Are you telling me the difference between Fiala and Nylander is a 7th defenseman?, and a second? Thats a terrible trade, no any day

Overpay for Nylander. For a 2C, that package would be insane. I'd do it if you dropped Addison, though.

I’m saying the Difference between Nylander is a 21 y/o RHD that’s lighting up the AHL & a 2nd/3rd yes probably somewhere in that area

You clearly have no idea who Calen Addison is!

I like Addison quite a bit, but in this ACGM you're using him as a 7th defenseman. Fiala has no term, and is going to cost a fortune on his next contract. Nylander is the better player, on the better contract.

IF Nylander can be a top 6 center, this is a no-brainer! If he is a wing, it’s an overpay…even with the cost certainty he comes with.

Incorrect, I really like Calen Addison, but in this ACGM he is being used as the 7th defenseman. Hes not even being played in the AHL

Haha, who exactly do you think Nylander is? Some bum? He has been insane for us for a while and is on a stellar contract.

Value in a trade is not at this single moment in time Addison realistically is a Top 4 RHD in 1-2 Years. KF is probably gonna come in the 6.25/7m Range on a longer term 4-5 year deal come the summer. In my opinion small adjustments to picks and I think this works great for both teams

While you have no idea who Addison is? Nylander is great, but if he is brought to play the role Fiala already plays, it's bad asset management to throw a blue-chip prospect plus a pick away.

I know who Calen Addison is. but in this ACGM he is being played as the seventh defenseman. Use your head once in a while.

Nylander brought in to Play 2C, he’s played C with TOR with JT out & Played it in Junior

What does “this ACGM” have to do with evaluating this trade???

Niemela > Addison, Nylander > Fiala. Still turning this trade down, bad for the Leafs. Trading Nylander to fill a non-issue is a bad idea

He is a 7th D because the creator was probably lazy. It doesn't remove the fact Addison is a top50 prospect and has serious upside.

I doubt he'd be able to play 2C. And even if he was, it would be an overpay. This is like giving away 3 1st round picks, and that should almost get a 1C.

I don’t think this is a “non-issue” just asset management you are getting someone to fill the same role at aprox 80%??? The same capacity does not cripple your team by any means and you get futures back ontop to use for future rentals?

The Leafs shouldnt trade Nylander to fill a non-issue. This trade makes us worse in the now. Niemela is better than Addison, and Nylander is better than Fiala. This makes the Leafs worse in the present and hurts us in the future, as we are getting rid of a fantastic winger on a steal contract for an RHD that wont play over Liljegren and Niemela

But the Leafs are trying to compete for a cup. This trade makes so little sense. We are getting the worse player for a future asset that wont play over Niemela or Liljegren? Huge no

Explain to me why a team trying to compete trades one of our core pieces for a worse forward and a future asset? We are trying to win now

That isn't a bad trade for Nylander. It just fills no needs for either of the parties, which explains why fans of both of those teams are so heated in these comments
