Id be surprised, this is prob the weakest Leafs team of the Matthews/Marner era, but I guess come playoffs you never know.

 

This Boston team still doesn't have me convinced, might be a good matchup for Toronto actually - definitely better than Florida.

Yeah…Boston isn’t as deep. Did they replace Bergeron and Krejic?

Boston always plays with swagger.  It goes a long ways when they play mentally fragile teams like Toronto.

The soft underbelly lol

It is what it is now. Until they get Lekkerimaki and another forward there really wasn’t much they could do. It would be nice to call up Autu Raty and see if he can produce.

Maybe?  I didn’t see it on the list they just showed.  That would make sense, though. 

 

Yeah, looks like a 2026 after they traded it for Hertl lol

 

"The one thing I think we were looking for, we wanted a first-round pick in this deal,” Flames general manager Craig Conroy told the Flames website. “To be able to get a first-round pick, a third that could turn into a second if they win the first round of the playoffs, and then to be able to get Miromanov to come back and add depth to what we already have, that was a big part of it, too. We were looking for three pieces and we were able to get three pieces. It's never easy. These deals are hard, but we're very happy with the return and now we're looking forward to moving forward."

 

 

No, this wasn’t the windfall fans hoped the trade deadline’s top defensive product would net the retooling Flames.

 

The first-round pick considered as the basis of any deal was included, but it doesn’t come until 2025, that is unless it’s a top-10 pick or the Knights trade that pick before Friday’s deadline.

 

If so, the first-rounder is in 2026.

 

The third-rounder becomes a second rounder if the Knights win a first-round series this year.

 

The Flames would probably have preferred a top young prospect in the deal, but instead got an intriguing, 26-year-old Russian who has worked his way through the ECHL, KHL and AHL, where the six-foot-four, 207-pound right-handed defenceman had an impressive 11 goals and 40 points in 53 games two years ago.

 

-they also have a first next year from Florida in the Tkachuk deal so they have 2 in each of the next 3 years.

Yeah, I don’t get it either, unless they really want Joshua on the 3rd line, but he’d be a better fit in the top 6 than those 2.

well thats why rick is the coach and we are just fans 🙂
