Proposal: Toronto-Florida

[crowi]

Scrambled brains for no heart.

TO says no thank you.

Eh, I'd pick the guy who had some concussion problems over a player with no heart. One of these is a character trait, other one is not.

Also makes no sense anyway for Florida.

I wouldn't subtract from my D corps if were in charge in Florida. They brought in Bob at a high AAV and you need to support that move as best you can.

Plus, I would like to see what Coach Q can do with that defense.

 

[BruinsBtn]

Tippett has an unreal shot and outstanding vision. I don't think Florida should let him go.

 

[typicalsavage]

Guys, Lili didn't play well at all during the pre-season, thus why he is in the proposition.


It's a classic Leafs trade proposal of the piece they don't want anymore for way better pieces.

Yeah like Owen Tippet has done anything lol.

Honestly, this is not just Toronto fans though. For instance our fans do this constantly.

 

[DarthProbert]

So...OP's a Leafs' fan who wants those 2 Panthers players and never once looked at Florida's depth chart for even a second...am I close?

 

[Skin Tape Session]

Easy no from FLA

Easy no for leafs. We have a better RHD making five million less this year. Nylanders chemistry with Matthews outweighs whatever ekblad Could provide

 

[Man Bear Pig]

So its Nylander for Ekblad and two prospects who have very little, if any, NHL experience. I think it's closer than people give it credit for but if I'm Florida I'm saying no simply based on the fact that they cant afford to move Ekblad without getting a replacement in return who can take Ekblads spot. I've always liked Ekblad and still think he can be a #1 in time which is another reason not to move him. I also think Nylander should be a center, so it's not like you'd be locked in to a guy who strictly plays wing and nothing more.

well this is just wrong.

The Panthers can take their top 10 pick this year and package it for a top 4 dman.

 

[Spirit of 67]

And a cap dump as well,fla laughs!

Cap dump?

Not a Leafs fan.

Just a bad trade all around. Doesn't help either team.

 

[josra33]

Both teams say no.

He's only 20 years old and he didn't look terrible in preseason. He's just become more expendable with Sandin making the big club.

Yeah no, the fla package is not way better, he'll I'd rather William than that package.

 

[7even]

Honestly, this is not just Toronto fans though. For instance our fans do this constantly.

Everyone does it, across fanbases, across sports. It's a cognitive bias. People who try to pin it as being unique to one fanbase or another either lack any self-awareness, or are just trying to keep the guns pointed in the right direction, in which case they're just playing a boring game.

Some of you folks are going to look beyond stupid on Liljegren.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Might be something more like Nylander+Ceci for Ekblad+Sceviour but....Florida still says no.

For all the reasons people highlighted already, I don't think Florida can take the hit at RD.

 

[cowboy82nd]

The year is 2019 and we had the 13th pick this year, not a top ten.

 

[Leafidelity]

Ya no thanks

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Its not terrible but if I’m Florida I pass pretty easily because Ekblad is better and more important than Nylander and Florida needs depth on D not forwards

 

[Menzinger]

I hope someone bumps this by seasons end

Nylander isn't worth Ekblad, leafs fans are obviously delusional if they believe the opposite

Ekblad is not worth losing the chemistry between nylander and Matthews. Hf is delusional if they believe the opposite!!
