Thread: Ron Hainsey has been Reillys best defence partner

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>That's a hot take, while Doughty is clearly no longer a top defenceman in the league, he's definitely still very good. He is on a brutal team. I'd be thrilled with Doughty next to Rielly at the right price probably around 5 million. Is Holl better? I doubt it but he's certainly better value. An effective top 4 (regardless of whatever anyone wants to say next to Muzzin he gets the job done) at 2 million is a terrific value contract. Doughty getting paid for what he did in his prime is just bad money.</div></div>

Doughty is nowhere near a top defender in the league. His defensive impacts are bruuuuuutal, He cant defend against speed and he can only score on the power play. If he was a top defender he wouldnt look near as bad, or have as bad results on the red wings, he's just broken down now. Playing 30+ mins a game for 10 years does bad things to the human body and only freaks of nature stand up to it. It's not Drew's fault he doesnt have it anymore.
Holl is better defensively. Doughty could out score him, sure, and is a better transition passing defender (the one thing he remains very good at) but he bleeds shots and chances against in a way that would make Tyson Barrie blush.

he's just mad that Holl is much better defensively than Doughty at 1/5th the cost and plays better with bad partners

he plays like a 4 without muzzin too, but a 4 cant do much when he's saddled with a 7th against tough competition

Thread: how upgrade the leafs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pasta88bruins</b></div><div>Not what I was thinking but okay</div></div>

i mean, it's true. The wild trade is a terrible defensive downgrade for not really any gain at 3c, Jack Johnson is one of the worst defenders in the NHL, the leafs have no need to trade dermott and they REALLY dont need another aging vet like Bobby ryan at the expense of their best PK forward

Actually yes, on a good team. Unless you are the Hurricanes or the lightening, Holl is more than likely at least your 4th best defender.

yeah, it's almost like Savard is hilarously over rated and has produced bad results but people think he's good because he's on a good defensive team. take off your Dubas hate glasses and understand how hockey works.

yeah, most are pretty bad. Habs fans are notorious for over valuing their pieces. This AGM isnt the best offer out there (there have been frankly some hilarious over pays) but this is the high end of good/semi-realistic

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>leafs101</b></div><div>this one is a bit more realistic though. Leafs had this pick and then traded It for like a couple of second rounders if I recall correctly.

yeah, they traded it for the 29th and 61st over all picks then they traded back again for the 34th.

because people believe dumb things like him being soft, despite them watching him win 50/50 puck battles all the time, being impossible to move off the puck and scoring boatloads of goals from the front of the net

If i was re-doing that draft i'd still make the trade and then just draft Aho and Cirelli
