Ceci gets dumped on the jets on a daily basis.
The jet made Bitetto a decent dman in their system, Ceci might be worth the shot.

Generally RHDs are worth more than wingers. Think it's not EDM, rather TOR would be the one giving the pick.

I just tend to ignore all Ceci trades, it's always the same story with those. Dumping contract somewhere else with minimal return.

As for that Wild trade, I can't see them moving their 1st.

Actually Ceci has been better than Barrie for the first part of the season. But these anti Ceci tirades are not based on fact. The same people think Ceci is cap dump but somehow Barrie is worth of 7m next season, gee they have been reading CapFriendly posts and not watching any Leaf games. In this post, it's Ceci and Kapanen for Larsson. Certainly the Leafs lose on the ice with those deals just to switch Ceci for Larsson.

So ceci for hall?

Larsson is trash. In my opinion oilers should take this deal and run. I’m not a fan of it at all.

My thoughts exactly.

To your other point about hitting. Leafs are middle of the pack in hits per game. We are not an overly physical team but it certainly doesn’t suit our style or roster

I guess it's the chicken and the egg. The Leafs don't hit because they are not physical or are they not physical because they don't hit.

It isn't so much hitting, which I think is overrated, but some players avoid contact. It's my frustration with some Leafs and for years Kessel was the same. For instance a Leaf Dman will be engaged with an opposing forward for the puck. Nylander (for example) will just wait for the come out to him or poke at the puck. God man, all you have to is lean on the opponent and the puck will come to you or your defence mate.
And it's not like the Leaf players won't take a hit to make an offensive play, but it seems like they avoid contact to make a defensive play.

In reality, defenceman are valued for the contributions they make. Not because they are RHD or anything else. Larsson just isn't that good, and never has been. He's a #4 defenceman and that isn't worth a top 6 RW. Especially considering Kapanen would immediately be the best RW on the team. Larsson is going to get you an ok prospect and a 2nd.

Ceci was okay for a while but he really isn't good at all. The more I watch the more clear it is that he just doesn't have the mind needed to be an effective player. Upgrading his roster spot should be looked at if a fair deal materializes.

That is the only part of Nylander's game that frustrates me. If he was just a little more inclined to go in and battle, he'd be insanely good and who knows, he's looked far more engaged under Keefe so far, maybe he'll be able to morph him into a more tenacious player.

As for hitting, I agree its an overrated stat, a big hit can fire up a team and Muzzin does deliver that from time to time, as does Holl and even Rielly every once and a while but often running around trying to hit everything leaves you out of position and can cause problems if you miss the mark. Also, if you have the puck more, which TO does, you don't have as many opportunities to hit.

I'd question Kapanen being a top 6 RW though. Think mid-6 is more like it. TOP6 winger would mean that Kappy could work as a first liner, which isn't something he's suitable. If I had to pick between a mid-6 RW or a 2nd pair RHD, I'd take the D in almost any situation.

Oh and also, I wouldn't pay much more than a B-prospect and a 2nd for Kappy either.

His speed and skill with McDavid would be insane. You know with 100% certainty that is exactly where he'd start with Edmonton and likely do great things. He's shown he can play with elite Centres in Matthews and Tavares and would be a massive upgrade over the wing blackhole you have in Edmonton. Saying he is a middle 6 winger is just a semantics arguement to try to lower his value. He is a middle 6 winger in TO because they have two clear cut first line players ahead of him at RW. Which is why he's a 3rd liner in TO. Larsson on the other hand isn't really good. I'm not even sure his contract is worth his contributions.

If he was more than a middle-6 winger TOR would use him in there, probably put him in the left side. Last year he played a good part of the year with Matthews when Nylander was without a contract, without any better results he has put up this year to be fair.

Also actually I'm not that sold on Kappy being slotted to the first line in EDM, since their first line of Draisaitl-McDavid-Kassian has been great. Why should they break up the line? Also if their wingers were just as useless bunch as you seem to think, EDM wouldn't be near the top in the Western Conference and above TOR in the standings...

Semantics argument to lower his value? That's the exact opposite that TOR fans did back in the summer when they thought of moving Brown to EDM lol. I can't count how many times I saw people saying that "Brown would be a 25 goal scorer with McDavid." but that doesn't exactly mean that Brown was more valuable, rather that means that McDavid is valuable. The players you allegedly could play with does not effect on the player's value. I personally think you overrate Kappy just a bit.

Those Brown trades were usually a 2nd or 3rd round pick for Brown. And Kapanen is a RW and isn't half as effective on his off hand. He's admitted as much when he didn't get going playing with Tavares and Marner. However, he's been much better on his strong side. Anyways, it doesn't matter, Larsson is nothing special, he won't get you a top 6 winger.

Kapanen... played 1RW all season last year.

Kapanen is a top 6 player on 90% of the teams in the league. How many teams have a 90 point RW on the 2nd line?

By the same token, how many teams have 40 point RW in their first line?

I would venture a guess of about 25-30%. Teams with a 2nd line winger at 40-50 points I would say might be less as some teams may have wingers with less points.
