Varsho has homered in his last 3 rehab games. He should be back soon.

The Blue Jays have the best record in baseball. The last time they had the best record in baseball this late into the season was August 1, 1992.

Jays currently sit 1st in the AL and are tied for most wins in MLB.

The biggest question for me is whether the Leafs tried and the Knies camp said no.

Matthews and Nylander are very effective together. I wonder if Maccelli might be a compliment there. Bump Knies and Domi with Tavares: Maccelli - Matthews - Nylander Knies - Tavares - Domi Joshua - Roy - McMann Switching Domi and McMann could work too. Lots of options here. I think it'll be...

I personally like the idea of a Joshua - Tavares - Roy line. I don't think the proper center to play with Nylander in currently on the team. I don't think a line of McMann - Laughton - Nylander would do Willy any good.

I'd love Trocheck for the Leafs. There's no way the Rangers will trade him especially for what the Leafs could offer, yeah?

I like the fit of Joshua with Tavares and Nylander. Sounds like he'd compliment what they do.

I think, at least, people are starting to realize that this is all just about diversion.

Double Robertson's salary from last year, $1.75m x 2 years, and be done with it.

It really worked out pretty serendipitously for the Panthers. It's not like Tkachuk has been the Conn Smythe winner the last two years (he might have been the Panthers best player for their 2023 run). Seems like he was just what the roster was missing.

It was a good return for Tkachuk.

After last night's win, the Blue Jays set a record for most consecutive wins at home with 11.

No line in the NHL that played more minutes than the Knies - Matthews - Marner line had a higher xGoals% than the Leafs top line of 58.4%. That line was good.

At the end of the day, Marner (or Rantanen) at their cap hits weren't what the Leafs needed. They needed a 3 C, a 2 LW, and a 3rd pair RH D-man. Also, better bottom depth in the lineup. Retaining Marner wouldn't have addressed any of those issues. I'm still waiting to see how the rest of the...
