Value of: Carlo to Toronto

[Ziggdiezan]

Thats fair. I can say that if there was one fan base that could smell a #1D its Boston. Baring injury, I just don't see how he doesn't become one. He just oozes everything you look for. Best young talent IMHO to join the Bruins since Bergeron.

Agreed he is very likely to a be a #1 I'd just like to see him without Chara which we will see the season after the upcoming one.

Actually, its very possible THIS season you see Chara and Carlo back together and Moore/McAvoy being a pairing. Not for sure, but I think they want to give Carlo a chance to grow other parts of his game after a season of baby sitting Krug.

edit: of course in that scenario its unclear which pairing is the #1 pairing... which I think might be the wise course of action in a division with TB and Tor.

Carlo aint going no where period. A bruin for life. What a steal by Donny in the second round. He is a mini version of Tyler Myers.

 

[Notsince67]

I feel like it is a little too early to call a defender a #1D when they have only played 63 regular season games.

Lots of other defenders get crucified if you call them a number 1D without like 2-3 seasons of high level play.

Not saying he can't or won't be a number 1D but I'd like to see a season or two more first

I agree with this McAvoy really good but he needs to at least have to deal with a puck in the face once to start making these proclamations

 

[Tavares to Marner]

Boston and Toronto helping each other out LOL

Double negative:

"Carlo is not leaving Boston."

That's not a double negative

Speak in positives. Easier to remember.

Carlo is staying in Boston.

Leafs do have a high school level defence.

Etc.

 

[Revelation]

Bruins probably favorably deploy Moore to pump him up to Leddy/Stralman levels and trade him for a good haul next year or the year after while keeping Carlo around.

 

[SnizzNasty88]

Quite hilarious to see people, and especially Bruins fans, are still drinking the Brandon Carlo Koolaid...this guy is absolutely atrocious and more so whenever he plays against the Leafs. What an absolute dud LOL. Most overrated young defenseman in hockey and its not even close. Would have moved him for Landeskog faster than a heartbeat, can't believe Sweeney declined that

..but better than half the league??

 

[Sparksrus3]

If you trade for Carlo just remember he still has to
answer for Santino. There is only one question. Was it Tattaglia or Barzini ?





Ans - it was Barzini

Good enough to average 20 minutes a night over his 1st two years in the league on a top 5 team in GA and wins. Lol.

Also 16th most PK TOI for all skaters on the second best Pk team over that time.

That’s positive thinking anyway!

 

[Brock Radunske]

Nylander or dont bother picking up the phone

Wasn't disappointed.

Carlo is the first negative...lol

 

[Pyrophorus]

Facts do exist.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

So because Carlo got burned, while being only 21, he's terrible. But Gardiner, being older, gets burned, he's still a great Dman. Got it, Leaf fans.

Lidstrom got burned on Borschevsky's series goal-what is he?

If a defenseman makes a poor play once they are clearly garbage.

Clearly, beer league worthy

Well what do you expect? Someone siggested the leafs get a top 4 d with a lot of upside left from Boston. The obvious ask is Nylander. 60 point winger with upside left too. Nobody went silly season and asked for Marner.

what exactly do you think a 21 yr old, 6'5 defenseman who has played a shut down role for 2 years in the top 4 of a defense that finished 8th and 3rd in GA cost?

He's also the top pair D on the PK, averaging 2:47 per game, behind only Chara

If you think its less than a 20G/60PT unsigned winger, then I guess Leaf fans are gonna keep living up to the stereotypes.

You guys didn't miss a beat without him in the playoffs, he's a dud get over it..
