<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KSIxSKULLS</b></div><div>Guess that's fair, but he looked awful last season. I'd rather take a 1st round pick over a 22 YO defender that isn't playing NHL games, but to each their own</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GenXHockey</b></div><div>He looked good last season. Shutting down cycles and was great at separating guys from the puck. Little bit of spurgeon peaking through. Now he’s working on his offensive game again.

But like I said it’s a vet thing this year. We have him to jump in if needed though.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KSIxSKULLS</b></div><div>Not sure why you have to troll, but Sandin and Liljegren are both multiple years after their draft class and have played multiple seasons pro and neither 100% have looked like they will be full time NHLers</div></div>


Sandin is the same age as Romanov and has looked much much better in the NHL.

Him and Liljegren are the Marlies best two defensers ... and might be the best d-pair in the AHL.

But Toronto has 3 NHL caliber LD ... and aren't going to ruin their 19 year old prospects for no reason.

Why do you think <strong>Mete</strong> is on waivers after years with Weber?
Why do you think <strong>Juulsen</strong> left on waivers in his early twenties?
Why do you think <strong>Galchenyuk </strong>could never reach his potential?
Why do you think <strong>Kotkaniemi</strong> was better as a rookie than now?
Why do you think <strong>Poehling</strong> went from NHL star to an AHL career?
Why do you think <strong>Sherbak</strong> was lost on waivers in his early twenties?

If you think every prospect <strong>SHOULD </strong>be in the NHL as soon as its possible than you're just as bad as Bergevin.

<strong>Jake Bean</strong> was drafted 13th overall the same year as <strong>Mete </strong>and just got an NHL role this season, despite dominating the AHL for years.

And guess what ... he's playing amazing in the NHL this year ... and he's still waiver exempt ... meanwhile, Mete has lost his NHL spot and might be a waiver claim tomorrow.

Hopefully Romanov and Caufield don't suffer the same fate as every other Montreal 1st rounder ... but they're getting sent down the exact same path ... so who knows?

<strong>Just so we're all on the same page:</strong>

Many upcoming <strong>1st</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.
Many upcoming <strong>2nd</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.
Many upcoming <strong>3rd</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.
Many upcoming <strong>4th</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.
Many upcoming<strong> 6th</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.
Many upcoming <strong>7th</strong> round picks have played <strong>zero</strong> hockey games in 18 months.

Outside of the top 10 overall ... this draft is going to be a complete gong show.

<strong>Different teams will have the exact same player ranked 30th / 90th / 180th.</strong>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>Jarmo has been making out like a bandit this deadline. Absolutely ridiculous that he got 2 1sts, a 3rd, and a 4th for Foligno and Savard as rentals. </div></div>

Jarmo also had his own rental spree at the 2019 deadline.


<strong>Giving up:</strong>

Round 1 Pick (2019)

Round 2 Pick (2020)
Round 2 Pick (2021)

<strong>While rejecting:</strong>

Round 1 Pick (2019)
Round 1 Pick (2020)

Thread: (CBJ/TOR) - Nash for 2022 conditional 7th round pick
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>This is going to be a bit unpopular because the Leafs fanbase is probably bigger than the Jackets fanbase, but here it goes ...



Riley Nash just recently suffered a possibly season-ending injury.

He will either be a minimal contributor on the 4th line or a healthy scratch in the playoffs, assuming he's even healthy by then.



His cap hit and salary at 2.75 million is large enough to be considered a cap dump.

Columbus gets all that money off the books, dumps it on Leafs nation and get a draft pick out of it.

To me, that's a win.


I voted for Columbus.

Like if you did too!</div></div>

All this tells me is that you don't understand the CBA.

The Leafs gained cap space at the deadline.

Columbus saved money but not cap space.
