Thread: MSL is pushing for Garland and trying to convice Hughes to make it happen
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>future_gm</b></div><div>Your guy isn’t better than Armia. Garland has 3yrs left at 5M. Armia has 2yrs left at 3.4M. If we didn’t have too many NHL caliber forwards Armia would have probably matched Garland in term of points so basically 3. The reality of it is that Garland value has hit rock bottom. Your reasoning doesn’t make sens, you’re telling me a team will take on his 4.9M cap with 3 yrs left without sending a dump back to help y’all make space for a RD? Garland is in the same category of Mantha and Armia. He isn’t better.</div></div>

Garland has considerably more value than Armia. There are other teams that have interest in Garland, the same can't be said for Armia.

Thread: Retooling
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fangm</b></div><div>This site is so interesting. When the leafs make a trade its always an overpay so they MUST be worth way less when they get moved. When a team buys a player from the leafs (like Sandin) it's always an overpay so when a similar player Lili wants to be moved it MUST be for way less.

When a player gets traded with a similar contract to a leafs target (Karlsson) then it was way underpriced so when they try to get Weegar they MUST pay 2x the price.

Great logic here. EVERY NHL GM is stupid and wrong, their trades make no sense, the real arbiter of true value in trades is audiodave and his merry band of capfriendly friends.

Honestly I don't know why we even have NHL GMs you should just be responsible for trades since you are the only one who knows anything about hockey.</div></div>

Teams overpay at the trade deadline, it's not just Toronto. In this case Toronto was willing to overpay for McCabe because another first round playoff exit was not acceptable. Vancouver is in a very different position than Toronto was last season.
This site is all about us hockey fans expressing our opinions. If you can't handle someone else having a different opinion than yours maybe you should find something else to do.
