Barrie for Hammer I guess?
I think Barrie would be our best option on the PP, but I don’t see him as a huge upgrade on Hanifin/Andersson/Gio.
Hamonic is okay 5 on 5, but the thing people always overlook with him is that I don’t think there is a better player on the PK in the entire league.
Doesn’t make a ton of sense for that reason but who knows.
Isnt Hamonic injured?
If not, A Hamonic/Barrie swap has been discussed on the Leafs board as well. I think its something we would want to do
If the Leafs can grab Severson/Manson, can definitely see Barrie moved, maybe even to Carolina if they’ll send our first back.
I imagine we wouldn’t accept any less from them since they are in the playoff race.
Vegas could be an interesting fit
Makes zero sense for the Leafs to trade Barrie unless they (as an organization) feel this isn't their year and want to stock up for next year. Otherwise, it makes no sense.
Holden for Barrie
Too much logic broBarrie has been a terrible fit on the Leafs but he still holds trade value. He would get a 1st, 2nd and a couple of warm bodies type return or its player for player. The Leafs would then use some of those assets on a defenseman that is a far better fit.
All the people saying they are giving up makes me laugh. They are being very smart about this.
They have an asset that has value in the open market that is of greater value to their team. move that asset and add an asset that is of better value in that spot.
Ok, Barrie for Merrill + 3rd.Holden has been below mediocre this year. Vegas 1st needs to be included if thats the case
