Thread: Canes 24-25 Cap Crunch
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fullblowncaniac90</b></div><div>Teravainen likely walks, so does Martinook. Pesce, at that price, i would like to see back but i could see him pricing himself out. Probably a small underpay on Jarvis. And Nikishin will hopefully be signed in the offseason so no need for Dillon.</div></div>

I agree that Teuvo, Martinook, &amp; Pesce could all get more elsewhere; If they wish to continue with the Canes, that's just where I see their deals being. Very possible, if not likely, that they are all gone.

Jarvis is the biggest wildcard in the teams offseason plans IMO. You could go long term but that's going to come at a higher AAV and give you less space the next year or two when you're in this win now window. If you do a bridge deal with a lower AAV to allow a little more $ to go around now, you'll gain space to extend him long term once Burns/Orlov are off the books and you get cheaper replacements in Morrow/Nikishin.

Thread: Brad Tradeliving
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Maximporebski</b></div><div>Its funny that you say that, and yet Marner is better and more valuable than every single player on Carolina. Brodie was a top-5 defensive defender in the league this year according to JF analytics, he is a player that would fit in beautifully under Brind'Amour. Timmins is a third pairing offensive option in this league, he just doesn't fit the leafs system, especially with the signing of Klingberg which no one seems to like, including me. This is a fair trade because the 3 Canes players I added are free agents after next year, which reduces their value. Marner has 2 years of control and is a far superior player to anyone on your roster, he alone is worth close to the trio of Necas Skjei and Pesce</div></div>

If Marner is as godly as you've described, why is it that the team with him and Matthews (who I'm going to assume you hold in even higher regards than Marner) can't seem to complete with the old little southern market team. Please do explain Carolina's 32 playoff wins (7 series) over the last 5 years compared to the Leafs 16 (1 series). You all literally had Eric Tulsky in your hand, and sad, nahhhh we like Treliving. Would of been the best pick-up your team made all year, now the rest of the league gets to sit back and watch you unravel.

Thread: Offseason moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>themostleaf33</b></div><div>Nylander will come in at 9, or at least that is what his ask is. He will probably get that with Meier getting 8.8.

Liljgren is a solid young defenceman, and the whole point of this trade is that Nylander &gt; Necas, but Pesce is &gt; Liljgren. However, the two players that are worse (Necas and Liljgren), are younger and will be easier to re-sign. This trade works for both teams if you actually think about it. If Liljgren was just as good as Pesce, then the Leafs would never offer this deal. Its called a hockey trade. Sometimes you need to trade your strengths to address your weaknesses.</div></div>

The Leafs win one round in a decade and they think they're the authority on what you need to win. You got beat by your own Zamboni driver, pipe down.
