I personally wanna know what our UFA's will get at the trade deadline this year or before. I have my hunches of what some of them are worth but opinions will vary from Leaf fans and rival fans alike. Here's a look at them and a brief description of what i would like to get for them:
PA Parenteau - at the low end I think you could easily get a 3rd for him if his production keeps up, a 1st is out of the question but a 2nd is also possible and if we retained salary or took a ufa contract back you could potentially get a second low end pick perhaps as well
James Reimer - a lot depends on how Reimer comes back from his injury so this could be up for a big debate but i think something revolving around a 2nd is most likely
Shawn Matthias - I think the best that could be obtained here is a 3rd. He's a good forechecker, works the corners well, has decent speed and gets some scoring chances but can't bury many of them
Roman Polak - a typical work pail type of player, has been an improved player under Babcock like many other Leafs this year. I think you could easily get a 2nd and wouldn't rule out a 2nd pick or prospect being included. Many teams will be interested in a player like Polak who can play 20 mins a night and effective on the PK. Wouldn't surprise me at all if the Blues wanted him back
Brad Boyes - He's been okay this year playing with Froese on the 4th line for the most part and also being a healthy scratch at times. In the range of a 4th or 5th rd pick
Michael Grabner - It's hard to say right now what Grabner is worth. He started extremely slow but has come on as of late. As of now you might get a 3rd for him but that could change by the deadline. His production could continue from here or might regress
Nick Spaling - Has been effective on the PK and faceoffs this year but has had injury troubles this and very little offensive production. Might get a low rd pick, could help a playoff team with a team that needs help on pk and faceoffs
Other players on roster that will draw some interest with contracts going forward are Phaneuf, Komarov, JVR, Kadri, Gardiner, Holland and Bozak. Lemme know your thoughts
