GDT: Trade and Free Agency Thread - 2021/22 PART X

[SprDaVE]

I could see the Leafs getting active here. I wonder if they'll try to bring Akhtiamov as well?

 

[Nylander88]

if Dubas could get Bertuzzi to play on the Tavares line, that would be awesome.

He is missing almost all of his games this week because he's unvaccinated and can't play in Canada haha I'd say there is absolutely ZERO chance with the way things are, that Bertuzzi comes here lol

 

[Holls Blackmail]

No surprise that Boston was able to secure Marc McLaughlin. He is a prototypical Bruins player who is a local kid.

That is a solid pickup for them.

Fortunately, Meyers is still out there, and we can always hope for a Jordan Harris or Jack McBain once their rights expire.

Yeah I hope we can secure Meyers. I feel like it will be impossible though.

McBain seems like very possible. Harris 50/50.

100% McBain would be the perfect 3LC for this team.

Saw Nylander trending on Twitter. Is he gone?

If Willie gets traded before deadline I'll eat cat poop

Lock it in Dubas.

Insider Trading links us to Jacob Middleton from SJS.

asking price is a 2nd and another pick or prospect

boston and Tampa also in the mix

 

[SprDaVE]

NHL Watcher (@NHL_Watcher) Tweeted: LeBrun on Insider Trading says the asking price for #SJSharks D-Jacob Middleton is a 2nd RD pick plus another pick or a prospect.

Leafs have checked in and have some interest, his physicality on the left side would be of use to Toronto. Boston and TB also in there.

This is absurd. This reeks of just attaching Leafs to a rumour. Who the hell is gonna give up a 2nd + prospect for Middleton. We don't need another depth defenseman at all.

 

[WTFMAN99]

It's trade deadline week, these guys are drumming up interest for sportsnet / tsn.

 

[Burnie97]

This is absurd. We don't need another depth defenseman. Who the hell is gonna give up a 2nd + prospect for Middleton.

I agree there. Not interested either. Nhl watcher has a bunch of tweets he just came out with.

Also people think Colorado still going to load up more. No surprise there.

Hmmm. Rather keep Willie but will be standing by

 

[Apotheosis]

Lindholm/Giordano and a goalie pls.

 

[fahad203]

Lindholm/Giordano and a goalie pls.

Funny youll get Chiriat and Motte
The answer is in the locker room.....as someone would say it

Maybe on an ATO or something, but not on an ELC. Nowhere near good enough to earn one of those.

It will be a crowded crease that is for sure.

 

[Burnie97]

 

[LeafChief]

A 2nd+for Middleton is laughable. When did Lebrun join Dreger in being a media hack?

 

[SprDaVE]

Not a good time to sit out Dermott

 

[Burnie97]

Not a good time to sit out Dermott

Probably not but if someone really likes Dermott they've been watching him anyway.

Columbus and Seattle with 2 here though and AGM for one of those teams.

Wouldn't be surprised at a Gio trade even though I know some people won't like it.

Not sure what's up with Columbus. Forward depth or goalie?

 

[Leaf Rocket]

isn't it funny how EVERYONE is now in with the leafs...and we known to be very quiet about our leaks these days.

Dubas probably would tell the media the wrong things too.

Texier I'd really hope.

 

[LeafChief]

Texier I'd really hope.

I think he just took a leave of absence from the Blue Jackets.

Right, completely forgot about that.
