Leafs sign Komarov

 

Maybe if we signed Grabo too we'd actually get somewhere

 

I'd love that as well but I'm sure he wants nothing to do with the Leafs at this point.

[Slot Machine]

Also. LOL at Greg Millen being an advanced stats guy, would never have expected that.

[Dylan]

Lol @ the stralman deal

 

Kormarov 4 years almost 3per?

[GD]

4/12 for Komarov? Seems a bit expensive for someone not even at a full seasons' worth of games but hey, he did play well.

[Slot Machine]

Wasn't JFAS always raving about Stralman?

[BTS]

On this day the Leafs have committed $6 million per year to Komarov and Robidas for the next three years. This pleases me immensely.

[Slot Machine]

Not that I understand it all that well but I found this pretty funny.

Komarov is good at hockey so I don't know why lol

Because they're a bad team, and have just spent almost 10% of next year's cap on a 37-year old bottom-4 D and a bottom-6 pest. It's more wheel-spinning. If they had nabbed Vanek, or Moulson, or Stastny and actually improved the team I'd be unhappy, but they haven't actually improved at all.

Komarov is a solid third line winger with pretty solid poss. numbers who's young and in relativity to some of the s*** that happened today, wasn't signed for too high an AAV. Robidas was dumn though. But, maybe it'll lead to some of the d-men getting cleared out for forwards.

Just seems like chair-shuffling. Is Komarov better than Kulemin?

Their most recent years compared, Komarov > Kulie, but Kulie's got a longer track record (more predictave value) and he's been pretty solid in some of those years. Honestly, I'd say they're about even, but I think Kulie's gonna get more money (or would have taken more to retain for the Leafs specifically). So I'd say our outlook is better with Leo than it would have been with Kulie.

It is chair shuffling. I don't get this franchise at all.

Legwand and Vrbata are intriguing options for the Leafs.

 

This is what we've come to. Wow.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Spezza gone!

 

So you're telling me that the Save Spezza rally didn't help???

BTS, you look great in that.

[GD]

Leafs were gonna do Franson/Gorges if he had waived his NTC

 

LOL

Thank goodness Gorges didn't want to come here. It's literally amazing how Nonis and Carlyle are still employed by this organization. What a gong show.

[GD]

Shanaban likes him some greart.

[BTS]

So Marcel Goc is a significantly better player than David Bolland at the same position. Goc gets a year year $1.2 million contract and Bolland gets 5/27.5. The NHL is pathetic and run bu idiots.

[BTS]

BTS, you look great in that.

 

I can't believe you've done this.

[burlingtonbandit]

Its a shame the Senators are being run into the ground by one of sports truly awful owners in Melnyk. That organization actually has so much potential with guys like Karlsson, Turris, Mcarthur, Ryan and Lehner. Even with such a limited budget they could have done way better than Michalek for 3 year/12 million who has concrete knees. I mean Hemsky got that same contract and is head and shoulders the better player.

 

Side Note: the Dallas Stars are going to be a fun team to watch next season. Top 6 F might have the most skill of any in the NHL.

[labadee]

Legwand and Vrbata are intriguing options for the Leafs.

 

this reminds me of the leafs when they got jason allison and co.

[jaysblue]

The Leafs are not built as a team that could play a full 82 game season, let alone the playoffs.

[BTS]

Well, it happened. Dave Bolland got more term and AAV than Grabovski.

[GD]

lol

[Nox]

Well, it happened. Dave Bolland got more term and AAV than Grabovski.

 

While the Bolland signing is obviously egregious, I'm surprised someone actually valued Grabo close to what he's worth. The NHL being retarded and all.

As a Leafs fan, it's so frustrating to see this start to the off-season. They've literally done nothing to add to a 84 point team and barring Gardiner and Reilly making huge leaps next year (and other things needing to go right), it's shaping up to be another disappointing season...

 

Good thing we brought Shanahan in

Leafs are a bit handcuffed. We have Kadri, Gardiner, and Bernier on their final years, all of whom will be RFA next year looking for pay raises. The only salary coming off the books is Colton Orr at 1 million. Spending to the cap would be detrimental to the future of the team. I suspect the leafs will be looking to dump salary some point this season.
