Thread: Eichel Trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BuFfaLOFaN</b></div><div>Eichel is loooots better than PLD and would demand almost double his value, PLD won't ever come close to the level of play Eichel has reached, be also won't be throwing away games and putting in no effort which would lower his value.</div></div>

I see your point. I think the salary cap issue is more important than you are giving it credit for. 10 million in means salary will have to come out for any team that would hope to get Eichel. I could be way off though. I do appreciate the constructive commentary, thanks again!

One Toronto fan's opinion is not mine. But thank you for the comment. I agree, Buffalo won't trade him.

Thread: Do It

This team is bonkers and your trade is pretty good value, even though Pens fans won't agree. If you don't mind a few points:
1. Tuukka needs a better 2nd to platoon with. Halak makes this possible and you will have to spend more there.
2. Landeskog probably gets more than 7.
3. WHy break up the top line of Mac, Landeskog and MIkko? Leave that filth alone and give Crosby Kadri on the wing. It spreads out the talent!

Fun scenario, great work.

Thread: Eichel Trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BuFfaLOFaN</b></div><div>They definetly won't lose value if it's forced because more than one team will want him, it will be bidding war.</div></div>

Fair assessment. You might be right. We just saw this with PLD. A #1 center with tons of potential on a good short term contract nets a 40 goal scoring winger and a decent piece. I think we just disagree on the value of Eichel. He is not getting you an equal #1 center plus 4 firsts plus 2 top prospects. In the flat cap era money in needs money out. To prove my point, if I throw in another 1st and NIck Robertson and Rasmus Sandin you would still say no. Which would go to show your valuation is, in my opinion too high. BUt its all just fun, so thanks for commenting!

Thread: Eichel Trade

Fair question. I don't think EIchel and Matthews are on the same level, but that isn't really the issue. If EIchel wants out this is pretty good value. If Buffalo has their hand forced, which is the only way they trade him, then you're going to lose the trade. Thanks for the comment and cheers!

Thread: Rangers Leafs Switcheroo

I have a concept for a trade between the Leafs and Isles for Pulock, maybe I won't post it, I don't want to create animosity. I just like playing around with Leaf trades.

Thread: Cernak Offer Sheet and Weegar

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>connorcieminski</b></div><div>Totally agree. With both of the teams tight to the cap and Tampa needing to re-sign Cirelli, Sergachev, and their entire right side, I'm just not sure how much the Leafs would have to offer him to not have Tampa match. I'd rather give up 1-2 picks in an offer sheet compensation than give up Dermott+ in a trade.</div></div>

We are on the same page with this one. Let's put it another way. You can have 2 Cernaks or one Pietrangelo for the same price. The risk is entirely on Pietrangelo not aging well into the contract. I'm taking 2 Cernaks (or one Cernak and one Weegar as you put it).

Thread: Rangers Leafs Switcheroo

Trade Marner and it works. Of course Rangers don't do this and neither would Leafs, too risky to trade Marner for what may never be as good as him.

Thread: Parayko

Your value is correct and that is why both St Louis and Toronto fans say no. Nylander for Parayko and maybe a second to even out the term. Its a painful trade from both sides nobody will make.

Thread: Lehner to leafs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>I don't think Lehner is a good option for Toronto. This market is not for all players and I feel Lehner falls into the category of bad fit. The market is tough and only certain types of players can handle that.</div></div>

Valid point. There's enough options that Lehner is really just a space filler for a high end goalie in this scenario.
Thank you for your input!

Thread: Lehner to leafs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Barilko14</b></div><div>I think Andersen is likely moved, but there are approx. 12 starting options available as UFA or through trades.

With approx. 8 spots open. Pretty doubtful 1 yr of Andersen is moved for the 13 OV pick, when other options are available.

It's higher price than the Leafs paid 4 yrs ago.</div></div>

You could easily be right here. I tend to see it the other way though. If Carolina could have easily and cheaply solved their goalie issues they would have done so. With internal cap, the fact that Freddy only requires 1 million in real dollars after signing bonus there's serious value. PLus he wasn't a top ten goalie when they picked him up for a low first, now he is.
Or you could be right and I'm overvaluing.

Something like that I agree, probably less term though.

Perhaps. If you look objectively, you get a young 20 goal scorer on a solid contract.

Top 10 goalie in the nhl, maybe need a sign and trade but the value is there.

You're probably right. Just wanted to explore the scenario. I could have bumped him to 6 or 6.5 though.

Thread: Blockbuster Blues Trade - Thoughts

I agree with the sentiment of others here, there is no trading Parayko. That being said, a fantasy trade for him requires the Leafs GM to lose and offer a painful trade. Pieces that you really don't want to give up like Nylander and Robertson and Sandin would have to be part of an overpayment you would never make.

I agree. And that is exactly why they have not been able to move Jonny out of Calgary and will be unimpressed with the return for him if they pull the trigger.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>User_Name_19</b></div><div>*sigh*

I wish...

But I'm pretty sure you could trade Tkachuck for Connor fricken McDavid and Calgary would still riot. I believe Brad Treliving will saw off his own limbs and eat them before he trades Tkachuck.</div></div>

Everything you say here is true. Marner could win an Art Ross and is the far better player in this trade. In these fantasy scenarios you have to give to get or you're just building an all star team.
