Description
MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH AT THE END TOO NO CAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look realistically *INCLUDING ME, no one on here will ever guess any leafs things right, or anyteam to be fair, and are just randomly predicting what could happen and tbh FROM MY VIEW I just love doing these even though I MOSTLY WILL NEVER GUESS WHAT COULD HAPPEN and just doing this because I love hockey and just creating random teams with players and ideas surrounding what I think the teams should look like with certain players bring to the table and what those each specific players brings even though the trades are gonna be off in really specific detail so get YO POPCORN READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You need those 2-way guys in the playoffs in order to win. (LIST COULD GO ON IF WE"RE TALKING IN PERSON TBH!!!)

THE MITCH TRADE: Like I said I KNOW I WILL BE WAY OFF AND EVERYTHING and I'm just on here having fun. NOW THE REASONING I did Vegas. THEY like to be in on big names and always figures out the cap but idk if they ever will or can do this like none of us if we're being fair. UNPREDICTABLE STUFF HAPPENS LOL!!!!
But with this type of package in MY OPINION you get DEPTH, Smart players who knows what to do to win and the little things I explained in the 2nd PARAGRAPH!! I went for depth over a 1-for-1 or 2-for-1 type package. NOW TO WHAT EACH PERSON BRINGS:

NIC ROY- super underrated in the small things as I described with those Yanni-type dudes and is a switchable centre in terms of FO" S for 2nd line with Gourde and type of style of play ON THIS TEAM, MY OPINION AND ILL KEEP REINSTATING THAT!!

ZACH WHITECLOUD- 5 points IDC ABT THAT!, but what I do care abt is he is a +11, STRONG DEFENSIVE PLAYER and can box out the crease at 6'2 210 pounder,

PAUL COTTER is still only 23 but in 55 reg season games threw 157 hits can develop into a Barbashev type player who also hits and scored some goals in key playoff times and can take away the puck which he shows he does in the reg. season at least,

Rielly Smith would be a perfect winger next to Yanni or Roy and can come up w some clutch goals which he's done so far in these playoffs.

ONE REALLY UNDERRATED THING LEAFS DON'T DO IN THE PLAYOFFS IS EVER SHOW THEY'RE MAD WITH THEMSELVES LIKE ON THE BENCH AND JUST PLAY WITH JUST OVERALL MORE INTENSITY AND LIKE JUST GROW A PAIR HONESTLY. YOU LOOK AT THE teams and star players closely AND SHOWED UP WHEN MATTERED MOST!!!! AND WILL OBVI JUST NAME SOME CROSBY and NATEMAC OBVI LOL bc they have the same mentality basically BC of their friendship etc HAHA, OVI- was destroying people too, ALL OF TAMPA TEAMS LOL, MAKAR had 29 points which is crazy etc ya GET MY POINT LOL!

IM HIGH on DAAAA WEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDD (LOVE MY BOY STEPHEN A SMITH HAHAHAHA) ACTUALLY AND I LOVE IT EVERYTIMEEEEEEE I TAKE A RIPPERRRRRRR YEEEEEEEWWWWW LOVE YAAAAAAA SPREAD POSITIVITY AND LOVE! DON'T EVER GET DOWN ON YOURSELVES! WHEN YOU FALL, GET BACK UP! WE ONLY HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF DAYS SO LOVE YASELVES, BLESS YOURSELVES, AND LOVE YA FAMILY!! PEACE AND LOVE YALL

Additional Details:
Martinez just there for cap reasons and will be flipped to anyteam and the reason why I can see Vegas is bc they always seem to be in the mix of all big names
3.
TOR
  1. 2023 2nd round pick (NJD)
  2. 2025 3rd round pick (NJD)
Additional Details:
Doesn't have to be with NJD but I see multiple needs on defense with potentially Graves and Severson leaving. Martinez would be a great partner for Hughes as he brings potentially 3 cups and crap ton of experience and maybe a guy who will let Hughes use his creativity and a guy who could help his be better on the decisive side too

Dude, you may think no one can ever predict what any team will do (which is not true btw), but I can guarantee you that lots of people can tell you what teams are NOT going to do. You could just listen to them sometimes instead of trying to make a shield from constructive criticism.

If Kekkäläinen declines that Peeke deal on grounds that they have to many wingers already it'd be good cause to fire him.

Easy decline by Vegas. We trade all that for what? 2 million in cap relief? Lol.

Move Martinez if you want the relief. Getting rid of an entire line plus Whitecloud and a first? No thanks

Hey man i like making teams too and i agree none of us know whats going to happen and are probably always going to be wrong but nothing worse then some guy commenting *insert team* wouldnt do that trade because this reason. Like your just a fan you dont know what your team would or wouldnt do! I hate all the hate towards other peoples ideas. for example look at the post above mine *easy no from Vegas* well thats just your opinion lol what if they accepted then your comment would look dumb.

Trading Marner for a bunch of depth is an awesome way to lose the trade. If the Tkachuk trade from last season has shown us anything, it's that you win the trade by getting the best player. That trade doesn't make Toronto better.

I don't want to comment on the other stuff since other people have, but it just seems ridiculous to be flipping so many players and first round picks around. There's literally no reason to do any of that.

NJ doesn't need any D, The've got 2 of the top 3 Defensive prospects in hockey ready make the jump next season and a backlog of solid Top 4/Top 6 defensive prospects who can draw in too. If you want to target a trade at NJ, they need depth muscle or a middle 6 heavy winger who can forecheck, that's all the team needs at this point between roster players and highly skilled prospects.
