocious coaching staff.

We are in a position right now where Phanny looks worse than he is, so any trade involving him will involve the Leafs getting fleeced. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if his performance improves dramatically after being traded (well that's what happens with nearly every player whom the Leafs let go of, so not exactly a risky guess there).

But who will be left to play Carlyle's passive defensive style :'(
 
Leafs shopping Dijon is great news, but I don't think they'll get much and Carlyle with fuck up whoever they get.

I like Phaneuf, and I think the team will be worse off without him. But if it means being able to keep Gardiner, and get a defenceman who isn't dreadful (ie, Gleason), it's the right move.

Man, Carlyle. The moment things get ugly for the Leafs, and we all know it will, he's going to be crucified, and he could take Nonis down with him.

Hearing lots of interest in #Leafs Phaneuf @ right price. Some clubs tell me they value him btw 5m -6m, meaning Tor must cover remaining

So it looks like Kadri, Gardiner and now Phaneuf will be gone. This is a major shakeup...

Unlike Phaneuf, Spezza's return would be similar to trade deadline rental: Player who can help now, prospect and No. 1 pick. #Sens #Leafs
I wonder what team will be desperate enough to pay that.
