2026-27 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion | Official: Sundin & Chayka to lead front office

[Joe S.]

Is it a reach for me to say the leafs signed the 2 biggest UFAs that were available in this year's (albeit shallow) pool?

Not really. Raddysh was def up there and TSN had Bob @#1

Raddysh, Bob, and Tuch were generally considered the top-3 UFAs a week ago. Like you said though, a pretty shallow pool.

Well, whatever you think, they’re certainly being much more pro active than Treliving was…

I mean I know it's early, and I don't want to be that naive leafs fan, but at the very least on paper, this team feels far superior to last season's iteration.

And they've targeted what they really need and moved on from what they feel they don't. I don't think he's done yet.

I was scared to say that

 

[Guilt Trip]

Leafs had a great draft and so far a very good off season.

Embrace the fear!

 

[Arn]

If they can swing something for Werenski that would be… confusingly excellent.

I was just going to post, I have my doubts about Chayka's judgment but the guy is an Excitement Generator. Combined with Mats' magic pingpongball powers, we've had more fun here in the last week than in all the time Tre was here.

 

[cabber24]

In Pelley we trust…

 

[bustaheims]

Well, the Leafs are certainly going to be different this season. Better? I don’t know, but definitely different. Harder to play against, for sure.

How could they not be better? lol, 29th next year?

 

[rdowdall]

The Leafs are now over the cap. Not by a significant amount, but they are over the cap. When they send MacEwen down, and if/when Domi goes on LTIR that can be cleared up.

 

[Arn]

Still think the D needs a bit of work.
