Hmmmm - RD in an ideal world

Manson can be had, would likely need a third team involved as ANA would want/need a better younger more offensive RHD to replace Manson - why not ship Kap to Buffalo for Risto and flip Risto for Manson?

I mean ya...for sure. Could also make the trade larger to include other players from TO and ANA.

I think TO loses that trade unless something else comes back. Manson is the worst asset there, it's close but I feel TO need a little something else coming back. Maybe a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Ya? You like Ceci more than Manson (how)? Keep in mind Toronto is not only looking to add a viable RD, but they are trying to ditch Ceci's salary, which has a price.

That's fan and media based crap, trying to ditch Ceci I don't think so, if they were to bring in a viable legit top 4 RHD then yes for cap purposes they would want to move out Ceci any non playoff team with space will take Ceci for a small sweetener like a 4th and then also flip him with retention for a 4th. His salary is paid so out of pocket it's like 300,000 he's owed in actual money the cap hit is kinda meaningless at this point in the season
