Liljegren is not really a top 4 defender. He's only ever there because we lack genuine top 4 RD. While I have advocated for Keefe's firing for years now, he's given Lily ample opportunity in bigger roles throughout the last two seasons. There's a reason he's never been able to crack the top line with Mo, he's not that good.
On a true contending team with a D core NOT comprised of bottom 6 defenders, he's a bottom 6 defender himself.
And as for the "looking for someone to carry McCabe" comment, it's actually McCabe who's carried Lily the majority of this season. Lily has always needed someone better than him to boost his metrics and make him look better than he is.
I'm 100% down to move Lily, but only if it's for a genuine upgrade.</div></div>

I like the idea of Faulk to Toronto - he’s the PP guy they need on the back end and the salary retention is probably needed and definitely helpful. But this feels awfully light for a right handed defender that can play top 4 and put up points. Not to mention I think Steeves is a guy that stays around as a call up guy.
Anything else realistically that St.Louis would be interested in you think? Maybe a Liljegren type player? Or maybe a bit more of a blockbuster that included Rielly for Faulk and Buchnevich?

Lee is a cap dump. Probably takes at least one 2nd round pick just to move him and he wouldn’t play 4th line minutes on Toronto. Nelson is a decent option, but the picks don’t do much. Leafs want a defender in any deal right now - this deal doesn’t have that.

Liljegren has never been a top 4 defender. If he was, the team wouldn’t be constantly looking for a top 4 right handed guy.
You can’t blame Keefe for Liljegren’s poor performance. Keefe gave him tons of chances to take the spot and run with it and he never has.
Liljegren couldn’t crack the top 4 on a defence core with the likes of Brodie, Benoit, Giordano, Edmundson, and Lybushkin. All those guys are #6 defenders at best, but mostly #7 guys all year and Liljegren couldn’t consistently stay ahead of them.
Timothy Liljegren is a #6/7 defender. Argue all you want with your usual incredibly bias opinion, but it still doesn’t make it right.

Farabee Pesce Carrier and Saros
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ujeje</b></div><div>I thought this was the main point and when i proved you wrong, now it's
When has he said he doesn't like small goalies? Just that he didn't have under 6'0 goalie except Dustin Wolf (exactly 6'0) in Flames doesn't prove that. And i bet you he was high on Wolf when he was still the GM of the Flames. Small goalies are rare but they can actually be good, you can ask some older fans about Hasek, Nabokov or Belfour. Or you should remember Tim Thomas from Bruins. All these were 6'0 or smaller, just to name few.</div></div>
Go back and look at the rosters from the Flames teams that he was GM of. Any goalies under 6’0”? Wolf was drafted under Treliving, but never played even though he dominated the AHL. He was drafted in the 7th where a GM listens to his scouts about players but has hardly if ever watched the player play - I’d be surprised if Treliving ever saw a junior game of Wolf’s. Wolf didn’t play on a Treliving team for a reason even though his AHL stats said he was good enough.
If 10 years of a trend of non-small goalies isn’t enough for you then idk what to tell ya.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ujeje</b></div><div>Do you know what's common with Saros, Sorokin, Swayman, Vasilevski, Oettinger?
All these goalies had worse stats this year than last season. So no GM would want them?
What's common with Demko, Bobrovski and even freaking Binnington? Or Hellebuyck 2021-22?
All these had bad last season/worse than their previous season, and bounced back.
It's not about being good years ago, Saros and some others I mentioned have been good for years, one season which wasn't that good ain't gonna change it for a sane GM. Treliving would maybe want healthy Woll, but is that going happen? Most likely he would want that because he's got hands/cap tied with the core 4. He'd be an idiot (might still be) if he would pass on Saros just because he's a bit small and trust his chance to win a cup for a guy who's got 36 starts in three years. Or has he actually mentioned that he doesn't like small goalies?</div></div>
You’re missing my main point… Treliving doesn’t like small goalies. Go find me a goalie that was under 6’0 that he’s had on his NHL roster in the last 5 years.. you can’t. Probably can’t even find one within the last 10 years. When it comes to goalies, size matters.

Farabee Pesce Carrier and Saros
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ujeje</b></div><div>Okay this wasn't as strong season by Saros as i.e 4 previous seasons, that's right, yet he was still voted 7th best goalie in a player/staff survey during a down year. Woll didn't get a single vote btw.
But let's put it this way, Woll has played 36 games in regular season during his whole NHL career with 2,76 GAA and .912%. Saros has played 350 games with 2,63 GAA and .917%. And one could say that the Leafs have been the better team, Preds have barely been playoff team. Saros has been the bonafide starter for the last 3 seasons and 1B for 2 seasons before that where they splitted starts with Rinne. It's a different story to be G2 and play weaker opponents every now and then, compared to be the cornerstone of the team having over 60 starts/season. If it's just as simple as looking sv% you should just acquire Stolarz, he had .925% which was the highest of the goalies who played over 30% of their team games.
Woll might become better than Saros, but there is not a single GM who would pick Woll before Saros to be their starter next season if their goal is to win the cup, and that's simply because right now Saros is the better goalie and more proven. Saros is arguably top 5-7 goalie, Woll is not, at least yet. And this is not any anti-Leafs bias, it's just straight facts.</div></div>
No GM wants a guy that was good years ago. Hockey is about “what have you done for me lately”.. Saros clearly regressed last season so how is that a positive sign? Treliving would take a healthy Woll over Saros. He doesn’t like small goalies. Small goalies are too easy to beat nowadays. Leafs won’t have any interest in Saros.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Woll better than Saros... my guy, Woll was bang average too. Saros was bad the first half of the year, but reverted to Vezina nominee second half of the year. He'd easily be the best goalie in Leafs history</div></div>
actually, no Saros didn't "revert back to Vezina nominee" the second half of the year.
Saros save percentage by month:
October - .915%
November - .880%
December - .911%
January - .906%
February - .926%
March - .905%
April - .904%
League average was .903% this season and Saros finished with an overall save percentage of .906% ... so he had one month where you could say he was elite, how is the rest of that "Vezina nominee"? Not to mention that in the playoff he only had a .900% and Nashville finished the round with something like the 3rd fewest shots per game given up in league history. So he faces less shots in front of a team that was clearly good defensively and still has a below league average save percentage and yet you say he'd be the best in Leafs history?
Small playoff sample size but:
Woll - 56 shots against, .964% and clearly stole the games he played in
Saros - 108 shots against, .900sv% and didn't steal any games
& for the record, here's Woll's month to month stats behind a far worse defensive team:
October - .942%
November - .903%
December - .912%
January - didn't play
February - .938%
March - .884%
April - .884%
Keep in mind his stats dropped when he came back from a serious injury. Despite Woll's last 2 months of poor play because of the injury, he still finished with a higher save percentage than Saros.
So how (besides your own anti-Leafs bias) is Saros better than Woll?

Any Marner trade is more than likely to come with an extension or a real good chance of one soon after otherwise he wouldn’t waive his NMC.. this “rental” theory of Marner is highly overblown on here.
Seattle is a great landing spot for Marner too. Up and coming team that’s still a playoff chance and needs that go to superstar where he could make his legacy. Not to mention it’s a tax free state so even better odds Marner re-signs there.

Look at Treliving’s history.. he doesn’t like small goalies. I’d argue Joe Woll is better and I know Leafs management is extremely high on him he’s just been injured a lot.
Saros was a league average goalie in the regular season and worse in the playoffs. Ain’t no use in overspending to get that.

Treliving has NO interest in a small goalie and WILL NOT overpay to get a highly overrated one. I can almost guarantee that.
Doubt they’re looking at Carrier either - doesn’t fit what the GM wants in a defender. He’s a good player and I think he’s prime for bigger minutes, but too small for Treliving.

Matthew Tkachuk Style Deal Culture Change
The difference in the situation with Matthew is that he wanted out and made it clear he wasn’t signing a contract or playing another game for Calgary. Tkachuk didn’t have a contract at the time and part of the deal was him signing 8 years in Florida which played part in the value of the pieces going to Calgary.
Unless Brady does the same, any team looking to get him is going to overpay. This may be a pretty good fair value deal, but it’s not an overpay.
