Proposal: Toronto and New Jersey

[Devilinlillinois]

William Nylander
15th overall



7th overall
Nolan Foote
Miles Wood

Not going to happen

 

[ScottyK]

Value is fine but it doesn't make sense for NJ

 

[Marner4Life]

I'm assuming that OP is making this under the assumption that Pie signs with Toronto? I could be wrong

Yes but Toronto needs two RD

 

[BB06]

That's bad for the leafs

 

[A1LeafNation]

No way

 

[devils29]

They are getting a top 15 pick and 24 year old, consistent 60 point nhl scorer in return.

In a draft with 12 top talents. Devils aren’t in a position to give up 2 major assets for 1. Just rebuild properly.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

To Leafs: 7th overall

We are a win now team.
We've been making rental deals before the playoffs for a few years now.
Management expects this well paid team to win the Cup.

We cant acquire picks. They are of no use to our WIN NOW team.

 

[mydnyte]

No, he's definitely not a center. That has been tried, and failed

he's not a 3rd line Center. ...playing with Kap and filler doesnt help you.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

Pass.

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

They are getting a top 15 pick and 24 year old, consistent 60 point nhl scorer in return.

A 24 year old holds less value to the Devils than an 18 year old with higher potential than Nylander

Even if the 18 year old may not pan out

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

Not just another Leafs proposal but another Leafs proposal with William Nylander in it.
This is the 4th proposal on the front page of the trade board that has Nylander in a Leafs deal. He’s already been pitched to Montreal, Colorado, Philadelphia and now New Jersey.
I know Nylander is sofT in the playoffs but dayyum Leaf fans enough with the Nylander proposals talk about beating a dead horse.
Nobody wants overpaid charmin softness.

Nylander is not overpaid - Mitch Marner is overpaid

Leafs should keep Nylander and move Marner

It's seriously moving down 8 spots...a number of which, you could possibly make back up by packaging 15 + 18 together.

Not to mention, you could make the potential claim on just about everyone in the first round. That's why they are referred to as magic beans.

I get that people may not like Nylander...that makes sense to me. But the idea that this is somehow worse for a rebuild I don't quite understand, tbh. This in particular seems like a massive overvaluing of a draft pick.

Specifically for this draft the top-9/10 is a step above the rest, according to most scouts, and nothing says Nylander has to re-sign with us when his deal ends. Thus the 18 year old would be on an ELC or his first real contract by the time were a contender whereas Nylander would be either on his way out of expecting a pay raise

Im not saying 24 year olds dont fit the timeline for us but when its that or an 18 year old with high-end 1st line/pair upside whos age falls in line with Nico/Jack better (19/21), Id rather keep the #7 and explore Severson for him (not that I want to move defenseman but thats what Toronto needs)

Once that happens, teams know they need cap soace, value of nylander drop.

The value of a player actively on the market will be determined by buyers, how many team interest and how serious they are.

Yes GM can try to drop value but you just need one gm telling ok i really want nylander so i will raise my offer, a second, third, fourth gm do the same thing and value of nylander will raise exactly like what happening with kasperi kapanen.

Ok just talk about nylander against 7th overall pick. No way in an other situation than pietrangelo signing with leafs toronto accept to think about a possibility to do that kind of trade. NYR grab 8th overall pick and deangelo for stepan (6,5M) and unproven goalie as Rantta so PLEASE dont tell me leafs can have something like that for willie!!!
Nylander >>>Stepan

 

[7even]

Oh boy 7th overall

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

William Nylander
15th overall



7th overall
Nolan Foote
Miles Wood

If you change out Foote for a lesser prospect, I’d probably do it. A Joey Anderson or Talvitie. I’m not comfortable moving Foote before seeing what he has yet.

This deal is already tilted in NJs favor a little bit.

 

[The Shrike]

The draft is before the UFA period though, so a trade involving this years picks would happen first.

[Djp]

But the premise was on PA being signed which doesn’t happen till after the draft. If you know he will sign before UFA opens screams tampering.

After he is signed thrn teams know the laughs are in a cap crunch and not return as much.

 

[Blackjack]

Oh boy 7th overall

7th is pretty good. It's better than 8th, not quite as good as 6th.

 

[Morgs]

Leafs pass very easily.

 

[7even]

[Sparksrus3]

No. We’re rebuilding. Why would a rebuilding team give up a top 10 pick and one of their top prospects.

because the Leafs want you to . You know the HFLeafs game is played so just play along . Devils keep Severson and he is still there when they are very good in a few years while Toronto ices 8 - $10 million a year skaters and bring back Darcy Tucker and Tomas Kaberle to fill a roster spots.

 

[viceroy]

Toronto ices 8 - $10 million a year skaters.

Nice, they then just leave the ice unmanned for 25-30 min a game.
