Whenever you feel iffy about your team going "off board" on a draft pick just remember that there has never, in the history of any sports league, been a Draft that would be redrafted in the exact same order 5 years down the road.
It's awesome. Cheap tickets and when they play London Peterbourgh there is a few other teams fights happen, definitely good atmosphere. And of course as any good ol hockey games.... THE REFS SUCKKKKKKKK
@@jayalves1209 I'm originally from Sudbury so I would probably go to one of the few times they would play the Wolves, I've never embraced Gens hockey because I'm not from here, I'm too loyal for that I guess, but I love good hockey so I'd definitely be down for a Gens/Pete's game, thanks for the advice ✌️
we have more than enough players who can bury the puck... we needed a defenseman capable of playing in his own end, I'm stoked! And Danford's a really good shot blocker and penalty killer also.
Sign tanev long term doesn’t matter if he doesn’t play the last 2 or so years leafs want and need to win now not later. Idk how ppl are upset with getting rid of a 7th and a potential bottom 6 fwd.
Because Tanev is an older- 34 going on 35- near the end of his career player who gets injured more often than not. They need better, younger defense. I hope the Leafs don't/can't sign him.
@@hockeyfan7100 10/13 szns he’s played 50+ games, they don’t need him every single game they 1000% need him come playoffs. along with other guys too, you clearly haven’t seen this guys game. He locked down one of the best players in the entire league in mackinnon, not a single dman on this roster im decades can do that.
Let's be honest- if the leafs don't go for it the next 2-3 years it's rebuild time. If you can save some cap space those 2-3 seasons by signing Tanev long term- I think that's a good deal. If they don't win a cup in 2-3 years the leafs will be n full rebuild anyway
@@hockeyfan7100 "Better" is the wrong word. Tanev is currently an ELITE defender. The injury/longevity concerns are legitimate, but he is an elite defender. Can't get much better for what he costs.
Because if Taniv wants to be a leaf, he signs here. Now Tree has to sign him at whatever cost to save face for trading for his rights. A stupid needless move. The Leafs management continues its pathetic blunders. There is still a chance he goes for money and a team like Utah outbid the Leafs. You want one or two good D man, you trade Marner for them.
then a team can just offer him 4x5 easily and not have to deal with delusional leafs fans or have to worry about yall harassing his family on social media
💯 facts!!! But you already have people blowing it out of proportion. #1 He hasn't even signed yet, and #2 Some people have no idea how the cap works. If I recall correctly, we have the guy who helped with the last CBA in management. I could be wrong, though.
Wow. A letter in his draft year. Quite impressive. The team had a lot of faith in the kid. What Steve said about Danford play. I’ve heard other reports of the same thing Steve had said. Leafs need that. Team first mentality. He’s already wearing his blood sweat tears and heart on the Oshawa jersey. He doesn’t lose that. He is exactly who I’d want on my team.
That is why we call them DEFENSE MEN they defend and the Leafs were poor defensively on the back end so yes a right shot D man work hoarse is just what is needed
Well if we're talking about the playoffs the Leafs were losing more games from a lack of scoring and poor goaltending than from poor defense. When you can't score more than 2-3 goals a playoff game over the past couple of post seasons you're not going to go far.
im so excited that you can see Ben Danford in person Steve! Im fortunate enough to live in Saskatoon, so watching Fraser Minten over the regular WHL season and playoffs was a treat! (same with Brandon Lisowsky but i dont think he got signed :( )
I can't imagine Treliving making the deal for Tanev without knowing signing him was a foregone conclusion. Imagine if they don't sign him? Eeeeeesh. While I don't think Treliving is risk averse, I don't see him throwing the dice like that.
Let’s face it. Tanev and Brad have worked together for years in Calgary. I imagine they have a good relationship. I feel like Tanev will be willing to work with them for a good deal to finish off his NHL career in his home town (yes btw, he was born in Toronto).
You do realize that they will speak prior to Tanev becoming a free agent and if he has no intention in signing in Toronto they can trade him Saturday or Sunday there is that option but you people just like bashing the leafs so much those kind of thoughts don't enter your mind .If he does sign which is also very possible and for a 7th round player that would probably never play and a prospect huh doesn't sound like a bad price for a coveted defenseman even at 34 yrs old
Key note about Halinka: Ocelari Triniec not only won their 5th consecutive Czech Senior title(doing a reverse sweep in the semis against Sparta Prague thanks to a 4OT(!) Game 7 winner), but also won the U20 league where Miro played the bulk of his games. So even at AHL level he'll bring that championship predigree.
Great video Steve! Definately gonna hit up some gens games this year to see Ben Danford! I think Toronto drafted a great d man!! We need to keep drafting defence and goalies lol
Let me tell YOU a true draft story, 2015 the hockey news has their top 100 guys, one guy drops out of the top 20 and is still there when the leafs are picking next with the 34 pick ,im so happy , thinking this is a good choice , they dont pick the guy ranked 20th they pic Travis Dermott , Carolina picks next they grab him , Sebastian Aho
I was watching on SNO then they cut to the blue jays again... what I had to do was watch on another SN channel and my Rogers' guide said it was the Blue Jays game but instead of the Jays it was the draft... it was weird Steve, it was weird.
Great video as always. I'm really high on Topi Niemela, I think he's definitely going to hit at the NHL level. Ben Danford however, despite what scouts say, I'm quite dissapointed by. I thought that was a massive reach and I've seen plenty of Danford in the OHL, just not first round material.
Aside from getting to watch a Leaf draft pick, the Generals are going to be a beast of a team this year. Sennecke will be back and likely Calum Ritchie (Avalanche). Danford was still blocking shots when Gens were down 4-1 in game 4 of OHL finals
Trying to think the last time the leafs picked outside of Ontario.... Can you not get a guy like that in yhe 2nd or 3rd or even 4th... So if you trade down to 31 to get a 2nd can't you get the nest available for the 31... then that 2nd get Ben....
Okay Tanev at trade deadline was sent to Dallas . Tanev said if I am correct? Said if I am going to be traded, I want to go to a US team. Which he was accommodated. So why would Treliving who couldn't convince Tanev to come to Toronto last year why or what does Treliving think he can convince him this time? Anything over 4 years at 4 million and no move or trade clause will ask the question, "Are you kidding?" What in the hell are you doing !!! Haven't learned a thing . Unless Lilijgren is not going to be qualified, Brodie not returning, Kempf traded Jarnkrok traded Gregor not returning. Where is the money coming from . Question: Do you trade Jarnkrok straight up for Connor Brown . Do you kick the tires on Kadri ? Last do you take a run on Skinner and let Domi Bertuzzi walk away for nothing Defensive prospects Kokohen if that is the correct spelling, Rafi Marshall, the two defenseman sided last year Cabber and one the WHL . Who else do they have on the Marlies 2024 pick a defensive defenseman right handed shot two years to gain some weight
I believe the Rangers sniped the leafs with EJ Emery, a RHD DFD who projects as a top 4 guy and shouldn't need much time to make it to the show. They said on the ESPN feed the leafs were looking to take him at 31
Honestly... even if danford doesnt pan out... im just happy tree is picking right handed d men.... i would of been pissed to see a winger or centre picked in the first round. They need to starting using picks on dmen 2 or 3 each draft
And I like that they are prioritizing defence as a concept. They aren’t being wowed by the offensive Ds with high point totals, they are going for defencemen that have good defensive traits with any offensive potential being a bonus. That’s a massive shift away from guys like Morgan Reilly that might as well be an extra forward playing on the back end.
After that Huberdeau signing, Trevling made in Calgary, do you really trust him to spend the Leafs fragile wisely? Tanev has been a warrior for years, but no reason to think he can continue his stellar play for years.
Nobody does, its called aging. If your too scared to take risks, gm job isnt for you. Jagr still was playing professionally at 50, hes an outlier but it proves the point.....you just dont know.
Dude was forced to make that trade, and people where impressed at his return at the time, its not his fault Huberdeau dipped. All GM's make bad trades tf
@@tgidds I thought it was a great trade for the Flames. But the resigning of Huberdeau was terrible. Paying a 30 year old the second highest left winger for eight years....absolutely silly,
Thanks steve very well explained i hate all these wanna bees that have no idea what they are saying i avoid em and just wait for your imput thanks so much
But. If you look at it another way Steve. Leafs are on other to win now and possibly the next 2-3-4 years. The longer the term. The lower the cap hit. Leafs may get a good 2 years out of him.Maybe 3. Cause we all do know he ain’t gonna play out that contract. Not with the Leafs or any team. Tanev is also looking out for hisself too. Cause if he does have 2-3 yrs left. Then LTIR. He can sit at home and collect. We get Tanev services we’ve been wanting for ages. Tanev gets his future secured. Can’t really fault Tanev for already planning out his future and money at the end of it. Maybe we get him at 7 yr. 3 mill a year.
18 year old, 6 feet 1, 140 pounds…. With the nutritionist and strength coaches the leafs have, they should be able to get him to gain weight, assuming his lack of weight gain isn’t due to anything like an unusually high metabolism. 🤷
Look been Leaf's fan for over 50 yrs. The Leaf's play good reg season when it suits them, but when it comes to play off's they forget to click switch from reg season to play offs, an thats where they go down hill.
6’1 and 143 pounds is crazy. The shortest guy who got drafted today Justin Poirier is 5’7 and has 42 pounds on the kid. He’ll bulk up of course but that is a tiny fella.
@@pitbull7676 You know if a deal is front loaded, and a player retires, the team gets cap penalty know as retention. Recently Canucks had to pay "retention cap" when Roberto Luongo retired with a year or two remaining his front loaded contract.
While I think Chris Tanev does improve the backend, I like to think the timing is really off. Like the timing itself doesn't make sense. You might get 3 years out of him tops, and losing draft capital for that? It's a mixed bag.
Still can't draft a #1 defenceman, so.... Puck movers but not Norris-capable guys. If your D has no one who is a threat to score, then you have 3-on-5 offense, and any team will love facing that.
Yea…. That Cowan made me eat crow. Raw crow. With feathers still attached. And a very good indication I am where I should be. At home. Being an armchair GM LOL I seen one of the fan offer from leafs to flames for Markstrom. And a dman. See if I can remember. Robertson Minton Player Player 1st RD pick. I says Put in Cowan and take out Minton. After seeing what I saw for his analysis was out of this world. Sportscasters and such were praising him Again. I’m exactly where I should be. At home in my chair playing just armchair GM That would have been a bit of a steal for flames. But all is moot now since Markstrom was traded to Jersey. Keefe is gonna have some fun This yr. He’s already got a better goalie the. What the leafs have had in awhile lol. Now Peafs have Tanev a right. Sign the boy. Then let’s go after Perron.
Am I the only one thinking trading for Tanivs rights was needless. Now Tree needs to sign him at whatever cost necessary. If Taniv wants to be leaf, he signs here. The rights trade was a waste of a 7th-round pick. Seems to me that Leafs are continuing to make stupid knee-jerk decisions.
You say that as if it was a bad thing. I came to the leafs after being a flames fan, and I will admit, I never realized how good of a defensive lineup Calgary had until I looked at other teams.
Nah, you got Shanafucked. Was pretty obvious Dubas was shackled by the Shanaplan by what he asked for before he left and what has transpired after he left. Maybe Dubas started down that road, but he was forced to stay on it after the fact. I guess I'll have to wait until Shanny is fired to hear y'all start bitchin about him though.
That’s why the term. 6 or 7 years to keep his cap hit low, and LTIRetire him when he can’t walk anymore. I’d love him here anyway for the same reason I’d like to see them bring back Gio at league min. Even when injured he can take a mentor role for the other D. He’s smart defensively, and if he can pass that down to teammates through osmosis, that’s worth it

PROSPECT EXPERT steve dungle picks Hlinka over Demidov. Good call expert
I'll let you know in 4 years what I think of this Leafs draft class. At this time, I think they did pretty much OK.
scouting staff??? At one time they had Mark Hunter and Leafs screwed that up
Yea…. That Cowan made me eat crow. Raw crow. With feathers still attached.
And a very good indication I am where I should be. At home. Being an armchair GM LOL
I seen one of the fan offer from leafs to flames for Markstrom. And a dman.
See if I can remember.
Robertson
Minton
Player
Player
1st RD pick.
I says
Put in Cowan and take out Minton.
After seeing what I saw for his analysis was out of this world. Sportscasters and such were praising him
Again. I’m exactly where I should be. At home in my chair playing just armchair GM
That would have been a bit of a steal for flames.
But all is moot now since Markstrom was traded to Jersey. Keefe is gonna have some fun This yr. He’s already got a better goalie the. What the leafs have had in awhile lol.
Now Peafs have Tanev a right. Sign the boy. Then let’s go after Perron.
Wake me up when the future rebuild is nearly done. Next 5 years will be a complete waste of time.
Still mad we didnt take mews.....but hey we still did good i guess😅
Leafs drafting Egor Korshkov at 31 in 2016 made absorbedly no sense at the time. And still makes no sense.
Solberg!!!
Leafs only had 1 late pick next year
Wait we could have had that norwegisn kid? Sucks to be a leafs fan.
Am I the only one thinking trading for Tanivs rights was needless. Now Tree needs to sign him at whatever cost necessary.
If Taniv wants to be leaf, he signs here. The rights trade was a waste of a 7th-round pick.
Seems to me that Leafs are continuing to make stupid knee-jerk decisions.
Chirs Tanev is not mean btw
I know people wanted Solberg but I think Danford is the better player.
Salmon arm pft I’m from Dildo and my moms from Hibbs Hole
hows the weather in newfoundland , i heard dildo is beautiful this time of year
Calgary Maple Leafs
You say that as if it was a bad thing. I came to the leafs after being a flames fan, and I will admit, I never realized how good of a defensive lineup Calgary had until I looked at other teams.
Dubas bent us over
Dubas was garbage from day 1
Nah, you got Shanafucked. Was pretty obvious Dubas was shackled by the Shanaplan by what he asked for before he left and what has transpired after he left. Maybe Dubas started down that road, but he was forced to stay on it after the fact. I guess I'll have to wait until Shanny is fired to hear y'all start bitchin about him though.
34 soon to be 35. He is often injured. Likely to be expensive.
That’s why the term. 6 or 7 years to keep his cap hit low, and LTIRetire him when he can’t walk anymore. I’d love him here anyway for the same reason I’d like to see them bring back Gio at league min. Even when injured he can take a mentor role for the other D. He’s smart defensively, and if he can pass that down to teammates through osmosis, that’s worth it
And that Russian they brought over
Leaf's stop trading your picks you fools
yo
Stamkos 4.5mill 5 years LFG
Holmberg is not a "young guy" anymore, Steve...
