[Hockeyholic]

St. Louis declines pretty easily.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Pietrangelo and Barrie are UFA.

 

[Cory Kennedy]

Pietrangelo and Barrie are UFA.

Which means they both need new teams.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Which means they both need new teams.

Toronto could sign Pietangelo for "free"

 

[BeLeafing]

The Leafs aren't trading anything for a guy who is available for free in a month. If he wants to sign he'll sign.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Leafs acquire:
Alex Pietrangelo

Blues acquire:
2020 1st round pick
Alex Kerfoot
Tyson Barrie

Who agrees or disagrees?

So the Leaf s are paying a first round pick, Kerfoot and the rights to Barrie for the rights to Pietrangelo? I can't see that happening.

 

[Dion TheFluff]

so the Leafs are gonna trade their 3rd line center and a 1st round pick for a guy they can sign in 3 1/2 weeks?
Make sense...

 

[BleedBlue14]

Blues don’t really have a use for Kerfoot, not Barrie.

Toronto shouldn’t trade for a UFA.

The premise of the Blues taking on cap space to help someone else sign Pietrangelo is certainly as much of a head scratcher as the Leafs trading a first along with Kerfoot and the rights to a different d man. for the rights of a UFA

The Leafs aren't trading anything for a guy who is available for free in a month. If he wants to sign he'll sign.

This, It's becoming so how fans think they're going to get pending UFAs by giving up picks/prospects just to sign certain UFAs.

 

[Not Canada Drai]

Neither team does this I would imagine. I guess the Blues do it if Peter/Angelo want to test FA for sure.

 

[Fatass]

Leafs are not, or should not, give up 15OA for Pietrangelo’s rights.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

UFA's have the trade value of a 5th. This makes no sense

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

OP nailed this one in the title. Absolutely deserves to be mocked.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

NBA fan?

 

[cgc83]

No way leafs do that

If stl even considers dealing Alex P it means they can't sign him to an extension

Counter offer

St Louis
the rights to Alex P
C. Barbashev, Ivan

Toronto
the rights to Tyson Barrie
Andreas Johnsson

 

[Crosscrease14]

Toronto isn't going to trade for Pietrangelo's rights and they wouldn't be worth nearly that much.

If STL is moving his rights he's made it clear he's leaving so they'd have zero leverage

 

[Toronto makebeleifs]

I said it in another thread and I'll say it again, negotiating rights aren't worth much. This is far too much for an unsigned peitro, and far too little for him signed. No deal to be had, if pete hits f/a the leafs will try then. If they strike out there then there's fallback options in tanev, hamonic, et all. The blues also won't deal him as they hold the advantage of an eighth year right up until f/a and they likely intend to use that leverage.

 

[Drew311]

What the hell is this?

 

[Eternal Leaf]

If he's leaving St Louis, he will listen to Toronto's offer anyway.

No need to make this trade.

You can find other (better) deals for these assets if you want to trade them.

 

[A1LeafNation]

WTF is this dumb shitty proposal.

He is a UFA. Dubas would be fired on the spot for that idiocy.

 

[7even]

I certainly feel made fun of

What junk. One of the worst proposals I have ever seen.

Or even better potentially fail to sign. Can’t believe the OP thinks this makes sense

 

[belair]

Which means they both need new teams.

No, it actually means the teams only own their rights until the free agency period begins, which makes them pretty much worthless as trade assets.
