So, looking at potential trading partners for the Leafs, Detroit seems like the perfect fit to extract draft capital in return for the Leafs veterans.
Top of the list will be OEL. It’s pretty obvious that OEL would love to be on a contender, at worst, a playoff team and Detroit is at worst a playoff team and at best a contender if they make upgrades. OEL probably had some sentimental pull towards Toronto given the legends Salming and Sundin. He may have the same pull to Detroit which had Lidstrom and many other Swedish legends of the 90s.
Detroit has a lot of cap space to fit OEL without salary coming back to the Leafs. But the Leafs could afford to take back Gustafsson at 2 AAV to fill the ice time left by OEL. Detroit has not got the offensive production they had hoped when they signed Gustavsson that OEL has clearly provided for a bad Leafs team on a relatively cheap contract. Gustafsson could be given ice time to rebuild value and traded in the future as he has been a deadline rental many times before.
I could see Detroit wanting not only OEL but also a RHD like Carlo. Detroit is said to be looking for a RHD and Carlo could fit their needs as he would not be used as a top pair D. Again, they have a lot of cap space to make it happen.
The Leafs might be able to get a pair of 1st round picks for OEL and Carlo from Detroit.
Other candidates that could be moved to Detroit would be McMann, Roy and Laughton. I could easily see Detroit paying a 1st or a prospect for any of them for an attempt at a playoff run. The same could be said for Montreal and now Buffalo. I would gladly trade all 3 of them to Detroit, Buffalo and Montreal for a 1st round pick each.
Nope. I had Beleafs in this team up until yesterday.
you just like to shit on them.Exactly. You BeLeafed in this shit team. I did not. So you were wrong and I was right.
Calling them out for what they are is only “shitting on them” to a homer such as yourself. In reality, it’s accurate criticism of a franchise run by morons and financially supported by emotional retards.
Woll looks absolutely gassed. And Stolarz looked like beer leaguer the other night. They have some decisions to make going forward in the net. One of Woll and Stolarz should be moved. But they have a bunch of other players that should be moved as well.
The issue is: who is going to make these decisions? Is Tree our GM next year? If not, why should he decide who stays/goes? As usual, management of the team completely screwed up.
Name me a worse managed professional sports team over the last 55+ years.
Woll has never stayed healthy or played a full season. He also plays behind a team that gives up more shots and shot attempts on net than pretty much any other team.
Stolarz is the older version of Woll. Good when he’s good, bad when he’s hurt.
You can’t trade either one because Stolarz has a trash contract if he is not playing up to his standard and Woll is still a work in progress. Until they can build up their value, they won’t get anything for them. If they rebuild, they need bad goaltending anyway.
Leafs management is among the worst in all of sports. Treliving must be fired. He can’t be trusted to offload, draft or rebuild. He belongs at a Boston Pizza.
How was I wrong when I did not make any predictions like you did.
You didn’t think this dog shit team was going to make the playoffs week after week of me telling you they weren’t good enough? You’re just lying.
You’re definitely wrong for saying I just throw shit at the wall because I have clearly identified the multitude of flaws with this team at various stages of this season, time and time again.
UG, you through so much spaghetti to the wall, some of it bound to stick.
Moving players above 25 is not wise.
I was right, you were wrong.
Just like I’m right that everyone over 25 must be traded and this team needs to rebuild.
Did he predict all the injuries, which has been one of the main drivers for the leafs lack of success?
He simply whined about baby marner turning down the leafs good offer to run away to vegas.Yes, I actually did. I’ve been saying since day 1 Tanev is a huge injury risk with a trash contract. I did predict Woll and Stolarz injuries, as if that wasn’t obvious.
You’re just an illiterate libtard with a selective cuck memory.
How is Vegas doing? Oh right beat the Leafs twice despite having a multitude of injuries so much so it forced Marner to play center and using 4 or 5 different starting goalies this year. How was Marner last year when Matthews / the goalies werr hurt? Oh right 103 points and 1st in the division. Damn, must suck for you to be too retarded to realize why this team fell off a cliff.
I knew this team was medicore to bad but it’s especially embarassing to shit the bed, at home, to Buffalo, a team they’re chasing for a playoff spot on a night where they honor Sittler. Fucking disgusting. And these retards paying retarded prices for tickets were booing Marner? Boo yourself for supporting this trash.
Called it back in November.
Matthews can’t play defense without Marner. He keeps getting worse in his own end. And Tavares is like -13. What a fucking joke. Trying to play every game to win 5-4.
I dont care about that, it doesnt mean you cant win. Florida has 3 players they drafted, Barkov, Lundell and Ekblad, all the rest were signed or traded for.
the problem is trading for Carlo and Laughtons while Florida trades for Marchand and JonesYou should care about it because that’s the best way to acquire talent without a significant cost. Florida was excellent at finding value in players given away for free. The Leafs do the opposite, they let go of talent and don’t draft well enough to make up for it.
You know what else Florida did? They signed Bob. And people like you said they were stupid. The Leafs haven’t had an elite starting goalie in 20 years. They haven’t developed one either. They have two back-ups who are always injured.
Marchand and Jones wanted to play in Florida. Nobody great wants to play in Toronto. Not anybody who can win anyway. Just pajama boy and he’s a career playoff loser. The team isn’t strong enough to attract talent, the weather is shit, the taxes are absurd and management is retarded. You know what options that leaves you with? Learn to draft and develop players. Create a team through the draft that is so strong that players care more about playing here to win than all the negatives about playing in Toronto
