Nicely done. Leafs fans will scream as that is a bit pricey, but values are mostly reasonable across the board. Boston accepts btw. ??

This is really resobnable, as a buffalo fan this would likley be very good for buffalo to though was they would liley end with a high pick in the 2020 draft
Non of these trades are really out of favor for each team

I like the moves other than moving Schenn, I would much rather trade Schwartz or Tarasenko BUT if Schenn is to be moved I would hope to get more for him, I would say forget the picks and make the players better.
Try and get Krug and then a young player/prospect if not get Grezlyck and a higher end player/prospect.

Krug and Vaakanien and Backes
or
Grezlyck and Heinon and Backes

Exactly!

As a Leafs fan I really do like that trade, its reasonable and salary wise it works imo. Kapanen with ROR would be great duo.

I figured Schenn or Schwartz (moving Tarasenko seems like a poor move). Schwartz wouldn't get the right value because of injury proneness, and Schenn expires after next year. So Schenn made the most sense.

I threw in the picks because that's easier capital to move. Say they wanted to package the Toronto + Boston pick and move up in the draft I'm sure they could you know? Easier to do that than a known commodity.

Not getting both Krug and Urho. But Boston would much rather do Krug-Heinen-Backes than what is proposed but if you prefer it...be our guest.

Yeah I understand the reasoning. And the value is probably good, I just would rather see us get players to help the team right away while also getting picks (our 1st top 5 and the TOR pick).

Take out Liljegren and maybe it's a bit more fair. Maybe Leafs would need to add a but more but I don't think Leafs want to trade a top rhd prospect showing how shallow they are at that position.

I guess I do not know much about Vaakanainen and thought Heinen would be worth more, but I like the Krug-Hienen-Backes idea.

Would be better for us cap wise if Krug was involved as it allows us the space to after a RW like Toffoli. I like Heinen but as a LH wing he is expendable with Marchy-Debrusk there as top 6 LW, Heinen will never be more than LW3. And with Donato, Bjork, Cehlarik there as well plenty deep enough that they can afford to move him.

Leafs might pay close to that price for Parayko. Doubt they'll give up that much for Pietrangelo. Take out Liljegren and come up with another prospect dman. Liljgren has look incredible in the AHL as a teenage dman and is exactly what they need. With them showing a lot of patience with new management, I highly doubt they give up on him already for a dman thats not in their age group. Parayko fits their age group and what they need more. But you're not far off, a little overpriced and Leafs won't sell key secondary pieces when they're gonna need them to help with their cap situation
