John Bacon Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Having Shanny, Babcock and Lamarello is not going to fix anything laffites because the team still sucks and you have a minor league roster at best. I predict the laffs will miss the playoffs again with a dismal 25 win -57 loss season. Do you honestly think putting big names in the office is going to make the team and players better? I think that missing the playoffs this year and next is part of the plan. You don't trade for draft picks so you can turn the team around in one year. Leafs also picked up a scout. http://www.torontosun.com/2015/07/20/maple-leafs-snag-top-red-wings-scout?ref=yfp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Read somewhere this morning Bernier is asking for 5.1 a season and management is offering about 2 mil less, wonder how this is going to turn out. Don't think he is worth 5 honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookinforwalleye Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Well playing goal for the Leafs can be tough because the last few years defense has been a after thought for the most part...is Bernier a good number 1 goalie who knows for me he lets in too many softies...Price makes 6.5 Bernier at 5.1 seems a little out of whack to me!!!

leaf4 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I could see him getting 3.5-4 on a year or two, but since the leafs started the arbitration they have to accept what the arbitrator awards him and can't do a thing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glen Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 He ain't gunna take anyone to the cup. They need a few prospect goalies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Id be happy to see both netminders move. Bernier will get awarded that through arbitration based on shots faced and games played alone IMO. Id rather ship off bernier and keep whats his name for a few years until a proven netminder is available later in the rebuild. Whoever is in net for the next 3 years doesnt even matter, they are gonna get lit up. If I was bernier id wanna move anyhow. If he stays on for the rebuild his career is most likely done,or at the very least hes back to being a number two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 The goalies are fine,So far keeping Dion?Everything will work out wonderfully Get rid of Bernier and Dion.These two are not what we need going forward IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Id rather ship off bernier and keep whats his name Riemer will be fine. Still very young and Lets get some good goal tending coaching. I would like to see Cujo there.needs someone in his corner, not against him Edited July 29, 2015 by Brian B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Riemer will be fine. Still very young and Lets get some good goal tending coaching. I would like to see Cujo there.needs someone in his corner, not against him Reimer will NOT be fine in a rebuild. Its the end of his career if he sticks around in TO. No matter who the goaltender is in a rebuild hi is gonna get lit up so bad its not even gonna be funny. I mean I like reimer, he shows alot of promise and I love his attitude. But he wild it net, all over the place. If it takes a goaltender coach to tell him to "stay on your feet" then so be it. IMO he'll be gone in 2 years max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 He's a UFA next year. He will be gone by July2nd of 2016. Either in a trade or by getting picked up after he becomes a FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Reims needs to move on to greener pastures.. I think Bernie can be the Leafs #1, but not at that salary range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKRISONER Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) bernie will get 4.7 for a year reims needs a new look... bernie can be a #1 with a proper team in front of him. Edited July 30, 2015 by AKRISONER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostAnotherOne Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Get rid of both especially Reimer. Love him to do well somewhere else. Bring in a backup goalie and make him the starter. If Leafs are going to do this rebuild thing they better do it right. Bernier is not a garbage goalie and can win some games which we don't want. Hopefully a 0-82 record for the upcoming season.

manitoubass2 Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Might as well let reimer take the 55 shots a night because he is not an NHL caliber goaltender. He'll be done in 3-4 years anyhow. Use him When a good goaltender becomes available get him. In the meantime let Reimer get blasted for 40 games and bring up a newcomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont have the option because it was club elected arb therefore the leafs must pay what the arbitrator decides no questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Reimer as we forget,won a lot of games single hand idly. Move Bernier,and run Reims till a new goalie may comes forward.I like him and will give you his heart if given a more permanent role i believe.JMO as always.

leaf4 Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Crazy no ones brought up Patrick Kane yet. Seems weird how much attention it gets with so little reported. yet it seems as if its being approached differently than other cases with different celebs. I really hope its not true and in all reality (my mind) if he was that hard up could he not just get a hooker lol I mean he made 6.3million last year, and is going to be making 10.5 for the next 8... The one guy who wrote the "Patrick Kane is not your friend piece" is really painting a bad picture IMO. Hope its just a bad judgement call on the girls part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
