Thread: My wish list
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LeafsfanMathews</b></div><div>Just curious would you rather have Hall and his 4mil cap hit (retention) playing on the 2nd line or Andersen and his cap hit sitting on the bench, only getting in if Campbell can’t play?

I think the LAK deal is fine, Iafallo is awesome. How would you change it?</div></div>

I wouldn't acquire Hall in the first place tbh. Hertl to me is more valuable and is a bigger body. I don't see why a team would acquire Freddie because of his health struggles, and it would be a wasted assets for us to package first round picks to dumb is contract you know, id way rather see him on LTIR. Abruzzese is considered an A prospect now (lower-end A), so I wouldn't deal him to get Iaffalo for two months of services. Hirvonen and a second would be what I would offer.

<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>

I am not necessarily looking at this season. Dallas has been in disarray and they are probably the biggest disappointment so far this season. Oleksiak was a beast in the bubble last year, and it caught my eye and many others. Dermott and Bogo have paired really well together, but it also helps that the Leafs don't give up many goals anymore, and don't concede much zone time like in past years when Dermott was a sub-par defender.

I'll say it again, if the Leafs are looking to upgrade, you have to at least offer quality. If you truly believe you'll have a good playoffs, (and all signs point to yes), then your draft picks will be low.

Offers of mid level prospects, or AHL/NHL tweeners like andersen, barabanov, engvall, brooks, rosen, etc... and low picks in rounds 3 or 4, 2 SEASONS AWAY, is not quality. Its like the ghost of Jeremey Bracco over and over

Im not saying you have to overpay but the offers are so unequal....</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.
