i can assure you that carlo is better than holl... lol... by miles

carlo would slot well with muzzin. he's a strong defensive guy... and he has a variety of uses. Also carries a good cap hit. But at the same time, he is younger than many people think and his game improves drastically year over year. This guy has top pair upside easily. Right now he's a strong top 4 guy.


Based off what?

Lmao are you kidding me ? Carlo is one of the best defenders in the league like Brodin he’s criminally underrated


I....uh.... I mean the offer isnt good or anything and Carlo's a decent defender but one of the best defenders in the league? Yikes, you might wanna walk back on that a bit.

You're right to emphasize Keefe's system.

Carlo would be the right player in a more conservative defense system, a style that doesn't allow so many chances off the rush. In the Leafs world, his value would diminish. You need ultra fast skaters that can move the puck real quick.

I think when people say "we need Carlo", in reality they see our defensive system as shaky, and don't believe in it yet (which I can understand). But adding Carlo won't magically change things if the system stays the same.


Exactly. It's the same thing when people say the Leafs need Scott Mayfield. There are players out there that would fit into the leafs system and bring something the leafs currently dont have. Radko Gudas has fantastic underlying numbers as a #5 throughout his career. Hes crazy but hes a good puck mover, can defend the rush and is good at suppressing chances. Cernak is also pretty good but a bit overrated because hes on TB

I mean, he's got a better CF% xGF%, better expected goals for and against and spends more time against elite comp. But enough about Holl

Far better zone entry, zone exit and zone entry denial numbers. He also doesnt play with Krug who is very good. Holl is on a better contract too

yeah, i mean, i'd like to have Carlo too, but his valuation here by some people really needs perspective. Nylander, ha.

I said the truth so I'm a homer?


this is as far frrom the truth you can get... holl is a 7th D. He's overrated just as much as all the other leafs depth guys

It's kinda funny that with all the numbers that back it up that Carlo is, at least, arguably close to Carlo it's that Holl is over rated, not that Carlo is.

You're probably trolling, or you just haven't followed games this season.

To be fair, Holl only had half a season to show his full potential. Yet, the type of role he played last season is way more difficult, for a team that isn't exactly reliable in their zone.

Is Holl second half of 2019-2020 as good as Carlo? Of course he is. He was better. With numbers to prove it.

Was Holl 2019-2020 just a fluke, or will he really be a successful late bloomer? That's probably the question you should have been asking.

his first half of the year was not impressive. 2nd year under keefe, yeah it was good... but I'm not convinced he is THAT good. I wouldn't want him in my top 4. When he only has 30 good games compared to carlo who has been consistently better for longer, then you gotta look beyond the short term. Carlo is clearly the more long-term better player. Ignore the 2nd half of this year, and there's not even a close debate, and 30 games is not anything to transform value this significantly.

"Gotta use my 2-for-1 card for $500 Alex"

Leafs have frankly nothing to offer or compare to a 23yr old, 6'5", 212 lb, 37th pick, RS-RD, shutdown guy, whom has yet to pay 300 NHL games and is on a sweet US$2.85M RFA deal (period).

Hes more of a number 5 who plays with krug. He'd look brutal in Keefes system. Hes bad in transition and has zero offensive upside. Hes good defensively but I believe quite a bit of that is a result of the Bruins low event system. The bruins are also better defensively when hes off the ice then when hes on


Quoting: Jack_
Brodin is a fantastic defender. Carlo isnt. There isnt anything that points towards him being close to the best defensive defenseman in the nhl. Hes probably outside the top 30


Quoting: Jack_
Lol muzzin is 10 times better then carlo. Holl is probably pretty close as well. Carlo is also bad at defending the rush and has brutal gap control. If I'm paying for a defensively defenseman teams will except someone who can defend off the rush (brodin is statistically the best in the league at doing so), being able to move the puck up the ice with control and limit chances against. Carlo limits chances against but hes not fantastic. Someone like Weegar is far better then carlo in every way


Quoting: leaflet
Similar to Holl. Johnsson or Kerfoot are probably close in value.

what are you talking about "he's not that great"

sure the bruins want more than his ask to trade him, but he is already a top 4 defenseman on a good contract

Holy moly.

“Carlo is the guy we need” continues to give Boston nothing worth it lol


LOL i was gonna comment saying how bad this was, but clearly everyone here (even the nonbruins fans) agree
Im not here to suck Carlo off, but my god: this trade is so inconsiderate of the bruins needs, and the value is horrendous
