Florida definitely considers trading their Cup winning, Selke winning 1C + a first immediately after leading them to their 1st cup

10/10 proposal OP.

Yea... this isn't a no from both sides. Toronto takes it and runs. Hell Toronto takes it 1 for 1 without the pick too

don't ya know?!?!? Florida could have been as dominant as the Leafs if they had Matthews and 3.25 less in cap space. Same applies if they had Marner...or Nylander....or Tavares. All superstar leaders.

Yep

Fantasy land is more factual than real life

There’s only 1 player in the league Zito would say a yes to on Barkov trade and that’s never happening


Barkovs value and meaning is everything to Florida Panthers organization. He’ll have a statue in front of their arena and will always be known as Mr Florida

Makes sense from Habs point of view,
So Florida doesn't make the playoff next year and MTL gets a great pick next year ;-)

I'd trade Barkov for Aho before Matthews. Not saying Aho is better at all, but as a player and contract, Matthews is a bad fit.

Florida laughs their ass off and hangs up

You consider someone who has never scored 40 goals and only surpassed 90 points once to be in the same tier as a guy who has twice scored 60 or more goals and twice exceeded 100 points? Seriously???
Well yeah one is a loser money hungry diva and one is a beast on both sides of the puck and a winner.

To me Matthews is like the 4th best center in the league with Barkov at #5. The contract difference is massive so barkov has a lot more value.

Matthews is probably slight better, but when you consider one has elevated his play in the post season on the way to the Cup and one has consistently been a let down , it’s pretty easy to see why Barkov could be viewed as just as good

You gotta throw in a whole lot more for the Panthers to even consider this. At a minimum, the 1st round pick is going from Toronto to the Panthers.
