Petry's been pretty damn solid since Weber went down - more than earning his paycheque. He'd look really, really good on the Leafs D, which is their achilles heel at the moment.
Lol Petry. Thanks for the OT goal Petry.

Lehkonen missed his coverage
The rest of the game showed why Toronto needs Petry
huh?? it was a bad change by drouin and a bad cover by lek i dont know what you're trying to say...
his job was to take the pass away.
marleau got him the puck, he should have blocked itWatch the replay when the plays start its a 2v2 and Petry communicates with lehkonen to take the other man, He underestimated Matthews speed and he splitted both.
I'm sorry but the Caps, Pens, Chicago, Kings, Boston, Detroit. They all had a terribly better D squad then the current Toronto Team. Toronto Really really needs a better D core, we even saw it during the last 2 playoffs.... I don't know how you think you can win the Cup with Gardiner/zaitsev as your second pairing lmao.
Well Pens D-core in their second win had less talent than the current Toronto D, not really debatable.
Stopped reading there.
I have zero clue how you can say that Schultz/mattaa/Dumoulin are worse than your current D core ?
did we watched the same games during the last 2 years ?
only good thing about toronto D core is Dermott lmao.
I can go on an on an on on Corsi, D plays, +/- , possession, first pass, etc.
Toronto is not even on the same level of Pitts D core.
Toronto fans are so freaking out of touch wtf.
I would doubt you could go on an on about Corsi, D Plays, posession first pass, entries, exits etc, because if you did and still came to the conclusion that Schultz/Maata/Dumoulin are more talented than Rielly/Gardiner/Dermott you will have missed something.
It isn't Delusion, the Leafs have one of the better Left Sides on their D in the league, but also probably the absolute worst RHD. It makes them exploitable, and is no doubt going to be the weakness any team that beats them will need to exploit to do so.
Honestly, if you think that calling Toronto a legit contender, not a favourite, but a team amount that is at the very least in that group of 8-10 teams with a legitimate shot of winning it with the right bounces, it is you who is out of touch.
It is too bad that you stopped reading, because at no point did I call you out of touch or try to insinuate that anything you said was laughable, despite your insistence on doing so. I expressed an opinion like an adult, and backed it up methodically, whether you agree or not. You did not. You said you could do it, but feel no need to, despite the fact that you are on a message board that is literally devoted to the idea of discussing hockey in a way of creating content.
You added no content. I know it's a hard time for habs fans, but you don't have to resort to being a troll, that's a choice.
Stop going with your own words, it's not about "talents'' it's about what they bring when they play.
Toronto D core is good on the PP , they don't bring much else
The leafs have one of the best LHD in the league ? what ? I'm done with you , you are way too clueless to have a real conversation. I really don't know in what World is Gardiner a TOP LHD in the league hahahahahah
The Leafs can't subtract from their defense, not to mention Dermott is young, cheap and on the rise.Leafs are getting a bonafide #2 dman on a good deal, my ask would be Dermott + a 2nd.
I would love Petry.
Might make more sense at the deadline, but maybe that Habs won't want to take that step back.
Dermott doesn't make sense, we need him now.
It would need to be futures/prospects/Johnsson or Kapanen type deal. I don't want to deal our 1st but that's the type of guy I would do it for.
Petry for a late 1st and one of Liljegren or Sandin gets the conversation started.

Not that I'm suggesting any offer, but the market value for a dman like Petry would be a 1st + a decent young player/prospect.Zero interest in depth. If whatever you're offering doesn't sting a little, you're not offering much.

If you're expecting it to hurt more than that, then I doubt he'll be moved anywhere.
Right. Toronto just HAS to have Petry so they'll pay the "divisional tax" to get him.You're a divisional rival. Wake up.

No. It's too much quantity and not enough quality.I know Leafs fans aren't too happy with Brown's play. There's got to be a way a deal around Petry - Nylander.
2nd round pick
Prospect - Montreal has stocked up on a lot of them
Jeff Petry
Charlie Lindgren
for
William Nylander
Connor Brown - help offset salary
