Thread: Andersson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>I don't know why you would say Keefe doesn't like Robertson. Since Robertson has been injury free, he's getting ice time. Why do people think a coach would hinder his team because he doesn't like a player?
Andersson may thrives in Toronto. well he only has two full seasons till a UFA.
I'm rally miffed at so many Leaf fans in their high regard for Calgary Dmen.... You know the so called pathetic Leafs Dmen have the same GAA as the Flames.
So many have Weager, Andersson, Hanifan and Tanev as all Norris candicates.</div></div>

Flames team defence is significantly worse, but I do agree to some extent that the Flames top four is overrated but I think that's why you go for a guy like Andersson that has continuously gotten better every season of his career

Thread: Andersson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>McBain is probably worth more than Robertson, so Arizona doesn't make the trade. But Robertson is playing well, so what's the point.
Andersson would be nice but geez going by the post, a 20 man roster isn't wise
Here's the balance acquiring Andersson (even if Calgary agreed), for two years. Are the Leafs better having Minten, Niemela in the minors next season, the first and third, and 4.5m in cap to sign other Dman
Then Niemela and Minten are Leafs in 25/26 on ELC. Minten is the only centre prospect the Leafs hav</div></div>

I just think Robertson isn't gonna work out here we've known for a long time Keefe doesn't like him and it seems best to part ways. McBain is likely at his ceiling now as a 3C while Robertson likely has more upside which is what Arizona would likely covet, although I think you could argue maybe the leafs toss in a 3rd instead of a 5th. Solid point on Andersson but I believe he can really thrive in Toronto. I also think Cowan can eventually be a centre at the NHL level and adding McBain makes Minten's loss easier to stomach

Thread: Fixing the team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Snowhawk18</b></div><div>I think Hawks decline on both of these proposals, they have bottom of the roster players, they difference makers. The combined cap hit for Kampf and Reaves is $3.75m for the next two seasons and then $2.4m for one additional year of Kampf, I don’t see a 3rd and 5th round pick while sending a 7th back is enticing enough for Chicago to agree.</div></div>

When you put it like that it certainly sounds a lot worse, but the way I think of it is Reaves contract is almost fully buriable (would only be 200 000 on the cap in the AHL) which is why I think it would only cost a 5th to move him. Kampf is still at the very least a solid 4th line center and an excellent penalty killer who could legitimately help the Hawks by the time they are contenders again on a slightly overpaid but not unreasonable cap.
