I think the Leafs should look to move one of the forwards that Keefe won't play (most likely Gregor as he could probably net something, like a 4rth or 5th but still better than nothing)

Gregor dont got much value and were seeing guys like him end up on waivers and sent down

Look at Boulet, MacDonald, Sanford, etc

If he gets claimed would be very surprised

Leafs should look to see if a team wants him and if they'd give up assets for him as like you said, they can find another version of Gregor in UFA

As said before look at the guys above same production and all ended up waived. U wont get much if anything

Its just FC at this point or waivers

Either way no harm no foul guy dont got much value at this point

Look at Timmins last year though, a 5th for him...

I'd even take a 7th as Gregor is currently a unused asset so might as well get any value you can

Timmins was traded for Curtis Douglas (AHL player) what 5th are we talking about.....

The reason ARI had to take the trade was cause they risked losing him for nothing on waivers so made a desperation trade

If we move Gregor its either for FC, a worse player (AHL guy), or hes waived

Hes got zilch value as if he did guys like Boulet or Macdonald would get picks lul

Besides Tanev, Walker, Hanifin, Carrier, etc who are some other good trade targets to look at?

Adam Larsson, Rasmus Andersson, John Marino, etc.

And after Friedman's latest report scratch a lot of those guys off as it seems rentals aint in the plans if a 1st be involved

Honestly a good TDL for me is if the Leafs walk away with Adam Larsson + Alexandre Texier

U get an RFA 24 year old penalty killing bottom 6 guy and a 6'3 over 200 pound top 4 RD who should pair nicely with Rielly and has another year


But if we go by one team standard then the forwards probs gonna be one of: Tatar, Wennberg, PEB, or Yamamoto

Would love Kartye but doubt SEA moves him

I know this sounds weird, but is there even a package for Auston Matthews from any of the other 31 teams?

Strictly from a value for value point of view? Sure

Realistically? Doubtful

There are 2 teams that can afford to trade for Auston Matthews: Edmonton and Colorado

Ok come now let’s not get delusional here, first of all Matthews isn’t going anywhere, but if he were to get traded, either one of Mack or Davo is going to be enough on their own.

If McDavid wants to join the crew, he can in 3 years, and I can tell you Matthews isn't leaving Toronto for Edmonton...

And Draisaitl is worse offensively, way worse defensively version so they'd need to be way more added onto him

I think my main interest on D would be Oleksiak, if available. I think he's a better target than the reportedly available RD's. Three playoffs left, huge and rangy, good defensively and can play both sides. I'd be more than happy to play him with Rielly this year and then move him over when Brodie's gone next year and revisit the right side then.

Rielly - Oleksiak
Brodie - Liljegren
Benoit - McCabe

becomes

Rielly - x (Roy/Demelo/Tanev/Pesce/Carrier)
Oleksiak - Liljegren
Benoit - McCabe

Plus he could potentially be packaged with a forward from Seattle
