Post Deadline Transactions and Signings

There's no way. 3M until 2025 for someone struggling to produce doesn't seem like that makes sense.

maybe with retention ? Feel like a cheap guy to buy low on and he might get goign after he moves

I don't see Minny retaining 1.5M for 2 more seasons. If they did, I think it costs us the first round pick for a player on pace for 5 goals.

Apparently there’s been attitude issues going on with him. Dubas will def steer clear if that’s the case.

 

[aingefan]

If that happens, Tomasino is someone I’d love to get.

Ideally we flip Gustafsson for a 3rd. Use Boston’s 1st and the 3rd we acquire for Hayton and call it a day.


I’d consider Benn an NHL defenceman as well, he’s done fairly well when he’s played for us this year. That’s 10 NHL caliber dman. Not sure what’s the point of that.

Prospect for prospect sounds more like an off-season move, but I’d be interested in finding a C with room to grow like Tomasino or Glass in time.

There's good hockey talk and what not. Why not?

it will certainly be conducive to a good nap at the worst!!

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I think the same tbh, woll had a calm presence in the net.

 

[The Podium]

I thought Gustafsson would be relayed somewhere, but that no longer makes sense with him playing last night. Holl seems like the likely candidate to move which is surprising considering Keefes trust in him.

 

[TMLAM34]

I’d be a little upset if they went out and acquired a veteran goalie. There’s literally no point in wasting any kind of assets for that. Not to mention what it would tell Joseph Woll we think about him. The kid can play. Let’s reward him for all his hard work getting back from his injuries and playing lights out.

 

[thusk]

A defence man has to be moved.

I get the desire for depth, but 9 defenders makes no sense.

Holl is the one with value that is the most likely in trade and he’s a UFA. I don’t understand why he wouldn’t be move for a 2nd or 3rd. We aren’t re -signing him for the $4-5 million he will want as a UFA and we already have replacements in oir pipeline. Already he is not in the plans in a Top 4 role. Get something for him now.

Kerfoot’s play last night cemented he isn’t going anywhere, and while he’s not my favourite player, at least he shows up, plays hard, knows our system, and has stayed remarkably healthy. He isn’t being moved, so I’m just going to hope he goes on a scoring streak for us. It’s not like he’s not getting any chances….

If exemple brodie get injured again come playoff time

Whos #1 d to fit in? Holl certainly not an offensive dman in timmins or gustafsso to replace whats exemple brodie bringing defensivly.

Thats not making any sense at all right now to trade holl for a 3rd pick. Hes the best leafs security in case of injury

 

[ShaneFalco]

It would be a mistake to go into the playoffs thinking Murray can stay healthy

 

[MoreMogilny]

Moving Holl is the dream many of us have that you eventually need to wake up from. And when you do you realize he’s back on the top pairing

I will just be very confused if Dubas doesn’t move someone out to add up front. I don’t know how you can look at this team and our history of struggling with depth scoring and decide that moving Engvall out and Acciari/Lafferty in is enough for the bottom 6. I hope I’m wrong there.

 

[GoonieFace]

Can’t see them doing anything with the main roster, maybe some ahl tinkering.

 

[ULF_55]

An improvement on Bunting would be nice.

But is it 6 players already changed?

Gustafsson, Schenn, McCabe, Lafferty, Acciari, O'Rielly

Feels like I'm missing someone?

 

[SprDaVE]

Vrana would have been a very good target if he wasn't making over 5M for another season.

 

[TMLAM34]

Good thing we have Samsonov and Woll still!

 

[ShaneFalco]

ot to mention what it would tell Joseph Woll we think about him. The kid can play. Let’s reward him for all his hard work getting back from his injuries and playing lights out.

He's played 7 games total in the NHL.

Did O’Reilly spontaneously combust?

I get it you're confident with them - I am not

 

[TMLAM34]

Vrana would have been a very good target if he wasn't making over 5M for another season.

Considering Yzerman waived him earlier in the season, I wouldn’t be surprised if Detroit was willing to retain 50% of his salary just to get him out of there.

My only concern would be what issues is he having off the ice? Otherwise, definitely a very skilled player.

 

[Macallan18]

I'm hoping we add another excellent bottom six forward, and keep MM on LTIR until the playoffs.
Hell, everyone else is doing it.
And quite frankly, I am comfortable going with Samsonov and Woll if necessary.
So give Woll some more seasoning down the stretch and use any asset to add something for the bottom six.

I don't see Minny retaining 1.5M for 2 more seasons. If they did, I think it costs us the first round pick for a player on pace for 5 goals.

Yeah, I don't want to trade for players with 'motivational issues'.

 

[TMLAM34]

He's played 7 games total in the NHL.

And? Who’s a better third string goaltender given his AHL play and the few NHL games he’s gotten into so far?

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

Perron is the obvious add. If we can get Detroit to eat 50% he would be a great fit with ROR on line 3.

hefty contract there. Even at 50% he may be a stretch?
