As a Sens fan I fucking hate this.
Fire shanny for gods sake
Why did Canada's so-called team hire another American???? eh
There is nothing that will help Rielly… he is well past his prime and never was strong defensively. Carlo is not a bad aquasition but not great. The only way to help the Rielly situation is to limit his ice time to power plays or demote him… period.
To change my mind with the Leafs, they will have to win the Stanley cup. If they don't, they still suck.
A lot of bad takes in this comment section ill tell you awhatt😅
Massive overpay
Yes Carlo, Tanev and OEL this year in the playoffs is a huge upgrade from previous years and all of these signings are fun but it will still ultimately come down to goaltending and timely goals.
saying it now. as good as their moves were cause I dont think they needed much, just filled voids. and good players. but, its going to come down to Matthews and Marner. they need to strangle hold games within a series and carry the team. they HAVE TO SCORE in the playoffs.
Ponder,you know dick all
And then they’ll meet an inferior Montreal team in the playoffs and get upset. Classic stuff😂
This D group looks scary. When your worst Defensemen are 6'4" 220 and really not that bad things are looking good.
The Leafs are a power house in the payoffs
Listened to the conversation until the woman opened her mouth.
I have better things to do now.
Leafs fans – every trade deadline, every off-season the fanbase is looking to improve defense, to improve everybody on the team but the top 4 – and every year, this team fayles. Your top 4 guys ARE THE PROBLEM – all soft – all heartless – all have never won a thing ever! ..Until your stars start owning other teams, it will be a constant shuffling of lower tier players coming in and out the line up, heart wins championships! Tavares is a bust! He wasn't signed to score a few points during season then run to the an early Tee-Tyme when spring arrives. Leafs had/still have visions of cup with that Tavs contract and he has been a huge let down. The Islanders have had more play-off success since Tavs left than the Leafs. I laugh when I hear Leaf-land insist that Tavs be signed back … that is classic Leafs mis-evaluation.
Love how Button looks over at everyone with his "I don't really like the trade" joke and Hedger gives the most awkward laugh meanwhile everyone else stares at him blankly with zero response to his joke lol bunch of hockey minds on that panel but Button thinks he's the top dog with his insights… Nah bud you are a dinosaur
How is he any better than OEL?
BRANDON CARLO another new player for the leafs to play golf early
Take it easy Bob. Somebody fix his wedgie.
Ha bad camera man
Would have preferred the two 1sts and Cowan for Rantanen, which almost happened. Rantanen would have been our Marner protection in case he decides to walk next year
Calling Carlo “physical” is something
This isnt a Stanley Cup team everyone, get a grip. They need to free up Tavares salary to get who they need for the next regualr season and then make a trade move if things are looking good. This team is solid but no where near cup level. They would be lucky to get out of the 1st round with this group.
Can't wait to see Panthers put the hurt on the leaves.
The problem is,
come playoffs the top Leafs dont show up, Mathews,Marner,Nylander disappear, they dont have a playoff gear.
But are they falling behind Florida or Tampa?
why not keep timmins let
rielly or dommy go
2 worst players they got
One of Rielly's best years was when he had Ron Hainsey mopping up for him. Hopefully Carlo can do the same.
I really like Carlo but the Leafs still don’t have a #1 D ,, TB and Florida’s are both better teams than the Leafs
I like the idea of a RHD defensive defender … but is he a Top 4 RHD?
Meh adds at best 😂
Carlo & Laughton are good additions for what Toronto needs right now.
Their top 2 lines are great when playing well and can compete with any lines in the NHL.
Their goalies Stolarz and Woll are best tandem in NHL right now.
What they really needed was to strengthen up their depth with 3rd & 4th line additions.
They did that job today while keeping ALL of their core players intact.
With Laughton & Carlo added it is a huge addition to their 3rd and 4th lines and gives them a lot more depth now.
Laughton is very reliable, very experienced (he was Alternate Captain in Philly even) and he is still young and has room to grow …especially in Toronto with stars like Mathews, Marner, Tavares, Nylander, Reilly, Tanev and the rest of the boys.
Carlo is under rated as a defenseman and I think playing with Tanev and Reilly and the rest of the Leafs he could really start to shine.
Im happy with the trades today.
Marchand to Florida is trouble for the Leafs if they play Florida in playoffs.
BUT there is a reason he was traded today.
He is getting older and slowing down and is not as big of a threat as he used to be.
I think the Leafs are a lot better team after today then they were 24 hours ago and has a chance to make the finals or even win the Cup …for the first time in my 30+ years as a fan.
GO LEAFS GO!
Should of traded mitch, hes out.
