Thread: 20-21 Leafs

The Manson trade ANA likely rejects, or demands additional prospects/picks

If you're trading for Georgiev its probably better to deal Andersen for assets to use towards the Manson trade and have Campbell and Georgiev split the starting job. That leaves cap space for an upgrade over Perry and/or Spezza on the 3rd line.

Seems like, youre both RFA's, salary cap isn't going up. This is what you get. When the cap goes up we'll have another look.

I mean, I was told no on a Khaira for Dermott trade. If Khaira can be had for a 5th sign me right up.

What? He's a career .915 goalie with a year left on his contract. You really think that needs a sweetener? are you high?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MMXD</b></div><div>lehtonen over sandin</div></div>

I figured Lethonen/Sandin and Liljeren/Bortuzzo could platoon. That way if we have an injury in the playoffs you don't have to play Marincin.

Thread: Marner trade to fix the D

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SlevinKalevra</b></div><div>This year would be okay. Next year would be the issue as Pavs and Rads still have one more year on their deal and we have to pay Miro. Toronto made a mistake paying a winger that much money.

WIth the new TV deal coming and Seattle happening all signs pointed to the cap going up, Toronto got royally screwed cap wise by the pandemic. Not sure if you can really blame anyone. Who could have predicted this when the virus didnt even exist when Mitch signed

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SlevinKalevra</b></div><div>Stars pass. You’d have to take Pavs or Rads to make the cap work</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McRanteskog</b></div><div>TOR needed D, you added 2 but in the process, trades away 2. Still short D.

Sandin (being a rookie) and Lehtonen (adjusting your first year in NA hockey) could be a disaster.

Not to mention one injury and this thing could fall apart</div></div>

Theres 5M in cap space to bolster the roster. This is a good lineup to start the season, you make adjustments from there.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>If Marner has value then don't just throw him away for that garbage package. He won't be moved anyways.

For what Kapanen and Dermott cost, Tampa could just sign Cernak.

Holl is still a serviceable NHL d-man and just signed a new deal. He'll be staying</div></div>

Klingberg is a solid top RHD and Gurianov has fantastic speed that can catch defenses off guard. Paired with the cap savings I see it as a solid package

Thread: Win the lottery trade Mitch

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Seider53</b></div><div>Fair enough, what logic are Leafs fans using to rationalise a Lafreniere lottery win not negatively affecting parity?</div></div>

Leafs got screwed when the salary cap was introduced. I couldn't care less about parity, I want my team to win. Simple as that. Leafs win, HRR goes up, teams get more money, salary cap goes up. Whats good for the Leafs is good for the league. They already keep half the small market teams in the league afloat with equalization payments.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Seider53</b></div><div>Just curious.

Nope.

Thread: Thoughts

I mean yeah the Leafs have Marner and Nylander but Laf could be anything, he could even be as good as Marner or Nylander!

This trade is essentially the Leafs waving the white flag on their current core and decimates their top 2 lines. Not a chance that deal gets made.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>MN would only be interested in Dermot if they trade Brodin.

They would have to trade about 600 left-shot wings to be interested in Johnsson.</div></div>

Part of the reason I said MIN might not be the ideal target, but the package coming back is probably about right.

Thread: Mango for RHD

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>The idea is to keep Dermott and not pursue Roy.</div></div>

I'd rather have Roy as a natural right D at 700k than Dermott playing his off side at around 2M. I like Dermott a lot, he's a very underrated neutral zone defender, but he's a moveable piece if the return includes a true RHD

Thread: Mango for RHD

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>Dermott would be a good fit, cheap rfa who’s ready to take a big step forward. Can play either side. Johnsson being a bit older and expiring as ufa I could see you not being interested in.

Personally I would keep Dermott and pair him with either muzzin or Rielly.</div></div>

Mango has a couple years before UFA status.

With Rielly, Muzzin, Sandin, Lethonen, Holl and (maybe) Roy, I don't see a roster spot for Dermott. Unless you move Holl instead. But Holl doesn't have the same trade value and looked good with Muzz this year
