DeBrusk wants to say that he wants to play for Leafs so the media will go crazy and report all the news. McDavid wants to be a leaf, and Jagr wants to come out of retirement to play with Leafs. Marner next contract will be 5.5 million for 7 years
Two other players who I haven’t heard being talked about for the leafs are Sean monahan and Jonathan drouin and they’d probably both be cheaper than Bert or debrusk
Dude, nick robertson is going to be a top goal scorer in the nhl, he’s very much a good option for top 6. He’s got a chip on his shoulder, determined, and still has a lot more to give and it was evident he was getting comfortable in finding his game at end of season and playoffs. He puts up goals with very limited ice time, the only way to learn and grow is by playing, if you don’t give him the chance , he’s not going to improve.
Reporters all write that both sides have mutual interests lol. Debrusk wants to stay in Boston or go out west. Debrusk wants 6 million. Saying debrusk might be willing to take a cut to help the leafs is hilarious. If he’s gonna take a cut to help a team it’ll be Boston.
And a trade rumor that Sabres maybe trying to aquire F Mitchell Marner at 25% retained for RD Henri Jokiharju and F Alex Tuch and 2nd round pick in 2024 and 3th round pick in 2024 if true or not we will see?
JAKE DEBRUSK, Younger, cheaper, similar numbers to Bertuzzi anyway and were gaining an excellent player overall and taking one leaf killer away from Boston. Boston could be another team we face next season, so why not take one of their big guns away right?
mixed feelings on Bertuzzi, didnt produce in the playoffs like people were expecting. Get Debrusk and Montour . Any additions taken away from Bruins/Panthers is a double win
DeBrusk 87playoff games 47points .54ppg. He is not a physical player whatsoever, his most hits in one season is 107 an career hits average .94 hits per game.
@johnsummerhill8323 They had slow starts, and were integral 1st liners with Matthews Probably the 2 best leafs come playoffs. Marner ain't going nowhere, so keeping them on the 1st line is a must.
Could the Leafs get around the salary cap by signing guys like Bertuzzi to long deals like 3x12 years instead of 6x6years and then just ship him off to robidas island for years 7-12? Player gets their bag, team saves cap space. Win/win
Bertuzzi is grittier, tenacious in the corners and in front of the goalie.Debrusk is more skiled and seems to be a playoof stud. Tough call. Sign them both. Marner is on the way out as well as others. We'll have cap space.
Dream world here, bare with me. If the Leafs can get Domi, Debrusk & Dakota Joshua all for under $12m in total. That seriously upgrades the toughness and production. Hopefully flip Marner for a Starting goalie & top 4 D-Man. Could still theoretically have $6m in cap after that to pursue another top 4 D
@@shanebrohm7786 At worst, he will do exactly what blake wheeler did to treliving in Arizona....walk for nothing. At best he gets traded away like the core in Calgary for a pail of pucks and some stick tape. It's not the player...its entirely the gm. Treliving is a team killer. He will resign bertuzzi and or domi and not call it running it back. Marner will not waive his nmc. When you know your team needs top 4 D and your only answer is klingberg. Treliving sabotaged the leafs last year. He wanted them to fail, he wanted keefe gone. Why do you ask? I'm going to give the leafs a huge amount of 3rd pairing dmen playing minutes they shouldn't be and a few extra 7th dmen. I expect results in the playoffs. The leafs issues have nothing to do with the forwards and everything to do with the defense or lack their of. 2 offensive players were on the ice for the final goal. Reilly and marner. Idiot..sorry trelivong had 22 mil to address the D last year. He did puck all. He currently has 19.5 mil to address the D. He will resign forwards.
And from trade rumors that leafs maybe trading F Nick Robertson RFA rights and F Calle Järnkrok to Sabres for a 2nd round pick in 2025 and F Eric Robinson if true or not we will see? And other trade rumor that leafs maybe trying to aquire F Alexey Toropchenko from blues for F Prospect Ryan Tverberg and 3rd round pick in 2026 if true or not we will see. And the leafs send David Kampf to Ducks for 4th round pick in 2024 if true or not we will see?
