The Leafs need to resign McCabe for sure. I think they could get him at $3.5 to $4M over a 5 year deal.
..Berube players…Mathews..no..Marner..no..Nylander..no..good luck with that..
McCabe is a must. No more bottom 6 forwards. We have enough. More and we will still be left with same core 4 only who can score
Undersized who can only muster 8 goals in almost 60 games.WHY ? No thanks.
Another bottom 6 forward who will get in the way of our young kids so they don't develop here and they flourish somewhere else? Please trade McCabe. He is making 4 mil, he is undersized, he is not good in front of the net, he is not creative, he finds himself at the blueline with Robertson covering for him in front of the net, and we can get a good haul if we trade him. We have salary retaind on him and his next contract will be about 5 mil so HARD PASS! Even about 3.5 mil he is still a HARD PASS! Trade Benoit too (finds himself out of position too often) too while you are at it and get guys who clear the front of the net, pick up the right man and can make a pass.
Yamamoto stinks. One of those guys who skates well and looks like they’re doing something but when you look back on a game he’s utterly inconsequential
Love McCabe so much ❤❤🎉
I'm inclined to agree that re-signing Jake McCabe is a good idea. He's a solid and at 30 yrs old probably has some good mileage left in him…but he'll probably be looking for a raise and the Leafs have only been paying $2M of his $4M salary. I think he's worth $4M+ but cap space is precious…and finding $2-$3 million to resign him might difficult to manage…still…keeping good defenceman should be a priority. As for Yamamoto, I think the GM would lean more towards wanting players with size…and offence. I'm definitely a supporter of smaller players with high end assets like speed, playmaking, shot speed and acccuracy…and even toughness(like a Garry Howatt!)…and Yamamoto did have a 20 gosl season with Edmonton and was a 1st round pick who apparently has some speed to offfer but I'm not sure that's enough. The Leafs need to get bigger and tougher. So, while I'm open to anything within reason to help the team, I'm giving the👎 on it. Good suggestion though.
McCabe is actually making over $4mil aav. Chicago is retaing half. No way McCabe resigns for less than $4
as an oilers fan who watched yamamoto from his beginning he isnt good, and he gets beat up a lot, VERY undersized
He is 5'8 nah team dnt need no small guys rather give Steeves a chance
I would definitely try to extend McCabe soon somewhere around 3.75m for 4 or 5 Years. Not sold on Yamamoto, maybe sign him to a PTO and see how he does in Pre Season and go from there. Thanks for the great content as always. Everyone have a Great Weekend!
Yes extend MᴄCᴀʙᴇ I think he’s been amazing so far
Have you heard the rumours of Matt Martin wanting to return to the Leafs (wants to exit Long Island)
Yamamoto 2 years on a league min contract I would consider
