I wonder how the negotiations with AM will proceed if the Leafs do that. I can see AM's agent having a blast if the leafs do that...
He produced better in his +1 season than Stanley, and Morrissey by a long shot. His +1 season is with that of elite company.
I'd say Nylander becomes available. Kadri is on a great contract which would be crucial if we signed JT and signed Marner and Matthews in the future. Nylander for a dman of a similar age or younger who's NHL ready and wouldn't require a contract for a few years.Just let me ask this hypothetical question.
The leafs get Tavares....does Kadri become available?
No, his skillset is irreplaceable on the Leafs. Nylander will be traded.
Yeah but we can't get him without trading someone we REALLY don't wanna tradeI'd say Nylander becomes available.

That doesn't make him a blue chip prospect. Andrei Svechnikov and Elias Pettersson are blue chip prospects. Not some 19yo who just got picked in the second round. As I said, please stop using that term.

Durzi produced better than players such as Morgan Rielly, Mikhail Sergachev, and Olli Juolevi in their +1 years. Durzi was a major market inefficiency that Dubas saw. He outproduced every +1 D in the CHL this past season. I'm not saying he's as good as the 2 you stated, but he's still a blue chip prospect. You could say McDavid was a blue chip prospect, does that mean those 2 you listed are not?
"Blue chip players are those who have proven themselves to be among the best at their positions in their respective sports and are more sought after and wanted than other players.[1] They are typically perceived as "can't miss" prospects[2] who are desired by most organizations. Blue chip athletes are likely to have an immediate impact on teams that acquire them[2] and have proven skills rather than speculative or untapped potential."
Unless Durzi makes the Leafs in a top4 role this fall and plays it well, he's not a blue chip prospect. That's what "blue chip" means. There were only two, maybe three or four blue chippers drafted this year.
Elias didn't make Canucks out of camp... Durzi was arguably the best D-Man in the CHL this past season and all the polls and coaches agreed.
Call him what you want but he's a highly touted prospect.

As long as you stop using that term.
Except their top pair isn't all that great. Especially from a defensive standpoint. Andersen was facing like 40+ shots a night last season.
Johnsson - Tavares - Marner defensively > JVR - Bozak - Brown defensively
GSW was fine after they signed KD...
By far. Bozak is horrible defensively.
Poetic.(1x15,900,000)+(8x9,387,500) = $91,000,000 over nine years
Slighty, lol ....
Why not focus on defense instead?
