Dubas stands pat at the deadline, goes with the girls that brung him

Reaquires Calle Rosen from Colorado for Hutchison, the Hutch era is over, the Rosen era resumes

Signs Jake Muzzin to a 4 year extension at $5.65 million AAV

Really has no choice, they have no replacement for Muzzin, but they traded a lot for him as well

It's about as good a deal as could be hoped for with a 31 year old Muzzin, four years at five and change

This team's not really contending, so better to just keep your powder dry, can't be fixed overnight

Couldn't get anyone to take Barrie then?

Not for anybody that was going to add more than Barrie this season, he's not throwing the towel in

I mean, he still has to try to make the playoffs, his plan is clearly that the team will have to play better

His trade deadline "acquisitions" will be to get Morgan Rielly & Codi Ceci back in March

To wit, stay the course

Vladislav Namestnikov for a fourth round pick, decent rental, minimal price, that works.

Loafs @ Bolts 1900h EST / 0000h GMT

Womp-womp, Dubas.

Dubas is a slow start to next season away from getting fired next year, especially if the Leafs don't make it.

Shanny too, they'll all go in a clean sweep. Shanny & Dubas are like Batman & Robin, they come as a set

They have Dubas' replacement already, they can just promote Lawrence Gilman to GM

They have a Keefe replacement in house as well, they can promote Hackstol

Keefe in particular is flaming out fast, he's a total passenger, the players have tuned the AHL coach out already

Pouty Time is running the asylum, nobody puts Baby Huey in a corner

Maple Leafs get a defenceman on trade deadline day


He was here the whole time!

Jake Muzzin's extension in TOR includes a no-movement clause for next season before converting to a no-trade clause and 10-team no-trade in future years.

The Leafs ARE NOT required to protect him in the Seattle expansion draft.

https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/2020 ... -extension

Affordable term limited 4 x 5.65 AAV increase of only 1.65 more than his current cap hit

Bonus laden front loaded contract to make it moveable at the back end

1 year protected, then tradeable/draftable

Hometown discount, could have gotten more money & term on the open market

The game meal for tonight is winter bbq angus cheeseburgers, fries with gravy, and coleslaw

The Loafs are in tough, desperate for a win, but could still get rolled by the Sunshine State Warriors

The Bolts have lost two in a row and Stamkos just went off about it, so they are in a surly mood

Get hype

[Smitty-48]

The Loafs came out full of piss and vinegar,

but by about the halfway point of the period Tampa has been caving them in

They could barely touch the puck to get out of their zone, Sandin gets rolled by Kucherov

0-1
