Severson+ for Nylander

Toronto gets a top 4 soon to be 24yr old signed long term to a fair contract, NJ gets a young forward they desperately need who would be signed long term

You're not going to fleece Toronto like you did to Edmonton in Larsson for Hall trade because Dubas isnt dumb as Chiarelli.

 

[Motte and Bailey]

“Mr. Dubas, will you be able to get a good return for Willie Nylander if you trade him?”

“We can and we will”

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

how is that a fleece? Its not even in the same realm as Hall and Larsson

 

[vippe]

Oh, since when is he officially on the block? :O

Wonder if something is going down soon-ish

Are you a bot? Jk

 

[Leaf Fans]

The title is misleading. A Friedman source who was not Dubas claimed he was on the block. That is not official.

Nylander is like 2 tiers down from league mvp level. Severson is Larsson level.

I’m not saying it’s equal. But it isn’t Edmonton New Jersey bad.

60pt winger sweeptakes, thread 14.

I think Toronto is getting hosed in the trade. 2 weeks is too short.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Funny that leaf fans thought they could keep their big 4.

Tavares signing prob cost them nylander

 

[TT1]

What happened to him not moving Nylander? I'm sure teams are lining up to trade assets for a soft, disgruntled, 60 point winger who wants 8M+ on his RFA contract.

They still have them. No one has gone yet.

Doubt he signs w/o full ntc

Soft? How many truly “hard” players are left in the NHL?

There are plenty.. you don’t have to be big and strong to be hard. For example, Elias Pettersson is a tough hard nosed player who would battle anyone for the puck and he’s only 170 pounds.

Leafs can't offer him ntc he's not eligible

You think he will sit untill he is 27 and becomes a UFA and is eligible for for an ntc? He will sign/ traded (sign) long before then.

Nylander plays as hard as Petterson.

 

[lifelonghockeyfan]

Severson was bad in the the 6-1 lose to the Leafs. Friedman didn't provide any new info. GMs talk all the time about availability of players, there are "soft" offers on virtually any player.
Trading Nylander for trade value isn't the issue. He's very tradable if signed to a reasonable contract. It's getting him signed to the reasonable contract either by Leafs or his new team is the continuing issue.

I would say it’s in the same ball park in terms of biting the Leafs in the ass long term lol

I walk with Elias...but he got dumped on his head a few weeks ago on a pretty routine play, maybe you missed it.

RFA years can't be formally trade protected.

Fake news. The Leafs would never give Nylander 8M+, regardless of their salary cap situation.

I think Elliot was referring to is there any team willing to pay him more than Pasternak.
u gott a sign the kid before u try to get value,who knows maybe u take an unptrotected 1st round pick ,save the cap space and maybe try your luck and aquirre a piece later that may bring u an element u can control on your terms .
leafs have cap space ,in about a month some teams may be throwing in the towel.
