Thread: Is Brad Ts Phone Not Working P2
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>klassic</b></div><div>Hawks needed help at forward and that was early in the season. LD is the Hawks deepest position with prospects/young nhl players. Brodie just clogs that up. They have plenty of D and don't need another in Brodie. Also Brodie is 33, Beauvillier is 26.</div></div>

Brodie plays on the right side and can handle big minutes to ease the burden on the young prospects. The age is irrelevant - both are UFAs at the end of this season.

This is a fantasy platform so this doesn't matter, but your original point that the Hawks wouldn't pay for a UFA is wrong. They have already this season and they likely will again, especially if they have more injuries. Especially if they think they can sign a veteran player to a couple years to help the rebuild (like Foligno, Mrazek, etc.)

Thread: Billy Leaf Bag
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>xercuses</b></div><div>He’s not available but let’s say he was and fix your offer

First drop the retention, it’s not happening

Second, I get Brodie has to come back to make the cap work so add him and idk like a 2nd ig to pay for the dump but it doesn’t look like Toronto has a 2nd so just make it 2 3rds

Third, well the blues need a replacement RHD that can play over 25 minutes a night and play extremely hard pairings. The leafs don’t have that so for the sake of the argument. The blues would accept Liligren in that role

Now lastly you need to actually pay for Parakyo. I assume it starts at a guy like Knies. Then a couple good picks. So your first this year and next. Maybe 2 firsts is a little high but Toronto has no seconds so they are gonna have to make do.


So it’s
Parayko for Brodie, Knies, Lilligren, 2024 first, 2026 first, 2024 3rd, 2025 3rd

That’s a much fairer offer that would probably be competitive if he was available</div></div>

Appreciate the response - definitely not something that makes sense for the Leafs. Too much going the other way for what's coming back (as great as Parayko is), in my opinion.
