Jones or Parakyo

Created by: Leafsfaninvancity
Team: 2022-23 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 27, 2021
Published: Apr. 28, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Klingberg, Letang, Nurse, Ekholm, Pulock are also all potentially available in 2022, but I think it will come down to Parakyo or Jones if Leafs management have the choice. I like Jones because he's younger, but there's not too much of a difference between the two in terms of the way they play the game, size, ice time, and sitautions used.. Or should the Leafs just try and sign a guy like Martinez to play with Sandin on the bottom pair in 2021? Or if Sandin emerges as a top offensive guy is Rielly a guy you let go which I think is really hard to imagine and go after a Parakyo and a Jones? I don't have Brodie, but would rather have Jones for the money, and Holl is still really cheap for what he does. Or should the Leafs not do anything and just keep their d core the way it is and plug in youngsters like Sandin and Liljegren? If Vancouver is bad next year and the pick is a lottery that 1st rounder is moved to next year.

Brodie.

Don't trade him to try to get another guy. Brodie's been the perfect fit on this team and is incredible defensively. But if they're looking for another d-man, I wouldn't spend the assets to get Jones or Parayko just to have them play bottom pair.

But also funny that you think Parayko and Jones are similar in terms of play style. Jones is a defensive liability and Parayko is a beats defensively. If I had to choose, I'd take Parayko in a heart beat.

Edit: Also Parayko is only 7 months older than Jones. That wouldn't really be a factor.

Just keep Brodie. Parakyo is almost certainly going to re-sign in St Louis and Jones is grossly overrated and already getting exposed.

im not sure about Jones, he has not been good this year and if were gonna be paying him a good chunk of change so to speak we need consistency.

Pulock and Ekholm to me would be the better fit as they both have better defensive numbers.

I do like Ekholm but I really don't see Rielly walking. He's the longest serving Leaf on the team and like Hyman would try to do everything to stay.

I mean Blue Jackets haven't been good at all, it certainly affects Jones, he could probably get back to form with a great regular season team like the Leafs. I don't think NYI will make Pulock available and Ekholm is LD, Leafs have Rielly-Muzzin (and Sandin) on the left side.

Ekholm actually can play both sides, dont remember what year it was but he played RD for a while with the preds and actually did really well there. Was hoping somehow Dubas could have got him at the deadline but Nashville was in a playoff position and even beforehand the asking price was insane

For 6 x $7,500,000 Seth Jone's is staying Columbus. Try more like 7 x $8,500,000 to 7 x $9,000,000 to lock up Seth Jones. He'll get close to Hamilton and Pietrangelo money.

So funny how fans just can't see how ridiculously unfair their offers are. Brodie was UFA last yr and the Canucks didn't make him an offer. Now they are going to give up 2 high picks haha.

Engvall is a horrible center and has been pretty bad. Play Brooks as you 3C instead of playing him on the wing, where Engvall should be if he is in the lineup at all

how bout

Sandin - Parayko
Muzzin - Brodie
Dermott - Holl

Liljegren ends up traded because there isn't space. And yes I think by the time Rielly's contract is up Sandin will be a top 4 D capable of taking Rielly's place.

Parayko is not going to be available in free agency. His extension will be locked in before then.
