idk but Toronto really is going to be a competitive next year
say what you want but i gurantee it.
stamkos to tdot.
if we actually get stamkos we're so stockpiled at centre...
Matthews, Stamkos, Nylander, Marner, Kadri, Bozak....
All of which projected #1 or #2 centres...
You could make the argument for bozak to be a #3, but he'd be an elite #3.
Oh and theres even the goat....
Add Shoshnikov, JVR, Komarov, Kapanen, Brown, Hyman to the forward mix.... and i guess Lupul(lol)
That's a ridiculous group of forwards....
I think we're still weak on the back end, but we're getting there.
My projected line-up.
JVR Kadri Nylander
Komarov Matthews Marner
Lupul Bozak Soshnikov
Brown Laich Michalek
Rielly Zaitsev
Gardiner Hunwick
Carrick Marincin
Corrado Percy
Harrington
Bernier
Sparks
Missing-
Gauthier, Hyman, Robidas, Greening, Kapanen, Leivo, Lindberg, Leipsic, Carrick,
I think we are incredibly deep, i would love to see the Leafs trade depth for a bigger asset, we've got a bunch of B+, A- Prospects.
If we are to get stamkos, i think that bozak has to be the man out, theres no way we could keep all those centres, and i just can't see him playing the 4th line.
If we knew ahead of time about the whole stamkos thing, id actually lean to get Laine, but we wont know until july, so Matthews is the choice.
