Thread: Leafs Playoff Ready
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joronto</b></div><div>Thats not my point. Wilson wants to do this. He is not going to leave WSH.</div></div>

ACGM’s: “They’ll never trade him.” “He said he wants to be a *insert team name here* for life.” It happens all the time. I don’t know why ACGM’s feel the need to point this out. Everyone always says the right things, because they need to. Gretzky got traded. John Tavares lied and signed with the Leafs. Kane and Toews won’t be Hawks for life. Auston Matthews says his intention is to sign an extension with the Leafs, but he may not.

This obsessive need to point out that certain players won’t be traded or sign places is one of the toxic traits of ACGM’s. Anything can happen. It’s pro sports and a business, not Sesame Street feelings time.

What happens if Ovi decides he wants to win another cup one more time and requests a trade? You think Tom Wilson will still want to stay? Or if the Caps decide it’s time for a rebuild. Or if the Caps come to Wilson with a contract extension and it’s insulting? Too many factors for anyone to ever say it won’t happen.

Thread: What would it take to get Hanifin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>Ok so a third line player who is over paid with term in Kerfoot, not worth much maybe a third to the right team. A first that should be expected to be pretty late in the draft 3 years away. 2 "good" prospects that will be hard pressed to make it to the nhl, let alone be impact players. Doesn't matter if he's a rental Forsberg is an elite player who Nashville would rather hold onto. You can add all the random prospects and draft picks you want but unless you send back some high end talent in the trade, it will never happen. I'm talking Robertson, Sandin, and maybe amirov but he's such a wild card right now. Then you want them to retain salary with that.
Hanifin trade you have a late first and two B prospects. Calgary needs Sandin back in that deal.
Nashville needs Robertson back for Forsberg.</div></div>

That’s fair. I’d probably send Robertson and a 1st for Forsberg.
