Thread: #1 D-man
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>hazard</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Larkinisking</b></div><div>:laugh :laugh Scraps for Ekhlom try one of Marner/Nylander at the very least Ekholm is one of the better young D men in the league and wont be cheap.</div></div>

Not even close to scraps lol. Leivo is a proven NHL scorer which is what Nashville needs, and will slot in nicely on any line. Carrick is a great offensive young d-man, who will flourish with Subban as his partner. Rosen was thrown in to sweeten the deal, along with picks. Nashville might also ask one of JVR or Komorov as well tho.</div></div>

Leivo is not a proven scorer. If he was, he would be in the lineup every day and on the first 2 lines. Carrick has some potential to be a good and reliable 5/6 defensemen. That's it. Let's not say he's worth more than he is. Rosen is in the minors because his skating and 1st pass isn't up to the NHL standards yet.


I posted this exact trade yesterday, however I gave up Marner. Marner's future potential for a consistent 2/3 defensemen who is signed at reasonable contract through 2021/22.
