Proposal: Speculation: Rumours: Done Deals: Trade Deadline 2019 ...

[Al14]

Lol why? Kasperi is good but so overrated. Johnsson can provide the same offence. Brown sucks dick tbh

Sounds like a serviceable player to keep.

 

[kb]

Is that why you're named KB?

You just wan't to keep Kapanen + Brown?

Kould Be.

People don't seem to understand that contenders rarely trade players from their roster in the middle of the season. None of these Brown+Zaitsev moves are going to happen now, those are more offseason moves. We need all the depth we can get for the playoffs, so thats why you add players on the roster without having to give up others/further gut your depth

Not always true. TB gave up a roster player in the McDonaugh trade last year. Leafs have to move money to take on money so a roster player will most likely go in a deal.

I knew someone would mention this. They gave up 1 roster player for 2, and got a direct replacement for Namestikov (J.T Miller, who is better than Namestnikov), while then adding to their blue line. The trade was pretty much just an add on the blue line for futures if you say Namestikov=Miller in the lineup.

I am sure there are other examples out there. Spooner in the Nash deal off the top of my head.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

I know it would be near impossible without bonuses carrying over to next year, but man I would love to add Hayes and Zuccarello for the rest of the year. Get Lindholm and Brown off the roster

Zuccarello-Tavares-Marner
Hayes-Matthews-Nylander
Johnsson-Kadri-Kapanen
Hyman-Gauthier-Marleau

 

[thewave]

Shake it up! We need some passionate angsty Leaf lovers on this team stat!

 

[Walshy7]

Not sure where to put this but Dylan strome now at 30 points on 32 games with the hawks. I love that, the coyotes are a massive tire fire on and off the ice.

I kind of wish we went in for him at the price he ended up costing. 2020 hindsight though

Helps a lot playing 1st PP and lots of minutes with Kane. But yah, does sort of look lopsided in retrospect. I immediately think of Puls and what might happen of his future suitor.

[shortfuze]

Unless we've completely screwed up the cap situation I don't see how trading him makes any sense

He's a transitional monster on a team that doesn't have a ton of guys that can carry the puck through the N/Z

Nylander, Marner and to a lesser extent Kapanen are relied on to do that because other than them it's pretty thin, we've got scorers up the middle but there not great puck carriers and besides Johnsson the left side is a wasteland

In summary, Nylander is more valuable to us than another team imo

never understood this quote. Nylander is just as valuable to toronto as he would be for other teams.

we got enuff 4th liners

Babcock can't get enough hard working, 4th line plugs, that are gud pros for all 4 lines!

Could always take a chance on:
Puljujarvi, A. Nylander, Zacha, Bennett

Bennett has a nasty side that I never thought he had but I doubt Flames are interested in giving him away. The others are offseason acquisitions if the Leafs are interested.

Dylan Strome was united with his Otter's linemate Debrincat, who irritates me every time I see him score because we passed on.

 

[613Leafer]

Could always take a chance on:
Puljujarvi, A. Nylander, Zacha, Bennett

I think it's easier for a team with bad depth (e.g. Chicago) to do that.

If we add one of those guys, who do you subtract from the top 9? I think it's something we could do in the offseason, especially if we end up having to unload one of Kapanen, AJ, Brown, etc for cap reasons. But right now, there just isn't really any room.

 

[Walshy7]

it is very much hindsight by me here. Blackhawks gave up Schmaltz who isn't a nothing piece either

 

[BlueForever75]

I don't have an issue making a trade with some of our roster players moving out as long as it betters the lineup. In the end if getting rid of players like Brown, Zaitsev, Kapanen and Johnsson means that we get another solid top 4 dman and another quality winger to put in the top 6 that adds grit, speed and skill. I am all for it.

As long as the players coming back have term and meet that criteria the Leafs should be open for business.

 

[thewave]

Move Jake, he doesnt look like he cares anymore. The booing did him in, you gotta be pretty blind to not see it.

 

[neversaydie]

Wonder if we would be interested in Spurgeon as a deadline add. He's a UFA at the end of the year and Minny's year is practically over? Wonder what it would take, dont want to break the bank but what could he fetch on a deadline deal?
