He will be pushed out of the town within 3 years, Goes to an american team and do just fine there.
not gonna lie, the way they did this first pick was a bad omen.
The draft , most years and definitely with generationals, is rigged to help Canadian teams. Leafs are corrupt cheaters, not that it helps, clearly. So is Edmonton and all the others.
didnt miss a single leaf game or steve dangle vid from the tavares signing until this past season. My passion is reignited. Glad to be back.
McKenna to the Leafs seems like a waste…
If you ask me, the punches he laid on bozo, and the slash, only increases his draft stock for me. Im so happy we got someone who has a temper๐ญ๐๐ญ๐๐
not gonna be in the lineup??? That is the stupidest thing i ever heard.
How we got here? Steve wake up!..we have been here for 60 years!!!!
Liked specifically for the "been making leaf videos since longer than Gavin mckenna has been alive "๐
Welcome to Toronto Mr McKenna
Iโll say something I havenโt heard and not that McKenna wasnโt captain obvious here but besides that I have a feeling Chayka might actually know what he is doing he definitely had the Golden Horseshoe that is for sure
I look forward to seeing him in a Florida Sweater by 2029 when he eventually signs with us!
2067 and still no cup…
Should have drafted Stenberg ๐
When they mentioned there being a special fan there to announce the pick, for a moment, I wondered if we'd see a Tom Grossi moment with Steve.
as a Torontonian who lived in Whitehorse for 2 years and had my daughter born there I'm SUPER PUMPED!!! Leafs got a Sourdough!!
That poor kid. He doesnโt deserve this ๐
Yes, McKenna played young men. Stenberg played against actual, professional, seasoned veterans in one of the top leagues on the planet.
Wtf are people thinking?
Can we just say ONCE that he went to NCAA for the money? Let's just say it once. Perhaps he went for the money.
Ya'll need to smoke a blunt and chill
Poor McKenna
Leafs will get gifted another #1 pick in 2036 at the draft in Buffalo after having failed to win a cup. Because history.
Ivar Stenberg!!
Toronto needs to make some big moves san jose just got 3 first rounders
And now we wait 10 years to see if they can get it done, or if we end up with another "An Era Wasted" video.
Knies and McKenna will terrorize this league together.
We lost a very high skilled player that did many things for the Buds in Marner.
Now we drafted a highly skilled player that likes to watch. Time, media and fans won't be kind to Gavin if he's struggling. Very talented and skilled player but in my opinion the Buds chose wrong. I wish Gavin nothing but the best for his career.
Ivar Stenberg was ready now. Highly skilled 2way player that played in the 2nd best league other than the Nhl.
Now we get to watch him and Celebrini turn into Wonder twins activate ๐
2 years remaining in Austin Mathews contract. Hope us Leafs fans have patience when there are bumps along the road.
Go Leafs ๐
Congrats on drafting the second best winger! North Americans will continue to underestimate kids who play against pros in Europe. McKenna will be great, but this past season he was pretty good against other kids. Stenberg was fantastic against grown ups. Also Stenberg made his debut for Sweden's U-18 as a twelve year old, his hockey sense is off the charts. As a Swede, I'm happy SJS got him ๐
Isnโt Domis career over? The poor kid has a back injury that is unsolvable?
Chayka . . . . " we got our guy "
I would have thought that you of all people would have demanded he go to prison for such a violent assault?
Can't get this extreme buzz on a first draft pick people having about. Like it's a 200% guarantee of 5 Stanleys in one season at a minimum.
