I endorse this general plan, with the caveat that you might quibble with the value of Steve’s hypothetical trade returns (though I think they’re pretty reasonable) and your mileage may vary on his proposed replacement targets. But broadly, this is what the Leafs should be attempting.

Going to see them with Florry at the end of the month in Montreal! Looking forward to it. I’m more of a Florry guy, but I’m gonna have to sink my teeth into this new Ratboys record.

Ah, Sunday afternoons. Is there anything more well suited to you than a new book and a few records?

What do you MEAN the president audibly SHIT himself live on camera and they immediately cancelled the press conference and rushed everyone out of the room like it's a fire drill, and it happened two days ago, and I'm just hearing about it NOW?
