Leafs fan 50 cents:
Detroit deal: zero reason for Yzerman to move Rasmussen. Young, top 9 upside with a bit of size. Järnkrök simply isn't even close. IF Yzerman is going to entertain an offer here, it may start with a Robertson, meaning a larger deal to male it work. Even then, I question Stevie's motivation.
Winnipeg:
Barron looks like a very legit top 9 forward, again with some size. But the package here is crap. Sure Abruzesse has top 9 potential, Anderson maybe a 4th line guy. But there is nothing here to have Chevy think. Hell, I am not sure this is even a fit for these two teams, as if I am Chevy, Barron = Kerfoot, and that would be on an extension for sure. Further, if that is the case, Barron is simply a far cheaper option so why do it?
Listen, I see what your doing and appreciate the effort. But if you are going to land these guys, you have to make a GM think at least. For me, as a LEAFS fan, I see how they say no.
