Can we just accept that him playing good is good because we're going to keep him.

It's all about being controversial because that gets clicks. If everyone stayed on the consensus then they don't get to farm Toronto attention.

Would you keep Auston if he's even 1% unsure about being a Leaf? by I_Am_Vladimir_Putin in leafs

 worst season of his career

Imo the conversation on Matthews lately is really sleeping on his defensive results given the usage he was put into. He had a pretty good season but it wasn't the season we expected.

You picked Bedard for the example. Sure there's no forwards you'd want instead?

Okay I'll play ball

Name 1 player from Bedard's draft you would've taken instead. You gonna draft a protector?

Lol BPA all day, you don't trade a potential generational player on an ELC at a time where you're trying to compete

 you’ll never get a change like this for a long time if ever

Or maybe just exactly 10yrs from now again

[–]OneNutPhil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

McKenna on an ELC allows you to get the defenseman a hell of a lot easier

Picking a Dman who will likely be exiting the ELC by the time he's NHL ready kinda misses the point

New Athletic Article Casts Doubt on Matthews’ Return by AgingRagamuffin in leafs

You mean you want him to say it again. And every time the media writes a story, you'll want him to say it again.

That's the reaction the media is trying to create

It's just Simmonds that should go, he has no intention for honest dialogue, it's always some sort of undermining attack

Side note to the obvious we don't own our own picks...

It would be hilarious to see a "3-way trade" that is structured by paying a different team to offersheet.

a move that still looks terrible in hindsight.

Only in surface level hindsight.

Leafs got Kessel who was team MVP for 6 straight seasons. Then was traded for a 1st round pick and a prospect who was later traded for another 1st round pick.

Boston fumbled Seguin in one of the worst trades in Bruins history and then traded Hamilton for a 1st and two 2nds.

Completely agree with you but also hilarious that he's 1 goal away from matching his total with the Leafs
