Salary Cap: Muzzin OR Barrie (Pick One)

Poor Freddie he'll be lucky to finish with a 700 save percentage playing behind this guy.
Colorado was intelligent enough to understand that they couldn't properly allow both Makar and Girard to develop towards their potential with Barrie taking up the offensive role at ES and on the PP that he takes up. If the Leafs are intelligent they will understand the same.

44 is Rielly good
Re-sign Muzzin and play one of your LHD on the right side.
Rielly - Holl
Muzzin - Dermott
Sandin - Liljegren
You can look to package Dermott or Holl for an upgrade on RHD
Dermott + Johnsson?
I think with just a bit of tinkering we will have a pretty decent defense starting next year until at least Rielly's new contract.

If his ask is 8 million I sure as hell hope so...
He isnt worth even close to that, especially with how the leafs dont have a proper pairing to shelter him
Personally it would be a catastrophic error to sign him for even close to that. He isnt a good fit and wasnt from day 1. Only reason that trade was made is because it returned a 3C as well (if Kerfoot even is that long term), fit cap wise and Kadri just couldnt be trusted against Boston and that was bound to happen again at some point

Trading him yesterday is not quick enough for me. He doesn’t have a good head for the game. Last night’s pinch and hanging Andersen out to dry when its 6-1 completely infuriated me. I hate players like that who only care about stats in a contract year. Maybe we can get a second and prospect for him by moving him way out front of the deadline.
I can’t believe we lost Kadri and a third for this guy and Kerfoot. Dubas had to do it because he was fed up with kadri but damn thats not worked out good for us.

Dude what is going on. Lil is nowhere even close to Barrie. Not even close. Did you watch the preseason?? Dude cant make a first pass. He is so far away from Barrie and will probably never be close to the player Barrie is.

Have you watched an actual game of his this season? He has one of the best first passes on the team already.
Yes I have. Hes much better in the A but in preseason he was horrible at it. He hasnt improved enough for the show. Thats next year.
Comparing him to Barrie right now is ridiculous was my point though.
That makes no sense. He has 17 pts since Keefe. PP. Vet with playoff experience. Gets along with the guys. Chemistry. Why the f*** would you trade him??
Hahaha no he isnt. He hasnt even played an NHL game Barrie is on thw top pairing. How can you make that statement?

Typical Leaf Nation, knee jerk reactions are the way we roll.
Hahahahahahah. you haven't been watching him in the AHL. Lil has been the marlies best player.

I wouldn't want him at $5M nevermind $8M. This guy just exposed himself as the Jeremy Bracco of the NHL with his defensive liability. I think other teams are going to be very wary of paying him anything near that. Remember when everyone was saying Jake was going to get $7 easily? Pepperidge Farm remembers...

Yes he is better in many ways and will put up points with the forward talent to a degree we don’t know yet. It will be good fun to waych next year and hopefully this year. Barrie is a knob
