Thread: Lines need a shake up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LetsGoPens69</b></div><div>Wow, I don’t know what the Leafs did in free agency this summer…??

I guess Bunting looks like a bit of a steal but he has no history saying he can keep this up.

I guess Kase has somewhat of a track record but he can’t stay healthy.

Simmons looked washed last season. Engvall is NHL depth at best. Ritchie isn’t a top 6. Although he does bring some size and toughness the Leafs needed in the lineup. He’s just not a top 6 forward. David Kampf, 3C..ouch. And who the F**k is Michael Amadio.??

Kerfoot, meh.

I guess it’s good to see Sandin playing well; and Liljegren. And I like the Mrazek signing. Campbell/Mrazek tandem looks good.

Hopefully Alex Steeves brings something. I liked that NCAA free agent signing.

Leafs need Nic Robertson, Soup, and even joey Anderson to take an NHL roster spot this season and produce. Those bottom 2 lines look awful.</div></div>

lmfao pens fan who probably hasnt even watched a game just trolling around too... clown

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sign_em_up000000</b></div><div>Honestly, Ceci but they wouldn't accept that because they have no need for a 4th RHD especially @ $4.5mill plus the fact that he's a FA and they would want more value in return, which is why he won't be moved unless it's part of a bigger trade.

CBJ hanging on to him is the right thing to do ATM because when in a rebuild it's generally not a good idea to sell low on players unless circumstances dictate otherwise. Also, he's better suited for the RW and we have enough depth there already unless we move one out it doesn't make sense to trade a valuable player from a weaker position to add a player to a position that's already a strength.

Miller ain't waiving to come here his wife is an actress and he's stated for years he wants to be as close to Hollywood as possible, or to put it another way he has a pretty good gig where he's at right now and doesn't want to mess with things plus it's an underpay so Anaheim wouldn't consider it in the first place.

And in the L.A. deal we can't afford to lose Lilly's elc for the next 3 years and he's exempt from the expansion draft so... it's a good idea to keep him especially with the chemistry he and Sandin already have unless it's a Seth Jones/Dumba type of d-man coming back.</div></div>

No one wants Ceci... you would actually need to attach a pick or player with him to even move him. CBJ would want a decently young player on a deal with a solid cap hit for Anderson.. Leafs need a guy who can play a hard style when needed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sign_em_up000000</b></div><div>I've seen plenty of Anderson and know exactly what he brings. Clearly you haven't watched Johnsson play because he brings the same elements only with more offence and way better speed, he's just smaller and not as strong. Anderson may very well have the same points playing with Matthews but it would be because of Matthews whereas Johnsson can drive play himself.

I would love to have Anderson on the Leafs but not at this price, and do you know what those numbers mean? They mean Anderson has played below league average this season meaning you should be able to bring someone up from your minor league team and except better production. It also means right now his value is closer to Ceci than Johnsson let alone adding a pick. This trade is a joke and there's really no other way to put it. It's great and all to have size and toughness but if you can't produce on your own then you become a liability.

At the end of the day they're both middle six wingers who can play up your lineup but Anderson has under-produced all season and they both bring the same element to the game just in slightly different fashions.

I know he was good last year but his stock has dropped considerably this year or to put it another way we aren't paying for what he did last year or what he COULD do beside AM we are paying for what he is now, and this is coming from someone whose wanted to see him donning blue and white for 3 years now. But I do agree the leafs could use his physicality.</div></div>

What do you think would be a good deal for him then? Curious to know

You clearly haven’t watched Anderson play... you put him on Matthews Line and he would have the same amount of points and he just as effective as Johnson. Look at his stats last year. And he brings a physical element leafs need...

why in the world would Marner sign a 3 year deal? it doesn't even get him to FA status. no matter the dollar amount, the guy is not taking a deal for less than 5 years on the term.

5 years at $10.5M is the min - feel free to flag this post for reference.
or I will and just come back and say "i told you so"</div></div>

considering you dont listen to any speculation around Marner....yesterday they said its a 3 year or 5 year deal. 5 year could be around 10, 3 year would be around 8<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mike_Gartner</b></div><div>ok, i may have attempted this in the wrong manner.

"term has nothing to do with it" is all i had to read to understand you have no grasp of contracts.
