1st and Tim Liljegren for Miles Wood.. Marner Mathews Wood. Sandpapper physical fast and pesty woood
It is for me. Nylander is a perimeter player. A poor man's Gaudreau. He's a good offensive player, but Tkachuk is unique. A 2-way power forward and pest who can score 30 goals. Name me another player in the league like that.

our 1st and a top prospect for a guy who averages under 30 pts a year... not good asset management1st and Tim Liljegren for Miles Wood.. Marner Mathews Wood. Sandpapper physical fast and pesty woood
Wood doesn't return the equivalent of 2 late 1st come on...1st and Tim Liljegren for Miles Wood.. Marner Mathews Wood. Sandpapper physical fast and pesty woood
has baggage... not a desired commodityYeah he definitely makes some sense
Toronto being all in sounds like a way to get Toronto to watch their trade deadline day coverage.
All of the Leafs players "benefit from playing with elite players", but no one ever actually says who these elite players are. Matthews loses polls to Eichel because he's not that great but gets to play with elite players. Marner loses polls because he's a soft, one dimensional winger who plays with elite players.The valuation of Leaf players is a bit ridiculous in this thread. Hyman a 30 goal scorer and Nylander isn't a perimeter player. Hyman is a product of the players he plays with. He's a gritty 10-15 goal bottom 6 player. Chiasson scored 25 goals playing with McDavid. Hyman had 10 goals in the season he didn't play with a top 10 player. Nylander benefits from playing with elite players too. Put Gaudreau with Tavares or Matthews and he's well over a PPG every season.
Good lord.I like Tkatchuk but liken him to a slightly more glorified Zach Hyman.
The difference between him and Nylander is not Amirov and a 1st, especially when Nylander is the superior player in actually driving the play versus Tkatchuk is more of a beneficiary. That's just my opinion, to be honest.
1. There are maybe 3 centers in the same sphere as Matthews. Crosby, McDavid and Mackinnon. The Leafs have a top 4 forward. Marner could be called a top 20 forward without any controversy. Tavares is a top 15 center without controversy. Nylander is a good offensive player. I'd call him a 1st line player, but not an elite player. Hyman and Mikheyev are good third liners.All of the Leafs players "benefit from playing with elite players", but no one ever actually says who these elite players are. Matthews loses polls to Eichel because he's not that great but gets to play with elite players. Marner loses polls because he's a soft, one dimensional winger who plays with elite players.
You can't quite get to who these elite guys are.
Bracco is under contract with Carolina, so if we could set a precedent of trading other team's players. Absolutely, it would break the machinery.Does a Bracco + for Kerfoot offer overload and explode all of the trade machinery?

That's the question every team is going to have to ask themselves: are we good enough as it is to make a run to the Cup, we don't care who we get? Or, do we think we need to improve to solidify our chances / avoid a certain matchup right off the bat? Doesn't matter if this is a 56-game season in divisional play and you don't see anyone else until the semis. Winning a Cup this year is still winning the Stanley Cup. If you think you've got a shot at it, you have to take it - and if that means you make a deal to improve your shot at it, you do it.just remember nothing is a given here on the north any of the top four can win this division in the playoffs it going to be a battle and then how do they fair against the american teams in the semmis...
Good lord.
Friedman saying the leafs are in on the best forward is hyperbolic on his part, probably so people tune in.
Leafs cant get anyone with term because it messes up their expansion draft.
As for the best rentals I think its fair to say Ovechkin and Getzlaf wont be leafs.
Hall wont cost a first because he's having a weaker year.
Cup winning teams tend to just work around the edges. My choice for rentals are Laughton, Oleksiak and Ullmark. These guys are doable and wont break the bank.
