Thread: Depth Trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockey44</b></div><div>Strongly disagree. Caligula has been playing top line and he isn't worth more than a third-round pick. The Leafs need defense and they need to dump cap so they have no leverage on any cap dump deals. Especially when it won't cost them any cap. <strong>Forsling is a depth player with top six potential</strong></div></div>

So, exactly what I said then? .. He's a bottom pair guy with not much more upside. Brown is worth more than that. Brown has a history of scoring when played higher in the lineup. Caggiula doesn't. Brown would probably easily hit 20 goals playing with DeBrincat and Strome which would increase his value.. that's a buy low, high reward for Chicago that Toronto will see and decline pretty quick. Toronto's leverage? ... Multiple teams will be lining up to get Brown, he's more of a cap casualty than a cap dump. Milan Lucic is a cap dump, Brown can actually still play and only makes $2.1M. Toronto doesn't need another mediocre left handed d-man. If they're looking at defensive help, they need a right shot. Edmonton already offered up Matt Benning for Brown at the deadline., Benning is better than Forsling and is right handed. Toronto declined.. why would they take a less offer for him when they know they can get better? The least they'd take from Chicago is probably a 2019 2nd round pick plus another mid round pick, and that's being a little generous
