Thread: What I want to see happen
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vr1995</b></div><div>then when cheap melnyk wont wanna pay them they will want a trade out, every star player you get wants out, cant act like people want to play in ottawa, not fun playing games infront of 12 people except when they have road games at home vs the habs and leafs when its sold out with opposing fans, i think they have solid prospects as well im not gonna sit here and be ignorant but if they also pan out their going to want money too, youll come back with well they wont ask for money like matthews and marner. but they also arent players like matthews and marner, matthews isnt overpaid hes earned his contract, if you wanna take the rantanen comparable for the marner contract then marner is overpaid by a measly 1.6 mil, you also act like they have reached their ceiling at 23 which isnt the case, and nylander has outplayed his contract this yar and most likely will get better, tkachuk is a great player but he isnt marner, and theres noone close to matthews</div></div>

Sens are gonna be stacked in a few years they have 9 picks in the first 3 rounds this year and 4 in the first 2 rounds next year. They got chabot to commit long term, if they get tkachuk to commit long term other young players will follow in their steps. I think Dorion has actually done a good job recently so as long as Melnyk doesnt do anything really stupid (which is very possible) the sens are gonna be good very soon and for a long time.

Thread: Adding some toughness and addressing the Defense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Saying names vs watching the games and seeing what they actually did are 2 different things. A significant portion of on ice pressure and zone control happened from that 3rd line. After a very disappointing season that line was a surprising sign of hope. They drew lots of penalties gained zone control for offensive face offs and applied tones of pressure to some of the opponents top lines. In theory they should not have been that good but they were.</div></div>

Im not saying they were bad im saying that they definitely werent better than the Gaudreau-Monahan-Lindholm and Mangiapane-Backlund-Tkachuk lines. Calgary was looking for depth scoring at the deadline and they didnt get any. theyre also looking to move Sam Bennett and considering the leafs have a lot of depth scoring and lack toughness I think Calgary and Toronto would be good trade partners

Thread: Adding some toughness and addressing the Defense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kams </b></div><div>I like the idea for what you’re doing, but I absolutely love the Holl/Muzzin pairing, so I’d rather keep him and not get Roy, can ship Dermott and Mango out in separate trades, preferably sending either one of them to Calgary to get Bennett. This keeps Bracco for a deadline deal if need be. I like the framed work for the Kerfoot trade. If we actually keep Holl, I think he’d be the most likely to be picked by Seattle, therefore giving Lilly a shot at the big club like you said. Also, thank you for bringing in Martin, I’d love to see him back in Toronto.</div></div>

I loved the Holl/Muzzin pairing too and I would be totally fine if the Leafs kept him, but with that much cap space in my arm chair I just thought why not. I wonder if the Roy trade could be a deadline move if Holl or someone else struggles. A top 4 of Muzzin, Holl, Rielly, Demelo would be amazing.
