@Tassy80 @RJH1985 @nylanderthews zero nhl experience by choice teams have circled him for years

@RJH1985 @nylanderthews But zero NHL experience.. everyone is suggesting they’d give up their 1st born son to get this guy when in reality, he should be the one knocking on every NHL team’s door.

Friedman on the FAN Hockey Show says the Leafs have legit interest in David Carle, they wouldn't waste their time if they didn't The biggest challenge with him is he's got a young family and a great set up Family has been #1 for him, is it the right time to move them?

@nylanderthews 1 year leafs dal pays for his great grandchildren to go to university if he’s a family man you take Toronto money

BREAKING: The New Orleans Pelicans are hiring Jamahl Mosley as the franchise's new head coach on a five-year contract, sources tell ESPN. Mosley accepts the Pelicans job after five seasons in Orlando where he guided the Magic to three consecutive playoff berths.

@simmonssteve I spoke to 12 people in hockey and the words used to describe Steve Simmons liar, asshole, rat

As reported by who? Baseball has a courtesy that hockey seems to lack.

@adukeMN Minor changes then moved Randle to the bench lol

My prediction for the Wolves offseason is that they end up making a minor tweak and getting younger Something like this PG-Ayo SG-Ant SF-Jaden PF-Naz C-Rudy 6th-(Randle return) 7th-TJ 8th-Bones 9th-Joan 10th- Clark 11th-Mike 12th-2026 first round pick Two way- Rocco

@reporterchris @Steve_Dangle Curious how many people remain from the Shanny intel take over… crazy that for a guy that never won he employed some really good people over the last 12 years

The #leafs announce the departure of two assistant GMs: cap guru Brandon Pridham is mutually parting ways with the team after 12 years, while Derek Clancey is also out.

@ScooterSkol Kg was 31 ant is 24 are you fucked

Is it wrong to say let Ant go and be the best someplace else? It’s like when KG outgrew the wolves and won his ring.

@JonKrawczynski We are LUCKY to have you as this tesms reporter everyone out grows minny but not Jon

Much more to come this offseason, but just wanted to thank you all for following, reading and engaging during my 22nd season on the Wolves beat. I love covering this team for you all. Grateful for the support you’ve shown.

@GBreadBall @TFllash_ @SwipaCam Didn’t we say the same thing about Big Ben lol

@TFllash_ @SwipaCam Just because he can’t shoot doesn’t make him unplayable on offense. Lots of great short roll playmaking & connective passing, I think he’s the easiest player by far to plug into a winning team than the other 3 on this list.

Christian Braun, Dyson Daniels, Josh Giddey and Naz Reid are making the exact same amount of money. Rank those 4 you’d want going forward:

@BunjBKM @JonKrawczynski Soccer it’s considered strategic advantage to fake injuries your advocating for the same in the nba shame on you my friend

@JonKrawczynski I'm so fucking sick of people complaining about flopping. Great players and great teams know how to play the game within the game. Life is not fair. Play the game and don't complain.

I think Wemby might be the best player in the league right now. That means we can’t have this

@ChaseRayman @DaneMooreNBA You can’t win if u don’t make shots

@DaneMooreNBA Agree. Hope they beat OKC. We got out coached too

Anthony Edwards: “Tip my hat to them. They the better team.”

@DaneMooreNBA Say whatever you want about finch but shooting 40/106 is never going to win u a game no matter how good the coach is

@JonKrawczynski Randle can not be back next year this team took a massive step back this season.

That's only the 4th turnover for the Wolves all game. They just can't make a shot to save their lives.

@DwayneNHL I really doubt they move Knies but the maple leafs haven’t had the opportunity to draft a Top D since Reilly who is the longest tenured player. They haven’t had the opportunity to Replace him with another Top 10 drafted Defender and there’s quite a few good ones this year

Fans laughing at #Blackhawks offering the #Leafs 4th overall pick for Matthew Knies suffer from serious "Mystery Box Syndrome." People get hung up on draft pedigree because Knies was a late 2nd-rounder, completely ignoring the player he actually became. Knies is a 6'3", 235lb power-forward unicorn on a trajectory for 30+ goals and 70+ points. He’s young, cost-controlled, and exactly what every contender starves for. Meanwhile, some fans think a 4th overall pick is a potential superstar. Sure, but not always, there's just as many busts there as players that end up as good or better than Knies. You could easily be getting someone like these 4th overall picks: • Griffin Reinhart • Thomas Hickey • Jesse Puljujarvi Yes you could also draft a Mitch Marner, Cale Makar, Brady Tkachuk etc Draft picks are lottery tickets. Knies is a proven, top-line modern power forward. Kyle Davidson trading an unknown asset to put a guaranteed monster next to Bedard isn't crazy.. it’s just smart asset management. Gamble vs the guarantee. I love Knies, i wouldn't be jumping for joy to lose him even for 4th overall. 4th overall means the Leafs can draft a potential #1C in Maholtra or #1D potentially in Verhoeff or Carels, smidts etc.. But there's no guarantee any of those guys reach that type of ceiling . That's what chicago is avoiding in making a deal like that. It also cccelerates their window in hoping to keep Bedard long term by starting to win now vs waiting 2-3 years for the 4th overall pick to be ready to be a difference maker in the NHL. Interesting proposal either way.

@islanders_takes Marner was beloved by leaflets fans when he entered the league his skill is insane. The problem with Marner in Toronto was what happened behind the scenes. Starting from signing his etc

TOR fans are going to do remarkable pretzel twisting to try and explain how Marner was a problem in TOR and it wasn't the rest of their dogshit roster.

@frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Bettman basically saying get your ass to NY to explain yourself or pay big time

Wow. The #NHL has docked the Vegas @GoldenKnights a second round pick for a “flagrant” violation of the league’s media policy. Coach John Tortorella has also been fined $100,000.

@JesseGranger_ @reporterchris I could understand if you lost but you won and aint completing your job of speaking to the media imagine if the leafs did this

John Tortorella declined to speak with the media after advancing to the Western Conference finals. The Golden Knights also didn’t open the dressing room after the game. They brought 1 player into a side room to speak, along with the two who spoke at the podium. I’ve been covering the NHL for nine years and never seen either of those happen once.

@reporterchris Say whatever you want but Crosby was never demanding the C

Macklin Celebrini will remain as captain for Canada at the IIHF World Hockey Championship, with Sidney Crosby wearing an "A." That was decided after a player-lead discussion. The players wanted Celebrini to keep the "C."

@ThomasDrance @reporterchris What empire hasn’t had 3 leaders

Francesco Aquilini will not answer questions, but will deliver a prepared statement in advance of the club introducing Henrik and Daniel Sedin as co-Presidents and Ryan Johnson as general manager. #Canucks

@MapleLeafs @LeafsPR Manny is the new Hc

General Manager John Chayka announced today that the club has parted ways with head coach Craig Berube
