Which Defenseman will be high on the Leafs radar if Nylander is traded?

[Al14]

We want no part of Weber, especially for Willy.

Exactly!

 

[Polaris1010]

Why is Nylander considered damaged goods?

1. No heart, see the Boston series. People may disagree, others have considerable doubts.

2. No commitment. Like, he's sitting out.

3. No sensibility. Like is this guy a headcase? To use an old expression. He is sitting out, and losing money, to prove what?

Are you going to pay top dollar for that?

Obviously no. He has to prove himself all over again.

Now, if he returns to the Leafs, says it was a misunderstanding then all can be forgiven, given his age. If he departs, he's starting over, he has to prove he's worth it.

Willy has a defective noggin one hit from .....

This is not a good example of damaged goods unless you're talking about your own insecurities.

 

[Hogan86]

Manson, Pesce, Pulock would be realistic. Would love Dumba, but I doubt Nylander alone would nab him.

 

[Joe Lynch]

Brett Pesce! Seems the most realistic to me. Big, right-hand shooting defenseman from a team that needs offense. Nylander is worth more, so the Leafs might actually get Pesce and a pick for him. Make it happen, Dubas!

In another forum, I suggested Darnell Nurse for Nylander. I know he’s a lefty, but he imo, would be a terrific fit on our blue line. Now Hockeybuzz is saying that the Leafs and Oilers are talking about this same trade idea. Lol. Guess that ain’t happening!

I think ek is using you as a source (e5)

To each his own.

Keep telling the world how good he is while the Leafs keep reeling off wins!

 

[sxvnert]

Ideally Trouba or someone like him but realistically Colton Parayko++.

I think nylander is making a huge mistake ..Pasternak .s offer is off the table now ,
even marner ,they just are not McDavid or Mathews saw 3 better players than marner on Washington tonite ,both need bridge deals ,let Mathews be Mathews

I'd consider Nurse but they'd need to add maybe Pulju or Yamamoto.

I think you're in a heated debate with an imaginary friend. I don't post on here praising Nylander. I just don't agree that he's "damaged goods".

 

[tmlfan98]

No Tanev. He is absolute trash.

There is no way Tanev gets Nylander as a return. Nylander is worth way more.

Obviously Nylander would return Tanev plus. I never said Nylander for Tanev straight up.

 

[cipher]

I'd be ecstatic about that.
But for Montreal to trade him to the Leafs, and potentially make them the juggernaut favourite to win the cup...noooooot likely.

Nice try, Mr, Bergevin.

how lucky are we to have nylander's agent post on our boards

 

[OVO16]

Ideally,

Trouba
Paryako
Manson
Dumba

But all 4 are very unrealistic. It's one of the reasons, I just want to keep Nylander and work something out

 

[NikoEhlers]

Trouba trade could work, alone because Trouba want to leave at some point and need to be resigned, but I dont see Jets needing Nylander, so Nylander would be sent to some other place for a Center or a D. But Leafs should only sign Trouba if they can get him to sign long term

Parayko isnt happening

 

[Sniper99]

No Tanev. He is absolute trash.

There is no way Tanev gets Nylander as a return. Nylander is worth way more.

I really dont understand all the talk about Tanev on this site, hes not all that great.

 

[The Legend]

Pesce and Tanev at the deadline

Gardiner for a 2nd
Nylander for Pesce + 1st
1st + 2nd for Tanev


Rielly-Pesce
Dermott-Zaitsev
Rosen-Tanev

Make right d great again

Pesce is not a top 2 guy.

 

[Skin Tape Session]

I really dont understand all the talk about Tanev on this site, hes not all that great.

1 van fans overate their players badly
2. Rielly played well with him once for a short period of time
3. Toronto needs a Dman preferably a rhd
4. Nightmare fuel

 

[mariol329]

Nylander + to Anaheim
Josh Manson / Nick Richie
Addresses 2 huge needs
Reilly / Manson - just dirty !
Richie gives soft forwards some serious grit

 

[sittler rules!!!]

I like this but I think the Leafs will be adding for Pesce not Canes for Nylander
You won't need Tanev. But flip Gardiner and Johnson for a gritty LW like Kreider

Shea Weber would be near the top of their list.
I don't think many here would be happy with that.

I would be ok with that provided some salary retention. Likely 4 years of solid service before they find an injury where he has to retire. He likely won't want to play when his salary drops to $1MM.
