    Quoting: ConnorMcHellebucyk



    It’s pretty good, I’m not too sure on how good that Lajoie guy is though. I would definitely like to see a guy like Hoffman who can score goals, and skate fast with McDavid.

    Looks great. But I am buying out Neal. He on 5 on 5 play is just terrible.

    That's a terrible trade for Toronto. Giving up a fast top 6 forward one the penalty kill for a one way unreliable top 4 d man. And all we get is a third with him?
    Dubas rejects in a heartbeat no way your getting Kappy for than package

    If Kappy was a top 6 forward, he would be playing in the top 6. Nylander is a top 6 forward, Marner is a top 6 forward. Also isnt Larsson one of the best shut down D in the league for the past 36 games? Watch him for a change instead of going off his last year health and fathers death stats.

    AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHa are you stupid. Marner and nylander are elite. not top 6 if you didin't know. Larsson is a 1 way defenseman. Dude has just been ok at defense. Someone like Kris Russel or Darnell Nurse has been way better. And they can play a bit of offense too.
    You think a 1 way defenseman is worth a fast top 6 defenseman who even plays on the pk?

    Ahahhahahahahah Larsson has been much much better than Nurse and Russell, no comparison. Look at the stats. In fact Russel isnt even good enough to play on the 3rd line. Oiler PK is 2nd best in the league. Kappy is not needed for that. You know it is totally fine if you dont want that package, but Kappy (who I love) is still nto ahead of Hoffman or Yamamoto, so back to the 3rd line. If Toronto does not change the way they are structured, they will always be average with their high octane forwards. They need 3 shut down D, one on each line with their puck moving D, until you actually accept that, you will never win the cup. Thats a fact. Its like the Oilers, until they get help for McDavid, they will never win the cup either.

    AHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    Thanks for an nhl 20 offer but we don't need a bottem pairing defenseman. 4mil is pretty expensive too. Your offer is actually worse than what the ai in nhl 20 would offer.
    I'm sorry you don't know Toronto hockey but we need 1 top 4 good defensive defenseman. Someone who is actually good. Good try but no

    Don't bother. He's a brainwashed homer.
