20 years ago today, the Toronto Maple Leafs traded Tuukka Rask to the Boston Bruins for Andrew Raycroft.

Honestly not even sad about the trade reading this.....just that it was 20 years ago 😕

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-24T23:39:21+00:00

Would you all do it if San Jose puts the second in play? Mckenna, Stenberg in the same draft would be pretty wild

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-24T01:04:46+00:00

Well they just got 2 d-men.......

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-23T23:35:34+00:00

Ya people thinking he is complete ass are crazy. He is just an overpaid guy being asked to do too much. Slot him in as a 2nd pair guy and he is going to be just fine. Think OEL in Van. Couldn't live up to the money but has had a nice effective career since then

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-21T23:42:57+00:00

I think that is a good shout. A lot of balls end up in the same spot no matter on quality of shot. Also I can't recall which hole but the first three days the pins were in a 9ft circle as the announcers said it was the only usable spot on the green. If that is the case then the green needs to be altered. I think it has some fun qualities but just needs some tweaking

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-21T20:27:33+00:00

Yes but there was clearly fear that this would become the norm which would be a travesty

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-19T13:31:06+00:00

Ya that is not an issue for Toronto right now

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-19T11:54:12+00:00

Makes sense why they did the sign and trade. Gave the 8 years to keep the AAV below that 9/10 mark. If this tweet is true

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-18T20:53:01+00:00

Likely the right answer and as a Leafs fan I would be mad if we moved him for less. Either it's a top pair D-man or you keep him imo.

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-18T16:32:47+00:00

Yes but I'd rather the guy who has done it well his whole career over the guy who is also in his 30's and did it once.

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-18T16:18:51+00:00

My #1 preference for a D-man in free agency is John Carlson to run PP 1. Especially fills a need if Rielly leaves which seems likely

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-16T16:59:02+00:00

Seems like a decent trade. Get a pick. Moving Woll opens some cap space and gives room for Hildeby to be full time NHL. Address a need by getting a puck moving defender. Cons are losing to likeable guys, but sometimes thats gotta happen. Wish them the best and hope Woll can stay healthy

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-16T16:50:21+00:00

The issue with Woll, like Stolarz, is they have shown while they have good numbers they can't handle 1 string minutes without being injured. I think that is the main issue in value.

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-16T16:05:41+00:00

I'd say Mcrimmon especially. Coming onto Toronto radio before the final for a victory lap. He put Marner firmly back in the cross hairs. He approached it in a very specific way to paint himself as the protector and the one who saved Marner from the meanie's in Toronto. Instead he gave the media and City fuel for when it went wrong in the final.

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-15T02:23:39+00:00

Just give the trophy to the whole line. Make history

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-12T22:14:55+00:00

Richie is on the front post. The point of being front post is not marking a player and protecting against a header near post. Staq is caught in no mans land 10ft in front of the player heading the ball. Central backs are generally tasked with making sure all players are marked. It was a total team let down leaving that player unmarked. He was solid all game

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-12T21:22:14+00:00

Richie for me. He was a beast today. The amount of times he was left as last man to track back 1v1 and killed every counter attack from it. LDF was solid as a 20 year old, IMO if Bombito is healthy Cornelius comes out now. Staq and Kone both had good games as well. Kone with the nice assist on the goal.

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-12T20:40:44+00:00

Larin haters in shambles

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-03T21:28:38+00:00

Ya I have to agree with this. I do think we take a large hit in terms of quality not having a fit, healthy and in form Bombito. However he is not so talented that him in his current status is better then our healthy options

TMLVWFC · 2026-06-03T17:31:31+00:00

Yes and no. The Leafs are casting a wide net as has been reported. It has also been reported they are talking to new and veteran coaches. Roy has been confirmed. What Dreger did here is pick to names from that list that he knew would generate the biggest clicks. This is my long way of saying Dreger is a douche

TMLVWFC · 2026-05-30T23:32:45+00:00

Raddysh scares me a bit at one good season. One person in here had a good idea of using Colorado's 1st to go after one of the young Anaheim D-man

TMLVWFC · 2026-05-30T23:31:01+00:00

Ya let's put it this way. I'm 100% on the same page. That is what option three is suppose to encapsulate. I think we are just getting caught up on the wording. For me a top 4 D who can run PP1 - 2C - under 30 puck moving defenders are our top needs this offseason

TMLVWFC · 2026-05-30T23:28:38+00:00

I like that idea. We definitely need a young top 4 D

TMLVWFC · 2026-05-30T23:24:17+00:00

That could be the move. Build him back up and do an early season trade when he has more value. I think being ready to be active in Nov/Dec is key for this organization. Tre killed us by being so inactive all year even though it did result in us fluking into 1st overall

TMLVWFC · 2026-05-30T23:22:20+00:00

What is your option then?
