Thread: My Actual Prediction
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>The only thing I'd change is Mikheyev with Johnsson, I'd rather see a bigger body that can crash the net play with Matthews. Matthews is a shooter who creates a tonne of rebounds and Johnsson just doesn't get to the net enough to capitalize on that. On the flip side, Kerfoot is an excellent playmaker and giving him a pair of shooters in Kap and Johnsson, both with speed, will be a very good 3rd line option to send out against other 3rd lines.</div></div>

I agree, I've been watching a lot of video highlights on Mikheyev and he's the Russian Hyman with better hands. I think he would compliment the Matthews line really well. Having a Johnsson - Kerfoot - Kapanen line is a really scary 3rd line and will probably out score most third lines in the league.

Thread: Because this organization ib massively stupid
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Unless they get insane value from Toronto, it's hard to see how this is anything but a cost saving move. Sens are putting themselves in a much worse position than if they had just not qualified Ceci.</div></div>

I don't think the sweetner from the Leafs will be anything of significance. Zaitsev bonus will be paid by the Leafs so the salary the Sens will have to pay is just 3.9M and the AAV of 4.5 help you gets reach the cap floor. The media and this community really makes Zaitsev seem worse than he really is. Babs put him in a defensive Dman role and encouraged stretch passes. Under a new system you guys may get year 1 in the NHL Zaitsev plus the Zaitsev that played with team Russia at worlds. Leafs are getting Ceci, lets not pretend one team is upgrading more than the other here.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>I highly doubt anyone sees him as an A Grade Prospect at 22 turning 23. He's not a late bloomer either, he's a talented player but with many holes in his game that keep him out of the NHL. I like Bracco and if the Leafs move Kapanen (who I think should be moved) then he could get a shot in the lineup, but I also think someone better defensively would be a better add for TO than Bracco. He's a PP specialist and the Leafs have 2 better versions of Bracco in Marner and Nylander.

If he has high value after this past season in the AHL, then he should be traded for defensive help. I just don't see Bracco ever emerging in TO.</div></div>

I don't believe he'll merge in Toronto either but he could slot on a handful of teams as the 2-3 RW and added powerplay time. He does have holes in his games but a lot of people who trade him in ARMCHAIR overlook that for whatever. I think he's good trade bait just not AS good as some people claim.

Me personally, I'm a fan of a Power Forward style of game. I'm excited to see how Yegor Korshkov game translates to North America.
