Sounds like its a waiting game until a marner or someone signs.. So many unsigned RFAs right now its crazy...

Provorov Rantanen Marner Connor Laine... Several more.

If we sign Laine at $10+ million a season, this will be a huge anchor on the cap and a problem in the locker room...

As surprising as it seems, I think Laine leaves in a year or two

I don't think Buff will be available to play on monday, I hope everythings okay

 

Maurice told 1290 Buff will be fine and its "nothing sinister".

Would look good in a Jets jersey. Tough to see Dallas doing a deal with us though

We can offer Pionka and throw in a syllable

 

Lesson to all young coaches - entertain the media... it buys you an extra year or two

Don't we have enough #6/#7 dmen on this team?

 

 

6yr/61m 

Fudge me.

I'm mostly thankful that we won't have to read non stop about Marner... that was annoying as hell. 

Wow no way we can afford Laine now - and he’s not worth $11 mill a season 

don’t understand how Leafs are structuring their team salary... they must be pinned at the cap already

I like Mitch Marner a lot as a hockey player but he's not one of the best friends laters in the league, nor should he be paid like one...

I read something like 40m tied up in their core of Matthews, Marner, Tavares amd Nylander...

Bridge Laine or trade for really good Dman.

All you need is a couple stars to win a cup.

Package Laine and Little...

Too bad Provorov already signed... I'd deal Laine for him in a heartbeat... 

Definitely bridge Laine and then pay up if he gets back to his scoring ways.   To risky to drop the big money today on him.... 

All indications are Jets and Laine have agreed on length.. Its a bridge.  2 or 3 years.. Gonna be 6 7 million per is my guess. 6.5 x 2 or 3 years. Gives Jets time to lose some cap for LT via buff and Seattle plus Perreault kuli etc. 

Pretty credible guy on another site says Laine is coming to Winnipeg in a few days. Usually that means a deal is imminent.
