As a fan of the Reign and the Leafs I have a lot of interest in Cal Petersen. He looked solid with Ontario and prior to slumping this season was poised as Quick's successor. I didn't really think the Kings would entertain moving him, but some fans on here have indicated otherwise and I thought it was worth gauging his value.

The Leafs need to move Mrazek to entertain this and I personally value Petersen higher but he does have a more established career and is a decent rebound candidate as a backup for Quick. It's debatable how much more Petersen is worth given they both struggled last season but given age and injury history I'm more than happy to give up the more valuable asset with him.

Thoughts?

I hate moving Sandin and value him quite a bit more than a 2nd but with our depth at the position it appears management may not see him slotting in right away, making him expendable.

if LA is taking on Mrazek than no thank you for giving up the 2nd...like Sandin and I think LA should target him as it sounds like there may no be room for him in TO.

Why wouldn't the Leafs just resign Campbell if 5M isn't a problem.

Campbell > Peterson and we don't give up Sandin in this scenario.

I guess to get rid of Mrazek?

I would agree though that although I do not like this from LA's POV it also does not makes sense from Toronto's.

If Sandin does want out of Toronto what would the ask be on just him?

I actually don't see the two as being mutually exclusive. In this scenario we're dumping approximately 2 million in cap space, meaning we actually have more space to sign Campbell than if we don't make this deal.

I like the idea of running a Petersen/Campbell tandem.

I don’t like the idea of paying Campbell 5M a year. What the hell has he done? Not saying you suggested that, just asking in general. That tandem could work, but Jack can not be taking 5M of the cap.

There are less expensive ways to get rid of Mrazek than shipping out Sandin. Just buy him out if you can't find a cheaper cap dump trade option.

And as for Petersen, there's certainly potential there but also question marks, whereas we know that Campbell fits well in Toronto.

Rasmus Sandin is 5’11 and not very fast and physical.
Why LA needs him again?
I do not like Cal Petersen, but he is > Petr Mrazek

If you don't mind 10m in goalies, then you should want 8m and keep mrazek until his trade value becomes a positive hopefully by the deadline.

If the cost of moving Mrazek is adding Sandin and getting a question mark goalie back on a 5m contract, I would rather just see what Mrazek can do next season.

When Mrazek made his (2nd) comeback before his (2nd) injury (lol), he looked like a legit 3-3.5m guy. Still overpaid, still inconsistent and injury prone, but not quite Nick Ritchie levels of play. He may not have value, but I don't think it's this bad yet.

What about something around Matt Roy for Sandin?

Would be awesome for us, but I think LA would want to make a big upgrade in a Roy deal. He's real good. Sandin still hasn't shown he can play at a higher level than a depth guy.

Stick with the plan and give Cal another go to pass Quick. Peterson should make it and his value will improve then make a decision to trade one of the LA goalies. Probably Quick due to age, value and prior injury history. Cal was very good at times. Mrazek, no way. Sandin not only 5 11 but low on offense and -4 in the playoffs. I thought positive of Sandin until I looked at his stats. Asking for a 2nd and taking AHL material MRazek makes this trade a fleecing. Grundstrom, Durzi and Bjornfot all look promising. Muzzin didnt move the needle for Toronto. So the exercising of the subconscious need to get one back on LA is a dream state only endeavor.

A similarly regarded and recently drafted C/LW, RD or goalie prospect who has their path currently blocked but who has shown skill and ability but can’t crack the line up full time due to roster construction or holes in their game that still need polishing.
No idea of all situations and I’m sure all these guys have wildly varying values so don’t roast me over me being a “dumb leaf fan” and suggesting 1 for 1 any of these, but something like knight in Florida, one of LA’s forwards, frost or Hart in PHI, Kravstov or maybe Kakko or laf if the rags sour on one of those top picks and leafs add….
Something where the upside is still similar and so is the risk, but the position is different.

If you're going to be paid $5m as a goalie, you need to be a 50+ game #1.

His most recent season is far from inspiring, and while you shouldn't write off a goalie after 1 bad season, I don't think he's proven enough for a good team to gamble on.

Did you see what the King's were running for defense last season? :laugh:
