<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>Manson isn't worth Robertson and Holl is better than Miller. You have made the defence worse.</div></div>

We can agree to disagree on that. I think this makes the D better and deeper.

I don't disagree. After the fact, I would have given him 1-1.5 million more and signed one less depth player.

Robertson is more of a sure thing than a 25th-32nd 1st

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>faulkmydzingel</b></div><div>So the trade is: Kerfoot, Engvall, Hallander, a 3rd, and a 7th. All for McCann. Man this kid better be lights out.</div></div>

Well, they made the Hallander trade to avoid Seattle taking Holl, which seeing what other RHD got in FA, was the right decision.

I get it. We might disagree on the value of Kerfoot, but whatever the return is, there will be picks coming back. Overall, I think the team depth is much better after these moves.

Are you for real? No value? Give me a break. 2 2nds might be a bit rich, but no value is so far out of touch.

Thread: Opening Night Roster

Problem of putting Hyman and Dermot on LTIR is that you need to clear their cap space before activating them. Who do you trade to add them back to the roster in a month?

Cash. Marleau is owed less than $2 million after July 1, Eaves is owed almost his full ticket. Anaheim is a budget team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Juice</b></div><div>This exact "Orpik" concept has been discussed at length on this forum. It's theoretically possible...but IMO the league would view this as clear cap circumvention and penalize the leafs</div></div>

I don’t disagree but there is precedent. They can’t allow that last year, and then turn around and penalize the leafs the next. They allowed Robidas island for 3 years! Lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Marleau's contract has been talking endlessly. MMC, plus 35, retirement have meaning. Buyout no meaning.</div></div>

He can be bought out but his cap hit counts in full. Arizona gets the full cap hit, but only a low salary. Marleau agrees because he knows he’s coming right back and makes 2 million more in this scenario. Colorado and Washington did it with Orpik last year.

Thread: Deadline Trade with Philly

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Simmonds is going to be overvalued at the TDL. Simmonds and Ferland me thinks.

Buying a one year rental at the deadline, by definition, is almost always a failure (only one team wins the stanley cup). I would be hesitant to make a pitch on the guy every team will want, and the gritty winger who can pot 20-30 on a good contract in his prime, will be the guy everyone wants. I don't think that is enough to get him, and I don't think I'd even want to pay that to get him.</div></div>

I don't necessarily disagree, but you are also getting a dependable shut down guy for next year, and off loading Zaitsev's contract.

Thread: Leafs 2019-20 Cap

Think some of your fillers are low (Rosen, Sparks, Ozhiganov), but I think Marner is high so balances it out. Like that you made realistic moves, unlike the multitude of Marleau trades we see on here that are not going to happen. Well done.

Pretty good idea, however I don’t believe you are allowed to buyout a 35+ contract.

Thread: Fitting them all in

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>matthewhandy</b></div><div>There is absolutely no way Minnesota or Carolina make those trades, lmao

Also Marner will likely be north of 8.5M depending on how good of a season he has

Matthews will likely be closer to 12 as well, if not over 12</div></div>

Yeah the Minnesota trade isn't likely, I need to add more. Carolina has way too many RHD and Faulk is blocking Fox. It's a good trade. I gave Marner less because it's only a 5 year deal, so no UFA years. Matthews I think is realistic at 11.25.

Thread: Leafs possible lineup

Not far off probably, barring a movement for another RHD. But, biggest issue is I guarantee they don't put Horton on LTIR unless they make a big splash on D and go for it. They want to keep the bonuses from rolling over into 19/20.
