SSSSHHHH!!!!

Are you trying to get flamed? A middling player, with a cap hit higher then his contributions being worth to his new team? That's only included for the consideration of the team trying to improve, and because he's redundant to that team after the trade? Especially when we're talking about specific teams in specific situations (in this case having 6 expected top six D and a number of potential call ups that will contribute the same value as the cap dump, but are cheaper and already in the system)?

Blasphemy, Holl is a perennial Norris candidate on Chicago!
That must be why Chicago released him .

Since it seems like Fleury could end up in Toronto why not bring some friends along ? Connor Murphy and Jake McCabe could be packaged as the Blackhawks are in rebuild mode now. They haven't had their best years ,probably because the whole team was in turmoil under Jeremy Colliton. This needs some real work done to it but it could be a winning ticket for Toronto. Possibly FLEURY , MURPHY , McCABE for HOLL , MRAZEK , DERMOTT , Roni Hirvonen , 2ND RD , 1ST RD . Opinion's ,tweek's . With Chicago retaining half of each guys salary of course.

What the Leafs desperately need is Nikita Zaitsev back to shore up that top-4.

D is not a major concern. I heard the stat during the game tonight that we give up the least offensive zone time in the league.

Obviously getting better is always good but with limited assets and a goalie disaster I think goaltending has eclipsed all other concerns.

Also Dubas usually does his big moves by now so I think we are just adding cheap depth this year.

Hope I'm wrong.

isn't this a discussion you could be having on your own board? seems you only have your own needs in concern anyways.

How about:

Fleury at 50% (3.5m)
Murphy (3.8m)

for

Mrazek (3.8m)
Holl (2m)
Dermott (1.5m)
Knies
1st

If that's too much, I'd be content with Knies + 2nd too, although that Mrazek contract is yuck.

This is a good proposal, maybe with just a little too much from the Leafs end. Fleury and Murphy are just what the Leafs need. It really eats into their shallow prospect/pick pool however. But I think Dubas knows if the Leafs lose in the 1st round again he's done, so he may be willing to do it.
