Thread: Sandin - Burn it or not?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>Burning the first year of the contract is 1 year NHL experience. Next year is 2. So that his 2 years in the NHL. And we have to think he plays 70 games over that time frame. Be some creative lineup juggling to get it to work.</div></div>

1st and 2nd year players are exempt. The 40/70 rule is for exposure. Leafs have to expose a Dman who plays 40 games next year or 70 over the this year and next. That is simple. Acquire a 2 year contract at the deadline. Someone cheap.

Thread: Sandin - Burn it or not?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>I would make the deal for sure.

In burning the first year of the contract, the Leafs will have no option now but to expose Dermott in the expansion draft, as Sandin will quite lilely not be exempt..... (40/70 rule). I have a feeling that us why he didn't stick with the club in the first place, and not so much to do with development. A protect 3 of Reilly, Dermott and what is now Holl would have been 110% ideal. Always questions up front, but now Dermott on the back end adds to Dubas' expansion headache.</div></div>

The 40/70 rule is for players who are not exempt. You have to leave players open with that experience. Sandin will be exempt.

Kapanen in younger, and yes he is better. His game is developing very nicely.

Anderson had one great season. Kappy does have 10 times more goals this season and that is on a relatively slow goal scoring pace for him.

You can try and make dummy posts all you want but any person who would take Anderson over Kappy is the real dummy.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Howyoudrouinnn</b></div><div>Surprisingly no.

I looked at the CBJ trade and realized CBJ would be stupid to give up a potential 30 goal scorer and one of their top dmen for Kap and a downgrade on D.

the ANA is silly, no one is taking Ceci's contract and helping the leafs for a 5th.</div></div>
They are getting a player with far better potential to be a 30 goal scorer.

Thread: 3 way TOR CGY

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>Trading Engvall is a non-starter. Interesting interview I listened to on a local radio station in which they discussed the Kadri trade he nixed that would have sent Brodie to Toronto. Apparently Brodie did not want to leave Calgary and would have used his modified NTC to block the trade to the Leafs.

So even if Kadri had been okay going to Calgary, Brodie was not okay leaving even though he's from Chatham, Ontario.</div></div>
Actually leafs were added to that list later. Kadri saved dubas’ ass. Jankowski and Brodie would have been a disaster.

Forum: Armchair-GM15 hours ago

Thread: 3 way TOR CGY

I am a leafs fan and a Flames fan. The last great thing Kadri did for this team was to kibosh a trade that would send us brodie. We are certainly not sending engvall and kapanen out for Brodie. The fact that we are on his very short ntc list really puts a nail in this coffin.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MDA_47</b></div><div>At this point I don’t care as long as he’s gone</div></div>

Toronto doesn’t have what you need. I think we would need to move something for futures. A decent rhd prospect and picks.

I know Manson isn’t as bad as he played tonight but it’s hard to justify moving out ceci to bring in Manson (inside my head... using extremely short term memory)

I will try to do up an agm that seems fair.

Manson looked horrible tonight. Every time I think of a trade with the leafs I’m terrified that this is the player we will get.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Chigurrhh</b></div><div>Me: "Sandin is an elite prospect"

You: "You are biased against against Leafs".</div></div>

I think the argument that you are biased isn’t accurate. Personally I don’t think you have seen liljegren play very much.

He’s not a prospect that will blow you away. He is however a solid player that will fill leafs needs in the future. I think he will be a decently cheap 2nd contract that will turn into a steal. Random had mentioned andersson earlier and that is exactly who he reminds me of. I watch a lot of both of them.

Would I move Lilly? I sure would. But the return would need to be perfect. Obviously there would be more pieces involved. I would want a youngish #1rhd with a solid defensive game coming back.

Thread: Leafs Pens Islanders Jets

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>You say late bloomers, but he is right on schedule. Sandin is just blowing our expectations out if the water so much that he looks slow in comparison.

Look at Rasmus ansersson's reputation. Lily is younger and has a better resume at the same age, but ansersson is a top 4 stud while lily is a bust.</div></div>

I’m actually talking about the future of his career. Right now I think he’s right on track, I think your comparison is perfect. Andersson is not a stud. But he will be. I think over the next 3 seasons he develops exponentially. That is how I think Lilly will grow. Especially when he gets more comfortable. He has developed a very healthy defensive game. I could easily see him evolving into a top pair But not without struggles.

It really looks like a genius move when he does that. I just hope it's all worth it.</div></div>

Whether the leafs make the playoffs or not when a player is ready and now due to injuries is the best option for the last spot you give him that shot. All day every day. The confidence shown by keefe and dubas went right into his game.

I think you nailed it in another comment about the key injuries during development. You said he would be 80% of spurgeon.

No leafs fans are on here comparing him to makar or even sandin. He is a solid prospect at a position of weakness who will make less than 1m for the next two years. I think he sill be a late bloomer and a solid top 4 guy.

2)Liljegren is a fantastic prospect wtf are you talking about?!?!</div></div>

People who don’t watch him play look at his stats and make off the cuff evaluations. That should have been a question rather than a comment.

There is a huge difference between looking at names and numbers and dealing with real people. Sandin is ready and can help the team. He’s in. Any gm would do the same. Shooting yourself in the foot to save a buck is not how the nhl is run.

Thread: Engvall to Centre

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Sandin has looked OK to good, so he HAS to be in the lineup.

This might be the best Leaf lineup with Mikheyvov and Reilly still on LTIR.</div></div>

Marincin has looked okay. Essentially ecially on the pk. I do think that sandin has been better and this will be a good step in his development. Certainly can’t be bad for his confidence to have the team bring him up knowing that his elc will be shortened. Shows him that he is needed.
