@@TheUniverseAroundUsNews Because they decided to give Liljegren a raise for double his salary instead of a qualifying offer or letting him walk to free agency.. 3M that could have been spent on better Dmen in free agency. Seems like Tre cut his losses and just signed him because he was a RH Dman.
Say what you like about the signings. I’m just happy the defense is being bolstered. I’d like to see more defensive minded and physical forwards added to surround the stars though. If it’s only 2 guys on the ice playing defense your screwed
$4.1 million for goalie depth. who knows, maybe with the surgery and lots of rest, Murray will make a nice comeback. either way, could be very useful #3
True. Could be a steal, and Woll could still be the real deal. This is a gamble we can take and still sleepwalk to the playoffs. If the tandem doesn't look competitive by the deadline, hopefully there's a viable rental out there. Both of these guys look like NHL goalies though, sample size notwithstanding.
I am pretty happy with these moves. For many years, free agency would come and go and we often would be left scratching our heads wondering why Leafs didn't do much. I like he OEL and Tanev signings, Leafs blueline is really looking improved. I also like the Stolarz signing, limited games per season but stats ( minus the one year in Ana) have been good. He's a massive goalie at 6'6"... I think the Leafs bringing back Murray for one year is a little bit of an insurance move just due to Woll's injury history and incase these 2 can't do the entire season as a 1A/1B.. maybe Murray takes 10-15 games this season? Then if the Leafs need to address it further, they can address it before or at trade deadline..
Like the tanev and oel signing, not the term, but that's how free agency goes, I'd like the stolarz signing if they had a legit starter, love Woll but I'm not sold on the goaltending. Also I weirdly like what the capitals have done, they could be good this year
A lot of people complaining they didn't get this person or that one. Don't forget, they had limited funds and the player also has to want to play in TO. I'm sure some don't. They could have offered Zadorov or Skeji a contract but they said no. Who knows. All I know is, on paper, the D is better than last year and the goaltending may or may not have improved, time will tell. Hopefully more moves to come..
Glad Leafs Brasses are working on the free agents market...i couldn't imagine way back when we scooped Leetch and Murphy then it was too late they were veterans and old then retired...we got no where
lol the crybaby leafs fans always think every offseason they act like they won the Stanley cup But at the END there’ll be crying yet again This make it’s so priceless Sincerely Garry Bitmen
Congrats Leafs you added 3 players this free agency season. All three are 30 or more years of age. Welcome Tanev, Ekman-Larsson and Stolarz to the circus known as Toronto. Wasn't change suppose to be the name of the game this off-season? Well..... it's looking like another year of running it back. Very underwhelming!
Tanev is a great pick, both of these new picks provide what we have been missing. We have all of the skill, youth, and prospects we need. We needed a solid D, we needed grit and constitution to go four rounds, these guys give this.
@@geographyinaction7814 so you are content with this?? I was definitely expecting more since after they were eliminated Leaf management said change was coming. I don't think this is the change they envisioned.
OEL is a nightmare. The worst defensive player ever. We’re still paying him in Vancouver. His good days are way behind him. Good luck Leafs. Another fatal mistake.
Very bizarre take on today. I guess trolls usually have some points but this comment is completely bizarre. Have you ever watched a hockey game or is the just hate? Again very bizarre take on today 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️🙈🤔😂🤣😂🤣
@@johngreystone We are not trolls we are just realists! This is year 8 of running it back. Aren't you tired of this? Did these changes convince you that they are Stanley Cup contenders? Let me tell you they are not!
@@marconion who says they're running it back?? wtf does FA frenzy have to do with marner getting moved so they can make meaningful change? teams aren't making deals like that until after FA frenzy so they know where they stand and what they can move. big moves take time and definitely don't happen today.
The cupboards are empty, there are no blue chip draft picks thanks to the gross ineptitude of Dubas and Shanahan ... acquired goalie Anthony Stolarz is no savior. Boston has countered what the Leafs did on the blue line so there is still very little hope of the Leafs moving past the 1st round of the playoffs. Same 'ole, same 'ole!
Stolarz was a great signing... this could work out to be a steal for the Leafs... overall Treeliving has done a decent job today, NOWWWW ... if he can get Marner moved out ,he will have around $1️⃣0️⃣Million to shoppppp.... do what you can Tree 🌳 to free up Marner money ... let's see if they can close the deal on Skinner... I would really love that for our Maple Leafs....🙏🙏🙏🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
When trying to win experience in the NHL is so important. These players are fine for the group
They should have got Pesce or Zadorov with the money they used to sign OEL and Liljegren.
How do you know they didn't try? For all we know is that the players themselves chose not too...

Yes, u are so right, but it's better than last year, but manner is still a leaf love guy. What do u do
We loooooove these MID goalies 🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾
Just imagine if they had Marners cap space and could use it on upgrades
Stolarz. 2 yrs 2.5-ish.
That’s a very good contract.

I TOLD YOU Murray would be back. 🤣🤣🤣

How come no one has signed Brodie, Samsonov, Edmundson and Klingberg???🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Edmondson got signed by the kings
@@user-sn8sw2vi8z brodie sucks the only decent guy of the 4 is edmundson and he signed with LA

This is perfect, just as shit as last season
Vegas didn't make any big moves, so it makes me wonder if Marner might be on his way there.
Glad Leafs Brasses are working on the free agents market...i couldn't imagine way back when we scooped Leetch and Murphy then it was too late they were veterans and old then retired...we got no where
Murphy played well for us
Lockin’ down everything from the pipes to the blue line.
and the purse
lol the crybaby leafs fans always think every offseason they act like they won the Stanley cup
But at the END there’ll be crying yet again
This make it’s so priceless
Sincerely Garry Bitmen
The Leafs d is definitely a lot better especially in the very physical playoffs.
Our division is so tough, Bruins got a lot better today
They are gonna have to pay swayman big money
Yes the leafs aren’t making the playoffs this year
So have the panthers
Looking a bit better
BLUE LINE IS LOOKING BETTER MAYBE A BIT MORE IN MARCH...
They need scoring and have no cap space left unless they trade Kamph, Jarncrok, and Robertson. They have to replace Bertuzzi.
It isn't scoring they need, it is post-season goals. I think that the coaching change and the D to forward transition has changed this.
Stolarz..meh, Ekman-Larson okay but not special. Taney is old and injury prone. Stop sounding like you are planning a Cup parade.
Need to get another forward to replace bertuzzi and we will be good
U guys need to after aron ekblad and trade nies for ekblad

Not a Leafs fan but i follow their circus act. I think i have the same reaction as you to these news, underwhelming.

Especially for a Leaf hater.
@@marconionThey are better defensively. And probably goaltending as well.
We got better Defensively and worst offence . If we can get a good 2nd C we’re good.
Sure but offensive is strong across the league while defense is bottom of league and still bottom end now hitting mid only
Trade nies for Aaron ekblad
@@matteodilullo2795do you understand how the salary cap works? Plus, it is "Knies"
But Marner is still a Leaf and he’s soft, and even softer in the Playoffs. Going nowhere this year.
Trade morgan reilly.
OEL is a nightmare. The worst defensive player ever. We’re still paying him in Vancouver. His good days are way behind him. Good luck Leafs. Another fatal mistake.
Couldn’t have signed Brossoit for a little more than what Chicago got him for? smh
Very underwhelming signings. Treliving has another awful free agency under his belt.
Marconion. Is that you?
Underwhelming used a few times now
Are you making new account just to hate on the Leafs. Or is it the channel?
