Thread: Completely Change the defense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan98</b></div><div>Before his injuries, he was on pace to hit 20 goals again... (he still had a lingering injury but got rushed back bc Leaf forwards were dropping like flies)...

And he was also on pace to hit 20 in 3 other seasons (and another one if he didn't go to Calgary in 21-22)...

Although, Jarnkrok won't make the difference between playoffs vs non playoffs, so I can't go bankrupt as you suggest or like when Habs fans realized Josh Anderson is a cap dump</div></div>

You do realize how ridiculous your argument sounds when you say he was on pace to score 20 goals in five 5 different seasons, but didn't accomplish it in any of them, and use that as your logic to state that he will get 20 goals a season going forward now that he is approaching his mid 30's. I am guessing you do, and that is why you tried to deflect the point by bringing up a totally unrelated topic (Josh Anderson who is 100% a cap dump with his current play).

Thread: Completely Change the defense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan98</b></div><div>Jarnkrok is bank for 20 goals (this year, he's not been healthy enough), good enough PKer and can literally play anywhere...

I'd much rather go after Pesce though</div></div>

Not sure what your definition of "bank" is but you do realize that Jarnkrok has hit 20 goals once (1 time) in his career. Even factoring in injuries this year, he is not on pace to get 20 goals this year. He rarely plays the top 2 lines, and Toronto is not a good penalty killing team, so not sure just how valuable he is in that role. He turns 33 before next season starts. Not arguing whether the trade is fair or not, but not sure Jarnkrok is valued as highly as you think he is. If you are "banking" on another 20 goal season from him, you just might find yourself "bankrupt".

Thread: To start the season
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bc44</b></div><div>Its not about the trade team. I literally didnt look at the team i clicked on. Leafs have a cap problem and Jarnkrok is a top 3 trade candidate as he makes 2.1mil. Hes a 10-15 goal scorer and a 30-35 pt guy, there are 7 guys left on the UFA list that have more or similar production to Jarnkrok and he had time with Matthews last season. Again this trade/post has nothing to do with the sharks and more to do with a possible Jarnkrok trade and leaf lines to start the season</div></div>

Your point here supports why other teams are not going to trade for him. Why would a team give up assets when they can pick up a similar player on the UFA list, without giving up any assets and having some control over the term and cap hit. The exact reasons you give why Toronto should trade him would be the exact same reasons other teams would not want to trade for him.
