Thread: Desmith right now
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>The problem becomes how much UFAs get in the off-season. As soon as one guy gets overpaid...then more players get overpaid.

People asking for Leafs second best prospect for a backup goalie is just laughable.</div></div>

Agreed. I know it's a different sport but the point remains the same look at what Cole's contract did to the market!....glad we didn't get him because it probably would have taken 10 years and $400mill realistically. I'm not saying he isn't great but the Yankees will regret that contract in about 5-6 years and it's getting harder and harder to offload big contracts without giving up substantial prospect capital or eating a bunch of the remaining money which defeats the purpose. And yeah his ask is ridiculous.

Thread: Wild trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>If the wild demand liljegren in a trade after receiving nylander for dumba maybe they aren’t the best trade partner.</div></div>

I get your point of view and like I said, I would like to keep Liljegren too....but they'll want him and this trade checks a lot of boxes for us. We solve our backup conundrum with someone who has term on a team-friendly deal, we get a top pair D for Rielly who's in his prime with term on a team-friendly deal also and we add some much-needed grit with Greenway. They get two right handed RWs who can play in their lineup immediately and a solid RHD prospect who can also step into their lineup right away. We likely have to add a 3rd or 4th as <a href="/users/Paul13" target="_blank">@Paul13</a> said but I think this is a good hockey trade for both sides, like I said you gotta give to get.
