Thread: Mock Hronek trades

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingExLeafs</b></div><div>Not big, mean or tough enough. And he's asking for too much money. Plus, why give up assets for Hronek when Montour is UFA, as well as other top 4 D?</div></div>

Hronek is 4 years younger. I would offer him 7.25m x 8 years. Montours contract will go until he is OLD OLD.

And not every dman needs to be big and mean. We went into the playoffs with Edmundson, Bush and Benoit. All 3 are solid individually. But they are all offensive black holes. Biggest reason why we couldn't score. We need to add more offense from our D, will making sure we still have toughness and size.

My preference

Rielly-Roy
McCabe-Hronek
Gustafsson-Tanev or Lily
Benoit-Timmins/Niemela

Good combo of physicality and scoring.

Thread: Mock Hronek trades

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingExLeafs</b></div><div>Leafs are not interested in Hronek.</div></div>

He would be a perfect addition for the Leafs. Not sure what you are on. Leafs need more than one D. We will also need a high end defensive RD. We can make the cap work by getting both.

Thread: Mock Hronek trades

I would be very interested in bringing Hronek in on the Leafs. My offer is 7.25m x 8 years though. if he want's more I pass.

I offer 1st + lily. I really hope the Leafs keep Robertson. I like him too much.

Thread: Marner is definitely going to Nashville

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kous</b></div><div>Players like Marner return 3-4 pieces (1sts and/or high level prospects)

Goaltenders return is way lower 1st + 3rd (on the high end)

So this package is not far off from a value perspective

But does this fit the need for the Leaf's? If they move Marner they need to bring back an elite D or a really good package of young talent.</div></div>

I would personally remove Schenn from this. Saros + 3 picks + 6m in cap space would be great. You use the cap space to sign the D we need.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kous</b></div><div>not for that package he ain't</div></div>

He won't get much more than this... What are you expecting?

Saros + 1st is reasonable. Everything else is bonus.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WN88</b></div><div>NSH has to add way more before the Leafs even consider.</div></div>

I believe Saros + 1st is fair. I would of course love more though. Saros + 1st + 6m in cap space would be the minimum in my mind.

This is clearly way more than enough for Marner. Now you are just trolling. But yes Knies is completely untouchable.

Thread: Barrys Blockbusters

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jonesey07</b></div><div>What an insane overpayment for 1 year of Marner.

If we trade for him, it will be a Saros/Marner swap.</div></div>

He threw in Knies as well. Who is 100% not for sale.

But I agree the package needs a lot of reworking.

I personally believe Saros + 1st for Marner would work perfect for both teams. Assuming Saros and Marner both extend long term.

Thread: Barrys Blockbusters

Knies is not for sale. Mitch will be though.

So make a package just for Mitch.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Vancity2196</b></div><div>I’m pretty sure Filip Hronek’s next contract is around $7.5/$8M per year.</div></div>

yes I did 7.25m x 8 years here. So we are both on the same page.

So it doesn't fit for Vancouver?

I really like it for the Leafs. Not sure it does for Vancouver though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mv21227</b></div><div>If the Canucks can flip that pick for a top 6 winger I’d do that trade</div></div>

Late 1st can get a lower end top 6 guy. But there are a few options in free agency also.

Thread: Saros and Hronek

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Vancity2196</b></div><div>Hronek to Leafs?
Why?</div></div>

Leafs need to upgrade their D and they really need to add more offence to their D group. They have generated very little offence from their D for years.

Why not?

Thread: Marner to Seattle

Thanks!! I Knew about Florida, Alaska, Tennessee and Texas. Didn't know the others. I am Canadian so I don't need to know them all. But being a hockey nerd, this is helpful info. So thank you!

But I am surprised Washington state is on that list!

You sure Seattle has no state tax? that would surprise me considering they are a perpetual democrat run state. Now you are making me google american tax laws... haha

Thread: Marner

we only have 1 right shot RD in this scenario. I love the Chychrun add (if he extended). But I would use him on LD. We need a RD more. or 2 RD.

I would accept that Seattle package very quickly. But I doubt Seattle trades Wright.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfkst1</b></div><div>Marner might waive. Tavares isn't unless CHI is signing him to an extension which would be very stupid for CHI.</div></div>

Thread: California Dreaming

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GeneralLandro</b></div><div>Certainly dreaming

We aren’t giving up anywhere near that for a Marner rental</div></div>

Let's be honest, if Marner went to Anaheim, he wouldn't be a rental. Trading for him without a contract negotiated ahead of time makes zero sense.

So it would be assumed that Marner gets extended her.

Thread: Leafs and Bruins Swap

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Boston would almost certainly find a first-round draft pick more appealing than one season of John Tavares, and there will be no shortage of teams offering the Bruins a first for Ullmark.</div></div>

I would be surprised if he gets a 1st. It's rare for a goalie to get a 1st. I assume a 2nd.

I know Kuemper got the 1st a few years ago, but I think Ullmark will be worth less. Time will tell!

Nashville would be a pretty sweet place to play. Why do you think Marner 100% says no to Nash?

Thread: Great summer

This d group has no offensive capability AGAIN.

I like all the players individually but we need 2 more right shots and we need more scoring and puck moving from our D.
