<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>Dermott has been good this year. His advance numbers are as good and better than Oleksiak. And that is with him having Bogosian as a partner. Who does Oleksiak play with? One of the best defenceman in the game. So how do you think he'll do with a worse partner? Better than Dermott? Highly unlikely. As you can see, I am using a lot of reasoning.</div></div>

BanMe, I like Dermott, but having that beast Oleksiak, who looked amazing last cup run, is a boost for the playoffs for sure. If it was engvall and a 2nd I'd do that deal. If it was dermott and a 3rd, i might even do that. If this is for this years cup run, you got to make the moves, and I think the leafs with Oleksiak in the lineup is better.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Maximporebski</b></div><div>Fair point. Kokkanen is a third equivalent. If Laughton was on contract for more than this season then things would be different. Keep in mind that Philly could always sign him as a UFA in the summer, and come out with two decent assets. But your point is fair, Leafs would probably need to dish a second to get him.</div></div>

I agree, your point of two decent assets in regards to 2 3rds is still meh when you consider the prospect depth Philly has. (Right now their ahl team has 5 rookie dmen including wylie, millman, cam york and zamula. And they have (among others) rookies foerester, wisdom, allison, ratcliffe, sandin at forward. And all playing amazingly well. with top end prospects frost and bobby brink on way)

And youre right its a UFA rental, that PHI might re-sign, but Laughton is a player of desire for quite a few clubs. I've long said his value is higher than his pts, and a 2nd and 3rd probably do it. I think I went with a mid-top of mid level prospect like a Hallander and a 2nd in 2023 is probably close.

Thread: Buffalo Big Changes Next Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Maximporebski</b></div><div>So as presently contracted, they would be 5.366 mil over the cap next season, and that accounts for 11F, 5D, and 1G. So you need 1 extra player at each position. I hope the taxi squad remains a thing because its helpful to get guys in an out of the lineup without taking cap hits as scratches. Cal Foote and Borgman are RFA as well. You are probably looking at a big piece or two departing, unless BriseBois finagles another season ending surgery to one of the big dogs again. Tampa is in deeeeeeeeeeeeeeep cap trouble come 2021-22.</div></div>

absolutely. Hence why they unload over 15m in this and get the 1st overall pick. Not their number one preference. But one hell of a consolation prize.
