So now Raddysh is signed at reported 8 years and $8.5 Million. Here is the question... He had J.J. Moser as a partner there which really contributed to his big total points. If that was possibly a fluke year... how many points should we realistically expect annually from him that the fans won't turn on him for that $8.5? What would be satisfactory? 40, 50, 60 or will everyone want that 70 points annually.
Just curious on everyone's expectations of a player that signs for that long at that value.

I'd be happy with 50 to 60 point range TBH.
I think McCabe would be a good partner for him, but I'm still holding out for Ferraro in FA.
Leafs need another PK LHD behind McCabe (dont really want to rely on Rielly or OEL). I definitely see Rielly and/or OEL being traded as well if they can get Ferraro.

If he QB's the PP like expected. I would think 50ish points on average is reasonable. If he has those kinds of points, moves the puck out of our own end quickly, helps produce offence and is solid enough defensively, then I'm good with it.

I think this means Rielly is gone 100%. I cannot see a situation where he stays anymore.
I'm seeing around 60pts in a perfect world, 50pts and I'm happy. With the production for the price if he's good defensively.
Big risk here in that it could be dead cap if he regresses as a 30yo who had a breakout year.
Not a huge risk as then it's just a full rebuild afterwards though.
McCabe-Raddysh
Tanev(?)-OEL
?-Erson
Not horrible, but depends on if Tanev comes back.

I am just more concerned with the lenth of term (A little with the $ as well.) We don't have crystal balls obviously, but if he can consistently put up 55 I think in this salary market that is good value. If he drops to his past numbers that are more 35 point range. The fanbase will turn quickly. McCabe better report in incredible shape, because he is going to be doing a lot of skating, because that is the one huge knock on Raddysh is that is in the bottom half of the league for skating speed and not great in his own end.
If he can put up numbers like last year, people will look the other way on that though. No Pressure eh? LOL LOL LOL.

Hey im new to this site, few things I would like to mention are first and foremost is Leafs are a offensive team, that has defensive issues snd that Hiller, although descent coach plays a defensive style structure, that not nothing you people don't already know, now I'm sure people might disagree but I think Leafs should stick to the formula of an offensive team, its gunvyo watch gets ya excited and with there talent we can hit the post season again... I know that the defense is area that needs an over haul...seriously I think going after Raddysh is a mistake specially that they'll want a kings ransom...im gonna think hard in another message in another day...but ill say one player Leafs should add for offense and secondary scoring, and he could come cheap on a proverbial deal, could get him for around or between league minimum up yo 3 mill per season, but I think and I know alit of you guys might disapprove but I think Patrick Laine Leafs should sign...he has a blister of a onetimer and a former 40 goal scorer...
I think putting him on the power play with Matthews, Nylander, Knies and OEL, would be an incredible unit...sign him gor two mill on a one year..he would be open too comingvto Toronto..k ill be back tmw with a lineup I think would fo well. Which will have balance on every line..im hoingvto mention players they'll Def target..anyways its good to be on this site..

I was expecting an out of the box pick, but not this one. I'm not a fan of this at all after watching LA.

I know he has Head Coaching experience and he had Assistant Coaching past experience with the Leafs..... but I feel so bad for John Gruden. He deserves a Head Coaching job with someone and this would have been a good fit. Who knows..... maybe Edmonton comes to their senses and gives him a shot. Gruden's only sin this year was taking the Marlies so deep into the playoffs all the other teams were hiring Head Coaches because he was still tied up and occupied by winning games so he could not interview elsewhere.
My gut feeling is Steve Staios gets him into the Ottawa Organization to have handy in case they get off to a rough start and Travis Green needs to be replaced. He and Staios have a history together. If he leaves the Leafs Organization there will be some sad players who love this guy to death.

I get a kick out of the amount of hockey websites out there like Heavy, Editor in Leaf, Pro Hockey Rumours to only name a fraction. I will see headlines from Heavy pop up on my newsfeed even though I have constantly edited out of my feed. To be honest, the crap they write and post is so lame. Amateur freelancers who doctor headlines to look like itās a big trade or big story and when you read it, itās literally the writer's opinion if what they think would be a good deal, or a story that has no meat to it other than a story reported by another writer.
We actually have more insightful posters on here than these sites have.
These so called āhockey writersā on those sites get paid based on click view. Heavy for instance $1 per thousand and the others similar sometimes a flat fee of $15 then so much per 1000 clicks.
Keep up the trade posts on here. Whether good or bad suggestions they seem to be more viable than anything I have seen on the other so called professional sites.

I've just been chilling since the off-season more or less.
I've been away the last little while, enjoying vacationing in Italy. I'll be back in a couple days before the draft.

So just a couple tidbits I thought I'd run by the group.
1) Maybe the Reilly to SJ trade is just a simple trade for the 20th overall pick this year? Would everyone be satisfied with that? Or do you want an older prospect back?
2) Possibly the most important decision the Leafs make this year is who they choose to be bench boss. I know there are all the rumors about Pavelski... but I wonder if one of the finalists could be Kirk Muller? He left the Capitals at the end of April for other opportunities in the NHL...
he has experience and could be that good ol' former player to rally the troops.
Perhaps they could pair him with another person like Pavelski as an assistant to get his feet wet.
Or could you imagine if they brought in a legend like Dougie Gilmour to be coach?! How can you not to over the boards each and every shift and not give it your all if you're playing for that guy?!
Anyways just a thought... curious to see what ppl are thinking since we never really discuss the coaches.
Agree0Disagree0
12 Jun 2026 18:25:49
Not sure who could motivate this group to play with a little nastiness. Berube was an ex player who stood up for teammates etc and this group didn't rally for him. Keefe gave them lots of leash and protected them publicly and they wouldn't go through a wall for him either.
I think whoever it is, they have to have a fair amount of say on who stays and who needs to go. And that coach has to have the cahonies to say so no matter what the player is.
Agree0Disagree0
12 Jun 2026 18:26:46
I would do that Reilly for 20th all day long.
Regarding the coach. I know they have not interviewed him and maybe Chayka doesnāt want anyone from the previous regimeā¦. But I thing John Gruden would be a great hire. He is very familiar with the players we have to work with and has done a great job during the season and playoffs with the Marlies. The players speak very highly of him.
Agree0Disagree0
13 Jun 2026 02:10:00
Morgan for that pick
Yes please
Coach
I like Pavelski
Not sure why
But itās out of the box and weāve tried everything else like RLF mentioned.
Agree0Disagree0
13 Jun 2026 17:13:44
Yes, good post. Suffering, I have to agree with you. I like John Gruden too. Weāve had no draft picks or traded for prospects, but somehow our AHL team is in the Calder Cup. Coach has them playing the right way.
I also like Pavelski as W17 stated. My pick would be Gruden as head coach and give Pavelski experience by putting him as assistant, and if Gruden doesnāt work out, Pavelski is there to step in.
Agree0Disagree0
13 Jun 2026 18:10:47
Yeah Clarky, that would be a good combo. Pavelski can certainly relate to later round draft picks is an example of what hard work can do. Gruden I have always respected since he got fired for not dressing the owner's son when told to do so in Filin in their first year in the OHL, the players all walked out in support.
That showed his character right then and there.
Agree0Disagree0
13 Jun 2026 21:52:04
Can Gruden and Pavelski get these guys to play hard? I'm not convinced anyone can.
Agree1Disagree0
14 Jun 2026 11:57:13
No Guarentee with any coach, but Gruden certainly is getting the most out of the crew on the Marlies and has great compliments from players who played for him in the past in other organizations. I think he deserves a head coach shot.

What if Toronto offered Micheal McLeod a contract close to the league minimum? He would fit perfectly on the fourth line because of his great faceoff ability, and he could rotate the fourth-center role with Jacob Quillan.
Michael McLeod can definitely terminate his KHL contract if a better opportunity comes up.
Agree0Disagree0
11 Jun 2026 22:44:26
I think a McLeod signing has been suggested recently.
Iām in at the minimum.
