Thread: very very very very very very very unrealistic

I'm impressed. I saw the title and saw the Jackets logo and thought "this is going to be another Seth Jones poach attempt, isn't it". But it wasn't!

I'm kind of worried about the value of Dermott in that deal, tho. For one, we're already grossly overstrength at LD, and for another, I'm not sure what kind of money he wants and therefore whether or not we can afford to pay him.

CBJ accepts.

Honestly I think it's a good deal for both teams. Because TOR is going nowhere without any defense.

Thread: Nylander go bye bye

Big picture, this lineup has better defense and goaltending than the 19-20 leafs, more grit and skill in the bottom six forwards. The question is whether, when they get a full year playing with Matthews or Tavares, either of Mikheyev or Kassian can can produce the 50-60 points that Nylander is capable of. I'm guessing no, but they each get 40. With better defense and goaltending, that keeps the Leafs right where they are, in the standings.

Take LIljegren out of the Devils trade, at least. They'd probably give you Zacha and Severson for just Nylander. Could throw in more salary if you wanted. They have McLeod ready to try out at 3C, and have too much cash committed to a defense with too much offense and not enough defense, as is. Nylander gives them hope for the future and a roster spot to sign a UFA defensive defenseman, or develop one of the ones they have.

AZ is in salary trouble...rumoured that they need to shed $10M. Id be willing to bet they'd give you the best bang for your buck for Freddie. AZ gets a starting goalie back and saves a few Mil.

Thread: The Future Toronto Maple Leafs

What has thatcher demolished done to earn a 5 x 5 contract. He is a backup goalie, even Hutchinson won 2 playoff games no ones trading a first for him.

Thread: Unlikely but maybe

Not bad, but you could probably get back more for Johnsson (maybe a 3rd and a depth forward). Pietrangelo would more likely play with Rielly since Holl is seemingly only good next to Muzzin and Pietrangelo would be a natural complement to Rielly. Also, Mikko Lehtonen has to make the team.

Thread: Strengthening the wings

Why would the Leafs Trade Johnsson for Yakimov? He's a 25 year old average KHL player with 1 NHL game experience. That does nothing for the Leafs.

Strongly disagree that anyone will "Really like Russell" at any point. He is, quite literally, one of the worst defenceman in the league by every metric available. One of the few that I can find that are actually worse? Nikita Zaitsev.

I suppose Ottawa might like one more run at 1OA, so maybe you take those two and put them on the top pairing. That'd be fun...

Thread: Severson and Keumper

That'd be a solid no from NJ. Not enough value coming back. Sure we could use Dermott, but we don't need Andersen as we already have Blackwood as our #1, and Schneider as our overpaid backup. Petan is a 25 year old fringe nhl/ahl player that adds little value.
If you want a young right handed defenceman on a team friendly deal (4.17m/yr for 3 more years), you're going to need to give up something of value.

Yeah, Anderson isn't the answer for who's gonna be our goalie in 10 years so the hawks don't really want Anderson. We would rather just sign crow for 1 mil ish cheaper to be the short term goalie

There is 0 chance a 45 point player who is now turning 30 is worth that. That would be a heavy overpay. Especially that he only has 1 year left on his contract. This value in this AGM is not accurate, but the suggestion you gave is a big overpayment

Unrealistic is right. You're severely overpaying for Kuemper and then you turn around and offer nothing that Minnesota wants or needs.

Correct, it's very unrealistic to think Kuemper has that kind of value
