I mean completely different player. Can’t really compare either. McCabe is a shutdown type of dman. Been really good this year. Is physical enough, blocks shots, isn’t a black hole offensively.I’d probably pay a 1st for McCabe at 50% retained but not at his full price.
How big of a upgrade would he be on Sandin?
He would be a solid upgrade for any team his defensive prowess and numbers show that. He won't be a flashy offensive guy but strong defense wins games. @4 million that's cheap.I’d probably pay a 1st for McCabe at 50% retained but not at his full price.

]Absolutely god awful for the Leafs. Putrid.McCabe @ 50% & Domi @ 50% for 1st & Sandin could be interesting, as an impartial fan

OkOh, just wait. He always had those 30-40 game stretches in Buffalo too. The fall is coming.
McCabe was always just so regular in Buffalo -- ~40 games of quality play, ~25 games of "meh, fine" play and then 15 games of abject black hole of suck in all phases.
Forwards are a dime a dozen . You need solid strong defenseman to make a deep run and win. Any team that can run 2 solid pairings plus a better than avg 3rd pairing d-man usually go further. A d what forward besides kane or toews can you trade for and assure your return on investmentI think he ends up in Toronto, there has been a lot of smoke there, enough that I think there might be some fire.
I don't have an issue with the player but I'd rather use that 1st on a forward.
Toronto and Chicago play each other 2 times in next 8 days or something, I wouldn't be surprised if a deal gets struck.
If it does I'd like it to be McCabe and Domi.
Upgrade forward and defense all at once.
Would be funny to see McCabe netting better return than Kane and Toews.$2M would be steal for next 2 years
I think a 1st + solid prospect would be haul Hawks are looking for in that scenario
What about Sandin and 2nd for McCabe@ 50% retained and Domi @50% retained?
I think Domi would be a solid versatility piece and McCabe would probably be the best PKer on the backend/Most physical player
I mean maybe but not giving up Ryan Greene in this proposalPerhaps there's a deal to be struck around Girard + 1st for Chicago assets
McCabe (50%) + Toews (50%) + Ryan Greene or something along those lines. Avs get their 2C that is great on the dot in an otherwise thin market, get Girard replacement for the rest of this season and the next 2 for 2M, and a promising forward prospect to make up for the age gap. Chicago gets a younger D with more potential signed through the next 5 years and a 1st round pick in a deep draft to supplement the loss of Greene. Seems like a win-win
McCabe @ 50% & Domi @ 50% for 1st & Sandin could be interesting, as an impartial fan
Really all depends on what Toews and Kane want to doI doubt they use 2 retention spots on one deal, could be wrong.
If not Greene, then what? Avs would need something more to make it worth Girard + 1st. Maybe they send Malgin and get Raddysh + a pick back? Just spitballingI mean maybe but not giving up Ryan Greene in this proposal
