@paulcrid @thegoldenmuzzy @TheFourthPeriod Matthews has always maintained he wants to be here. Hes always signed his deals without issue. Yet, here we are for like the 13th year in a row with media saying hes leaving. Matthews has never catered to garbage media reports. Nor should he.

@thegoldenmuzzy @TheFourthPeriod “Matthews camp” 🤷🏼‍♂️…why can’t the captain of the Leafs speak for himself … his silence is deafening

.@TheFourthPeriod has been all over this Matthews situation for weeks now. In short, it's unlikely he's going anywhere this summer. He likes playing in Toronto, he wants to win in Toronto. Like any star player, he just wants to know what the plan is. Along the way, the messaging got misconstrued. Matthews’ camp has been trying to clarify some of the reporting in recent weeks.

@berezin_goal @hockey34816 U move oel cuz the value is good U let carlo Be healthy and return to form. Move later if it doesnt work Dude couldnt stay healthy last season its almost like ppl forgot how good he is

@hockey34816 That contract is too nice, though. If they intend on competing, keeping OEL might make sense.

The Maple Leafs have 7 defencemen under contract for next season. Based on vibes, it feels like Chayka may gut the defence. Prediction: Jake McCabe ✅ Morgan Rielly ✖️ Oliver Ekman-Larsson ✅ Brandon Carlo ✖️ Chris Tanev ✅ Simon Benoit ✖️ Philippe Myers ✖️ ✅ Keep ✖️ Trade

@HayesTSN seravelli said today Carle makes just under a million

@WatchMyReview Buffalo lacks goaltending. Should make deal with leafs

Buffalo will be back next year and very strong. I know their fans are worried about the massive improvement coming from Toronto, but rest assured, you will be real good!

@DevilsA62669071 @andystrickland I agree with everything youre saying here. Except big money. Hes making around 1million a year annually at denver. He will get probably 3.5 -4 over 4-5 years guaranteed. i respect his decision being based on family and life but money does talk

@andystrickland If he values family and lifestyle, he would turn it down. This isn’t to say Toronto isn’t a great market, or perfectly great place to live, compared to other behemoth hockey markets, but he makes big $$$, young family and seems to value family life. That’s not the job at TML.

Would be surprised to see David Carle leave Denver for the Maple Leafs head coaching job. Don’t see it.

@Guitarsnscotch @WatchMyReview Im a leafs fan i know the frustration lol

Oh look, an old Hab with a torch....AMAZING....

@chiwiedman @MikeGrinnell_ If it was 8x8… he woulda been signed already. Caps rising massively. Zero chance his cap hit starts with an 8

@MikeGrinnell_ 8x8 stays in buff

Might not be the time….but what is Alex Tuchs contract gonna look like and where?

@BluelineBardown Bro the dog days of summer are the worst. Sports are setup perfectly imo

The cup finals used to be in May. Hockey starts too late and finishes too late these days. I wish everything started and ended 2 weeks earlier. I can’t be the only one that’s thinks the timing is a bit off. The finals should just be starting

@lousyleafs @Aubin15Aubin @LeafsRundown His entire account is just chirping ppl and a leafs talks. Never understand why ppl who hate leafs talk about em so much. Same ppl who complain that national hockey media talks too much leafs. Almost like media loves talking leafs so they get clicks from guys like @Aubin15Aubin

@Aubin15Aubin @LeafsRundown “Carle feels like a fit with chakya” You took that as we think the gm is a genius that nobody else can match…? Are you always this stupid or just when it’s about the leafs?

David Carle feels like a natural fit for John Chayka. He’s progressive, detail-oriented, and heavily values video, tracking data, and modern development methods. If the Leafs give him a blank check + power in roster construction hard to not see this getting over the line.

@NYRLouie Dont listen to that garnsge 24/7 acct hes never said anything factual

I am not saying this is true But man, I’d love to see the potential haul we’d get Nothing would quick start the rebuild like making this move… getting a haul of picks/prospects while also guaranteeing a Top 5 pick next year #NYR

@iamhockey1 Lol berube made 4.5 but the rookie coach is getting 8 aav? Stop the lying

The leafs intend to offer Carle a five year deal worth 8 million a year. He is their guy, but does he want to make a jump to the NHL, and can he and his young family deal with the pressure of Toronto?

@TalkinLeafs @NightShiftMD Michkov is hated in philly for a reason Showed to camp out of shape Cant play close to a 200 foot game either. Hes lazy. Kids got skills, but philly is likely gonna show him the door this offseason for another youngplayer that fits better. Surely wont centerpiece a 34 deal

@NightShiftMD Michkov Our 1st back Their 1st next year Luchenko Andrae Lets the team take a step back without fear of losing out on DuPont, while also building for the future. Philly becomes a contender (should probably add on the back end tho) Brière is Matthews idol. Maybe he waives

I’d like at least one credible hockey pundit to argue that there’s a Matthews trade out there that would benefit the #Leafs (given his NMC).

@WatchMyReview That choke job to the flyers is understated to be clear . But the leafs choke job in 9 minutes is fucking bad. But the flyers one is worse yes. Cuz it was 3-0 in series and 3-0 in game 7

@pregamepints But did Boston have a bigger choke in the 2013 playoffs?

It was painful at the time, but anyone else not care about this and think it's overhyped as a "choke"? If it's an 82 game season, that Leafs team doesn't even make the playoffs imo. They were going nowhere.

@OverDrive1050 If we have learned anything this week, its that dreger doesnt know shit

NEWS: Darren Dreger on OverDrive says the Maple Leafs are showing interest to acquire Vincent Trocheck in the offseason #LeafsForever

@_JordanDecker Its a simple age + contract conversation. U land knies. Hes locked in for 6+ years at 7.5. Which is massively valuable as cap goes up

Funny if true. I like Knies more than Matthews, but if both are healthy, it’s not a debate who the better player is. Matthews’ reputation dragging value down? Entitled, greedy, soft, disappears in big games, and most importantly injury prone.

@WatchMyReview @AlexSeixeiro Get the guy from denver Tons of success in last 5 years. Brings a new element which is badly needed Maybe him chayka and sundin can stick around for the long haul

@AlexSeixeiro He might be in the mix for 3-4 candidates. Not sure he's the guy.

With the Oilers firing Kris Knoblauch, he jumps to the top of the list when it comes to best coaches available for the Maple Leafs. He checks off all the boxes that John Chayka is looking for.

@WatchMyReview Edna needs to relax a little lol

Hawt take: Edna would rather trade Knies for 4th pick from Chicago than pass on McKenna for 1st overall.

@fksambennett Dreger doesnt know a single thing ever

Dreger: “surprised but not shocked” Buddy you said he would be sticking around “not shocked”??? You have no fucking sources now
