Trade and Free Agency Thread - 2022 - Off-season

[Leaf Rocket]

So that is the player I was thinking off. Surprised after all that hype the Habs gave up on him.

I think injuries also derailed the crap out of him too iirc.

 

[ULF_55]

To be fair to them have you seen how we talk about our prospects?

Until they do something like ask for clarification and then they're malcontents.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Yeah fair. Can't stop others from having ridiculous expectations. I definitely had some fun watching Hab fans talk Shane Wright up for weeks, franchise center, possibly generational, bergeron etc for that to all be for nothing and them to quickly do a heel turn on their stance

whatchu talking about

 

[ULF_55]

Robertson has been next to Matthews and Marner for 3 years now.

How many Calders has he won?

Going for the triple this year I bet.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I think me and someone else said this...Our prospect is the next Wayne Gretzky....and he couldn't even come sniffing near them.

How many Calders has he won?

Going for the triple this year I bet.

Calder Cup x2 and then the calder memorial trophy

 

[All Mod Cons]

How many Calders has he won?

Maybe. Needs to make the NHL full time first

Ha ha yes this is true.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

was supposde to sleep off back pain....instead im refreshing

How much of an upgrade is Murray at 3.x compared to Mrazek at a near identical cap hit that the leafs just paid to move?

Seems more likely it just buys Dubas time because it willl take a few months to a year for fans to realize Murray is also bad.

Also running out of picks and prospects to fix these mistakes..

You'd think any other GM would be on the hotseat but some people seem to think Dubas is doing a great job.

Our local media has a crush on Dubas because he always responds to their question answering them by their first name, which feeds their immense egos and gets him in their good graces.

He's also not a grumpy old coot like Mark Hunter or Uncle Lou or Brian Burke, so with that diplomacy he's thought of as being some sort of boy wonder, progressive, out-of-the-box thinker.

He may well be all those things but he's also just as stubborn as all those grumpy old coots, doubling down on this loser core and refusing to make changes other than window dressing the 3rd and 4th lines with cheap labor willing to play for their boyhood favorite team, not to mention the absolute shit-show that we have in net which is an absolute embarrassment considering this is supposed to be a championship contender

Robertson is Gretz and neimela is Paul coffey

 

[Brobust]

Miles Wood qualified by NJ.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Miles Wood qualified by NJ.

 

[Stigma]

Is Murray’s medical file “War and peace” or something? Holy smokes

 

[BertCorbeau]

Miles Wood qualified by NJ.

Damn

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

I’d really like Josh Archibald on a low cost deal; he is a hitting/forechecking machine.

Then I’d throw a lot at Nash for Jeannot.

 

[hamzarocks]

Damn

What happened?

 

[ULF_55]

What happened?

Life.

Miles Wood Trottier was qualified.

 

[hamzarocks]

Life.

Miles Wood Trottier was qualified.

Oh true lol

 

[BertCorbeau]

After a strong start to the offseason of trades the last 3 days have really gone quiet.

Need some action dammit.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Seems like the Leafs just found a great option for their goalie tandem.

Murray - Samsonov is risky, but that is a crap ton of upside for a low cost.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Is Samsonov any good?

 

[Peasy]

Hope they take a run at Samsonov

 

[Oskar The Groucho]

Samsonov was always my taget. Now he can be signed to a 2-3 year deal around $2-3 million. SO happy with tis move

Is Samsonov any good?

Think of Soups when he came to Leafs. He's a project but young enough to bounce back and a respectable 2B

 

[BertCorbeau]

Wow not even tendered? Caps going all in on Keumper.

My tune just changed a bit, Samsonov should be a top priority in a 1A—1B setup

 

[SprDaVE]

It kind of blows my mind Samsonov was not qualified. The Leafs should be all over him.

With that said, he hasn't been that great in NA. But I think he's the perfect young and high upside goaltender they need to sign up.
