If Kane would waive for leafs I’d probably do it. A lot to give up, but would definitely complete our top 6.
He'd be top 4 on the Sens rosterIs Connor Murphy a top 4 D? If so, I'd love for the Sens to get him.
Props for not making this about Kane.Trade #3
To
C Max Domi
D Jarred Tinordi
To
LW Sammy Blais
RW Jaroslav Chmelar (Rights)
Rangers 2023 2nd round pick
Rangers 2024 2nd round pick
Rangers need C depth and Domi playing C with Hawks this year has been good not only offensively but at faceoffs (56.7%) while on Rangers only Trocheck is above 50%. It's a major struggle point for Rangers at this point
Rangers have also struggled with regard to bottom pairing LD and Tinordi going back to NY solves that issue. I suspect they didn't think they would actually lose him on waivers before season (Thus allowing them to put him in minors for later callup)
For Hawks Domi and Tinordi have played pretty good for Hawks this year (Two of the few you could say that about) and would certainly be upgrade for Rangers on current C and 3LD/Depth situation. Hawks acquire a 2nd in this year's draft, recoup a 4th in future draft they are lacking as a result of trade. Chmelar is also an intriguing Longterm project as a prospect who just began his NCAA career. Blais is simply in for cap/roster reasons
Rangers already had Tinordi and barely put him in the lineup, so no interest in him.
I would do Blais + 2024 2nd for Domi though.
Nothing vs Domi, but no interest inn Blais +/++ for himI’d do Blais and a 4th for Domi but that’s about it. MAYBE a 3rd
losing in the first round is going to get dubas fired tooTrade #1 would definately get Dubas fired.
He's the best american born player of all time and would easily make the leafs cup favorites. Gotta give to get.Expected to see Knies and say no instantly. I am impressed he is not in there but that is a hell of a package for a rental. My goodness. If he had another year of term on his deal I think the value is fair.. But
- a top 6 winger prospect already getting NHL games
- one of the Leafs better prospects who also plays with an edge
- an unprotected first potentially next year which we don't know what direction the org is taking. For all we know another blown playoff and Matthews refuses to sign and is dealt and the Leafs retool without their first.
- and another pick
For 2 or 3 months of Kane? I REALLY want Kane, but that is truly a MASSIVE package and franchise altering trade. I am not sure a rental has ever returned a package like that.

Unless Kane is coming with an exception, I wouldn’t make anything close to this deal for a rental. Robertson has shown he can play in the NHL, consistency is something he can develop.Trade #1 would definately get Dubas fired.
Murphy bring zero offense but at the same time even if it is his strength he isn’t really know for is incredible shutdown ability or zone coverage, he is a good skater and big he can play 20min a night in the regular season not sure he going to cut it in the playoff for a contender. Also isn’t he a RD with 3 more years at 4.4M$… I feel like EDM need a LD to play with Barrie or Bouchard also probably need some that has a lesser cap hit term or that actually has a track record of being able to do the job… a 1st 23 or 24 plus 2 NHL body seem pretty expensive not even sure if I consider it a contingency for EDM but everyone in CHI is more than willing to pull the trigger.I would do the Oilers trade if it was the 2024 1st pick. Puljujarvi and Murray are just fillers and meaning nothing
Sounds like hyberbole. Hirvonen + late 1st + the worse robertson brother aren't some kind of game changing prospects that you might think they are, but only on HFB do prospects have more value than players currently playing. Leafs best chance to win is now, they need to stop p***y footing around and just go all in on a forward like Kane or a bonafide top 4 defensemen to solidy their depth if they want to have any chance of winning it all.There's giving to get and there is potentially destroying your franchise.
It's not in his character to try and make a trade to save his ass. If the Leafs fire him he'll be employed by next season and will 100% be a GM again some day. If he makes a deal he thinks it's a good trade
this one sided baitclick article needs to be confronted, so it may be pummeled into submission!!!Read an interesting article on FB today. Kane makes sense to NYR for a lot of reason in this article.
Mainly due to Panarin in NYR and Rangers have the first round picks that Chicago would want as well as prospects.
