This SJ TOR trade just makes too much sense for both teams

Team: 2019-20 San Jose Sharks

Initial Creation Date: Dec. 29, 2019

Published: Dec. 29, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

TOR's desperately thin at defense and Dillon provides that defensive defenseman type of top-4 depth as a heavy, hard-hitting but still smart and experienced dman. Melker provides excellent bottom-6 forward penalty killing and defensive depth as a right-hand shot to replace Kasperi down there, with Gambrell as a decent but experienced prospect with upside who could flourish with a change in scenery. Plus some cap relief for TOR with the retentions.

Kapanen provides that skilled middle-six forward depth on the right-side that SJ desperately needs in its lineup. But besides his value right now to the team, which he brings here, he's also young and so even if the Sharks end up rebuilding(ish), he's an asset for that ends as well, and the 4th rounder from Vegas (with TOR retaining its own 4th) is a good piece that SJ needs in this upcoming deep draft without its own 4th (or 1st...).

I like it. Maybe a little better prospect than Gambrell but looks like a good deal. All the points make sense. Only thing is Dillion is left handed shot and they already have muzzin, Reilly, Dermott (can play on opposite side). Idk if they would want him bc of that but if they would that deal is pretty fair

Another point I forgot to mention is that Muzzin's now out with an injured foot on defense, and week to week, so there's some reinforcements there too. Even with Muzzin in, TOR's been getting scored on a lot this season. But that's a fair point... having said that, Dillon did play on his off side on the right for a while in Dallas, maybe that's an option.

Sorry but felt I need to chime in here and be the voice of reason. Toronto has zero interest in any of these players.

Zero interest sounds perfectly reasonable considering TOR's given up 14 goals in its last three games and has allowed the 4th most goals in the entire league this year, and now has Muzzin out likely a few weeks too.

A defensive top-4 dman and excellent defensive forward and PKer wouldn't provide any help there, I apologize I don't know what I was thinking there and what came over me.

No, if I said less than zero, that would be hyperbole. This is just simple logic.

TML had no interest in Karlsson given Dubas's love of certain stats.

It's simple logic that Toronto has zero interest in a top 4 defenseman that can play the right side?

And ceci is a top pairing Dman who can play centre.

We have Barrie and Holl on the right and Rielly and Dermott on the left till muzzin returns.

We are not panic trading a decent asset for a rental on spare part rentals.
