The leafs signed Domi because he wanted to be here, he had the grit to change the identity of the team, and he played well being with Matthews to free up Marner from that line. When you get your team healthy again, they need to break up Matthews and Marner and put Domi in Marner's place. Then have Marner drive his own line, and Nylander the next one. There's your three headed monster. JT slots with one of Marner or Nylander. Kyper's on point though on a lot of takes this week: Kadri all day. Marner is going to make his money (and he should). The hit has a lot of factors but most people don't understand because they haven't played the game at that level. And even Doug was fire today haha. What a solid week!
Just an FYI, back when Shanny was DoPS anytime he handed down a suspension, he used to make a video explaining and physically illustrating the reason for that suspension.
Bennett is 27-28 and is making a bit over $4 million. I'd gladly pay him $6-7 million. I don't think he wants to leave either but Florida has quite a few expiring contracts, especially on defense

I would HATE to see that change back, so again, I just love getting this content in video form on RUclips!! We can do better as Leaf/NHL fans (if you like the show) 🤣🤣
He's right. Figure it out and get Kadri. He didn't wanna leave Toronto in the first place. They were too horny to trade him instead of simply benching him or working with him. He was young and immature. He's a beast and nasty to play against. If they can make the cap work.. I've been wanting Kadri back since he left.
I had heard from O'Reilly in an interview, in a cryptic manner sayinh he thought there was an element in the dressing room that he thought would never win a cup. It couldve meant the coach, it couldve meant someone or a clique in the dressing room. The coach is gone so thats no problem, if its a player(s) and depending who it is do you trade them and what if it is one of the NTC?????
How about you just let it go already? and do you believe everyone? man you really are a conspiracy theorist. You are so clueles man, he left cuz he didnt wanna deal with the media. Keefe had idiots saying their wad "cryptic manner" on the leafs. you need to let ROR go he IS not COMING BACK. Ask ROR how Brunette is doing this year i bet he regret opening his dumb mouth.
When ROR didn't resign. I immediately thought, he must of looked at the room and the star players and knew they couldn't go 4 rounds of playoff hockey and win. The way they never got in the trenches to fight along with the other lower end players. Hopefully, Chief can influence them to be that way.
The Leafs finally have a system they can work with. They also are finding roll players to fill out the bottom 6 like Lorentz. Before they have too many skilled guys who wanted to score goals when what they really needed were poayers who can play a roll on the bottom 6.
100% on board with mckee and the TML ideas, embarrassing seeing people leave early on amazing performances when any normal average joe is literally spending their savings just to get in the building, Kipper and Bourne showed their affluence here
heres why I love Kyper... he defends old time hockey, which is hockey. He is the John Dutton of hockey, if Sammy and Botterill had there way we'd be watching sled hockey.
Bring back Naz, still has a few years left of solid, gritty hockey! Calgary needs to retain 1/2 of Naz's salary though. 3rd line centre? Tre, get-r-done.
Sorry Kadri at 34 is too old and too many years 5 on his contract. HERE IS THE TRADE! Easton Cowans and Alex Steeves to the Columbia Blue Jackets for Kent Johnson and their 1st rround pick in 2026
@@Nvwheeler Except that Cowans is much better than Kent Johnson and will be in the NHL next year! Columbus will not make the playoffs this year! The Leafs needs a centre... Columbus don't need Johnson and will get a star!
So the Bar has been SET as long as U go North/South on a HIT to the HEAD use UR Elbow or Jump it's not Suspend-able no 5 minute major or 2 Minute Penalty. GOOD Glad they clarified that for us
Only for every other team except the Leafs. I'd put money on it. If a Leafs player makes that same whitecloud hit on someone later this season, it WILL be a 5 minute major and suspension. Guaranteed!
Why doesn't the department of player safety comment on all these questionable hits? In other words, they should always explain why they assessed a suspension, or why they did not assess a suspension. Makes sense to me, unless they don't want clarity, like they don't want on goaltender interference and offside calls...
On Domi / Bertuzzi .... Bert hasn't exactly lit up Chicago - he has 5 goals and 2 assists playing top six minutes. Annualizes to a 30 point season. Neither of them appear to be smart signings. And I'm with Kypper on O'Reilly ... I don't want a guy who had the chance to stay here and didn't want to stay. But they can't afford the AAV and term for Naz, even if the Flames are over their "trade to anyone but Treliving" snit, so I think the answer ultimately lies elsewhere.
I knew Brendan Shanahan very well. We are the same age. I know I am ready to retire if I could afford it. John Tavares should be the next President of the team.
ROR said publicly more than once that he didn't like the Leafs' over-concentration on the Top 4, feeling he could still play a leading role on a team and wasn't ready to play second fiddle. There were also rumours that he and Schenn thought the Leafs were too soft and hesitant about standing up for each other. Throw in the overbearing Toronto media (which he handled very well) and his love for playing and listening to live music and Nashville became a nice option for him.
Robertson has played the majority of the season alongside absolute offensive black holes..... We've known for 3 seasons that Robertson wasn't going to succeed on a checking 3rd line and needed to play alongside a skilled playmaker. 3rd season in a row setting him up to fail and then acting shocked when he does, feel like I am Adam Sandler and Sam is the women in 50 First Dates....
Myself i haven't seen JT play in 6 years the way he is playing this season ... MAYBE the reason why is it's his last season and contract with the LEAFS IF Treliving resigns him , BUT is JT going to keep this up through 82 games and Playoffs ...TIME will tell soon enough
1:24:25 Saskatoon leafs fan What is up with TSN and how I am out of the viewing area. Can't imagine that being able to watch the game today causes territorial issues. Not like attending any game is realistic.
Aside from McGee, this show has lost a lot of credibility defending the Whitecloud hit. It was a Headshot. Unbelievable anti-Leaf bias. Please stop talking Taylor Swift.
The hubris of TO-centric commentary on full display today. I mean, in what world does Calgary give up Kadri for pieces the Leafs don't need for a playoff run?
Tavares contract = Giordano contract otherwise let him walk. His cap space is too valuable to waste on an aging player who is in decline. Reinvest in younger players and reload.
Enough with the Kadri to Toronto B.S. He's not coming to Toronto. #1 He's making 7 million/ year and #2 Hasn't it been obvious by now that😮 Calgary are not trading with Treliving.
Typical Kyper head up his butt and jealous when someone is an older player who’s playing the best hockey of his life shouldn’t be nominated for team Canada. Just because Kyper was never nominated even in his prime and obvious Leafs hater. It’s ok Kyper we feel the same way about you. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
This is by far the best hockey talk show on the planet. Best from Sweden
Definitely, I watch it religiously every day.

Instead of chasing Kadri. Sign Sam Bennett in the offseason, that's the move.
I agree with you but time is money. Everybody is getting older. You get what you can get now if the deal is good.
@@bshinjp I disagree. Kadri is 34 with 4 more years on his contract. It's just not a good decision.
@@chamber32doors "Everybody" is getting older. That includes Matthews. We need players now with everyone on IR/LTIR

the sound board guy is a legend
I agree 100% with everything Sammy said!
3 months after a concussion I bent over to tie my shoe and fell over in the street. Yet I had been riding my bike for weeks and felt fine.
I love Holmberg just for fkin with Marchand in the playoffs that one time.
For sure Kadri!!!
Nice of Kyper to give Sammy one there 👍They agreed on something lol
Are you ever going to fix Doug's audio? It's been clipping for years!
John wasn’t there in 2010 he was in 2014 tho, Also taveras got a hat trick that game playing against Adam Lowry
JT does it against top lines. Lowry is generally up against 3rd lines. No comparison in my view. Sammy is right again.

Roberston looks very, very light on his skates.
Like his center of gravity is too high for his height.
Maclean is senile to think kadri would be moved and on top of that weegar it’s downright hilarious lol
JB " At least he let it go". 😂😂😂😂
Regarding Sam's hat ... Is it the Owen, Sound Attack. Or is it the Owen Sound, Attack.
Owen sound is a place. Attack is the team name

Yup he called it playoff hockey. Kyper lost a few brain cells when he got KO all those years ago
kyper is open for a job someplace else.
He heard Steve dangle, I'm sure
Out with a concussion and deemed a good hockey play. Too funny. There was direct contact to the head. Should have been a penalty.

No way no how to O'Reilly. He burned his bridges with Toronto. NOPE.
Bertuzzi IS(with Chicago) and Was a slug with the Leafs, can't skate at an elite level to play in the top six.
