LeBrun: LeBrun and Jamie Noodles Maclennan (overdrive): Trades Comin'

Leafs can do 1st+Andersen for Gibson

 

[treple13]

This is the perfect season for the leafs to go all in imo.

The canada division playoffs should be relatively easy for the leafs... and they should be heading into the later rounds healthy.... adding a little more weapons up front(or physical depth in your middle 6) could be the move that puts them above.

For the Leafs, definitely, but it's probably true for the other North division teams as well. All of them have to like their chances better without a true heavyweight in the division.

Leafs can do 1st+Andersen for Gibson

Ducks would never do that. Anderson is a pending ufa while Gibson has years of control left. Plus he's markedly better . A late first doesn't bridge the value gap.

 

[Seatoo]

I think Pearson would be a great fit for the Leafs, the Canucks could easily retain as well, plus, our GM trading is the equivalent to Dustin Penner eating pancakes or Sopel picking up a cracker so the other team likely won’t have to give up much.

 

[Looney Toonies]

It's the young Leaf fans who make 100 proposals per day including every player on the roster.

Realistically, Liljegren/Sandin/Robertson/Amirov are the cream of the crop Leafs prospects and won't be moved barring a massive acquisition. TOR is looking for one piece - either a 2nd line LW, or a 3rd line C, depending on where Kerfoot settles in the lineup (he's looked good on JT's wing again). You don't trade one of your best prospects for that kind of piece.

Since the back-half of Liljegren's 19 year old season, he's cemented himself in this team's future. Ask any knowledgeable Leaf fan who has watched the Marlies this season and they would say he's borderline untouchable. Amazing start to the year as the team's MVP again.

I logged in purely to give you my like. I can't get over the amount of posts I see acting as if Lilly is a throw in. He's the best D prospect the Leafs have had in a very, very long time. (Sandin included imo)

 

[Flgatorguy87]

Granlund makes the most sense from the Preds perspective. Toronto is standing at the buffet line trying to figure out what the last spot on their plate gets.

 

[13pacheco31]

Probably. Or like, an A- minus prospect. I mean, to me a B prospect is like Rasanen. Basically someone closer to NHL action than not.

Not sure who you're referring to there. Surely you don't mean eemeli rasanen?

 

[MarkusKetterer]

Not sure who you're referring to there. Surely you don't mean eemeli rasanen?

Yes. Is there another Rasanen out there?

 

[13pacheco31]

Yes. Is there another Rasanen out there?

I don't know, it's just that he isn't a very good prospect.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

I don't know, it's just that he isn't a very good prospect.

Haha. To me a B prospect is someone who may or may not make the NHL, but if they do it’ll be for like half of a season.

A C prospect either only plays in the minors or gets a game or two in the NHL as a reward.

Other people’s opinions may differ though

 

[Pucker77]

If the Leafs trade with an American team I would put money on the trade happening around March 15.

From March 15-25 the Leafs have 2 4-day breaks with 2 games vs Calgary in the middle. It is the perfect time for a player to start their quarantine and not miss a lot of playing time.

 

[CanadianCoyote]

If Toronto's looking for anything on the market, it's someone to fill whatever position Kerfoot doesn't settle into. I don't see them having very much need for anything else.

They don't need a goalie right now since Hutch has held down the fort very well while Campbell and Andersen rest up, their blueline is the best it's been in a while and, more importantly, the healthiest it's been in a while...and clearly, they're not having trouble on offense even without Matthews playing the game on Saturday.

 

[Face Of Bear]

Getzlaf 50% retained for Kerfoot + picks/psopects

 

[MCB]

Nice we will take Zegras I heard he was okay

0p in 3gp, he's a bust. We will take future considerations for him.

 

[SwedishFire]

Im calling Bennet to Toronto.

 

[IrishInOntario]

I think Pearson would be a great fit for the Leafs, the Canucks could easily retain as well, plus, our GM trading is the equivalent to Dustin Penner eating pancakes or Sopel picking up a cracker so the other team likely won’t have to give up much.

I've suggested something like a 2021 2nd round pick and a 2022 4th round pick for Pearson retained.

 

[IrishInOntario]

Rickard Rackell retained at 50% has been my 1st choice for a while if the Leafs go the winger route. Ideal 2nd line fit, IMO. 1.9 million cap hit in 2022 is very interesting to me given the Leafs cap situation.

 

[LMFAO]

Im calling Bennet to Toronto.

calgary wont just give him away, Toronto would have to send a good player back.

Yea but what are they really going to add? They kind of went "all in" during the off season in a way. Plus if you yard for one of the players in the USA at the deadline you probably won't get to use them until the playoffs, and what if they don't fit well with the team?

They could add more skill up front... maybe more beef in the line up ... upgrade at 3c... there are areas they can improve.

Adding more fire power for playoffs is never a bad move when you are in their position pending cost. But they are in a good spot to shoot for a cup

Making the playoffs is a no brainer... and Toronto should easily come out of the Canada division. But the team can be better to beat teams like Tampa, Boston, Florida, Carolina, Vegas etc.

 

[notbias]

Does trading with an American team at the deadline add more cap flexibility? Because the person has to quarantine I am assuming they would not be counted against the cap, right? Anyone want to clear this up.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Granlund makes the most sense from the Preds perspective. Toronto is standing at the buffet line trying to figure out what the last spot on their plate gets.

I can see the Avs being in on Granlund too.

 

[Shanwhatplan]

Getzlaf 50% retained for Kerfoot + picks/psopects

I would gladly do that trade even though Kerfoot has looked better playing 2nd line wing. However, from what I've heard, Getzlaf plans on remaining with the Ducks until he retires.

 

[topshelf15]

Watson would be a nice gritty fit for Toronto,s bottom 6....

have Leaf and Ducks fans made any ground on a Rakell@50% deal?
I will offer 2021 1st+Amirov+Neimela+Engvall
