Proposal: McAvoy to Leafs

[Michel Beauchamp]

Pointless thread, the Leafs can't trade Nylander since he's a free agent right now.

False.

Remember the Bruins trading Kessel ?

 

[Hunter368]

McAvoy for Marner 1:1

No chance Boston considers that

 

[Hunter368]

I don’t see why Boston would do the OP trade, just a poor fit and doesn’t fill their needs.

 

[RedBruin]

No, it doesn't. That only makes sense when you're dealing with guys about to be UFA's.

Sorry that's just too stupid for me. Nylander is a free agent right now. The Leafs cannot trade him, merely his rights, that's a massive difference in TRADE VALUE IN A TRADE PROPOSAL, got it now ?

Just because you repeat it doesn't make it true.

There is a difference between a UFA and RFA that you don't seem to properly appreciate.

 

[RedBruin]

Just because you repeat it doesn't make it true.

Nylander is a free agent. Quit being a Donald.
And yes I do understand the difference between UFA and RFA. You don't seem to. Both are free agents.

Same reason as the vast majority of all RHD to Toronto proposals.

 

[xgallantx]

NO way Boston gives the Leafs exactly what they need.

Again, remember Kessel ?

 

[RedBruin]

Not sure why we're arguing here buddy, honestly. Yeah I do remember. Remember the OP ? It said the Leafs were trading Nylander. The Leafs cannot trade Nylander. Just his rights. There's a difference in value. Unsigned Nylander has a certain value, Nylander at 8x7 has a certain value, Nylander at 2x4 has a certain value. Got it now ?

Hint: What did the Bruins get for the so-called "rights" to Kessel ?

And you wrote "that's a massive difference in TRADE VALUE IN A TRADE PROPOSAL"...

 

[DFF]

that must be sarcasm

It's worse...he is serious

 

[ITM]

To Bruins
Nylander
Dermott
Liljegren
1st rd pick

To Leafs
McAvoy
Donato

We don't know what Dermott and Liljegren are yet. As good as McAvoy is and could be, it makes no sense to move those two D pieces from our club WITH William Nylander AND a 1st round pick. This is an overpayment and an easy no from Toronto.

 

[ITM]

Equal ? i dont think so .
Mcavoy has much greater value . I would even say more value than EK had

By all means...would you? Eager to read how McAvoy has much greater value than Erik Karlsson.

The Bruins got a pretty decent deal out of it.
Which they then squandered by giving away Seguin for basically nothing.
Nothing of this has anything to do with this thread. Even the mighty Leafs cannot trade a player they haven't even signed. And If we're talking about a signed Nylander, then his value highly depends on the deal he's signed to, end of story, even a Laughs and a Habs fan should grasp the concept of that and that's my last post on this.

 

[ITM]

Long story short, if it isn't for Matthews then don't bother picking up the phone

McAvoy + McAvoy + McAvoy doesn't get you Matthews.

"...then don't bother picking up the phone."

Was Kessel signed when they traded him ?

I repeat:

 

[Critical13]

If I am Boston, I don't trade McAvoy for just about anything right now.

To be honest, I thought he was bad in the playoffs, but how to you trade a 19 year old #3 defenceman with #1 potential?

 

[major major]

To Bruins
Nylander
Dermott
Liljegren
1st rd pick

To Leafs
McAvoy
Donato

I'd value those pieces like this:

McAvoy >>> Nylander >> Donato > Liljegren = Dermott > 1st.

Even in a vacuum where it made sense for the Bruins to trade McAvoy to the Leafs, he's worth a lot more than this offer.

I'd take him over plenty of #1s, for this year.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

McAvoy + McAvoy + McAvoy doesn't get you Matthews.

"...then don't bother picking up the phone."

Wow, that post just showed "..." knowledge.

I'll let readers choose between "lots of" or "lack of".

 

[Sota Popinski]

The Bruins are adding Donato in this deal? No way in hell.

 

[LordZapp]

That offer is not bad at all. Bruins politely decline.

He had a sprained MCL (missed 15 games) and played with a brace in the playoffs.
