Proposal: Marner+Liljegren+1st for Alex Pietrangelo+5th round pick

[Liferleafer]

Usually u seem like one of the more sane Leafs posters but u seem mad right now. I just skimmed through read post yet but ill say Gaudreau's stats easily proved he his better player. And i watched some games of Matthews and his defense is meh so not really an advantage to him when Gaudreau gets more steals. And if u ever watch Monahan u would see that their playstyles are almost identical. Matthews career high is only 5 points higher than Monahan's.

Oh Jesus Christ.....
Monahan 244 points in 393 games....71PPG
Matthews 132 points in 144 games .91PPG

GTFO with Matthews=Monahan.

If u wanna know how it feels to win a playoff series in the salary cap era u can ask. Ill tell u all about it

If you wanna know what the playoffs felt like last year, Leafs fans can fill you in.

 

[Liferleafer]

OMG I can't stop laughing.

No shit....

 

[MNRube]

Steep price, but have to think Leafs fans would realize very quickly the value of a true #1D. Pietrangelo would possibly be their best skater, or at least their most important.

You're really picking the offseason the Leafs, the sixth best team in the NHL, added one of the best players in the league to talk all this smack eh?

matthews has only played 2 seasons in the nhl whereas monahan has played 5. in both seasons matthews point totals were in the 60's. he was a ppg player this season while monahan has never been a ppg ever in his 5 seasons. this was his closest season in being a ppg player, and he was still 10 points off of that mark. monahan also plays with an elite player while matthews plays with a very good player and a decent player.

Pitreangelo about to get paidddddd soon. Not what we need right now. Marner with his RFA status should net him a couple million less per season then AP.
-
Matthews and Marner are the closest players to untouchable.

if you can't handle the truth, go back to the leaf board. maybe you will feel safe there

This is terrible for St.Louis

Matthews is better but the styles they play is very similer.

Plus, Rielly got half his points on the PP on a very strong offensive team, while the Blues had a below average offense and poor PP. Rielly's value isn't close to Petro's so what is your point?

And still do.

Leafs fans are becoming insufferable in a hurry. Kind of reminds me of Red Sox fans circa 2004 but at least they waited til after they won a championship to get cocky.

Nothing like a f***ing baseball reference on a hockey forum to show your depth of NHL knowledge.

 

[Skolman]

Lol flames fans are so salty and depressed...so much hate in your posts.. Hey at least u acquired half of the Hurricanes and their coach so playoffs should arrive in your city in.. 5 years?

How successful has your favorite team been in the playoffs in recent memory?

 

[Tryblot]

And still do.

Not really. They added some good players and much needed depth. The third line last year was a complete black hole and was absolutely pathetic. This year that will be a different story, plus adding ROR, Perron, Fabbri, Bozak and potentially Thomas will help a great deal.

Also - Pro Tip - Never get super high or super low on your team. You have been in the basement before and will be again. Don't get a big head when you suddenly have a decent team because you will just end up looking like an ass when you fall back down to the basement.

Less they get relocated, then you can get super low, until you get an expansion team and can try and keep that balance again...

Until the next relo.

 

[Gary Nylund]

No ****....

I know right?
It's like the meeting of Pot&Kettle, they're like "finally, after all these years I found someone I can relate to".

 

[WTFMAN99]

I'm sure the Blues would love to trade their #1RHD for someone who would be their 2nd line RW....

That's cute, in Marner's sophomore year he outscored Tarasenko this past season. If you want to specifically place him on the 2nd line fine, but don't act like there is any gap between Marner and Tarasenko. Both are 1st line players, end of story.

 

[Mike Liut]

And still do.

How do you know they still have a below average offense and PP? Blues are adding ROR, Perron, Bozak, Fabbri, Maroon, Thomas and possibly Kyrou to their lineup.

I very explicitly stated he would be their second line player, and not that he was a second line player. try to keep up.

Marner is a 22G scorer and Tarasenko is a 40G scorer

Me too, I laughed so hard at that one post I got some funny looks from my co-workers. Luckily my weekend begins in less than an hour so I'll probably still have a job Monday. This thread though ... I don't know whether to laugh or to cry.

And again to STL fans - Pietrangelo is awesome, totally understand why you guys wouldn't want to do this trade, seems like most of you understand why it wouldn't be a good idea for us either. Good luck this season, I am very interested to see how Bozak works out for you.
