It's no secret that I am a lifelong Leaf's fan but most of my watching these days are the Coyotes. The talk out of Toronto all year is upgrading D, getting Cap relief, and lately the need to upgrade the backup to someone who can play roughly 30 games. No matter how they want to approach it Toronto will have to give up some assets to continue forward. They have a few players that are engines in the new NHL so I find myself wondering how the Coyotes can be the beneficiary of a move??? Players probably available in Toronto in some combination are Marleau, Zaitsev, Kadri, Brown, Hyman, Kapanen, Sparks, and Johnsson.
I'm very comfortable with our goalies as is but would you consider doing Keumper, a 2nd pairing D, and a cost controlled winger for some combination of the Leaf's suggested available players? I think Marleau at minimum must be included. Personally I think Zaitsev is actually going to earn his money in his next destination but It's ok to disagree. Kadri is the piece I want in a deal but what else??
