What should the Leafs do


  • Total voters
    221
  • Poll closed .
Aside from a Markstrom or Saros trade which I know is not going to happen, I would be targeting the Seattle Kraken because they have everything this team needs.

They have the PK forward I want in Wennberg.

The depth scorer I want in Eberle.

And the top 4 D that I want in either Olesiak or Larsson.

They have everything we need.
Eberle is actually a decent playoff performer. Had some good runs with those Islanders teams.

Who knows if It's true but I did read on The Fourth Period's website a couple weeks back that Treliving is interested in Eberle and I think that's a solid addition
 
Would you move Cowan and a draft choice for Crosby and a dman. Is this team close enough to winning .
How about also Minten for Tanev. Would this push us over the top.
I know cap etc, but the issue is are we only 2 players away?

Personally, I think not so Don't waste your time and future.

If Pittsburgh ever decided to trade Crosby, I think it would cost a whole lot more than Cowan and a draft choice.

How many moves did I say they should make? I said two D men are needed……

nah its fine

i just said you can expect a great result with as much new player coming after TDL

team chemistry/team spirit is more important than trying to get the best team on paper

Sorry, you miss the point.
Would you trade the potential future for 2 or 3 players of this quality. Dubas might do anything, if not Crosby, the Malkin, how about Stamkos for Cowan and a first round pick?

Is this team close enough to go all in? Do we make the Andy Bathgate move again.?

Stamkos would be another example of Leafs acquiring a player who's Best Before date was here... .you think Tavares has struggled....

This team needs a partner for Rielly.... we've only been saying that for what... 5, 6 years?

It would be hard not to throw everything at a motivated Crosby

What you say is true. But for 3.5 months, to have a parade on Yonge Street, do you give away the futuŕe, to obtain 3 players of high quality? Is this team close enough that adding Stamkos, or Crosby or Malkin, Hanifin, or whoever would put us over the top?
Would you take Schiffle and Connor from Winterpeg for Cowan and Minten?, then get Hanifin for a first?

Are we close enough for the risk?
 
I feel like if Crosby moved, it would be at his request, and his chosen destination. I feel like it might not be quite market value... but then, I doubt Crosby moves.

Winterpeg aren't sellers, and wouldn't do that trade, it's not enough. We don't need a Hanifin.

Stamkos isn't high quality anymore.... he's still good offensively, but terrible defensively now. He's basically a liability. Malkin is the same. Crosby's good, but let's be realistic... nobody you've mentioned, except maybe Hanifin are even available.

I’d say that goes double from year to year, the Leafs must hold the record for player turnover year over year………

In that case, for Crosby, damn straight. That man is a winner through and through. I sell the farm for him.

But is a couple of good aging vets enough to put us on Yonge Street in June.
Bathgate and McKenny did, at the price of some very good young talent, Brown Seiling, Duff and Nevin.
 
Right Shot Dman to play with Rielly long-term, that's it.
Lots of right shot D available after this season so if we cant acquire one of them for cheap at the deadline, I would wait it out as this team will require cheap players over the next 2 season and this doesn't feel like the year you go all in.
Save the assets for next years deadline when you know you have JT and possibly Marner coming off the books and you will have caproom

more i think about it and more Dumba ciuld make sense for leafs.

hes not as hot than what he was like 5 year ago but he still a d whos able to eat a lot of minutes. Between 2018 to last post-season, the only time Dumba was not team leader for time of ice at 5v5 was last season( it was brodin and dumba was #2)

he never put his team in trouble, hes physical, hecan play in a top 4 over 25 mintes/ game... his price will not be extremely high

If you thought they get you over the top, 1st, minten, 3rd, 4th, maybe 5th for retention.
Cha ching, why not, this team can either ride out this year and next then try to fix things or blow it’s load and go for it………
