Can he plays on the right side? Or is Gio moving to the right?

This smoke reminds me of the hours/minutes before the Boosh trade.

Gio should be moving to a retirement home.

With this and his agent's tweet it's clear he really wants to come to Toronto

This will hopefully proceed quickly

 

[Eternal Leaf]

It's wild how open his agent has been tonight. Wants to clearly force a move to Toronto.

Makes sense, it's a good way to build his value up on the big stage.

Its like the NBA, name your team

Or his agent is just using the Leafs to drive up his price

This is exactly what he’s doing.

What did his agent tweet?

Hey, let's think outside the business for a moment.

If Zadorov would be happy in Toronto, and a good move can be made to make this a good hockey trade why not do it.

Flames are not expected to be a threat to win anything this year. They have to think long term.

Only challenge is getting Cap balance.

What future are Leafs willing to give up?

 

[Steven1562]

Brad is in on this for sure. The Flames connection and Zadorov wanting out. He would definitely toughen up the back end. A big difference between him and Klingberg's play style.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Is Conroy still not allowed to trade with Brad?

 

[TakeTheBody]

If only Brad knew the Flames roster.

Would love to have him, perfect partner for Rielly.

Rielly plays amazing when he plays with a stay at home like Lybushkin, Schenn, Zadorov.

Driving up what price?

It's a trade not a free agent signing.

His agent doesn't give a shit what Calgary gets in return.

His agent doesn't give a shit what Calgary gets in return.

But Calgary doesn’t need to say yes.

 

[PromisedLand]

Dubas' boy has been looking for clickbaits after a lot of Leafs fans were disgusted by him

 

[Dr.Funk]

But Calgary doesn’t need to say yes.

Of course not but that's an entirely separate issue than his agent driving up some kind of price

 

[Fogelhund]

Klingberg for Zadarov. Caps are close enough. Wrap it up.

 

[Community]

Curious how this move would go through. Is there any chance Brad moves on from Klingberg already?

Because, if not, I'm not sure what move can occur to clear enough capspace that ends with us being a better team than today.

Edit: Should preface that, while I know almost everybody here would be ecstatic to move on from Klingberg, it's rare that a significant free agent gets moved on from this quick.

Unless Klingberg himself would welcome a change, which is possible. A change to Calgary though? Unlikely.

Also Leafs would have to add quite a bit.

 

[TIGERCOOL]

As a pending UFA, I'd think Klingberg + McMann and a 3rd- 4th rounder could get this done

Why would the agent care what Calgary gets in return, he nor his client benefits in any way whether it's a trade for Knies or for a 7th rounder.

If it's anyone, it's Conroy that will use the Leafs
