Thread: Helping Leafs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dutchies</b></div><div>What part of this helps the Leafs? asking for a knowledgeable hockey fan.........</div></div>

They would get cap space from Samsonov. A goalie that has this season played better than Samsonov. They also get 2 very decent puck moving defenceman who are young and have a decent up side. Also they get a physical depth player that has almost the same amount of points as Knies who can play RW, LW, C in all lines if needed. Also Leafs get 3 of these players at -50%. However there is price for this which is 1st and Knies. More importantly all but the goalie are more than just loans. I don't see a reason to loose your first for purely a loan. The leagues cap is tight so this is a solid offer. Looking at your defence Bean and Boqwist would easily be on the 2nd and 3rd pairings. More importantly you would still have over 2mil cap space to acquire a shutdown D what you still need. These additions would most likely make you a real cup contender this season and for next one as well.

Thread: CBJ - Cgy Another Blue Jackets Flames trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>Use your head for something besides hammering nails. The only way it makes any sense for Columbus to trade for either player is if he comes with an extension. IOW they aren't trading for UFAs they're trading for a long term top pair D and/or 1st line center.</div></div>

Still I think Lindy wants to test the FA to get the best value. He has been on a low contract for a long time and in FA he can get 7-10m avv. I think it's going to be Boston who gets him one way or the other. They'll have a lot of cap space next summer, they need him and want him. Hopefully flames can trade him to somewhere before FA starts so he doesn't walk for free. I'll see Hanifin signing to Edmonton or Leafs during the offseason.
