Description

I saw this in a mock trade and thought it'd be fun. Okay, I know Caps fans and Leafs fans will both be yelling at me for this, but it doesn't seem toooo far off on value and I thought it'd make for a fun armchair GM. Oh, and I don't love solving problems in free agency, but I just want to see Forsberg as a Cap lmao.

Don’t think the Sabres do it
You’re asking for a bit too much

Fucale is an AHL lifer, with no value
We’ll take him off your hands if u want, but we wouldn’t give u anything for him

Maybe the Sabres would be interested in Vanecek- maybe
I don’t think we’d value him at more than a 2nd round pick though
So I’d say that either Portillo comes out of the deal (and you can keep your 4th),
or that 2nd round pick has to be dropped to (at least) a 3rd to keep Portillo in the deal

Just my opinion though

I would be perfectly fine with that as a Flames fan. Would replace Lucic well

No. Nylander is younger and is a ppg.

Leafs aren't shopping Nylander, but if they were, Wilson + a pick and/or prospect would be a good return.

That sounds good! I'm gonna make an edit to drop the second and fourth to a third and a fifth.

Wilson is cheaper and is a much more well-rounded player.

There's a reason it's only ever Leafs fans proposing Wilson for Nylander deals. The two things the Caps need most from their forwards are speed and defense, so trading Wilson is trading from a position of weakness (not the mention trading their consensus future captain). Nylander's also a terrible fit on the Caps because in the Caps PP scheme, the only spot he fits in is the one Ovie already occupies, so he wouldn't get first unit PP time in DC. Nylander wouldn't be a PPG player in DC getting the ~30 seconds at the end of each PP that Ovie finally leaves the ice for. Wilson for Nylander doesn't work at all from a Caps perspective, and the few Caps fans on this site say as much every time it pops up, but that doesn't stop Leafs fans from posting it multiple times every day.

Would take a gross overpay to trade Wilson. Nylander may be the better offensive player but I guarantee Wilson has more value in the eyes of the GMs. I think the value is way off and toronto would need to add picks/prospect. Wilson and a first for Nylander is a joke.
