Just imagine this with Matthews and Marner


Long term to many roadblocks. It's doable but tricky

Honestly Garland is my choice rn

Banks must be bugged

Great read by Scott Wheeler on the newest member of the Leafs. Timmins is a very enigmatic get, as I haven't been able to pin down a decent rundown of what Timmins brings to the table. If he can stay healthy, this could genuinely be one of Dubas' best trades. From what I can tell, Timmins could be another Liljegren. I also completely forgot just how good he was at the World Juniors just a few years ago, with him even being named one of Canada’s top three players of the tournament. The other two players: Cale Makar and Drake Batherson

Would not surprise me if like Kase we get the most out of Timmins. Our staff have kept some injury prone guys healthy for a while (Ennis and Kase).

If we can get 40-50 games out of him and he puts up some points and continues to grow and gain confidence im good. Dman dont peak till 28 so who knows like Holl maybe he works his way into top 4 and thrives. Lets see.

As Colorado fans told me good player but the injuries held him back from achieving higher greatness which is true. Like I feel if he didnt get concussed or hurt he would probs still be with Avs and Girard would have got traded.

Was thinking this but with Duclair close and florida being over I wonder if Toronto could swing a cheap trade to bring him over

As I dont think Florida wants to spend its last remaining assets to dump Hornqvist.

Supposedly Bennett is another guy that Florida is looking at moving

Duclair to me makes the most sense as even if he goes they got other wings. Heck I feel White was brought in to be the cheaper replacement

If they moved Bennett or Reinhardt I would be pretty surprised. Unless Zito wants to try and replenish assets to use at the TDL but to me why weaken the team just to try and go spending again makes 0 sense.

Funny thing and good thing I deleted it. Before the offseason I made a team with Namestnikov as a FA signing

After seeing him in Tampa man bullet dodged as he looks worse than Kerfoot.

Id be very happy if we got Duclair. He's got term, is making less than Kerfoot, and can pot you 20 - 30 goals. A top 6 that looks like this could be fun:

Bunting - Matthews - Nylander
Duclair - Tavares - Marner

For the game against the Wild I am fine with this due to that team acquiring a certain someone (Reaves)

As lets be honest u need Simmonds to prevent this guy from just having his way with the team. Especially now that hes on a new team and needs to impress

@LeafsFanForSomeReason reaction to hearing Bennett in a trade rumour

Lol I actually haven’t heard that Bennett was, I’d be surprised if he was. Fits into how FLA likes to play. I’d be all over that IF he was tho, Matthews Tavares Bennett down the middle 🤤

I would be very interested to see if Bennet is for real and not just a product of Florida. No idea if that means I want him in the leafs

It was in this article, but looking back on it now it seems like Seravalli may have just been talking about any forward making over 3 mil with positive value to help them recoup some assets. Duclair seems like the most likely guy Florida is looking to move, but I suppose if the price is right they will listen in on Bennett.

I’ve always wanted a Bennett/Gourde type player on this roster ever since Kadri left.

I don't think he's a product of Florida in the sense that he couldn't do well elsewhere, I think they just brought it out of him. Even in Calgary where he was very mishandled, you could see that he was bursting at the seams with potential to be better than was reflected. One of the tougher guys in the league pound for pound, too. I wanted him BADLY.

LOL tears of joy tears of joy

I've literally never wanted the Leafs to acquire a player (within the realm of reason) more than I wanted Bennett when his days in Calgary were numbered.

Last time Bennett was connected to Toronto was the Kadri stuff

Kadri for Bennett + Brodie I believe

I believe it was one of Jankowski or Bennett and Brodie

In general package was all over the place but still would have probs been better for us long term in the sense Brodie would have been better fit then Barrie and one of those guys would have made a fine 3c or lw

Yah it probably would have been a slightly better package. And since we would have gotten Brodie it would make the Kadri trade look MILES better. But oh well.
