Buch isn't available. As simple as that

Even though it seems unlikely STL will be competitive for the rest of his contract, it’s not gonna happen. He’s such a great player and a breath of positivity

Trading Holl for Bortozzo makes the Leafs worst this season on defence. Yea the Leafs would be better this year, but giving up a 1st and Knies, and the hurting the cap for next season, means Bunting isn't signed.

Why do Leafs fans have such a hard on for Bunting lol, if getting Buchnevich means Bunting has to go then who cares.

I’m not trying to call you crazy but if you think that bunting and Buchnevich are even remotely similar in value then I could consider it, no offense.

One dude is making less than a mil and 27. The other dude is the best all around forward on his team.

One dude is a pending ufa, the other dude has years of control.

I bet if you went and held a gun to Doug Armstrong’s head and said trade buch for bunting he’d let you pull the trigger and die out of dignity alone. If I were doug Armstrong I’d literally let you execute me before my name was on that trade for the world to see. Stop taking out your trash for treasure.

Austin matthews for Ivan barbashev straight up.

give engvall and a second that should do it

Who cares about Bunting lol

Is it worth the premium to pay for player who will score maybe 25 points a season more and who is on IR now.

Did you mean to respond to my post lol? Im pretty sure I said who cares if the Leafs lose Bunting if they get Buchnevich. I dont know why you're coming at me with that

Absolutely. Bunting will want around 5m next year and that’s too much for me. The difference between the 2 is Buch is vastly outperforming his contract which would allow us to run 3 deep lines when necessary. Dubas can find more bargain bin types, I’ve never been worried about that.
