Small Changes

Description
I’ve liked the way the team has been playing recently and I believe this small change is all that’s needed to give us a better chance this year, without giving up to many assets.

The trade for Larsson gives us two years at an affordable cap hit plus a later draft pick. I’m not the biggest fan of Robertson especially now that other guys have stepped up and are contributing more than him.

The trade with Jones and New Jersey is what I believe a team looking for goaltending help, at a more than affordable cap hit would pay, this trade doesn’t necessarily have to be with New Jersey though and could be any other team looking for the same thing, I just feel the Leafs should cash in on at least one asset from this season plus it frees up some cap space for Larsson.

Could take a chance sending Lagesson down but in this case I’ve sent Reaves, he’s been good recently so it’s a coin flip between them.

Would like to hear thoughts and what you would do differently.

Unless we have an injury, it doesn’t sound like Devils GM is looking for smaller goalie move. Maybe that changes if we strike out on Saros, Gibson or Markstrom.

Like I mentioned in the description I could easily see this being another team, NJD was just the one I picked to get Jones out for a pick.

I think we need to wait to see how we play against top teams who are healthy. Our defence is not good enough to play a team like Colorado for 7 games.

Why do so many think the Leafs have to trade Jones? He can be sent to the Marlies and can't be claimed.

Actually that is not accurate regarding Martin Jones. He did clear waivers October 9, 2023 but on January 1, 2024 he had to be put on the roster. Up until then he had been brought up and down on emergency loan from the Toronto Marlies. At this point he would have to clear waivers. I suspect that the Leafs would lose him on waivers.

Jones would have to go through waivers again if sent down. If you spend more than 30 days on the roster or play more than 10 games you have to pass through waivers again
