You're already well out of the Barbashev race with that offer.

Oh? and how many 1st round picks would get the deal done for you?

You would have to put Marner on the 2nd line because JT is a below average skater and Domi doesn't think defense.

Holl shouldn't be in the top 6 going into the playoffs but i know he will be because Keef loves him for some reason, definitely can't be on the top pair i would rather do,

Rielly - Brodie
Mccabe - lilly
Gio - Sandin

Have you watched the Leafs at all this year? JT is moving pretty well, and has been stroing in his own end. Would be Marner on the 2nd and Nylander on the 1st, forgot to make that swap

I see Rielly/Holl being deployed in primarily offensive zone starts while McCabe/Brodie would be the shutdown pair. I personally think Sandin is too small for the playoffs, and the Gio/Lilly pair could take secondary shutdown mins

Holl makes me worried every time he is on the ice, some days he is fine but there are times where his brain just goes AFK, i would rather spend more so he could be the 7th guy. Sandin may be smaller but he has the most Hits this season on the team

Cute straw man. It has been widely reported that many teams are after him and that the price is roughly a 23 2nd and/or a prospect of similar level. None of this is a secret. Everyone knows this. The fact that you could not even offer Ottawa's 23 3rd puts this way out of range. Half the league will lap that offer. Obviously.

If JT is in the o-zone in transition he can't catch anyone from behind. JT is good in his own end when he's already there but backchecking he doesn't catch most players in the league. Question is watching the games doesn't mean you know what's going on. I haven't missed a minute.

Since Arizona still owns the option of taking Toronto's 3 rd round pick in this year's draft, you have offered exactly zero return for Barbashev. I would have to agree with Mukumboi on this one, St Louis is not accepting this offer even if no other team calls with a trade proposal.
