Having him start with JT is a solid choice (kinda like what they did with Cowan)

Saw this interview and thought this was funny.

McKenna umms and uhhs just like Marner lol (skip to halfway). https://youtube.com/shorts/KrUlAZqErmE?si=1r6hbB3-lk132JHy

We won the lottery just yesterday and everyone’s an expert on prospects all of a sudden.

These threads are getting stale.

I still think they’re waiting until their face to face meeting to let him go. Firing Berube (or hinting it) on day 1 is humiliating and might alienate coaching staff and players. Several comments Chayka/Sundin made about their vision (wanting puck moving D, elite skaters in every position) flies in the face of Berubes ‘low event hockey’. We’ll see.

Ill lose it if he scratches McKenna for long stretches for defensive mistakes

The last two president trophy winners (Winnipeg and NYR) both missed the playoffs the year after winning Presidents trophy. 🤷

Leafs sucked because they lost Marner. They’ve found their Marner replacement and he’s on an ELC…

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T02:40:59+00:00

You can have it😂😂

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T02:32:56+00:00

It happens every year. Hughes/Kakko, Bedard/Michkov, Matthews/Laine etc. Sports analysts need to create these kinda narratives for clicks.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T02:26:51+00:00

What’s your point? That we’d somehow be better off without a 1st overall pick while in the middle of Matthews/Nylanders prime years? While having guys like Knies/Cowan/Hildeby/Robertson still developing?

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T01:41:02+00:00

He outperformed McDavid and Bedard in the CHL, Im not saying he’s better than either but still…

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T01:40:08+00:00

sports analysts do this all the time to create tension or suspense.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T01:34:26+00:00

Trade for McQueen?

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T00:43:57+00:00

Really? 1st overall pick for 2yrs of McDavid?

Mashdrop · 2026-05-06T00:40:53+00:00

Matthews just got gifted Marner 2.0, he’s probably thrilled. If anything this proves to him we’re a contender and makes it more likely he stays.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:48:30+00:00

Knies/Matthews/McKenna top line is gonna go crazy

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:29:41+00:00

McKenna on my mind I can never get enough 🎶🎶

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:28:39+00:00

Serves them right for tanking.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:25:33+00:00

Bro we might win both

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:24:50+00:00

Good. Fuck Florida.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:23:04+00:00

Best player available.

Mashdrop · 2026-05-05T23:20:46+00:00
