<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeastModeUnknown</b></div><div>One Schwartz is one of the best advanced statistics players out there. Bortuzzo is about a fourth round pick, Thomas is a future star, and what has Ekblad done?</div></div>

Like I said, Schwartz is a free agent to be. He would not be re-signing with Florida. Sure, they could flip him for a 1st at the deadline, but he wouldn't be included in the deal in the first place unless there was an extension in place. Yes, we are very high on Thomas, but he hasn't broken out yet. He means more to us now than he does in a trade to someone else today.

Ekblad is their franchise defenseman.

Doesn't seem like you're trying to read this trade from Florida's perspective at all.

Thread: weegar to tor
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>It's definitely overdone and also wasteful. There is still a bizarre extreme want for any other teams RHD. A small element of Leafs Nation thinks we absolutely are desperate for a big, right handed, defensive defenceman to play with Muzzin in a shutdown role and then trades the guy who did a very good job at last season for literally every other RHD from other teams. Is Weegar better than Holl? Probably, I don't even know, I haven't seen much of him and when the Leafs have played Florida, I never have noticed Weegar. But Holl did a very good job, he is big, he skates well and he's right handed and has awesome chemistry with Muzzin. On top of that, it costs the Leafs 2 million to keep him over losing him, a serviceable bottom 6 player in Engvall and a 2nd all for a more expensive, smaller, RHD that we hope will have the same chemistry with Muzzin. Seems awfully wasteful</div></div>

I don’t even want to criticize those players. I’m sure they’re great depth players to have. I’m just roasting the TOR ACGMs that always seem to include trading away Holl and Engvall. It’s all good fun.
