Flames - Leafs blockbuster

Created by: HollywoodHudon
Team: 2021-22 Calgary Flames
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 10, 2021
Published: Sep. 10, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
CGY has a solid/spoken for RD but needs a top tier offensive minded LD to play ahead of Hanafin and be paired with Tanev.
TOR has RW locked up for the year with Marner/Nylander/Kase and Spezza slotting in very nicely, but needs a top tier LW to play with Mathews+Marner/Nylander or Tavares+Marner/Nylander (however the line 1 and line 2 duos get deployed this year)

Both Rielly and Gaudreau fill the needs for the respective acquiring teams and both are on expiring contracts with pending UFA statuses.

CGY needs a #3C and Kerfoot fits the bill perfectly.

Leafs need cap space, so take Ritchie and a couple picks (2022 2nd whick is sure to be a late 2nd (FLA) and a 2023 7th)

Both teams again fill needs they have. Deal makes total sense form both sides AND... these teams do have a bit of a history for making blockbusters with eachother! :) (The Gilmour + Phaneuf trades people!!!)

Lindholm plays centre buddy. Calgary are stacked in the middle with him, Monahan and Backlund...

Flames actually don't need a 3c. We have Backlund

Doesn’t Calgary have Backlund there?
And they have some younger center options in pipeline.

All guys in the system now that I would give a shot at C before bringing in Kerfoot to play behind Lindholm, Monahan, Backlund

ive seen this before an i still don't understand the insinuation that Morgan Reilly gets you Johnny Gaudreau+.

Gaudreau is the best player in this trade. Kerfoot as you mentioned is a cap dump. If Toronto wants to add gaudreau it will be them adding picks not Calgary.

Rielly is a top 5 OFD, Kerfoot is a very effective player and not a cap dump

If Lindholm is at center - who is playing right wing on the top line? Lewis? Some prospect I have never heard of? come on.

ok, then who plays 2nd line RW? Cmon now. Backlund is a sufficient #2C especially when the drop down to 3C is NOT a huge when when Kerfoot is plugged in there.
