Neither player is overpaid, even if both players were the 6th D their cap hits would be fair for their role. Can you explain to me how Holl is overpaid and why ?

He makes 2 mil/yr for a borderline bottom pair player.
Fine if you don't believe that is overpaid but then Dermott as the better player would have to be underpaid.
If he's that good the Devils are better off keeping him.
Also "being the best available" doesn't make you a good player. Even then, he's not the best top 4RD out there. The guys trash defensively, zero interest, please stop trying to push him on us. Nobody here wants him.

Neutral fan here. That seems like a steep price for Toronto to pay. I don't think they value Severson as much as NJ does.

He's bad, but he's still better than any leafs D-man defensively so what does that tell you lol

It tells me your opinion about the Leafs D-men is horrible and uninformed
Show the deployment and usage stats and relative numbers. So many people spout off with absolutely no proof.

Funny, you should read every Leafs fans post in this thread...irony at its finest
They are both fairly paid for what they bring, Also Holl has spent a good chunk of the year in the top 4 while Dermott has been used in an almost strictly bottom pair deployment.
Still waiting for the numbers, oh wait you have none cause you were talking out of your behind. Stick to senators player analysis your better off that way.Funny, you should read every Leafs fans post in this thread...irony at its finest

Hes still played there with moderately positive results. Its a 500k difference which doesn't make or break the leafs.

The issue isn't his salary, the issue is he's not very good and is a must to be upgraded before the playoffs.
I agree he needs to be upgraded upon, that doesn't mean he has negative value though.
Spread the word man spread the word. LMAO! It's great when we can get others to preach the truth. Saves us time and energy.
No
Liljegren has played less than half a season and is already showing he can be a top 4 D man nice he gains his confidence. Plus we add a first and Robertson.

The Leafs aren't moving Liljegren. The entire point of targeting a RHD is because that side has no depth, it literally defeats the purpose to trade our only young RHD. He's also had a very promising rookie year after putting many years of development into him and he'll still be cheap to re-sign as a RFA without much of a resume. He is one of the last players on the team I would expect the Leafs to deal.

I'm a Leafs fan, and I think Leafs fans are crazy for not wanting to target Severson...
I wouldn't want him at that price, but at 50% retained for ANOTHER year after this is very enticing.
He's playing monster minutes on a bad Devils team, and his numbers are quite respectable.
And also having a top 4 of Rielly/Brodie/Muzzin/Severson is solid.
The other thing is, he can fit into the teams system.

Your belief that " the world revolves around the Leafs" unfortunately isn't shared by Leaf fans. Though maybe it ought to be.
