Thread: Hamilton REPLACEMENT - LEAFS BLOCKBUSTER

This trade is terrible. It’s real bad for both teams, Svechnikov is budding superstar Carolina can build around for years to come. And the last thing the Leafs should be doing is trading away from their already subpar defense to add another scoring winger. Dumb idea for Leafs and just god awful for the Canes

Yeah I agree it would suck to lose Nylander in real life. Just used him as it was easiest to add in this scenario

Thread: Dillon Deller and Melker for Kapanen

Not saying it would be a hill I’d be willing to die on, but I’d look to counter with Johnsson plus Sharks choice of either Timashov or Bracco.

This has to be the most ridiculously low ball offer on Pietrangelo yet lol. Only place he maybe takes less than 9 a year is in St. Louis

Thread: What would you do with the leafs Reply with trades signing etc

Josh Anderson should be top target, Simmonds and Reaves would be pickups I’d love too. A Dman like Bortuzzo or Dillon would be nice. Adding some nasty to the group will help come playoff time

Thread: Tristan Jarry situation

Most likely they trade one of either Murray or Jarry rights in the offseason and sign the other. I don’t see a reason to worry about it beforehand, unless a team blows them away with an offer.

Thread: What is wrong with Rielly this year

He’s always been a high risk high reward defenseman and he doesn’t have a safety net of a stay at home partner anymore and lost his spot on the pp1, so the rewards haven’t been there but the risks remain. He might be the only Leafs player that’s looked worse since the coaching change. But have to cut him a little slack on the Mcdavid undressing, because I mean it’s freaking Mcdavid. That kids pretty good if you haven’t noticed

Thread: Ceci for Vatanen

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLSage</b></div><div>Leafs should just keep Ceci as he is a decent defender. The Leafs defence of Reilly, Muzzin, Barrie, Dermott, Holl and Ceci is actually probably as good or better than most defensive cores in the NHL.</div></div>
I agree he’s looked much better lately. He’s a good shot blocker and skates pretty well. He was just misplayed at the start of season as a top pair guy. But that 4.5 cap hit makes it not a bad idea to still look at moving him if you can replace him with someone equal or better but cheaper.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Capitalfail67</b></div><div>I’m actually happy for the leaf fans but I have no clue how you guys are so optimistic. Before the capitals won the cup i was so negative and could appreciate any regular season accomplishments</div></div>

A lot of it comes from a swagger we get from an us vs everybody mentality. Doesn’t seem to matter what teams fan base it is, they hate the Leafs for whatever reason. Especially the other Canadian team fans because they know when the Leafs come to town, our fans are taking over their building and making it our own. The hate gives us confidence.
P.S I was super stoked to see Ovie get his cup. Congrats to your boys for getting one after years of falling short

Maybe not a major upgrade on Ceci but yeah I’d say he’s an upgrade, plus a little over a million cheaper cap hit. Ceci is the better skater, Dillon is bigger and stronger. He’d be a good net clearing presence

Thread: This SJ TOR trade just makes too much sense

Trading a 23 yr old speedy winger for a soon to be UFA Dman makes too much sense to you? This would be like asking for Meier for Ceci lol. Except kapanen signed for about half the money and Dillon a left shot not right. Still make too much sense?

Thread: Leafs need a guy like Reaves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLSage</b></div><div>Leafs do not really need Reeves and will just call up Marchment if they want to add some sandpaper.</div></div>
Thing is Leafs can’t really call anyone up unless they make a trade or someone else gets hurt again. Only thing that’s kept them from running a 20 man roster is the constant string of guys going on LTIR. Leafs need sandpaper and a way to keep Engvall up with the Leafs. If Leafs are going to win in playoffs they need someone who’s going to keep Boston players and Wilson of the Caps from taking free runs at guys. Think AA takes a run Kerfoots knee if someone like Reaves is out there? All respect to Holl for stepping up there but that’s not exactly his game

Every other Vegas Agm I see is them trying to get more scoring. This gives them that

See you would consider it then. So your thread title maybe should have been Leafs shouldn’t be shopping Barrie. Which is something I can agree with to some extent

Thread: We shouldnt be considering trading Barrie

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>I don't think so, not this year. I was completely on board with this if we were talking about JVR and Bozak but not this year. I think this team could make a run and they are better with Barrie. Getting that experience is important for the others.</div></div>
He’s not so valuable that he’s untouchable. Considering a deal involving him and looking to move him are very different concepts. It should no way happen from Calgary perspective but hypothetically if they wanted Barrie and were offering a package that included Rasmus Andersson. You wouldn’t even consider it? Calling Barrie untouchable is ludicrous, which is what you’re saying if you say you wouldn’t consider moving him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>I can agree that one of them becomes expendable but definitely not both. Which one is more expendable? You can convince me either way, I'm not sold entirely on one guy over the other.</div></div>

Johnsson is more expendable than Kapanen because of Kapanen’s speed and he can kill penalties. Also have more depth on left side. I wouldn’t look to move both guys unless they were getting a power forward type guy back too.

Thread: We shouldnt be considering trading Barrie

They should be considering a good trade involving Barrie. Not that they should be looking to get rid of him, but he was always a season long rental, so if they get a good value offer for him from another team, especially one in the west, they need to consider it. Just like Blues did a couple years ago when they traded Stastny away.

Thread: Be gentle Toronto trade

Kapanen is too valuable to trade for only a backup in return.

Thread: Everyone healthy

Have to believe Dubas is working on something. Engvall’s play has earned him the right to stay but he’s the only waiver exempt guy so he’s most likely one of the guys getting sent down otherwise. He’s made Mango and possibly even Kappy expendable

Thread: Kyle Dubas is trash

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Price_is_the_goat</b></div><div>matthews makes 11.34 for 5 years. shoulda been a longer term deal. he basically walks straight to ufa. shoulda been longer. jack eichel makes less than matthews and is destroying matthews in everything.</div></div>
Eichel destroys Matthews in everything? Most goals Eichel has scored in a season is 28, Matthews lowest total is 34. Eichel has never gone to the playoffs, Matthews has been every year. Eichel is finally tearing it up in year 5 but his current shooting percentage this season is also double his career average, so this year could be the outlier just as much as it could be his coming out party. If you’re comparing cap numbers signed from different seasons you have to look at the cap percentage number to gauge the true difference
