Thread: Leafs TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>That's of course why he is traded... You are getting a first rounder here. Dermott is for cap reasons. Plus you get a young dmen for next year who can play the left or the right. I understand Montreal has a lot of young defensive depth already. So they can either trade him or trade another guy. Getting Dermott in this package has zero negatives for Montreal. But the main thing is they get the 1st rounder.</div></div>

MTL still has no reason to give up a 3rd. Your logic for Dermott is that he's only in it for the cap right?? but then you added a pick to come back for him so I don't know what logic you're using anymore to have Dermott in the trade.

MTL will not give up anything to acquire another 7th Dman, they might take him for cap but they would only be sending Chiarot w/retained

Thread: My Kent Hughes Team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>I would say that the chances of trading Allen are slim this season as they just protected him in the ED. Also why would you trade Lehkonen? Him Poehling and Caufield have formed a dominant line offensively, I suggest swapping Toffoli for Lehkonen and moving Pitlick to C line 2 and trading Perrault instead. Lineup becomes

Lehkonen-Suzuki-Caufield
Drouin-Pitlick-Anderson
Toffoli-Dvorak-Gallagher
Byron-Poehling-Evans

Edmundson-Petry
Romanov-Savard
Clague-Wideman

Price
Allen</div></div>

I don't mind keeping lehky, he's one of my favourite players but he could easily be sent out and fetch a good return

Its unlikely he will be traded but he's one of the better value players MTL has to trade IMO.

On Toffoli it seems like he can get his game back to how it was last year if he can stay healthy, him and Suzuki have a good chemistry on a line just need to find the perfect 3rd guy

Thread: toffoli
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yycofred</b></div><div>No... no it's not. Pelletier is a professional rookie and sits 2nd in the AHL in points with over a point per game, his game took a massive jump from last season to this one, Poirrier is essentially a second shot at Oliver Kylington, slid in the draft due to a poor defensive game but the ceiling is way higher than a lot of prospects.
An underperforming 27 year old C isn't a cap dump, he'd be 4th in points on the Habs all while playing on the 4th line in Calgary, he has 1 less goal and the same amount of assists as Toffoli while playing with significantly worse line mates given Toffoli has missed a few games. Monahan and Toffoli have very very similar extended stats as well.. If your argument is that Monahan is a cap dump so is Toffoli.</div></div>

Alot to un pack here

1) Toffoli retained for 2 years is worth at least two 2nds plus more, MTL has been horrid this year, no one has looked good. (He scored 28 in 52 last year)

2) Monahan is useless for MTL, he's just extra cap space. They need to get younger not add 6mil players who lost their footing. (Has scored 14 in his last 83)

3) Calgary has a use for Toffoli, which makes him an asset not a cap dump. Especially at 2.2 mil for 2 1/2 years.
