TSN: Maple Leafs and Panarin have history....Very interesting

[HOCKEYGOON]

Pan Man - Matthews - Nylander
Hyman - Tavares - Marner
Johnsson - Kadri - Kaps

Is this real tea or fantasy?

 

[unitedstars87]

Panarin - Tavares - Kapenen
Hyman - Matthews- Marner
Mango - Kadri - Moore
Marchment - Lindholm - Bracco

Reilly - xx (RHD Nylander trade)
Dermott - Muzzin
Rosen - Liljegren

Anderson
xx

Let’s go!!

 

[hullsy47]

We can keep Gardiner, the other 3 still add up to over $12M

Gardiner is gone
we ll get muzzin at 6 5 I bet

 

[unitedstars87]

Panarin - Matthews - Kapanen
Hyman - - - Tavares - - - Marner
Johnsson - - Kadri - - Nylander

THATS DISGUSTING!​

Kapenen should be bolded before Nylander imo

 

[LeafGrief]

Panarin would be awesome, we could use an elite LW'er to balance things out. But that ship sailed when we signed Tavares. We just don't have the space, sadly. Very sadly...

Only way would be to trade Nylander + Zaitsev

 

[RantanenRavin]

I think so too.

Gardiner $4,050,000
Hainsey $3,000,000
Brown $2,100,000
Marleau $6,250,000

thats $15.4 mill sooo........

So you're saying that Panarin can play 2 defense spots and 2 forward spots all simultaneously?

Its great that you can clear 15m that easily, but you still need to fill those positions with players that carry at least league minimum salaries.

 

[al secord]

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts my uncle would be my aunt.

 

[Havoc]

What if the Leafs traded Nylander, Brown++ for Panarin?? the money would work as long as he is willing to sign.

Relax. Panarin has like 3 more years before he's irrelevant.

 

[Blufreezy]

Don’t need him and can’t afford him

 

[Dragao6]

I think so too.

Gardiner $4,050,000
Hainsey $3,000,000
Brown $2,100,000
Marleau $6,250,000

This is also when we trade nylander for a trouba/parayko/pietrangelo

Kadri can also be moved...it is possible but so much needs to be moved around, probability is VERY low

 

[4thline]

Neat contingency plan if Paul balks at the budgeted amount

 

[81Leafs50]

And then you have to consider 11M for Matthews, 10M for Marner, 3-4M for Kap, and 1-2M for Johnsson, plus all the other small holes that will need to be filled.

Panarin ain't coming.

this is way off. Brown scored 20 goals and got 2.1mill so please keep that in mind when thinking about Kapanen making anything for that.

If people think kapanen and Jonsson will be making more money than Brown or Hyman then the just wont be on the team cause they wont fit in the cap.

 

[81Leafs50]

So are we just ignoring contracts to all the RFAs?

not at all.

 

[RoadWarrior]

Panarin as a rental makes some sense but there's not enough cap space left to squeeze him in unless they trade a roster player.

Brown plus picks for Panarin is the only deal that would make sense

Brown will be traded if it comes down to him or Kapanen. They're not going to lose Kapanen to accommodate Brown.

Also, Kapanen is a legit blue chip who is only going to continue to get better. Brown's 20 goal season has zero relevance. That was his ceiling.

My guess is 3-4 range for Kapanen.

Johnsson I agree won't get more than Hyman and Brown.

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

Oh he's coming over for sure now

Kapanen in a Leafs uniform past this season wont have an AAV over 2.5mill thats fact.

If Kapanen was truly a blue chip he would have made a NHL roster before this season.

in 49 games played this season, Kapanen is just 6 points shy of Brown's career high, and has a much higher ceiling. Kapanen knows this, his agent knows this, and the team knows this.

and even if I'm "way off", the 1M-2M difference isn't going to be the difference between Panarin signing or not at 8M+

...

so you're saying he didn't make an NHL roster last season? Didn't have 55 NHL regular season games, and 13 playoff games prior to the 2018/2019 season?

 

[Finnish your Czech]

Maybe if we lose Matthews to an offer sheet? But by that time Panarin would have already been signed. Plus there's a 0.1% chance he even gets offer sheeted.

 

[Rogue]

If we can get Panarin as a free agent and sign him to the same deal as Nylander, will that upgrade us?
I mean Nylander hasn't even hit his peak yet and Panarin is supposed to be starting to decline, right?

 

[ToDavid]

I think the Leafs could move on from Marleau and Brown to make it work.

add up Marleau and Brown (6.25+2.1) = 8.46 mill would that be enough to get him signed long term??

$8.5 million probably isn't enough and you have have to factor in the player that replaces Brown on the roster, so it's more like $7.5 million.

 

[LeafSteel]

Don’t need him and can’t afford him

This.

Nice fantasy but never going to happen.

We will be lucky to keep what we already have, let alone add another top 3 forward.

Damn you, salary cap!!!!! Damn you to Hellllllll!!!!!

 

[The90]

If we can get rid of Marleau, Zaitsev, Brown and don't resign Gardiner then maybe.

Who needs depth anyways
