Different take on the Leafs D situation

Created by: MMXD
Team: 2020-21 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 4, 2020
Published: Apr. 4, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
You never see a trade where the leafs go after Hjalmarsson, however he is still a solid defensive defenseman that could be ran with Rielly.

Adam Brooks, IMO, can make the roster next season (he can probably swap places with spezza and gauthier through the season).

    Thus why I stated add as you wish. I wasn’t going all in with picks or prospects, just a basis of what it would look like. Leafs are trying to clear out some space, while also getting a solid defensive oriented player to play with Rielly.

    I see him as a decent fit for the upcoming season, but he will have to waive his No Move Clause. He'll be a 34 year old UFA next year, so not sure where he'll fit in Dubas's long term plans. Would want to move Kerfoot, Johnsson, Dermott, etc. for a D who will become part of the teams core and not just a one year rental.

    Yeah I tested that one out, but really the best d that will fit the bill would be Manson and trying to get him would be a lot more to offer. Hopefully the leafs pull something off though

    sadly brooks is barely NHL ready. If toronto wanted to give him a chance he could play 4th line center but he still has some developing to do.

    Itd be nice if they had an extra 5M in cap space.

    That’s why I said you can really swap him around with Spezza and Gauthier. Don’t need to keep the lines

    spezza is to slow to be on our third line and gautier oh god no. Engvall is another story and keefe may give it a try as through most of his time with the marlies he was the 1st line center. But still if toronto wants a new 3c trading for Jost who colorado fans are starting to dislike or wallmark could work

    I do like the sound of Wallmark 👀 Jost would be a pricier option I feel, I’ve seen predictions of around 4mill, which now defeats the purpose since Kerfoot is cheaper than that. The main issue is there’s no cap space to really move pieces out to fit a proper 3C in
