How has he looked over a span of 3 years?

Colorado was the worst team in the league two seasons ago, and the season before that he had 59 points in 76 games. I don't know when the trade rumors began, but those obviously affected his game as well. He's also 27.

A guy like Nylander would actually be perfect for this squad. Right shot RW/C. If you play him at C, you can run three pairs (Marchand/Bergeron/X, X/Nylander/Pasta, DeBrusk/Krejci/X). And you can throw Moore at RD and bring up Vaak in the short term if Carlo is the primary piece back. In NHL 2019 I make that trade every time.

But, those two teams are not trading. Especially not such big pieces.
I agree Nylander would be tremendous on this team

He scored a hat trick against Boston as a rookie and I was there and his skills, playmaking ability, hockey sense is high end.

If Toronto was in the Western Conference or say Columbus or Carolina it’s all there for a ballsy deal with the Leafs and Bruins

Nylander can be your future second line center and a stud

is this my craziest trade proposal ever?

step 1
trade our second round pick and something to vegas to get the islanders second round pick

step 2
trade cehlerik to the oilers for the islanders 3rd round pick

step 3
trade the islanders second and 3rd round picks along with someone like senyshyn for their future first round pick {just to keep everyone honest}

now lou lamerello has some fun and offer sheets nylander
a ONE year offer at 8,118,641
{this means Toronto must continue to pay 8 mill in future years to keep nylander rights even if they match}

now we do all this because we have a deal with the islanders.. they promise to trade us nylander if they are able to get their hands on him

we return their first and we give them krug and backes {assuming backes can waive his ntc to get a better chance to play on a weaker team like NY}

we get back senyshyn and of course we get nylander

our final cost to get nylander would be krug, backes, cehlarik, our second, and some minor sweetner.

we could only do this if nylander was willing to sign an extended deal at around 7ish. if hes seriously holding out for 8 we cant go near him

having pastnak/nylander and Bergeron/marchand and then maybe krejci/donato as a 1-2-3 punch would make us the most dangerous team in the nhl imo… mix in debrusk/Heinen/Bjork... its quite a soft lineup but sooooo much scoring depth

and it wouldn't even kill our cap. we move krejci in a year or two when a cheaper guy finally replaces him as 3rd line center. we let Heinen/Bjork go if they become too expensive... chara will be getting cheaper

Chara will be fine his skating and cardio out there look good his positioning and decision/making actually cost him.

Vaakanainen floor is second pair his likely ceiling is ‘first fair LHD sent from hockey heaven to play with Charlie McAvoy’

The Bruins left side in the organization is phenomenal

Hope so but we'll see.

I wonder what it would take to pry Eric Staal away from Minnesota if they are out by the deadline. Would love have him as the 3rd line center and his contract is up at the end of the year.

HNIC headlines saying Josh Anderson isn't happy in CBJ, dropped to the 4th line and not pleased.

And still got 3 goals in 5 games.

He scored 17 goals in his first full season with Jackets, 6 on the club in goals while only getting 12 mins of ice time (11th among their forwards). Basically no pp time.

Next season he scored 19 goals in only 63 games.

He is huge, can skate, can score, there's your perfect physical winger.

Would love him on Bruins.

Toronto in on Anderson

Panaren threaten to bolt after year

It would take balls but Toronto trades Nylander to Columbus who is the skill guy who replaces Paneran long term

Toronto could get Panaren for year and Josh Anderson long term

Works for their Cap and makes the Leafs insane up front

Or Nylander for 2 London Knights - Josh Anderson and Liam Foundy

I would absolutely do the first one on both teams but if Columbus want at least a 2 if Leafs win Cup

Josh Anderson is just what the Bruins need up front. A "Mini Neely" so to say. He has the ability to put up twenty goals and go with anyone. If he's available, I sure hope Sweeney goes after him hard.

As far as the leafs deal it makes a ton of sense on the leafs side but I think Kekalainen will demand a bit more, giving the possibility Panarin could end up resigning in Toronto and Anderson just isn't a throw in type of player. Perhaps the Leafs may have too add some picks as well as a conditional 1st if Panarin resigns and like you said win the Cup. With that being said I sure the Blankty,Blank Blank hope nothing like that happens. After all Anderson was born too be a Bruin.

I agree he’s perfect for us and with Wagner, Acciari, and Kuraly gives the Bruins four guys that could change a game with physicality

I still think his style and cap hit have to make Dubas drool

Speaking purely about info that is out there:

Lots of talk out there about an offer sheet and those in the media are saying it is confirmed by their sources. What is scaring them away is making an offer the Leafs can't match, but it all comes back to losing 4 first round draft picks and it's not worth it for "this" player. (Nylander)

Word is that the Leafs have turned their attention to Matthews and to get it done before Nylander and before the price skyrockets. Unfortunately for the Leafs, it already has. Word is Matthews is seeking the same percentage of the cap as McDavid, which would push Matthews above McDavid money.

Some think that will help teams with an offer sheet - one that the Leafs couldn't match - and bring down the compensation costs and put them in a bind to extend Mitch Marner.

I don't believe that is the case. The Leafs have $30 million in cap space for next year and if they get the 3 for $30 million or less, they have the tag space to extend all 3 today.

Nylander seems like the perfect player to throw an offer sheet at. But not worth the cost. And there are really only 8 teams that can take on the cap hit.

Via trade or offer sheet, I don't see how the Bruins could manage it.

Anderson is exactly the type of player they should be looking for. Always like him (right @DKH ).

There is no way the Bruins pay Nylander more than Pastrnak. Not sure why people are thinking of paying him $7 or $8m.

If you want to sabotage the Leaf's already porous defense, trade them Krug for Nylander and then you can score on them at will in the playoffs.

Poor Shanahan. None of the kids buying his take one for the team speech.

Looking back it seems he was pretty well compensate at the time for a guy ‘taking one for the team.’ What a bunch of crap.

Pretty good read on this:

Overall, Shanahan should really have kept his comments private, or at the very least think them through further before speaking to the media. Regardless, it will be interesting to see how far Nylander is prepared to go with his position, as he is now losing money every day he remains unsigned.

I also wonder how much Nylander wants to play center. Matthews-Tavares-Kadri won't leave any room there for a long time.

I had been saying that for a while, one of the stupidest comments by a sports president ever. Sure in a perfect world it would be convenient for players to take pay cuts for the sake of winning. There are so many factors at play however- NHLPA, professional integrity, contract stability... Also what message does this send to the rest of the NHL and potential UFA's?, If you aren Matthews or Tavares, be prepared to take a pay cut?

Maybe the Leafs organization might just screw things up after all.
