Morning Mashup: Leafs Extend Boyce

As Ryan reported yesterday, the Maple Leafs have re-signed Darryl Boyce to a one-year, two-way extension. The 27-year old forward, who had 13 points in 46 games, will earn $700,000 in the NHL and $105,000 if he is assigned to the Toronto Marlies. His $105,000 AHL salary is key because anything in excess of that number would mean Boyce would have to pass through re-entry waivers if he doesn’t make the team out of camp. The two-way deal is important in that way in terms of the flexibility the Leafs will have with Boyce.

It is nice to see at least one of Boyce or Brent rewarded with a contract by the club. Most would have taken Brent over Boyce in a perfect world but given Brent was getting a one-way contract somewhere else if not here and Boyce has been developing in the Maple Leaf organization since 2007-08 (when the Leafs picked him up as an undrafted free agent), it makes a lot of sense why it’s ultimately Boyce that’s returning.

Your Say:

Did Darryl Boyce deserve a one-way contract after his strong play during the second half of last season?

    my only complaint about this new system is that it is terrible to browse through on a mobile phone, or it is with my Atrix. I have to idle the article for a few seconds to wait for the comments to load and then begin the process of scrolling through loads and loads of comments just to get to the bottom. The site really needs to break things up into pages like it was before or add a skip to bottom feature at the top of the article.

    Everybody is convinced Eklund makes it all up, but did anyone ever stop and think that maybe this guy has such good source that he literally here’s every rumbling, which in turn doesnt lead to every many trades.

    Regardless the fact is that he has broken trades, and called trades months in advance (ie Phaneuf)

    The fact that he makes a living of it is just bonus.

    as Steve Dangle said, if you say that everyday will rain, it will eventually rain. However I do think he has sources, some of them might be rumblings but I think some of them are just made up stories imo, when he says something about the Flyers I think he is sorta reliable

    I completely agree, though we are probably at the opposite ends of the spectrum here and in the opposite camps.

    I am talking about the posters who have the “IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT THEN LEAVE” attitude. These people are what destroy a community. Problems need to be discussed so solutions can be found. Nobody should be run off the site just because they come forward with a complaint. Try to be helpful and offer Alec’s email if you cannot solve their problem.

    I find it a bit ridiculous that a few posters here take complaints about the site so personally and I can say from personal experience that it is these people who make this a very unwelcoming community which is unfortunate because a number of posters are actually great people.

    I agree and I’m trying to find this Alec’s email right now so I can forward him my suggestion. I am glad I am not the only member having issues.

    The biggest problem I find with the new system is though it works great on my iMac and iPad using the mobile version on my phone which I use more then the other two is very hard to follow you can’t se who people are replying too and there is only one page so when you get 500 posts or even worst 1000 when the season starts you end up scrolling forever. Seems like I end up following twitter more then I follow this site(which I dislike doing cuz this is the best site around)

    Sorry guys im not contributing much to current conversation by saying this..but what do ppl think about this trade possibility…
    -
    To Col:
    Schenn
    Bozak
    2nd
    -
    To Tor:
    Matt Duchene
    4th
    -
    Lupul-Duchene-Kessel
    MacA-Grabovski-Kulemin
    Kadri-Connolly-Armstrong
    Boyce-Dupuis-Brown
    -
    Phaneuf-Franson
    Liles-Aulie
    Gunnar-Komisarek
    -
    Reimer
    Gustavsson
    -
    Colorado gets their Adam Foote clone in Schenn, to resurrect E.Johnsons career, while still having a proven first liner in Paul Stastny, a 2nd in O’reilly, and a 3rd in Bozak. Leafs get their 1st line Canadian center to play with Kessel. This all being said, Duchene was a huge Avs fan growin up, so i doubt this could ever happen.
