Description
Trade thinking...

Dallas: with 3 goalies signed to 14+ million, one has to go, and if a team can take that whole salary that's a bonus...we give up a good young D (something they need) a good LW prospect and a second. We also get Eakin (who just had a down year) to fill our future 3rd centre spot. Dallas had Seguin and Spezza in the top 6, and Faska, Shore, and Janmark ready to step up into that 3rd centre spot. TOR adds the 2nd to sweeten the deal

San Jose: if San Jose loses Marleau and/or Thornton they're gonna have wholes up front and some prospects who aren't ready to step up. They get a discounted C and LW who have played together for 4 years and are both coming off career years. In return we get our shutdown top 4 righty D man. To even it out we also get a no-nonsense young D who hasn't been given a full time gig yet.

Roster/line explanations: with a top 9 spot open, Kapanen undoubtedly moves up. Many have talked very highly of Dermott and I think he's ready to make the jump, especially if we have a physical stay home guy to play with him. If he needs another year, resign Hunwick for 1 more year. Boyle gets resigned as the goat is hurt (and probably not ready anyway). We over pay to lure him in and keep the contact under 3 years (so we have room to resign the kids) Depending on who vegas takes, soshnikov/Leivo/smith take the 4th line RW spot

Year after next... Lehtonens cap essentially goes straight to Nylander long term...I could see Grunnstrom taking Komarovs spot as a pest in the top 9, if he's not ready resign Komarov for one more year to let him/someone else develop. Other than that pretty similar team the next year

Lemme know what you think of the trade values!!!

    Dallas one might make sense because they are likely to lose Eakin in the ED if i had to guess. However, I don't think SJS bites on that trade with Sorensen and Meier able to replace Marleau and from the sounds of it Thorton is probably coming back. Plus they have Couture, Pavelski, and Hertl that can play center and even Karlsson if needed..

    If i was the GM of the leafs i wouldn't do either of these ... to me, a 1st/2nd liner and a 2nd liner can get you more than a 3rd pairing D and a guy with potential to be a 2nd/3rd pairing D. And i think a young D with TONS of potential and a prospect who we have no idea how good he's going to be AND a 2nd round pick is too much for Lehtonen and Eakin ... but that's all my opinion.

    Brown and Hyman are not getting 4 year, matching deals. That Eakin trade is brutal. Eakin is a 3C at the top end, and Carrick is a very solid, very affordable top 4 defenseman... IF they were to make a trade like that, and take Lehtonen back as well, there better be multiple picks going back to Toronto, not the way you have it now. Eakin is a 30-40 point guy under the best circumstances. If I were Dallas' GM, I'd be jumping all over this.

    Braun is a top 4 D on almost every team in the NHL plus has a great contract. I just look at Carricks playoff TOI and don't think Babcock/management loves or trusts the guy.

    Eakin has played a decent amount of time centering Benn and Seguin so I don't think he's a 3rd centre at best. Anyways he's more of a shutdown centre; I thought that would be attractive to a team with so many skille, offensive wingers. So maybe forget the 2nd and call it a 2 for 2 trade

    In regards to the San Jose trade, won't they lose one of their top 4 D in the ED? I feel he's the perfect fit to round out our top 4 (who isn't an elite D)
