[SHANNYPLAN]

Who would you take as the 3C on the Leafs?

Contracts, Age, Skill, Physicality, etc. considered

Lowry hits more, is bigger, but Kampf is good positionally and is big and strong in his own way. FO win% about even.
I'm pretty happy with Kampf, he's outscoring Lowry who is looking more like a black hole offensively.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Kampf due to contracts. Lowry would require some cap finagling that might mitigate the gains of his addition.

 

[ACC1224]

Is there some indication that the Leafs are looking to replace Kampf with Lowry?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Easily Kampf, mostly due to contract.

 

[Ashdown2]

its 3.25 mil vs 1.5mil ........... not really a fair fight

i would say if they made the same amount, i would rather have lowry

 

[LeafChief]

If contracts were equal, easily Lowry.

With contracts as they are, I prefer Kampf.

While I wouldn't argue against Lowry being better, I would be hesitant to state that Lowry is better to the tune of more than twice the AAV. I'm not even sure if the Leafs could benefit from Lowry being locked in long term considering the team's overall cap situation and the two players that would be ahead of him on the depth chart. Seems like this is a vote for Kampf.

Kampf, Lowry would be nice but just not at that AAV.

I don't think so but you know it's never too soon to start speculating, however Kampf aside, I do think Muzzin does need to be moved

If cap space wasn't the object we would still have NAZ as our 3rd line centre.

 

[Martin Skoula]

If cap space wasn't the object we would still have NAZ as our 3rd line centre.

He's worse at the 20% offensive zone start shutdown job than they are. Naz would be a top-6 winger if he was still here and would be putting up good numbers, but we'd still need a shutdown 3C because he sure isn't one.

 

[Isaac Nootin]

I prefer Lowry the player, but contracts make it close.

If cap space wasn't the object we would still have NAZ as our 3rd line centre.

No we wouldn't.

 

[Twine Tickler]

Both are good players, I just love what Kampf brings. He has been such an amazing addition.

I remember when we signed him, for 1.5AAV no less, and panicking because I'd never heard of him before lol. But my god, was he exactly what we needed for years

 

[Menzinger]

Kampf gets the edge due to contract and specialty skillet.
