Conor Sheary is an analytics darling.

Looks like you’re gonna need to find a way to get rid of that Trouba contract before Lafreniere & Zibanejad’s contracts are up!

Obviously right now he isn't, but he hit UFA in 2019 when he was still producing at an elite rate, he could've got 10+ million.

Thread: Asking Price for Robert Thomas

I think Thomas is untouchable as STL fans believe he's better than Marner. But if there is someone TOR could target, it's Vince Dunn.

Fair enough but I feel if he were producing at his regular 0.9 PPG pace, he would be well worth his salary.

Thread: Playoff Lineup

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Brodie and Muzzin are fine, Holl still has huge issues in his own zone, and Rielly is a defensive turnstile at the moment. I don't like that top 4 for a contender. With the question marks in net, I really worry about the state of the team when they come up against a genuine contender</div></div>

I think Rielly makes up for it with his offensive ability, he is tied for the team lead in xGF%. You are right, Holl stinks. It sucks because he actually started the year off tremendously, then stunk. He is still too inconsistent to be a full time top 4 which is why I'd look at getting Oleksiak & Mete.

Thread: Playoff Lineup

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MajesticWalrus</b></div><div>If history repeats itself the big stud goalie on the Canadian team gets injured and the veteran who lost his starter role can maybe get them to the next round (probably not further) since they're not against Boston who always takes them out in the first round. Cup tho even with Campbell would be unlikely. Something always just seems off with this team in my opinion. In the past I just didn't think their back end was good enough including their goalie. This year they have the goalie and their forward group looks good on paper but a lot of these players are still out of their primes. Now their defense group looks meh on paper in comparison but is decent. Is it better than the islanders back end tho or Minnesota's or Vegas or TB. I don't think so.</div></div>

Yeah i don’t think Toronto’s defence even with Oleksiak & Mete would be as stacked as VGK, NYI, COL or MIN. Talent wise it is probably similar to Tampa but they have the generational D Hedman which separates them. Still their defence is solid & they have a more stacked offence than most of those teams IMO.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>As has been seen with Simmonds he can't get it done there.

I'm all for acquiring actual talented toughness.

But this reminds me of when the moron Carlyle tried to put Orr with Kadri for toughness.

Foligno 2-3 years ago or even last year absolutely. But he doesn't seem to be that same player anymore.

If we're going to acquire someone we should pay more for an actual effective tough top 6 winger.

Not 2021 foligno</div></div>

Hall is someone who plays like Galchenyuk with Hagelin’s forechking ability. If you can get a guy like him you don’t really need a hitter.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Howisjulienstillhere</b></div><div>Not sure that gets hall.

This leafs team can be very good but I’d say a physical player in the top 6 is needed. He has a minor injury but nick foligno would make this team very scary. Good size and physicality, solid enough d and very talented forwards. Also your big guns have to step up</div></div>

Thanks for the suggestion. I like Foligno but I just feel Dubas would rather give up a low pick for Hall than a 1st for Foligno. Hall is a lot more of an individual talent, plus they have similar stats in forechecking.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>There are still too many question marks on the blueline and in net for me to 100% say this team is a contender, but coming from the north division... I'd expect them to be the remaining Canadian team. I just question against the likes of Boston, Washington, Tampa Bay, Florida, Carolina, Vegas, Colorado... can they beat teams that are solid through and through?</div></div>

I think if they go into the playoffs with this defence, I wouldn’t be concerned. Everyone except Rielly is good at preventing scoring chances for the role that they play. I do think they will struggle when they play a heavier forechking team. The D will get outworked cuz the forwards don’t like to go back to give them any support.

IDK if the Leafs need to trade for a forward but if they do, Hall would be my target. Good 2 way player & elite forechecker. What’s not to love? He’d be another Galchenyuk.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>I think people forget he’s only playing about 14 minutes a night and barely sees much power play time (our first unit plays like almost 75% of a given power play). I think he’ll get better with time.</div></div>

Agree. I feel if the coach puts him out with Fox more, then his results are going to be excellent. He's similar to Hall, most effective at retreiving pucks down low and playing a cycle game to be effective. Can't do that if you're always stuck in your own end.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gpmack95</b></div><div>Matheson is better than Pettersson</div></div>

IDK about that man. Pettersson is second amongst PIT defenders this season (behind Ceci) in scoring chance differential.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchMarner_16</b></div><div>the habs would pull off this trade and Lafreniere would become a patrik stefan type player</div></div>

The main thing that's gone wrong for Lafreniere this season is his player usage. When he's away from Jack Johnson, Libor Hajek and Brendan Smith, he has a 56% scoring chance share.

Thread: Another Pettersson idea

I don't think you should trade Pettersson if that's all you'll get. Just send Matheson out instead for someone like Colin White, play Riikola and I think your team is complete.

Frederick Gaudreau looked pretty good the last couple of games. Really skilled & smart player. Maybe he could be the 4C with Rodrigues and Angello.

For sure Hall is an elite player, but I don't think he's fills a need in PIT. They can't have Jankowski centering the third line.

I guess you could argue that Hall plays on a poor possession driving team, therefore, that’s the only reason why his analytics are outstanding.

I mean, Hall has been demoted to the 4th line with sheahan the last couple of games. Clearly the Sabres don’t see value in him so they won’t trade him for much.
