Garland @50% for Kerfoot + Boston 1st?

Doesnt seem too bad of value. Would you use Garland as a scoring threat on the third line or?

There was talk in January from Dhaliwal that the Canucks were thinking of buying out Garland, and now he get's a 1st + just because??

What on earth???

I'd use him as a middle 6 forward, much like Kerf. He's a smaller but more tenacious forward than Kerf and actually shoots the puck, unlike Kerf. He'd get eaten alive in the Eastern conference playoffs though.

What would it cost to get Chicago to retain 50% on Sam Reinhart?

BOS 1st to FLA for Reinhart
Good prospect (Hirvonen, Niemela, Robertson?) to Chicago to retain 50% on him,

Make cap space with Kerfoot or Holl

Profit

I can't see VAN retaining nearly 2.5M for that long. They are outwardly trying to clear cap. They could probably clear Garland for nothing next season if they just hold on to him and put him in a scoring role for the first 20 games.

Brucie is the man!

Bruce there it is

Okay credit to TSN, this Bruce passionate speech idea is awesome.
If we win it all, I would actually bring Bruce and hand him a cup and go around with it.

 

[MCR74]

Tuned into the TSN show, heard someone refer to the Sens as the 'team of destiny', tuned right out.

Also, if going all in means keeping Kerfoot and his $3.5M hit, then Dubas deserves to be fired. Stubborn bitch.

Destiny of what? Getting pounded by Boston?

Almost like he's worth considerably more at 50% of his AAV. Also Vancouver is run by morons.

That is actually pretty creative.
I don’t know that either of those teams would do it but it’s definitely thinking outside the box.

They would be retaining half his salary though. I think Garland at sub 2.5 million for 4 seasons is probably a decent asset no? Also I figured Boston's first is basically going to be an early 2nd.

Seriously? I mean.....we need to consider this.

True, you don't think his feistiness would thrive in the playoffs? Just get boxed out to easily?

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Serioiusly?

Garland at $2.5 mil for the next 3.5 seasons is a solid asset to have. Even if he’s just a slight upgrade over Kerfoot.

What would be the cost of the buyout? That would be the only reason I could see them retaining 2.5 for that long. I also think they may be able to stick him with Pettersson and inflate his stats as you mentioned though.

 

[BertCorbeau]

I think the Leafs are done

Well, the Titanic was a ship of destiny. Jus' sayin'.

 

[WildWolfdog]

No thanks. Karlsson will turn back into what he has been for the last 5 years soon enough.
A guy who plays 50-60 games and gets 30-45 points while making Rielly look like Slavin defensively.

Karlsson is probably going to end up in the HOF for what he did earlier in his career but he can’t stay healthy. He has had an amazing year but I see this season as the outlier on the back half of his career

Perhaps - but he could also be over his injury and playing well again. Plus the contract only has 4 years left versus the 7 year left for Reilly.

I mean it'll never happy so it's all just hypotheticals anyway.

Will this be the year that kills the deadline day show?

Been wondering this for years. Got to think it's on it's last legs, especially with other more modern ways of consuming updates. Why sit in front of the TV all day when everyone important is giving up to date info on Twitter?

 

[Leafs98]

Will this be the year that kills the deadline day show?

You mean no one wants a trade week in review show ? More painful than a world juniors intermission or plays of the year..and again and again

Proposal:

Bunting to Edmonton for Holloway and Kostin
