Confirmed with Link: [TOR/CBJ] TOR acquire Riley Nash for Conditional. 7th Pick in 2022

[Man Bear Pig]

Is there another player in the league who's this good defensively and this much of a black hole offensively?

 

[Teeder Keon]

Can we veto this trade now?

Please Don’t start the Anti Marincin stuff in this thread

 

[ViewsFromThe6ix]

our management is so smart, and I love it.

 

[Leaffan1991]

I know many won't like this because of lack of offence but Engvall doesn't provide much in offence either, 3rd Line C with Mik and Hyman creating a super matchup line.

That’s where you spend the large , as it should be ...
On big Brains and winners in management as we do !

He's like having a 3rd defenseman. Might be useful in defensive zone starts where you need to close out a game or shut down top lines in your own end and line change right after for a fresh Matthews/Tavares when in the OZone.

Yes , worse !
Engvall , but one difference , not good at either

 

[supermann_98]

Foligno is as good as ours.
We take on Nash’s salary/cash (LTIR)for Columbus and then they turn around and deal us Foligno at 50% therefore it’s like Columbus is not retaining on Foligno (because we took on Nash’s contract). Follow?

Sticky this prediction and make sure the TS posts this in the new thread if that is the next domino to fall lol

Basically Andersen went on LTIR to create room. We purposely didn't ask for any retention on Riley Nash's contract because he's not going to play any regular season game anyways, and then using that room we acquired Nash's 2.75M cap hit and the stashed him on LTIR as well.

So if I get that right, it should mean that the Leafs have more deadline $ than they had before this trade.

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

The Leafs have locked in their accumulating cap space number for the remainder of the season. All the dominoes will fall this weekend.

If we are going through pages at this rate
Imagine when we add Hall

Andersen didn’t go on LTIR to make room. Nash is on LTIR already, but he likely did go o LTIR to optimize how much relief we get.

He's a rich man's Freddy the Goat

 

[BayStBullies]

Didn’t he get hurt last week?

This makes no sense. Why would Dubas trade for him?

Read the thread. It's an LTIR move.

 

[LeafGrief]

This is a pretty wicked smaht move. Very clever to just trade for your own guy with the Kane/Kucherov cap hit.

I hope it's Foligno instead.

Looks like he did:



So they basically used the LTIR room, to acquire another player who is injured, and put him on LTIR as well.

Riley Nash is basically a 2.75M cap hit that is free for the Leafs*

*Provided that he plays in the playoffs.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Intruiging.

 

[Teeder Keon]

I hope it's Foligno instead.

Don’t mind that at all

 

[Mr Lahey]

Riley Nash is a beast on faceoffs. His career playoff average is 56.1%. Not to mention his defensive capabilities and the cap savings. What a pick up!

 

[Bellzy]

Foligno is as good as ours.

Could be likely yes, but why wouldn’t they do it all at once? I’m thinking Nash is our defensive forward and we make a trade for hall as well

 

[kb]

Hallmark time let's f***ing go

Hahahaha. Gold.

 

[trellaine201]

I guess most think we have another trade in place? Or close? Or just have the option to add in case we need the extra $1M?

 

[Jozay]

So either another move to clear salary or Andersen is done.

Frigg off lahey!
