Description

Sure leaves a lot of question marks in the bottom 6 but the defence sure is better. And if Dermott takes a step and Lehtonen pans out, the defence could be incredible. I do fear the team would be similar to Edmonton in the sense that all their offence would come from the top 2 lines but with guys like Robertson, Barbarov and maybe even Hallander there is potential there as well. Not sure how it works long term but with the best still to come from Matthews, Marner and Nylander and the veteran presence of Muzzin, Spezza, JT and Pietrangelo, this would be a good team.

Standby for trolls to say every trade starts with Nylander.

Andersen, Frederik

Additional Details:

Other possible teams looking at Andersen would be Carolina, Edmonton, and others. Considering he's one of the best available and makes only 1 million he'll get a lot of interest from teams on budgets. Which is apparently 2/3rds of the league.

Additional Details:

Cost certainty for a team that wants to cut cost. Johnsson replaces Hoffman, albeit a lesser player but much cheaper and still capable.

This team would be lucky to make the playoffs, absolutely no forward depth

Certainly top heavy, but lucky to make the playoffs is just silly. The bottom 6 isn't the worst in the league. I'll agree that I am not comfortable with the 3C position but that can be addressed if it becomes a problem. Who knows, maybe Hallander pushes his way into that spot. Robertson is going to get better and wasn't bad in the playoffs. Barbarov is going to be a good player as well. The 4th line is going to be fine, and if we find a better 3C, and Engval goes down to the 4th then it's even better. Regardless, the top 2 lines are still stacked and will be so hard to contain and the defence is really good.

Hawks probably don't want Anderson, but that's fair value for him so good job there. Some leafs fans claim he's the best goalie in the league and demand that he is traded for value that shows that

Most fans think all their players are the best. It's not just leaf fans or all fans. I think I proved that.
