Habs say Dvorak, Byron, Drouin and Allen are joining Habs in Van for no -contact practice. Carey Price resumed skating yesterday and was on the ice again today.
Habs are gonna be dangerous!

Would need renention on Gio and Rackell (or holtby) but that sounds like a decent deadline. Would prefer non rentals but I wouldn't be mad if that's who they got.

I just don't trust a LW of
Bunting
Mikheyev

Imo leafs need a proven top 6 LW, who is good defensively.

All could have retention if needed.

Giordano for 2nd + villneuvle
Rakell for 1st + depth player
Holtby for 2nd + 4th.

No major prospects given up.

Bunting honestly has been fine. He is basically the second coming of Hyman minus the PKing. Mikheyev is more of a defensive specialist who can provide offense. He is on the third line with Kampf and Kase for a reason. If Robertson does more of what he did tonight hes probs gonna be our new top 6 wing going forward.

STANLEY is won MOSTLY by having a solid group lead by a combo of elite 1C+1D+1G - "Strong up the Middle"
PIT - Sid/Letang/Fleury
CHI - Toews/Keith/Crawford
BOS - Bergy/Chara/Thomas
LA - Kopi/Doughty/Quick
TBL - Stammer/Hedman/Vasi.......

Think TML have 2 of 3...
AM/Morgan R/ ? Campbell ?

Like heck Florida sometimes got 4th liners with Barkov and they have been fine lul.

I agree... just if i was a leafs fan, I'd prefer a proven top 6 player, nothing against Mikheyev or Robertson. Wouldn't you like:

Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Miller / Rakell - Tavares - Nylander
Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Kase
Robertson - Kampf - Spezza

Reilly- Brodie
Giordano / other defenseman - Holl
Sandin - Lybushkin

Holtby / other goalie - Campbell

We'd be good, but not playoff good. Losing Danault and Weber was a kick in the heart. No way we get past the first round without those two

Sub out C for RW, and the Red Wings might have something good cookin...

Raymond-Seider-Nedeljkovic

Hell, they have Cossa and Edvinsson as well. They just need to start drafting forwards

Montreal will be back next year

Not good enough imo.
Raymond = 2nd line on contender
Seider = 2nd pair on contender
Nedeljkovic = tandem goalie

??
What're you trying to say?

Preds beating the Sharks 7-0

raymond and seider are both very close to PPG
ned i can probably agree on

Lark-Seid-Ned...

But that's yet to be determined for DET; like the Leafs hopes...
As opposed to the Cup winners shown above ^ ^ ^

Where was this sympathy when I was in Toronto?🧐#LeafsForever https://t.co/woNI5NhdnA

Because, mr raycroft, you didn’t take the boys to red lobster

Honestly a trade where Kerfoot goes to Seattle and Gio goes to Toronto seems like an intriguing possibility

Anyone wanna help piece it together

One thing (No 1st or Top prospect for rentals - What Dubas said and not me)

Rn I got

Kerfoot + Voit + Hirovinen + 2022 2nd + 2023 4th with conditions to become a 2nd but dont think thats enough for Gio and Donato

That's easily enough just for Gio I think but not sure how much value Donato has.

I don't see kerfoot getting traded till the offseason, he's the perfect 3rd line center, and tbh, most of Seattle's roster is 3C lul.
I'm thinking Giordano for 2nd + villneuvle + hirvonen is that too much?

Throw another fish!

Kind of a quantity > quality return but for a franchise with a dozen non-NHL players between its farm team and reserve list, that shouldn't matter a whole lot.

Price SHOULD be healthy and they look like an actual NHL team under St. Louis

No he's not the perfect 3rd line centre lol. He can play centre in a pinch but he's a lot better on the wing. That said, I do agree kerfoot is more likely to be traded in the offseason.

East Standings:
BOS breathing down the TML necks ()!!!

mmm I disagree I think its fair

For one if we look at what Muzzin went for

1st + 2 B level prospects (1.5 years or term)

In my case Im giving Seattle for 4 months of Gio

2022 2nd
2023 4th with conditions to become a 2nd
Kerfoot (38 points) useful top 9 player who Francis wanted at the expansion draft before McCann came along
Voit (58 points in 46 OHL games easily a late 1st rounder in a re-draft)
and Hirovinen (12 goals 3 assists in 11 International Juniors Tournament)

Or in other words

2 2nds (If all goes well) + Useable top 9 player + 2 B level prospects for 4 months of Gio and Donato

Thats a lot right there
