GDT: Free Agent Frenzy 2022

[Morgs]

Strome + Palat in and Nylander out for the 2nd line. Thoughts?

I'll block you

I'd expect the Leafs to be all over Weegar if he is available. I think the Sens have a lot of young cheap spare pieces the Panthers would want but I wonder if the Leafs could make it potentially work.

Leafs could use a RHD that can play high minutes. The 1 year rental might be a tough one though.

Id imagine we'd only trade for him if we know a guaranteed contract extension tbh.

Holl might be an appealing option for them.

Staal vs Strome brothers in a steel cage.

I think the Staal brothers win lmao

 

[Menzinger]

Seems as if the Leafs likely circling to pounce on some guys who miss out getting some bigger offers from other teams

Still expect ZAR to be inked by end of the day

 

[JSn0w93]

How much tougher are the cup champs?

Landeskog, Kadri, Manson, MacDermid (didn't play, but still), Erik Johnson, O'Connor. So to answer your question probably significantly.

Thunder Bay wins that one too!

Saw on the twitters. Would you do Kerfoot + Holl for Weegar?

They have lake superior running in their veins.

If we're getting back a 50 pt elc and a 1st than sure

Mercer + Devils 2023 1st I'd do the get Ryan Strome and Palat both at 5.5M

Deal holl and its only a 2M increase with 3 NHL wingers coming onto the roster

I'll block you

Thoughts on a Nylander for Risto+Deslauriers deal?

Yes

 

[Not My Tempo]

Genuinely surprised Kerfoot and Holl are still on this team.

You're on thin ice mister

 

[Cleetus]

Louis Domingue to the Rangers !!

 

[hamzarocks]

Thoughts on a Nylander for Risto+Deslauriers deal?

Yea sure. What are we getting for retaining 25% on Risto's deal to facilitate the trade btw the pens and flyers

 

[Tufted Titmouse]

I am not sold that we are worse than last year. We already had the worst goaltending in the NHL, I think this tandem is better.

Mik was good but he fumbled so many socring opportunities.
I won't miss Campbell.
Gio and Lilly should be mainstays now.
Boosh was probably our worst defenceman, so that's not a huge loss.

Tampa got worse, Boston is about the same, Florida got worse.

Ottawa got a bit better but I am not sold on Talbot and I don't think Giroux will add too many wins. Big question is can their core take a big step?

Detroit is still a mess of pieces, not going to compete with us.

Montreal will be a lot better, but still not a threat.

Wasn't something similar turned down by Dubas last year ? Kerfoot and Dermott? Oof missed op ( if reports were true). I'd do Kerfoot and Holl in a heartbeat

Not every deal happens today.

It was reported the Leafs like Kerfoot so I think it's unlikely they move him.

Holl should be a trade target especially with these UFA prices. But there has to be demand and a buyer. As the UFA market dries up, things will move to the trade market

 

[CapspaceKiller]

Crazy, all overpayments

Only 3-4 tough guys? The rest are the type that takes punishment.

Clifford, Simmonds, Gio, Rielly, Lub, we had guys who were willing to give and take too.

We were tougher than Tampa and the refs decided to call the tightest playoffs I've ever seen, so doesn't always work out.

 

[stickty111]

Thoughts on a Nylander for Risto+Deslauriers deal?

Sadly some part of our fanbase would actually do it

Yeah I know, just figured they would have moved by the draft.

I think Kerfoot migth be moved but it has to be for a player that assures a lot of ability of flexing in the top 9. I always was his biggest critic during his Avs day but man is a swiss army knife we can't replace easily.
