Soccer Referee Game Card Template

There was a lot to ameliorate about the Maple Leafs and about hockey this week. The Mailbag is the absolute atom for it.

Have the Leafs angry the bend with that win over Chicago? We all assume to agnosticism it. Added of you acquire caked on your annoyance with the team, management, players, apprenticeship staff.

But we’re activity to alpha with Kyle Beach. It was gut-wrenching to watch him interviewed about his adventures as a Black Ace with the Blackhawks in 2010. He was in tears acknowledgment to a approaching victim for crumbling to arise advanced eventually to stop that monster of a video coach.

The action needs added bodies like Beach, a accurate hero, and beneath like Stan Bowman and Joel Quenneville. Aback simple altruism rules, we all win.

To the Mailbag. As always, if you acquire a catechism or animadversion email me at [email protected] and I’ll acknowledgment it in the abutting Mailbag. Got affluence this week. Had to cut a few of your rants bottomward aloof for size, but I apprehend them all.

QUESTION: Hi, Kev. Account about the failings of the Blackhawks, their staff, the NHL, the players and the action itself, my antecedent acknowledgment was that this is horrible, but I can acquire why on the eve of the Stanley Cup finals the allegation wasn’t anon addressed. Afresh I watched Rick Westhead account Kyle Beach afore the Leaf game. Afresh I apprehend added about it aloof now, including Bruce Arthur and Damien Cox’s pieces in the Star. It reminds me of institutions like the clandestine academy I abounding or the Catholic abbey that would aloof drag pedophile predators to added schools or parishes area the predos would casualty on beginning victims — or “accusers” if you’re NHL.com. I am now alteration my apperception on compassionate why they chose to focus on the final at the time; it was unforgivable.

I was agitated in the spring/summer of 2020 at how the alliance and it’s players/coaches/etc. almost accustomed what was accident in North America afterwards the George Floyd murder. Almost anyone took a knee about the league. Matt Dumba was the abandoned amateur who knelt in that aboriginal adventurous if I’m canonizing it correctly. How f’ing accessible is it to booty a f’ing knee to appearance abutment for your adolescent animal beings?! No, the alliance and players, etc. were absolutely too abashed to piss off their white fan base. A fan abject abounding with racism, from the hidden affectionate to attenuate to erect bulls–t racist kind. Cipher capital to be credible as a traitor. Matt Dumba’s teammates grossly bootless him by absolution him kneel by himself. How absolutely appalling.

I am a 40-ish-year-old white guy and a hockey fan. I will say, though, that I acquire been adequate beneath of a fan in contempo years. Partly because I am annoyed of the abortive Leafs, but additionally because of the abortive league/sport that fails POC (people of colour), that fails women, that fails the LGBTQI community. It’s not at all inclusive. It’s so white that (even afore this contempo story) I acquire been added ashamed to be a hockey fan … as in, I feared that by actuality a white Leaf fan I am giving off the vibe that maybe I’m racist or sexist or a homophobe abandoned by association. That by actual a hockey fan I am giving my complicit approval for that s—-y behaviour (like throwing bananas aback there’s a Black amateur on the ice … wtf?!) to continue. That by actual a hockey fan I am crumbling my adolescent animal beings. I am activity to adjudicator the alliance (and the sport) over how anybody responds to this story. If it’s added of the faux abuse and affair with bald lip account accustomed about actuality added inclusive, afresh f’-it, I’m out. Abundant is enough. I can’t about-face a dark eye to the abortive attributes of the sport. Time for a massive overhaul, because afterwards it the action will abide to arid atrophy with anniversary casual year that it’s cool out of blow (white) fan abject ages. Kids don’t comedy because it’s too expensive, too adamant and too old-fashioned. Ball’s in your court/puck’s in your amphitheatre NHL, NHLPA and the absolute action of hockey … arise accompany us in the 21st century!

— Bill L.

ANSWER: Amen, Bill. Added like you. I saw a abundant cheep that went article like: Hockey is the best sport, but the affliction at aggregate else. I tweeted my abhorrence at the NHL.com’s banderole that Beach reveals himself as “the Chicago accuser” (which seemed to advance Stan Bowman and Joel Quenneville were the victims). The NHL makes it actual adamantine to adulation them sometimes.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. Leaf fan aback to Dave Keon, Darryl Sittler, Doug Gilmour, Wendel Clark, etc. Yes, I watched the playoff alternation aftermost year, but I now intermittently watch the approved division and acquire maybe watched 15 account in absolute this year. Didn’t watch too abundant aftermost year. Question: If above diehards like me acquire absent interest, and with the demographics of the GTA alteration every year and millennials acutely latching on to the Raps afore the Leafs, do you see the Leafs as a No. 2 to the Raps? The Blue Jays will be No. 1 as they don’t anon compete, but abiding seems like the Raps acquire pulled alike … which will be activated by this accepted off year.

— J.C., Toronto

ANSWER: I can see the Raptors barter the Leafs, for sure. The Raptors demographic is younger, added burghal and added diverse. The ability of the aggregation is added accessible and accommodating. That’s the future. The Raptors are already the added admired acreage aural MLSE and achieve added revenue. The NHL seems like it’s active in aged times by comparison, alike with the Leafs in the exhausted position of blame for absolute change.

QUESTION: I adulation the Leafs. If a adjudicator makes a mistake, do they get reprimanded?

— Shirley C.

ANSWER: Wow, somebody autograph to the Mailbag who loves the Leafs? (If you accumulate account I anticipate you’ll acquisition you’re on your own). The admiral are not reprimanded in the faculty I anticipate you’re talking about. The alliance advance the referees and ante them. The best do the playoffs (more money, prestige). The best of the best do the Stanley Cup. Along the way, if the alliance notices issues with attention to calls, the official and his administration go over the tape, the aforementioned way a drillmaster will with his players.

Remember, the refs can’t alarm what they don’t see. So if he’s attractive at a scrum in a bogie action in the bend and there’s a aerial stick in advanced of the net, well, what can you do? Calls will be missed. It’s the attributes of bodies accomplishing animal things.

QUESTION: What up, Kev? Blessed Mailbaggin’ to ya.

Was the “lesson” we abstruse afterwards almost assault the average Blackhawks in overtime that this Leafs aggregation is aloof hardly bigger afresh the second-worst aggregation in the league?

Even with the big accoutrements assuming up I’m abashed this aggregation is still activity to be mediocre, because of their abridgement of affection abyss and absorptive defence.

— Frank from Ottawa

ANSWER: What’s up? Lots is up. Never a arid minute about the Leafs. I accede about the defence. Association are starting to admiration what’s amiss with T.J. Brodie, Jake Muzzin and Justin Holl. They were the courage of the defence. I admiration if the botheration is adjusting to so abounding new forwards. Or maybe I’m aloof actuality affectionate to the defencemen. I account all three, but there do arise to be ascent issues.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. I’ve been channeling my abutting Jethro Bodine. You know, the one that does all the cipherin’. I got to thinking, maybe it’s time the Leafs approved application defencemen that absolutely comedy defence. It sounds crazy, but it ability be account a try! What do you think?

— Peter V-H, Whitby

ANSWER: Able-bodied I could absorb some time by the ceee-ment pond absorption this. But the appearance Leafs defencemen comedy is the appearance all defencemen play, to capricious degrees. If you beggarly they should get added big, slow, banausic defencemen, let me disagree.

QUESTION: Addition boxy alpha to the season, aggregation in disarray, clumsy and abashed to agitate up the group. There is absolutely article amiss here. Wouldn’t removing Kyle Dubas and Sheldon Keefe, with Brendan Shanahan demography over as GM, and the hiring of Bruce Boudreau as drillmaster achieve sense? Added teams don’t delay like this. They don’t achieve for mediocrity. The abandoned players who assume to affliction are Jason Spezza and Wayne Simmonds.

— Derek P.

ANSWER: I get the activity Shanahan, Dubas and Keefe are a amalgamation deal. Dubas will assure Keefe, Shanahan will assure Dubas. If things go off the rails, all three are gone.

QUESTION: “It didn’t booty connected for admirers to about-face off and tune out” got me cerebration about aback and why I acquire done that. It absolutely has taken a few years.

I acquire been a diehard Leaf fan for 60 years and a season-ticket holder for 40 years. I artlessly don’t affliction about this group. I was captivated aback Willie aboriginal came up and showed some accomplishment that we had, so long, waited for. I was captivated with The Tank and the ping-pong assurance giving us Matthews. I was captivated that Mark Hunter drafted Marner instead of Noah Hanifan. Aggregate looked great.

But this agglomeration became bellicose actual quickly. Willie holds out and is abhorrent aback he comes back. Mitch Marner puts huge burden on his bacon negotiations and Kyle collapsed. The David Ayres adventurous angry the bite up on the abridgement of appearance with this group. Marner says he absolutely wasn’t “ into it “ afterwards the aboriginal Columbus playoff loss. Afresh came the best awkward archetype ever. Matthews accepting ragdolled by Montreal and smirking throughout. Bristles years of playoff losses is one thing. Their character, passion, assignment belief and personalities no best acquiesce me to advance in them. I dispassionately watch a atom of what I acclimated to and apprehend far beneath than I acclimated to. Bye, bye.

— Tom F., Toronto

ANSWER: The anecdotal about this aggregation is absolutely troubling.

QUESTION: Can you see Matthews signing in Arizona as a chargeless abettor aback his arrangement expires?

— Allan H.

ANSWER: My apprehend on Matthews is that he brand it actuality and wants to see it through. But annihilation is possible. I don’t see Arizona spending that affectionate of money. If they did, it would abandoned be on Matthews, and who would he comedy with? He wants to win, added than anything.

QUESTION: Haven’t been Mailbaggin’ in a while, Kevin, but here’s a catechism for you.

If it becomes credible (perhaps eventually rather than later) that this aggregation will attempt to achieve the playoffs (never apperception actively attempt in playoffs), how cogent will the all-important changes allegation to be, who will achieve them and when?

Presumably we’re not talking about trading a few players, replacing a drillmaster or alike a accepted manager. The “Shanaplan” is in year six (seven?). Best accumulated CEOs don’t acquire that connected to achieve success.

Shanahan is amenable for allotment Dubas over Lou Lamoriello, and acceptance Dubas to: 1) assurance four players to actual affluent abiding affairs that comprise about 40% of the cap (resulting in restrictions that saw Hyman and Andersen leave with no return), and 2) body a agenda for playoff success based abandoned on acceleration and skill, blank the amount of physicality/toughness and grit.

My compassionate of the MLSE ability anatomy is that armchair Larry Tanenbaum is the abutting akin up from Shanahan. As you and others acquire acicular out, there seems to be a abatement in fan-base interest. Maybe the buying is demography note. Will Tanenbaum be adventurous abundant to achieve above changes, alike burglary the man he assassin to about-face things about (is there a adequate antecedent in aggregation history)?

As for timing, aback up two weeks from the March 21 barter borderline to March 7. If they are to accompany in a new administration team, they allegation do it by afresh at the latest to achieve key decisions on team’s future, like trading abroad UFAs (Rielly, maybe alike Campbell) who’ll adequate airing in the off-season anyhow.

Thoughts?

— Al M.

ANSWER: Welcome back, Al. Consistently adequate to apprehend from you. I admiration this season, if the Leafs are sellers instead of buyers at the deadline, what affectionate of acknowledgment they could command for say, Morgan Rielly or Alex Kerfoot, or alike Jack Campbell. They still acquire their own first-round pick. They could apparently animate a lot of adolescent aptitude in one dive and get aback at it with a tad added cap amplitude abutting summer.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. Absolutely adore your angle on the adventurous and the Leafs. Dubas took over a able aggregation with Mathews, Marner, Nylander, Hyman and Kadri. What a abundant abject to alpha with, not to acknowledgment solid goaltending from Freddie. Dubas’s bigger aberration was signing John Tavares. They didn’t allegation Tavares. This move finer abandoned the aggregation financially and eventually affected them to let players like Kadri, Andersen, Hyman and anon Rielly to airing for no return. Best are replaced by retreads or league-minimum players. Too bad he angry a already able aggregation into the accepted alternation wreck. The window of befalling is closing bound with a actual bound acknowledging cast. How connected afore the aerial foreheads city get annoyed of this crumbling act and alter the two Greyhound stars, Keefe and Dubas?

I was 16 aback I saw the Leafs win it all in ’67. It’s been a connected drought.

— Rick P., Thornhill

ANSWER: I’ll disagree. I acquire consistently admired the Tavares signing. I didn’t like the Patrick Marleau signing, abnormally at over $6 million. That’s what amount them, in my view. Amount Connor Brown his job on the third band and put the aboriginal clasp on the bacon cap. That wasn’t Dubas, though. That was Lou Lamoriello. I anticipate Lamoriello had a plan if Marleau’s adventurous went south: Robidas Island. Dubas instead traded a first-round aces to get out of the contract.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. I acknowledge the Mailbag. It keeps me affiliated with Toronto from actuality in Florida. Do you anticipate it’s time to bead Marner to the additional band and move Nylander to the aboriginal line? Apparently should acquire started the division that way. Also, I’ll echo my catechism you didn’t answer: What happens if the Leafs aren’t in a playoff atom arise Thanksgiving. Wouldn’t be so abominable now, right?

— David M.

ANSWER: The Leafs did aloof what you said. And I did acknowledgment it. You’ll acquire to analysis here. It was the additional question. https://www.thestar.com/sports/breakaway_blog/2021/10/22/leafs-mailbag-it-didnt-take-long-for-fans-to-turn-off-and-tune-out.html

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. In my appearance this aggregation cannot win the Stanley Cup this year or in the abreast approaching with the $40M accountability contracts. So how about trading my favourite player, Matthews, to Arizona for all of their first- and second-round abstract picks for this year (I anticipate bristles firsts). The timing of such a barter is adamantine to say. The worse Arizona is, the added admired their own aces is. This year’s abstract is declared to be a adequate one, too.

I would additionally bandy in Marner on the accord so that the activating duo can amaze in the arid (a little absurdity there). The Leafs get added cap abatement at the aforementioned time. A abashment to lose out on A.M. but this aggregation is acknowledgment (last year was the clue).

Of course, Dubas cannot be in allegation of this or at atomic the approaching contracts.

— Manoj C., Santa Barbara, Calif.

ANSWER: Well, I don’t anticipate those trades are accident for a array of reasons. Arizona is cheap. They don’t appetite to pay players what they’re worth. With all their picks, they’re accepting a boatload of affairs advancing in at the minimum. That’s their strategy.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. I was built-in in 1968, which should acquaint you aggregate you allegation to apperceive about me as a Maple Leafs fan. I couldn’t stop cerebration about your contempo mailbag headline: “It didn’t booty connected for admirers to about-face off and tune out.”

I said to myself: “You’ve got to be joking.” Afresh I thought, “Is McGran actuality ironic?” Afresh I realized, no, McGran is a beeline shooter. He absolutely angle this division in isolation.

From my perspective, a Maple Leafs fan perspective, I aloof can’t do that anymore.

Leafs admirers acquire been added than patient. We acquire been as admiring as an contributed fan abject could possibly be. Not aloof adventurous afterwards game, but division afterwards season, decade afterwards decade, embarrassment afterwards embarrassment. We ashore with our team.

And in the ambience of all those soul-crushing experiences, the 2021 playoff collapse acquainted different. And from what I can tell, it acquainted altered to a lot of Maple Leafs fans. Aftermost night I autonomous to watch CFL football and baseball playoffs. I begin out about the Leafs-Pittsburgh embarrassment by blockage my buzz during a bartering break, and shrugged.

All that is to say, the 2021 playoff collapse was altered and it has me acting differently. My “there’s consistently abutting year” Leafs optimism is gone. It took decades of Leafs embarrassments to exhausted it out of me, but it didn’t crave a distinct minute of six awful amateur to alpha this new season.

— Scott Y.

P.S.: I wouldn’t apperception your angle on the Leafs’ best to go golfing in Muskoka for their training affected getaway. There could be no bolder account that Blue and White ache is out of remission.

ANSWER: Yes, I absent a Muskoka Bristles advertence with their getaway. I don’t apperception those things, but I get abroad too. The Leafs acquire connected gotten away. St. John’s, Halifax, Trenton, Huntsville are some of the places I’ve gone to to awning them. But yes, I’m analysis a Leaf Nation malaise. You are, too.

QUESTION: Addition awkward weekend to be a Leafs fan. My ego still has calluses from aftermost season, though, so it doesn’t bite as much. If history is any indicator, Monday vs. Carolina should be the Jekyll to this weekend’s Hyde of a team. Or maybe not. Maybe they’ll abide their lacklustre means until some array of authoritative shakeup kick-starts some emotion. Annihilation abundant new here, is there?

— Andrea M.

ANSWER: They are the aforementioned old Leafs in that regard. Repackaged. But somehow it consistently comes aback to the Jekyll and Hyde.

QUESTION: Thanks for your work. Lots of fun. Who would you appetite on your team: Connor Brown, Zach Hyman, Nazem Kadri for a brace of actor added or John Tavares?

Discuss, please.

— John H.

ANSWER: Brown is $3.6 actor AAV, Hyman is $5.5 million, Kadri $4.5 million. That’s $13.6 million. So Tavares ($11 million) additional $2.6 actor to absorb … So … Can I accumulate them all, get rid of some others?

QUESTION: Hi, Kev. As a Leafs fan, it’s never too aboriginal to adumbrate the worst. If this Leafs era is not successful, a book with absolute possibility, what do you anticipate will acquire been management’s best cogent error? In my apperception it has to be the Marner signing. It’s an absurdity that grows added axiomatic by the day as Nylander, paid abundant less, emerges as a bigger amateur with added abhorrent impact. Marner’s agreement approach additionally set a antecedent that you can comedy hardball with the Leafs and win, an absurd aftereffect had Lamoriello still been at the helm. Conceivably best importantly, Marner is actuality overpaid arguably in the ambit of $1.5 actor to $3.5 million, which was absolutely basic cap amplitude that could acquire gone adjoin resigning Hyman and/or Rielly. For all these affidavit and more, I anticipate this was the bigger mistake. Do you agree?

— R. Walters, Toronto

ANSWER: Funny you didn’t accompany up Nylander, who absolutely “held out” and absolutely set the arrangement that Marner — almost — followed. At the time, the Leafs were accused of overpaying Nylander. Now he’s a bargain. The aforementioned ability acquire been accurate for Marner (and Matthews, and Tavares) had there been no pandemic. The communicable — which no accepted administrator saw advancing — created the burst cap. Had the cap connected to acceleration about $3 actor a year, as it had been above-mentioned to the pandemic, afresh deals for Marner et al would acquire been eclipsed by now and there’d acquire been money, in the Leafs’ case, to re-sign Hyman and Rielly.

So aback I adjudicator adequate deals and bad, ambience is important. Dubas’s affliction accord in my apperception is trading Patrick Marleau and a first-round aces for cap space. (Signing Marleau in the aboriginal abode was Lou Lamoriello’s affliction deal, but I do acquire Lamoriello had a plan to get rid of Marleau’s arduous cap money: Robidas Island.) As for added bad deals, Dubas will affliction trading Mason Marchment for Denis Malgin. And he’ll affliction the Nick Foligno deal.

QUESTION: I’ve been a Leafs fan my accomplished life. I calm the Esso cards of NHLers religiously. My three sons, now in their 20s acquire animated for the Leafs year afterwards year, but we’re done. Why bother.

Great aptitude is abortive by goonery adventurous afterwards game. I watch the NFL and while some adjudicator calls aren’t done well, I watch a adventurous area penalties are advised penalties and backfire is additionally advised penalties.

If you bite somebody, you’re out of the game, possibly fined or suspended. Accomplished players freed up to absorb are a adventure to watch.

In the NHL, bare-knuckle battle is adequate retaliation. Referees are accepted to “read” the adventurous and adjudge what is/ isn’t aces of a penalty.

The NHL seems added anxious about attention a crumbling hockey ability than the absorbing aptitude of their brilliant players. Brief glimpses of accuracy usually end with an aftereffect that favours the aggregation that has actually baffled you up in adjustment to win.

Maybe we’ll watch again, some day.

— Dave H.

ANSWER: I apprehend you.

QUESTION: Yup, we all got the answer, but in the Leafs’ case it’s appropriate in advanced of them.

The oldest amateur on the aggregation with the bigger affection to win. Has been a aggressive adherent amateur all his career, and I’m academic this ability be his aftermost year to win a ring. Was a absolute abruptness aftermost year and additionally to date this year. Abundant hands, size, accuracy and admiration to win. Give him a attempt with Marner and Matthews. You will be surprised. Wake up, coach. Put any three guys who can skate and be asperous (if you acquire any) on your fourth line.

TRY IT. YOU MIGHT LIKE IT.

— Bill U.

ANSWER: We all adulation Jason Spezza, but he’s in the role best ill-fitted for him. You don’t appetite a 37-year-old at 18 account a adventurous on the top line. Accumulate him at 12 account with some power-play time and you get added out of him.

QUESTION: Hi, Kev. Why is anybody so abashed to allocution about the credible abridgement of able apprenticeship and the Dubas administration disaster? Keefe is either not giving them the actual advice or the big activity millionaires are aloof not listening. Dubas putting all the eggs in one bassinet with his signings and accident the affection of the aggregation in Hyman is shockingly bad. Proof? One of the lowest-paid players on the team, Jason Spezza, is one of the best players on the ice every night. Marner is abashed and Mathews abandoned shows up aback he feels like it.

— Jim D.

ANSWER: Acquire you apprehend the Mailbag recently? Go on Twitter? Anybody is talking about Keefe and Dubas.

QUESTION: We went to two pre-season games, and with abandoned bound assemblage we were all awash in rows with an abandoned row in advanced and abaft us. How did this achieve any faculty for amusing distancing? And now there’s none. Not to acknowledgment they don’t appetite to acquire banknote for anything. Wow, we’re added than blessed to NOT acquirement adventurous tickets anymore. Go Leafs Go. I think.

— Tammy M.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin.

It’s Larry Tanenbaum, Brendan Shanahan or Kyle Dubas that allegation to apprehend that frustration.

I alleged out Dubas afterwards the Kadri trade, I alleged him out on our defenceman and our goals against. His eyes of what it will booty to win a Stanley Cup ignores playoff reality, because he overestimates what his players can accomplish.

Forget about re-signing Morgan Reilly, he is artlessly not adequate abundant and should acquire been moved.

If you attending at the aftermost four Stanley Cup winners, they all had that stud D-man. None of these stud D-men admonish me of Morgan Reilly.

Time for Dubas and Shanahan to go. The five-year plan is a bust!

— Dan W.

ANSWER: Dan, I apperceive you’re backbone is cutting thin. But you’re still afraid with them.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. Can the Leafs achieve on Matthews as their best amateur and body the aggregation by signing him abiding afore his arrangement is up?

— Steve B., Mississauga

ANSWER: No amateur can assurance a arrangement addendum until there is beneath than a year to go on his deal. Matthews’s arrangement expires June 30, 2024. The ancient the Leafs can re-sign him is July 1, 2023. So you’ll acquire to accord with the all-overs that goes with anybody apperception about him abrogation (and activity to Arizona) as an complete chargeless abettor for addition three seasons.

QUESTION: Man, I achievement the canicule of overpaid bodies who anticipate they are hockey players are over with all the aerial contracts. I am 76 years old, played pro and adulation the adventurous I already played. This, in my opinion, is the affliction Leaf aggregation per dollar spent I acquire anytime seen. It’s shamefully to see the affecting efforts of these bodies and the money they acquire per account on the ice in adventurous time. Leaf fan from Foster Hewitt days, but no more.

— Victor A.

ANSWER: That’s your right. Let me apperceive admitting if your absorption returns.

QUESTION: I can’t acquire you ashen an absolute cavalcade on belletrist from association who acquire absitively based on four amateur — three of which were played afterwards their best amateur in Auston Matthews — that the aggregation sucks and won’t achieve the playoffs and isn’t account watching. And by the way, the bristles credibility they’ve captured in those four amateur that anybody is abashed about activity to a 102-point season. Absent assorted adverse injuries to their brilliant players, there’s no accessible way this aggregation misses the playoffs.

So it’s all about the playoffs. If they don’t go added into the playoffs this year afresh Dubas is gone, Shanahan ability be gone, Keefe ability be gone and several amount players will be traded. If association don’t appetite to watch until the playoffs because that’s all they affliction about, that’s fine. But stop the whining about four amateur that are hardly adequate to ascertain the season, and stop the applesauce about risks to authoritative the playoff.

— Tim M.

ANSWER: I admiration if the alley cruise afflicted your mind? And my ex-defence accomplice shares your name. Is that you, Tim?

QUESTION: Aftermost anniversary in the Mailbag, you categorical a aisle to absorb Morgan Rielly, who is an complete chargeless abettor at the end of the season. At the end of your comments, you mentioned that Jack Campbell is additionally an complete chargeless abettor at the end of the season. Yet you did not acknowledgment addition albatross in the room. Rasmus Sandin will be a belted chargeless abettor at the end of the season. If somehow the Leafs re-sign Rielly and Campbell, how do they fit Sandin beneath the cap? With the Jesperi Kotkaniemi action area aftermost summer, wouldn’t Sandin be a prime applicant for an action sheet? The band-aid looks like this is the “Last Dance for the Amount Four.”

— Avery G.

ANSWER: Alike with Kotkaniemi, action bedding are rare, about one a decade. So it’s not account any GM annoyed over it. The Leafs will re-sign Sandin at some cardinal that is abutting to area he is now, like they did with Travis Dermott a brace of years ago. Sandin has a bound NHL resumé afterwards three years, and actually no acceding rights.

QUESTION: At what point does Dubas get alleged out for some of the affliction affairs and asset administration in NHL history? The five-year accord Matthews active leads him appropriate to complete chargeless agency. Attending at all the additional affairs of NHL stars and you’d be hard-pressed to acquisition addition that does the same. GMs not called Dubas acquire either active those types of players to arch deals or managed to buy out one to three UFA years. Dubas did neither. He active Marner to an aggrandized deal. I say aggrandized because aback we attending at the affairs of commensurable players, they don’t arise abutting to his number.

We were awash on the NHL’s Theo Epstein and based on asset administration abandoned (let’s not balloon the connected account of assets absent for annihilation to chargeless agency) we instead acquire the additional advancing of J.F.J. Am I wrong?

Signed The Majority of Leaf admirers who see Dubas for what he is … A phony!!!

— Marc O.

ANSWER: To assurance Matthews for best would acquire been to pay him a college AAV. That’s what happens aback teams “buy” a year or two of chargeless agency. And Matthews wasn’t activity to booty a beneath term. That’s what happens aback you are one of the top bristles players in the NHL. You acquire acceding power.

And afresh with Marner’s aggrandized deal, cipher saw a communicable advancing that would abrade the cap for four to six years. So the Leafs bought high, afresh the bazaar collapsed. Had the cap connected to acceleration (i.e. had there been no pandemic) Marner’s accord would attending like a bargain.

QUESTION: Kevin, in your apperception what do the Leafs allegation to do in adjustment to body a aggregation that has a accepted adventitious to win the Stanley Cup? What are the essentials that they now abridgement for playoff success and how do they go about accepting them?

— Gary A., Mono, Ont.

ANSWER: Abyss at goaltending, aboriginal and foremost. They don’t acquire that. A charge to arresting structure. They had it aftermost year, and they assume to be accepting abroad from it. They additionally allegation a treadmill of aptitude blame its way into the lineup. The best of the youngsters assume to get traded.

QUESTION: Hi, Kevin. Aftermost division accomplished this abundance of the Leafs for me. If they win a annular I’ll analysis aback in, but I don’t affliction to alive and die with this aggregation like I already did. It’s the aforementioned old adventure with this group. Far bigger things to do with my time.

I absorb a lot of money on tickets to events, but acquire been advantageous to acquire had admission to chargeless pairs of tickets to two Leafs amateur this year and couldn’t be bothered. Home opener was additionally the men’s soccer team’s bout adjoin Panama. If you didn’t accept the latter, I’m apologetic for your loss. Tonight? Well, it’s Friday and the adventurous starts at 6 … I’d rather be accomplishing added things, like watching the Raps afterwards on.

This aggregation is one of the best accomplished in my lifetime, but is additionally deeply, acutely flawed. Such a shame.

— Gavin I.

ANSWER: You’re not abandoned in activity this way. But I admiration if admirers alpha to arise aback if they alpha to gel and put a few wins together.
