Leafs trade Ersson to Ottawa for a 5th round pick. If the Leafs end up with shit goaltending, it won’t matter what else they do.
Nichushkin to the CBJ for a 2nd, 3rd and a 5th. That type of size is what the Leafs still need more of. Would have been nice to see them flip Maccelli and Robertson for the draft capital to acquire Nichushkin.
Seattle tried to pay Robertson 15 million a year and he said no. Don’t blame him. Seattle is a shithole.
Carolina trying to get Hellebuyck. That’s gotta be a three way battle between Florida, Vegas and Carolina. That’d be a huge advantage for any one of those three teams. It also seems that Andersen is going to become a UFA if Carolina is looking to upgrade their goaltending. Leafs being stuck with only Stolarz and rookies, maybe bringing Andersen back a cheap 1 year deal would be a good insurance contract.
yeah that ain’t happening as much as you would like it to happen.
When this team fails, which it will, they’ll be forced to trade Matthews. After Matthews is gone, the rest will flee the sinking ship.
It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when. Leafs would benefit the most from doing it sooner rather than waiting for Matthews to walk the way Marner did.
Now Chayka is saying he won’t move Rielly. It’s just more of the same stupid, dumbass bullshit that ruins this team. Same shit, different pile.
If Buffalo comes to the Leafs with pick #4 and #20 + a propect for Knies. Do you do that trade?
Nope. Trade Matthews and Nylander instead.
Keep hearing Matthews to a California team for 2 1sts. Seems like San Jose.
I don’t believe it. That would mean they are rebuilding, which I think they have no appetite for. Instead, they will keep Matthews and fail miserably, again. I would not be surprised if they eventually let him walk for nothing. That would be the stupidest move, so it’s perfectly Leafy.
I wish they would make that trade for #2 AND #9. The problem I have is the Knies roomors. I would prefer they keep knies. He is young enough to be part of a rebuild. Now that Byram is gone, maybe those roomers go away.
San Jose getting real “interesting” offers for #2 overall. Leafs could do something huge if they played their cards correctly. Here’s just an example.
Matthews with 50% retained for #2, #9, Misa and an unprotected 1st in 2027.
Nylander with 50% retained to the NYR for #5, #26 and Will Cuylle.
Trade down from #1 to VAN for #3 and #24.
Leafs draft Stenberg #2, Reid #3, Carels #5, Verhoeff #9, L. Ruck #24 and M. Ruck #26.

Jays are a worse team without Bo as they still suck at bringing in runs. He’s been much closer to his usual self recently, on a bit of a heater the last 20 games. Okamoto and Bo would have benefited greatly from playing together rather than this retarded “replacement” argument. Building a winner means adding pieces not losing pieces and trying to replace them.
Jays aren’t going back to the World Series playing like this without him either.
Flames looking for a 2nd for Zary. Signed for two more years at 3.75 AAV. I’d rather have him than Maccelli or Robertson. If the Leafs could flip one of those two for a 2nd and use that 2nd for Zary, the Leafs would be better off.
Not that big but a very good skater, good passer, could be a decent option on the wing in the top-six or opposite Cowan on the 3rd line. Could play C but sucks at FOs so that would have to improve.
