Thread: Next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Explain why I would be? We have a lot of LHD to develop to see what we have in them, and our 1LD spot is locked up long term. Is he a good player? Sure, when he's healthy. Is he going to help the Ducks do anything over the remaining two years of his contract? No, most likely not.

We don't need more veteran presence on the D, half of them are. We don't need a 2LD from outside the organization, and we certainly don't need to be tying 5.6 mil up for the next two seasons.

Oh, but see, Toronto DOES need to dump cap, and there's what, 4 or 5 teams who can realistically take Muzzins contract? You see the miscalculation you Leafs fans are making is assuming Muzzin should be as valueable to us as he is to you. He is massively valueable to you, he's not worth the 5.6 million to us, because he doesn't get us anywhere. But the cap space he does occupy, that's VERY valueable to you. That's the ability to resign Sandin, and the cap space to go and pick up a rental at the deadline to try and break the curse.

You are buying 5.6 mil in cap space for the next two years, that's why you are sending the draft picks, or a prospect we like, with Muzzin. Or you can try calling one of the other teams who can take his contract without sending cap back the other way, but they will tell you the same thing.</div></div>

You are not going to develope your good young prospects into top NHL players if you do not surround them with quality veteran leaders like Muzzen.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gary_gobbler</b></div><div>Oh wow that's a bad take my friend.. just because someone does bad in one of the most toxic franchises doesn't mean their automatically bad their entire career. I heard this EXACT same thing about hyman last year and he had a career year this year lol. Same with Ceci, played in a toxic franchise with to much pressure on the players, one bad play and they get ran out of town. Is Val nichushkin horrible because he played bad on the stars? Nope. Don't try and put your two bits in on a team you know literally nothing about, it's embarrassing for you. Don't compare a players play from 3 years ago on a completely different team. Campbell struggled after an injury, but I guess signing a goalie with 5 wins last year is gonna work great for you. Yes we do need to clear cap space, but this trade makes absolutely no sense, and holls name shouldn't even be mentioned in a trade with puljujarvi, just because it's good for the Leafs does not mean to benefits the other team. Can you send me a reliable source saying there's gonna be a one for one trade involving puljujarvi and Holl? and even if this trade was to happen (obviously would never because ts ridiculous) then what do we do with holl? Run him or Barrie as a 7th d and waste cap? And we then have a MASSIVE hole on our right wing.

That comment is actually baffling, use your head, idiotic comment. I also think you're forgetting we won 2 rounds with a 40 year old Mike Smith, focus on your own team when you know nothing about others.</div></div>

Hyman had a good year but you might not be saying the same thing for the last half of his contact but Bunting had a better year and at less than 1/5th the contract value.

I actually have always liked Ceci and he was dumped on in Toronto after being a scapegoat in Ottawa which was a terrible team.

So you are planning to hold on to Puljujarvi after he obviously wants out of Edmonton for being totally missed managed by the Oilers and just signed a contract only to faciliate a trade out of Edmonton?

Beating both the Kings and Flames were two of the weaker teams in the NHL Playoffs if want to be totally honest.
