I was confused by the thread title , and to my surprise , I'm just as confused by this.

If we trading Nylander Dumba better be in the deal.

No thanks from Toronto. Plan on keeping Nylander.

I understand why but Dumba's a non-starter for MN when it comes to the Nylander deal. I've been critical of Dumba in the past but he just does too much for us with nobody else around that can fill his role.

So then you don’t get a 22 year old elite top line player. Choose someone else.

Why would the Oilers do this deal? Awful for them

I mean.. I'd take that offered deal.. Nino is pretty good and Spurgeon at what 2m is nuts. He's a #2 dman.

Spurgeon is seriously underrated on these boards

 

[57special]

Wild are not going to pay half of Spurgeon's salary to play for someone else.

 

[780il]

Big hell no from Edmonton

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Nylander doesn’t work for Minnesota because we’d need Toronto l to take a lot of salary off our hands to be able to resign nylander. If TOR was going to take salary they would just sign nylander. Plus I think spurgeon is a tad bit too old for toronto’s Liking. Also way too much of a shakeup for no reason. More isn’t always better. Remember Minnesota two years ago? First in the West, 2nd in the league at the trade deadline. Added Hanzal in what was supposed to give us “the best center ice in the league”. Ended up throwing off chemistry; Players didn’t like they’re new roles and all hell broke loose. We finished the season with a stretch well under 500 and we’re bounced in th the 1st round as a 2 seed in what was likely “our year”.

He would be a shade under $2.6m for Spurgeon, and Nino at $5.25 for 3 more years.
Spurgeon would become our top pairing guy replacing Hainsey (low bar)

I like the idea of getting Spurgeon, but after next season hes a UFA and will end up costing a good deal (id assume 6-7 mil).

If there was a way to trade for him that didnt include Nylander id be pretty interested.
It may be irrational, but giving up a 22yo for a decent replacement (Nino) and a solid d (spurgeon) is tempting to me only if the Leafs think they can win this/next year which I dont.

As a Leaf fan I put them a decent playoff run this year (into 2nd round loosing) and next year loosing in the ECF.
If Spurgeon had 3 years left it would be a totally different deal IMO.

So let me get this straight, you want a 50 points winger and a top pair d at 50% retained for your 60 points winger. And still there are leafs fans unhappy with this?

If that's the level of analysis you're willing to put into a proposal, that's on you, not the offer. I am surprised you didn't bring up +/- too.

It's not a bad proposal for the Leafs. I like Spurgeon a lot. Would prefer him to a Pesce type no doubt. With that being said, his contract is an issue.

Chiarelli would do that deal. He supposedly was going to take JEE back in the 2015 draft over Barzal

Again, it’s not that he’s bad - he’s just too close to UFA.

Absolute garbage

 

[WTFMAN99]

I won't claim to speak for all of Leafs nation, appreciate you gave up some "nice" pieces for Nylander but overall, i'd pass.

So........Toronto gets Nylander? Sweet!

I think it makes sense for both teams. First the Nylander contract has to be settled. He's a 6.5m player who apparently want 8m.
Leafs have to look at as 2 years for Spurgeon, and 3 years of Nino. Total of five years. Nylander is only under Leafs control. for five years. So, I could see the value for both teams.

 

[Funk21]

Yes unless we are getting Dumba back, even if we had to add (we would) we are not doing that deal.

I don't want the Leafs to trade Nylander but if they did, I could live with that.
