Thread: Is Georgiev the second coming of Christ

NYR wants are not condus<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pmwalker</b></div><div>Kapanen for Georgiev straight up is fair. With the second it’s too much

Lindblom for Georgiev straight up is probably fair. With the second again it’s too much.

Difference is Philly doesn’t need a backup goalie and has Hart and Elliott/Lyon currently and a few other decent goalie prospects in the system.

Toronto on the other hand desperately needs a backup and may need a cheaper starter option in a few years. Georgiev provides that.</div></div>

There are less expensive options, I get what NYR wants but wants are just that wants, at the current asking price no one is biting on Georgiev cause he is unproven regardless of what NYR management and their fans think - unproven Goalie, fringe starter maybe - if he has 4 bad games back to just a backup

Thread: Bracco and a 2nd

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Skinner was an impending UFA and had a restrictive NTC, limiting Waddell's choices, and neither applies to Dumba. Also, I wouldn't put Skinner in the same category as Aho, Teranvainen or Svechnikov, and I put Dumba in the same category as Pesce; as proven by events, Carolina has been able to do quite well without Skinner, and we saw last year how well Minnesota does without Dumba.</div></div>

Wild haven't done that "well" with Dumba either, I have Dimba in the Darnell Nurse category I only have Pesce a step up based on contract AAV and length

Thread: Bracco and a 2nd

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Doesn't "lose virtually nothing" mean "Minnesota gets virtually nothing"?</div></div>

Not necessarily, I think he meant Lose move roster players and assets that they find expendable in their organization and bring in roster players that that Leafs do not have in the organization. Doesn't mean the roster players or assets going to Minny have no value it's TO trading from their strength to fill a weakness hole. It's probably not enough for Dumba but swap Johnsson for Kapenen and probably add an additional 3rd and Minny and TO are talking

If you're talking about cap hit, this is the first season there has ever been a defenseman with an $11 million cap hit, so a team has never missed the playoffs with a D having an $11 million cap hit either.</div></div>

Cap hit is the only thing relevant, not looking good on playoffs for 11 million on a single Defense man

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Think you have proved why the Leafs don't make the deal....it's a massive overpayment. Look how successful the Sharks have been the 11.5m Karlsson and now even the 8m Burns. Not good at all.
You really can't used % as a yardstick. When younger players want to get good contracts it's no good for a team to have declining players plugging up the cap. And as we have seen last summer, good RFA are getting close or even UFA money.
Sharks and their over 30 year and more threesome of Karlsson, Burns, Vlasic...26.5m. awful value on the ice right now.</div></div>

Has there even been a team that has made the playoffs paying a D 11 million? I don't think so

Except it's 34 yr old Brent Burns with a long long expensive contract, not 28 year old Erik Karlsson, who if you didn't pay you'd have that lovely top 3 pick.

Thread: DEADLINE FOR DUMBA

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div>This would be awful for MN. We have zero reason to force a Dumba trade. If he's moved, it will be for a premium asset such as a center prospect with top 6 potential or a top 10 draft pick. Nylander is the closest thing the Leafs have to either of those assets and they aren't trading him so there isn't really any trade to be made.</div></div>

No one's giving a top 10 pick for Dumba let alone adding a top prospect or C with Top 2 line potential

Thread: Lets not forget how young this team is

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Trevorchef</b></div><div>I'm not going to comment on the trades because I think that the important message is delivered in the description. This team is young at its core. They do show their immaturity on the regular and they need to learn how to win properly by competing night in and night out instead of when they feel like it. Until they do we can expect the same results.

This is not on one person or player. It takes a village to be bad. There is no single trade that will "fix" the Leafs. This is about culture, determination and a burning desire to want to achieve collectively. This group is fatal flawed in the way it is constructed and has been all year.

To the OP... Well said. Thanks for posting. I wish more people saw the big picture.</div></div>

Thank you.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ritzy</b></div><div>Not sure that Calgary would be sending a first round pick in that deal, especially with Barrie being a UFA at the end of the season.

With the hot mess the Pacific is I believe the flames consider them selves deep runners, Barrie is worth a first for any contending team looking to bolster their 2nd PP unit which Calgary definitely should be

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wabit</b></div><div>There wouldn't be any condition to trading Dumba IRL.

Some of the trades here conditions are used as more of a value offset than anything else. People get worked up over a 3rd that should be a 2nd, or a 2nd that should be a 3rd way too often.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wabit</b></div><div>Duchene was a rental+1 when OTT made that trade. Usually the conditions are for rentals, yes.

That was my thought, couldn't figure out why there would be any condition on aquiring Dumba

Thread: Dumba

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wabit</b></div><div>But all their waiver fodder is better than Brocco. Brocco is the next Sprong.</div></div>

He's never been called up and sent down so I guess we don't really know, his value is minimal, he'd be nothing more than a throw in. I do think Minny is in need of a rebuild - D core is fine really nothing to do there, Forward group does need a decent turnover. If Dumba is in play Minny will take what deal or player they see as the best player available properly not overly concerned with position or which hand he shoots with. If they move out Zucker as well then really they don't have much going on up front

Thread: Wild Dumba Rumours - Adjusted based on ACGM feedback

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mikearky</b></div><div>Yes, the condition would follow the pick. Carolina can keep or trade the pick as they are the reciever of the pick, it is Toronto that can not trade a conditional pick. If they made a deal with Carolina that they would receive 2020 no matter what and Carolina accepted, then they could trade pick. But with all the crazy things that could happen, Leafs miss playoffs and win draft lottery and Carolina get Alexis Lafriene</div></div>

It's not common to see conditions on picks with players for term is it? I've never noticed them before and thought the conditions were generally put on picks for rentals as way to protect an organization if the wheels fall off

Thread: Wild Dumba Rumours - Adjusted based on ACGM feedback

Of course their all saying add add add - value is based on the players performance nothing more. Dumba = a young roster player with upside a B to A- prospect and a late 1st. Anything more and you'll be pissed by the end of next season with the fact that Dumba didn't solve the Leafs defensive issues and every Homer on here will telling you you'll need to pay to move him.
