![]() Unlike most of wimps out there today I think he’s strong enough to survive the media backlash. I’m sure the soft liberal Toronto fans would have a fit when someone with a little bit of personality joins the team. I’d love DeAngelo tho he’s exactly what the leafs need. ![]() Why on earth would the flyers want Nylander. A lot of ifs on that though so I don't seem them being interested really unless they want to be the ones who grossly overpay him with an extension lol. If they have the space and can retain 50% on him and if he's having a good year offensively they could get a haul at the deadline for him. Last thing the Leafs need is unwanted penalties at crucial times in the game.Ĭhickenfoot it depends. Great offensive dman not great defensively and his past will be nothing but a distraction. He also started a handful of fights and tension in the room while in New York. Yes that was years ago, but do you want that to be the topic of discussion after every single game for the Leafs because the Toronto media will absolutely destroy him for it and thus the publicity nightmare would begin. Pinball he was suspended a few times in juniors for uttering racial slurs at opponents and his own teammates. Nylander’s last year before becoming UFA isn’t valuable to a rebuilding team. I agree with what MG says, but I’ll add that there’s no surprise that the deal only suits the leafs without considering what a rebuilding team like PHI would need. But he does bring something to a Team talent wise every Team looks at getting, and he only has one year left on his contract which means if he doesn't workout he can walk after next season or even trade him during the season, DeAngelo isn't the main players involved but if he keeps it under control Toronto has added a Top Offensive Defender on the blue line. Ok so what has DeAngelo said that makes him a cancer on a Team?Īgain I know he is a hothead etc. Konecny and Laughton would be welcome additions to the team though if there was ever a way to get both of them. Tonnes of players in the league who are passionate and put their all on the ice who have not said the things he has. Locker room cancer, publicity nightmare, the list goes on. Toronto looking to shake up the culture and chemistry on the Team and a proposal like this does that, DeAngelo I will admit might be an issue but any problems that have happened in the past is because he is a passionate player and puts his all on the ice.įlyers both retooling and rebuilding does both in this proposal, WNylander along with Lafferty is the retool and Liljegren and NRobertson would be a part of the rebuild.ĭon't want DeAngelo anywhere near the Leafs. *Flyers retain 2.5 million of DeAngelo's expiring contract (50%)
