I dislike the decision to send Rielly to the juniors, he deserved the 5 game try-out at minimum, IMO. On paper, this Leafs team might be worst than last season. We need a Herculean effort from the top line, and Phaneuf otherwise we likely finish in the lottery again.

Tim Connolly to the Marlies , as per James Mirtle via Nonis.

Good year to grab that a talented youung C' if I were a leafs fan id be hoping for a lotto finish

I would assume this is Nonis plan. Short season, quick tank, add building blocks.

[anton]

Although management would never admit it - short season, waiving vets, playing kids, no trade for #1G...we are in tank mode.

Considering the draft crop this year and the fact that no matter how you slice, success in a 48 game season will always be "tainted", i couldn't be happier with the direction Nonis is taking this.

If you are going to tank, this is the time to do it. quick,relatively painless, and with perhaps the best draft since 2003. timing couldn't be better.

Pretty much mirrors what I did with my BBKL team. Great minds think alike Mr. Nonis

[Shep]

We are definitely in "see what we have in the kids, and let the season play out the way it will" mode.

It was said Rielly was never going to stay after 5 games. Even if he made the team for the 5 games, he was getting sent down. Maybe he deserved to stay, maybe not. I'm not too concerned.

Redden signs with the Blues.

James Sheppard sign with SJS

I will get pumped for a lottery selection at the draft, until then I want the Leafs to win.

I'm with Kareem, i never cheer against the leafs.

And if the leaf goalies suck, we trade for Bernier this summer. He can grow with the team.

[Lee]

Bernier is in no way an upgrade over Reimer.
