Description
After the Tatar signing the top 9 seems pretty much set but the weak spots seem to be 4C (currently between Meyers, Foudy, Pavel, or shifting a winger to C), and the last D spot (currently between JJ, Malinski, Hunt, and Schueneman)

Leafs fans seem to be willing to dump both Timmins and Lafferty to get under the cap and a 3rd + 4th seems to match the fan base asking price

Would need to put MacDermid on waivers and run a 22 man roster to just barely fit under the cap but I think its worth it to address the teams 2 biggest weaknesses

Leafs Nation is large so lots of different opinions but I am not in favour of moving either of these players for that type of return; although given circumstances - offer seems fair enough. Personally I would prefer to run a 20 man roster than dump good players for mid picks

It's a really bad trade for Toronto.

Should be a 2nd and 3rd for fair value.

now that the 3rd line is solidified i think we go more of a veteran presence on 4C. If we didn't sign tatar i think lafferty would have been a good addition but you won't get his best results running 4C, i think that role needs to be filled by someone with more grit. And same kind of thing for timmins, i do like timmins and if we go another route next year with toews or byram i think adding him to the mix would be a good addition but for that bottom role we need someone who can last during the playoffs and play with some grit if manson goes down, timmins does not fit that bill.

3rd and 4th is more than enough, especially with the Leafs cap situation. More like a 4th and a 5th. Would be ideal to round out the roster. Even better if we could actually find someone to give up something....anything....for K Mac.

Really tho? Timmins you can make a case for getting a second, but given that he would need to pass waivers and you guys are in cap hell lowers his trade value. And you can't seriously want more than a 4th for Lafferty if we're giving you a 2nd for Timmins
