Ecstatic about this signing.
Leafs will need to get creative on the cap side, but it's doable. I'd be surprised if they don't already have a plan in place.

Most lopsided trade ever...Lou Lamorello and Komarov for JT.
lol... No
Leafs drafted a 1st overall franchise center and signed another one two years later, essentially getting both without having to give up any other asset but money.
Trading Matthews would be like the Pens trading Malkin or Caps trading Kuznetsov. No, you keep them both. Especially when the one you drafted is only 21yrs old and has nowhere to go but up.
Couple things.
1) Marner better than Matthews lol
2) People saying “it’s just like Pittsburgh” seem to not understand Toronto will take ~5 years to get the cap situation Pittsburgh had when they actually won in 2016 and 2017 and also it takes a pretty special relationship to have to “alpha’s” defer and get along together.
My friend, just let go and enjoy the signing. There is no chance adding Tavares (in place of Bozak ... and JVR) goes wrong for them. No this doesn’t address their possible need for D, but let’s let Dubas do his thing. So far he’s been golden. And again... Tavares... is a Leaf... and it cost them nothing but money.
Well damn. Congrats Toronto. Even though I can't stand the majority of your fans on these boards, that is going to be a damn good and entertaining team. Well done.

Way I see it is that nobody else's top line is going to get an easy shift. Toronto iced the puck? Oh well, Matthews/JT/Kadri line was out there so they're not worried about the draw, and Babs can pop whichever line WASN'T out there for the transition.
As a Bruins fan I watched the division go from solid to likely the toughest in the East, and I really don't think my boys are the top of that pile on paper right now.
