PK doesn't know how to defend, you guys wouldn't like him.

nah we'll like him because in our home opener frost will say "from toronto, ontario!"

that like gives him twice as much leeway compared to "from madison, wisconsin"

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

plz b good Freddie

If he becomes another Bernier... lol.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Mirtle said Yandle could land here, but I doubt it. We need to move Beauchemin just so we can protect Johnson, Barrie and Zadorov.

Protect Barrie from who? Roy?

 

[Samyy]

Feels like too much money tbh better find a way to dump Bernier

 

[zroid]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

 

[DopeyFish]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

16th highest paid goalie in the league

fuck

 

[Fata1moose]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

:lol What the hell.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Panthers have acquired contract rights to Keith Yandle

 

[Brinbe]

More than I would've thought. Damn. It's a risk, but let's hope they get this one right.

If they're assuming he's a league-average starting goalie going forward, then I guess he's getting paid accordingly. Rebuild definitely accelerates nonetheless.

 

[Coldnoodle]

16th highest paid goalie in the league

fuck

THATS GOOD

 

[yyzjohn]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

This could be the new management's first big blunder if it doesn't work out. Fuck man, things were going so well too.

 

[Samyy]

A good point I saw on Twitter is that they'll probably want to be as competitive as possible while Matthews/Marner/Nylander are on ELCs

 

[Simon Belmont]

Wow. I would have thought something with a 4 at the front at most. Goalie market is baffling.

 

[shadowkat]

I don't know how to feel about this.

And 5 years already?!

And $5.5 million. Oh boy.

 

[Coldnoodle]

As a Leafs fan I'm happy with that deal.

 

[MultiJhonny]

I don't know how to feel about this.

When you see the one you gotta put a ring on it

 

[Yawnier]

Lou on TSN overdrive right now

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

6th rd for the trade, 4th if he signs. Cats working on a 6yr deal.

 

[Red_Man]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

6th rd for the trade, 4th if he signs. Cats working on a 6yr deal.

So in the end what did the Rangers get out of that trade?

 

[DopeyFish]

THATS GOOD

to put in perspective


he's now our highest paid player

 

[ElephantShell]

"We don't want anyone to get excited" - Lou on if their expectations have changed for next season.

 

[zroid]

A good point I saw on Twitter is that they'll probably want to be as competitive as possible while Matthews/Marner/Nylander are on ELCs

that's exactly why I thought they should try to solidify their goaltending ASAP

just hope this bet pans out, it's definitely a risk

 

[Cactus]

Eh, I'm ok with 5.5

 

[DopeyFish]

"We don't want anyone to get excited" - Lou on if their expectations have changed for next season.

excitement = expectations = pressure = failure

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Actually word is Cats still expect Campbell and Kulikov may be traded.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

"We don't want anyone to get excited" - Lou on if their expectations have changed for next season.

Maples Leafs hockey.

 

[Cake Boss]

Mirtle says it is exactly $5.5M

ooooof

 

[MultiJhonny]

It's funny seeing Leafs fans actually excited.

They will just be sad for years to come still

[Fata1moose]

Like spend 5.5mx5 years on someone you just acquired excited, don't get that excited.

The anti dopey

 

[Samyy]

Sounding like AAV might be lower than 5.5? Conflicting reports it seems.

 

[DopeyFish]

Just received from Vesey's agent: "Jimmy's intent at this time has not changed and is prepared to become a free agent on August 15." #Sabres

Ahahah

 

[zroid]

Now CapFriendly is saying it's $5M x5 ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

that would be a bit better

 

[yyzjohn]

Overdrive should have asked Lou.

"I cannot confirm or deny that any contract was signed"

I wouldn't say excited. Cautiously optimistic.

I have been burned before.

Nah I'm getting excited.

Anderson is a #1 goalie. And come July 1st there is a solid chance Leafs will get Stamkos.

 

[Samyy]

Don't think we have the cap space tbh

 

[yyzjohn]

That's far from a sure thing man. Anderson to a five year deal is a huge gamble.

 

[iBeleaf]

5.5 yikes

Was expecting 4.5 to 5 range

 

[Simon Belmont]

Lou, uh finds a way.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Nah I'm getting excited.

He was also behind the best defense in the league last season.

 

[MultiJhonny]

It's nice to see all the Leafs fans here for their regular season

 

[Kave_Man]

You dumb nerds! Stop worrying now and worry when he lets in the first shot on goal next season.

 

[Yawnier]

Andersen is absolutely a #1. Great pick up for the Leafs. We got FLEEEEECED.
