<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>And can get either for way less than a top 5 winger</div></div>
I hear a lot of TOR fans prefer to trade Marner and use that on defence & goaltending. This would be it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>Is there some sort of major extortion scheme going on here? Because there is no universe where Graves and Jarry get anything close to Marner.</div></div>

I feel Treliving will be desperate to make changes, Toronto needs a defender especially with Brodie expiring, and they need a goalie to play alongside Woll.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>why would PIT trade anything for a guy they can't resign that isn't worth his value?</div></div>

Probably to get rid of the sieve and the guy that has 35 points in 67 games with another 4 years left.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mikael_Smith</b></div><div>Marner for a massive cap hit okay player and a decent goalie?</div></div>

He would love Rakell tbh, he is very much a Domi/Bertuzzi type player.

TOR needs a goalie and for a long time.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>imawesome</b></div><div>Marner is getting massively undervalued here. Even if he's in the last year of his contract he's still a 95 pt player. That's worth WAY more than a meh goalie and a meh winger, both of which could easily be a cap dump as soon as next year</div></div>

Fair enough, but I just think knowing Treliving's track record, he'll be desperate to get a goalie.

And he definitely like Rakell, even if he's 32, but he fits the profile of players he's been acquiring at forward (Domi, Bertuzzi) who are great in transition, great at forechecking and can score goals.

Maybe they wouldn’t but I would have traded him for a bag of pucks. I’ve wanted him out since the 2021 debacle.

Fair, I guess without the Sergachev injury TBL don’t need a LHD anyway, they need a RD behind Cernak.

I am not a believer in Jarry, the guy has lost his spot to Nedeljkovic and makes 5x5.

Well Carter for Samsonov is essentially cap dump for dump.

Graves would be good for Toronto because they need defencemen, and Jarry is a top goalie.

Thread: My Hindsight 2018-19 Team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>The flaw in your plan is that Buffalo did not want Aston Reese. They were attracted to the goal scoring potential that Sheary had. At the time they saw a potential 20 goal man they could get for peanuts because Pittsburgh needed cap space. What’s funny is despite the fact that he didn’t score 20 goals Buffalo still won the trade because they gave up next to nothing and got useful players that you couldn’t afford.</div></div>

Obviously in hindsight Sheary is better than ZAR but at the time, ZAR was coming out of college averaging a goal per game. I believe that he was on an ELC, he would have been more enticing for Buffalo to take on as a sweetener for Hunwick.
