Late night Elliotte NUKE! Toronto gets the #1 FA on the market via sign-and-trade from Tampa Bay. Expect the AAV to be north of 8, but if he continues on with even a ~50 point pace with a low acquisition cost, this will be a remarkable deal for Toronto.

Wooooah

@zackphill Retweeting for awareness

Just thinking maybe the Leafs shouldn’t trade a 23-year-old, 6’3”, 230-pound power forward with a good AAV with term

@specker222 Just feels WILD that there’s apparently any respectable hockey staffers out there whining to insiders that a team is shopping a player… Get real.

@clarkmunroe_ I'm not a Leafs fan, but if you want to see if he's available make an aggressive offer and you will find out.

Boo hoo.

Plans tonight? You've got some now, as @clarkmunroe_ of @IKS_media_SK gets you ready with WCBL Gameday ... youtube.com/shorts/QPOWos2…

Anthony Santander is scheduled to start hitting "either this weekend or next", John Schneider said. So, sometime soon. "There's a shot he could definitely be a factor." Long road from here, which will essentially be a full, slow, Spring Training build-up. We'll see. #BlueJays

Damn. Take your time Lenyn, no need to push it if you can’t. Let your body go as far as it can

Best of luck to all the players, families, and teams as they begin the next chapter of their hockey careers.

@jtbourne THANK YOU!

Knies make’s under 8 mill, is 24, and does so for 7 more years. 30 goal 70 point guy, already proven and with upside. Absolute tank. What are we doing here.

I don't know much, but I do know that Bo Byrum cannot be the key piece in return for a Matthew Knies trade. (Though maybe better than the lineup of teams going "Boy this skilled D we drafted looks like they may not pan out, maybe we can trade them while they still have value!")

@THNRyanKennedy @JFreshHockey THANK YOU

@JFreshHockey As soon as you trade him, you spend the next five years trying to find the next Matthew Knies. I agree, he’s one of the last players they should trade

am I crazy or does trading Matthew Knies make no sense unless they're magically getting a #1 defenceman back for him

@CABCBaseball @ReginaTrappers Scheduled loss night?

@ReginaTrappers Nolan Dezotell on the bump, Nolan Dezotell on the bump…

⚾️ Trappers Game Day ⚾️ Another day. Another opportunity for a DUB! #TrapperNation #LeaveYourMark #Sask🌾

We just saw Chayka make a decently sized trade and hire the head coach without anyone knowing shit yet we’re willing to believe some rumours about Knies and Rielly?

@WatchMyReview Every idea got shat on. No experience Pavelski? How could you possibly… Old guy? Zero creativity. Torts/Roy? Major distraction in this market. There was no winning choice for certain people.

It's weird to hear these takes and yet so many loved Brad Treliving and Craig Berube being hired.

@ctvregina @RadioClayton you better be doing that CornerGas impression

Here’s how to audition for next year’s TeleMiracle ctvnews.ca/regina/article…

Thoughts on Jim Hiller… Bruce Cassidy has Stanley Cup pedigree. Joe Pavelski is a beloved, recently retired player with parallels to Martin St. Louis. David Carle is an up-and-coming, next gen coach who has been dominating the college ranks. Patrick Roy’s an experienced hall of famer with a larger than life personality. People found some reason to get excited about every candidate that emerged - albeit, entirely different reasons for each candidate. The feel-good narrative behind Jim Hiller doesn’t come as naturally. No low hanging fruit. That being said, most of the basis hype around a lot of the other candidates was largely superficial and irrelevant to their chance at success. I’ve never seen so much advocacy for multiple coaching candidates who don’t have a single game behind an NHL bench under their belt. The first thing that jumps out with Jim Hiller is that he’s been here before. In Toronto, that is. He knows Toronto’s best players. And they know him. Safe to assume these relationships worked in Hiller’s favour. Second is his experience. He’s been coaching ever since he stopped playing - well over 20 years, more than half of that in the NHL. Third, he’s not married to a system or style of play. He said as much in his presser. He plans to be versatile and calibrate to the team’s strengths. He plans to experiment. Right out of the gate, he’s alleviated concerns about square pegs and round holes. I haven’t followed Hiller closely in LA or anywhere else. I’ve got a lot of reading, watching, and all-around catching up to do. As it stands, I can’t tell you Hiller’s the guy. I can’t tell you he was the best available choice. I can’t tell you he wasn’t, either. I can only tell you that I’m very intrigued to see him emerge as the successful candidate from a deep pool of talent - Chayka & Sundin had some excellent options - and also that it seems he’s brought in with support from Matthews & Nylander, who know him well. Omission of Rielly is deliberate - not sure where he stands in the org at the moment. Don’t knock the hire just because you don’t understand it or because it seems easier to knock than to support, simply because he’s not the sexy hire. I’ve seen quite a few negative, impulse reactions. Toronto’s chased the sexy hire for years. It feels like this time, they’re serious about vetting for wife material. This much, I support. More to come.

@OverDrive1050 @jonassiegel Cause you have other guys in the depth chart… or can get a different one.

"I don't understand how you just get rid of the goalie who's your best and most reliable." 👀 @jonassiegel is NOT a fan of the Maple Leafs trading Joseph Woll to the Flyers #LeafsForever

@Jay_D_Rosehill Cause the insiders aren’t getting the info they want and they’re getting grumpy.

Why are the Leafs getting heat for “fishing for offers” on Knies? Isn’t that how it works?

Man oh man does well feel poisoned … let’s chat @MapleLeafs fans pull up a chair it feels like it’s been #Leafsforever since we’ve checked in Brought to you by @boxingrockbeer @FreshPrintsHFX
