I don't think Anaheim does it, but I would be ecstatic as a Leaf fan.

Personally, I would give up Nylander+1st or even consider Nylander+Liljegren.

 

[firstemperor]

Anaheim says no, Leafs say yes

 

[dracom]

Hard pass. Defensemen like Lindholm are more important and valuable than a winger like Nylander.

 

[kindalaidback]

Nah

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

would duck fans do marner for lindholm?

 

[Hunter368]

Ducks pass

 

[KWPower]

Why TF would the Ducks do this???

Still an easy no. Skilled offensive wingers are easier to get your hands on than #1 D. We would have an easier time finding a Marner than trying to replace Lindholm.

Quick, somebody post a thread for Fowler to Toronto. We have an opportunity to hit for the cycle here!

Tune in next week for 7 Parayko threads!

Leafs aren't trading Nylander, kthxbai

Nylander plus?...

Ducks are bottom heavy, Leafs are top heavy. Ducks aren't competitive anymore and get younger in this deal. Nylander still hasn't hit his ceiling despite having exception underlying numbers screaming breakout year.

Ducks can stick to the script and continue to regress and die slowly.

Talk to your fellow leaf fans then. It's not ANA fans making thread after thread trying to trade a top 4 D for wingers.

I’m starting to think Nylander and Kapanen must not be very good.

Leaf fans sure want to jettison them off the roster quite often

 

[HoweHullOrr]

Deleted. See #17.

Or maybe Leaf fans want to acquire a defenceman, and those are the assets that would be least painful to lose. Not many teams are willing to consider dealing players with that kind of talent at age 21.

It's odd that you say that to be honest, because from what I've read, Boston fans loved Kapanen's performance against them in the playoffs. The GDT was full of praise for him.

How could we claim that we are unfairly persecuted then? LOL.

Easy pass from ana.

I do not believe it. The massive amount of lopsided trade proposals I see makes me suspicious Leaf fans are up to something.

As for the playoffs Marner was really good. Anderson was their best player. Reilly was good in a couple of them.

The rest were pretty meh.

Do you really think that we dont hate the brain dead threads as much as you do? I get to read a dozen brilliant posts like "if he's so good why do so many Leafs fans want to trade him?"
I keep bringing it up at our quarterly meetings but it seems to fall on deaf ears.

Like to see that proven. Sure I'm a Leaf fan,but I've been watchin' for over 50 years...not many Marner -like indivduals over that span! Perhaps you know of some coming up,or can maybe state an example of who currently is Marner-like that a team would give up for Lindholm.

You realize there's a lot of us right? Our hive mind mentality must not be functioning properly lately...

I will discuss your concerns at our next meeting. Thank you for your feedback.

You say that as if Lindholm is an aging vet. They are separated by two years and both under 25.

Ducks can stick to the script and continue to regress and die slowly.

OR
"You won't accept my proposal?! Well have fun with your sucky team!" You're a bit sensitive to be making proposals it seems.

Nylander is a great player but Anaheim won't give them Lindholm for him. It's not happening.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Like to see that proven.

Look at 25 years of drafting history between these two teams since the Ducks have existed. Lindholm and Rielly stand alone as true #1 D drafted and developed by the clubs, and there are quite a few examples forwards of top line quality drafted during that time.

It's really damn tough to draft and develop a #1D, and just as tough to trade for one because the teams that have them tend to lock them up for most of their prime barring off ice interference.
