Proposal: Leafs-Flyers

SanAndreas said:
I don't think he meant an all star appearance means he's on par with the superstars.

Fact is leo is a solid middle six forward still under 30.
He is very capable of being a 20/20 player and he hits everything.
He is a leader in the dressing room and was even given the captains stall after the neuf trade.

Any team in the east would have to overpay.
End of discussion really

He called the guy an All Star player, not sure what else that could mean in the context he used
 
Based on what the OP has offered for Komarov, there is no deal to be had here.
Next.

What is your point?

When comparing player A to player B and using "player B was an All Star", that is used to enhance player B's argument vs player A.

You said he wasn't trying to say that but there's no other reason somebody would say player B is an all star if it wasn't used to build up the argument for said player vs another player. Try to comprehend that explanation, might be a little hard and I get it but at least try.
 
Rebuilding Toronto is not going to trade a quality gritty checker and veteran player for a 38 year old D.
 
Streit is a bad fit for the Leafs, perhaps we could interest you in a slightly used Andrew MacDonald?
 
We (Leafs) do have a log jam up front and Streit could help mentor the young guys, however the Leafs would say no as Komorov is a guy they would like to keep because he plays a hard working style that the team needs to learn

Im pretty sure Leo is much better Mentor for Young Kids than Streit.

Actually Leo is one of the best off ice mentors there is in the hockey world.

Based on what?

Mark Streit was/is:

-Captain of the ZSC Lions from age 24
-Captain of the Swiss national team
-Captain of the New York Islanders
-Assistant Captain of the Philadelphia Flyers

I guess you're only talking wingers?

Anyways, Schenn is also better. And I'd rather give the spot in the top6 to a younger player like Konecny or Laughton.

(Edit: I'd love to have Komarov though if that means Read or Raffl are off the books)

It doesn't make sense to anyone and that's why this thread has just become a pissing match between two fanbases with some others trolling in.:laugh:

And a quality gritty checker who has very strong leadership qualities that a a young, rebuilding team desperately needs

Depends how Streit plays going into the deadline, but if it's something similar to last year, I see Streit as more like 2 2nds or a 2nd & 3rd kind of player. I am fine with that and it could get to the first level if he players close to the .5 PPG player he was into the later stages.

On value, this trade favors the Flyers, but not sure what sense this trade makes for either team at this stage of the offseason.

I don't think Streit will even be able to get a 2nd if he plays anything like last year. He was a huge defensive liability and his offensive game & skating really fell off the map. Maybe it had something to do with the surgery on his pubic bone, but I don't see him returning much more value than a 3rd & 4th unless a good team loses a key offensive defenseman and is desperate.

And Streit was named to the World Cup Europe team. It's meaningless really.

?????

He would be the 6th best forward behind G, Voracek, Simmonds, Schenn and Couts. Leo would push Raffl to our bottom 6, but that is all.

But again, please note that pretty much every Flyers fan in here says the Leafs have no reason to do this deal.

And in the long-term I rather see Konecny in that top 6 role with G, Voracek, Simmer, Schenn and Coots. We have a plethora of middle six forwards, no need for Komarov (note: this is not a knock of his value since everyone seems to take offense to the idea)

Komarov is a 29 year old grinder/power forward that had 19 goals in 67 games last year. You may not like him but he's a more valuable asset than Streit.

Flyers consider "touching" it.

The Leafs do not.

More valuable then Streit ? BwaaHaaaHaaa. Komarov has played what 170 NHL games, and has 70 points ? Streit has more points then that the last 2 years !!! SOME leafs fans are dilusional.

Streit is still a top 3 defenseman where Komarov is nothing but a 4th line center on the Flyers

I have to admit, after so much stuff against Matthews/Marner from Finnish posters, it's weird to see the homerism in the Leafs favour this time :laugh:

Leo's a fine player Philly should want, but that is certainly overrating him.
