Thread: All in if the two most likely injury candidates are hurt at the TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>teehihl</b></div><div>Hey man i wanna say thank you to you as well. The majority of my interactions on this site have been negative in my short tenure so far. Doesnt seem like a lot of people open to civil hockey talk. More along the lines of bashing everyones ideas.

Im not so optimistic and am not in agreement with a lot of these Leaf rationalizers. I think that this tandem could be disastrous behind their team who doesnt play defense first. Im past the point of trying to talk logic into Torontos mind because if they both dont bounce back in the manor the Dubas dreams of, maybe he will just say f it and roll with them, hoping their team can outscore their problems all the way to another first round exit.</div></div>

I’m kind of rooting for Matt Murray’s Revenge tour lol. But they didn’t get enough retention for the deal to be worth it for Toronto.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logan_Ollivier</b></div><div>I don't think the Islanders have to worry about being in the playoffs race. Their collection 30 plus year old dead cap winger's is going to show their age. Especially now that Trotz and his only defence system are gone. I bet it's going to be a rough season.</div></div>

Interesting . Trotz was the worst coach in the NHL last season , removing him was addition by subtraction</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>Trotz system wasn’t good, it did not alter the trajectory of any defenseman.

Pelech and Pulock would be torontos best defenseman</div></div>

Isles are built around a young d core and high end goaltending. Trotz’s system isn’t the only reason the isles went to back to back ECF’s. Having young d men and good goalies usually makes up for mediocre forwards. I expect them to make it for that reason alone.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>teehihl</b></div><div>Islanders are unlikely to give up Varlamov if theyre in the playoff race. Unless they are given a return they cant refuse, and can add a backup in return via another trade, or a 3 way deal. they have no one to play behind Sorokin. deal doesnt work with them because im willing to bet Samsonov plays better out of the two and new york wont want to take Murray for Varlamov. Equation changes if the islanders bomb before the deadline which i 100% dont think will happen.

Im not familiar with any of the prospects in the other two deals other than robertson so i cant comment on those.</div></div>

Just wanna shoutout the really respectful reply here, especially the last sentence. Great discussion. Agreed about Varlamov, really depends where they are in the standings. I think maybe if Toronto needs a goalie they could grab one of the Seattle goalies when Driedger gets back or maybe a reunion with Reimer from San Jose.
