@Caniac2000 will rip this thread apart

Replying just so I can watch it happen.

For the record, getting Jarvis back plus a year of Pesce is a good return if they don't want to pay Nylander in the 9-10 mill range. Essentially, you're trading a year of Nylander for a year of Pesce and getting Jarvis in there as well. From Carolina's perspective, this is ALL contingent upon re-signing Nylander. If they can do it, this should be something the strongly consider.

agreed

hes gonna send a bar graph

any minute now

If they can resign Nylander to something that allows everybody to resigned then I'd take this deal

Yup. BUT and this is not a bias against the Leafs, his track record is so scary for contracts that it will almost have to be a sign and trade type of thing to get any deal like this done. No one in the cap era has held out for as long as he did. It's why I don't want him near the Avs and why I understand a trade is unlikely to happen.

So why would the Canes even consider this? Say want you want about the Pesce-Nylander swap, but adding Jarvis is overkill. If the Leafs really wanted Jarvis, I guess they never should have dumped Marleau.

Value is there but I don’t like the main piece coming back being a defender

In the short-term, it's Pesce. In the long-term, the main piece is Jarvis.

Jarvis is only 21 he's only going to get better and he's played well in the playoffs in a substantial role already.
Plus he's an RFA, so he'd be under team control for a while.
