Boy, if only Buffalo flipped him for Kadri to work that #2C last year. Oh wait, according to our GM trades are hard.
Incoming: 50 pages of Matthews + Nylander + Marner for the right to ask for Ristolainens services.
Just having a laugh man. No biggie.I'd be very mad if they traded Liljegren. He's been good visually despite his underlying numbers.
Dubas will never win with some people. Doesn't matter what he does, it will always be the wrong move. What shutdown D is available out there who can play top pairing minutes on a contending team? The other complaint was the Leafs are soft. This adds more physicality and size to the backend, and he's a guy who hits.
If Barrie is dealt for some assets at the deadline, and then they replace him with Risto, I don't mind it. Team isn't any worse defensively and they add more size. Another trade can be made after to address the top pair RD.
You think Kadri would waive to go to Buffalo? LMAO
Ristolainen is Phaneuf 2.0 or JJ 2.0, I don't know why Toronto would think he'd solve anything. Especially considering the cost of acquiring him would be significant.

I’ll say this about Dubas, he swings for the fences. Maybe too much really.
There are a plethora of dmen in the league that can give that team exactly what they need. Hell they let Hainsey walk in the offseason. A guy like that, who you preferably don’t run the wheels off of because you have a couple more hanging around.
Kap+ Dermott?
What would it take for hamonic?
