Hyman + komorov + polak + Moore
and then babcock throws down his clip board and calls Lindon pleading for the canuck job
Hyman + komorov + polak + Moore
but he's just doing what he's always done.
Speaking for Babcock: Absolutle NO on including Hyman!Hyman + komorov + polak + Moore
Maybe that's why? He plays a safe quiet game so I don't notice him?
Last thing this team needs is another Lupul.
Yep, trading for Tanev would be a hilariously bad idea. That so many fans think it’s a good idea is kinda scary.
No he isn't. Hainsey has not business being on the top pairing. Tanev would be much better there.except that Hainsey is better than tanev and pysyk.
Because you don't trade a 1st round pick for Chris Tanev.If we can get him for cheap why wouldn’t we? I’d much rather Zaitsev/Tanev on our THIRD!!!!! pair than Polak or Carrick

HAinsey was awful on the top pair for the penguinsAlso top pair on a cup winner last year, and maybe a top-5 team this year.
Meanwhile, the only time Tanev ever played on a playoff team was back when he was breaking into the league as a bottom pair dman.
Our defence would be the same with tanev injured if that was the case.Except he wouldn't last there. He'd get injured and then your defense is throw into chaos. We need stabilization. We can't sell assets for a player as unreliable as Tanev.

yes but he played like crap when he was on the top pair. they won despite him being on the top pairingAwful? They won the cup with him playing 21+ minutes a night.
Nope.Are you the guy that thinks Polak is one of our good defenseman?
Nope.
I don't mind having him around for depth but he would not be in my everyday line up.
Agreed.
If we did not have tradeable assets beyond Matthews, Marner, Nylander, Reilly, Dermott, Kadri, Zaitsev, ETC... we would not be contemplating this. There is our core we are going to ride with for the next 3-5 years minimum.
But we do...
There are very few teams that are in better position to add than the Leafs.
Not wanting to give up maybe's like Rasanan and speculative draft picks in the late first/second rounds in the position we are in seems overly conservative (to put it as politely as possible) given the position we are in.
I'm with you on this one.27 options and still no option that I like, none of the above.
