Thread: A Packaged Deal And An End of An Era With Matthews And Marner To Arizona
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingExLeafs</b></div><div>No, it's a sincere trade. As much as I love Matthews and Marner, Leafs aren't winning the cup with them making a combined 26 million per year. It's just not feasible to ice a deep roster. Those two guys would have to be Superman and Batman every night. And that's too much pressure for any athlete.</div></div>

Yeah... TOR is not going full rebuild for no reason.

No team is just going to take on that cap hit.

And if the reason for trading them is that together they aren't enough to win, other teams know that too.

Also, why in hell would either player waive to go to a team no where near ready to compete for a cup that would have to sell all their futures to get them?

Get serious.

Thread: Tavares
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Staal only makes 2.9, and does everything Tavares does. Retaining means you get the extra 1st and A- prospect to get a RHD man. Toronto gets scoring depth, something that's been a serious problem, and the assets to move for a Dman. The only difference this trade makes is that you have multiple, better depth pieces on cheaper deals, and pays for the RD you need. There's no cap space for the Leafs if they keep Tavares anyway, so this does nothing but helps them was the idea</div></div>

Last time I say this: GAINING NO CAP SPACE DOES NOT SAVE YOU ANYTHING, and trading a 30 goal, 65-80 point guy for two maybe 10 goal guys DOES NOT GET YOU MORE SCORING.

Cap hit and points are numbers. You add and subtract with numbers to get the difference. Like this: 5.5 + 2.9 + 2.4 = 10.8 - 11 = DIDDLY FLIPPIN SQUAT, and worse players with no money to fill the void. DUH.
