GDT: Trade and Free agent Rumours thread | Chayka off-season edition

  • If you are having issues logging in, we have found opening the log in page in a new tab/window rather than using the pop out should resolve these issues. We are working to get this resolved and thank you for patience.
  • Due to the increased volume of league transactions, the Trade Rumors and Free Agent Talk section is temporarily restricted to where threads may only be started by moderators and sponsors. We anticipate that this restriction will be lifted some time after the first round of the draft.
Get rid of this guy. He was only noticeable when there was zero pressure
I'd like to propose another possibility as to why he played better late:
It took him time to get used to a new city and team, all while getting used to a new (horrible) system that didn't use any of his primary abilities.

I don't think he makes or breaks the team either way but I'd give him another shot.
 
Some things may or may not happen. Not definitively saying they don't have the potential of maybe not happening immediately, and it may not even involve a player that might be traded, but word is they there are active discussions that are most likely definitely taking place. If absolutely anything happens, you heard it here first from me, Darren Dreger.

You cannot have two many smallish players up front. Like to only play one or two of Domi, Maccelli, Cowan and Robertson and Cowan is a lock. At a reasonable number, I'd like to see what Maccelli can do under a new coach if we can't find a better option before the draft.
 
That would be bad asset management. He was one of the few guys that was actually okay on both sides of the puck last year. We aren't tight against the cap. sign him to the QO, and then either trade him for value, or see if he can produce more in a better system like the rest of the guys.
When all is said and done, the leafs will be tight against the cap, and there won't be room for a middling player like maccelli.
 
Breaking News: Leaf GM is talking to people!
This feels like Dreger will be telling us “The Leafs GM was in on everyone, nothing broke, but he was very close. Just didn’t feel like he was getting the return he wanted and at the end of the day they decided to keep what they have and see what Hiller can do. Boy we were ready”
 
Not to mention that Maccelli's QO is over 4 million. I think that is too much for what he brings.

It really isn't. You're about to see 30 point forwards get well over 5M.

Maccelli should be retained if there are no trades that make sense. Letting him walk is pretty bad, but it might have to be done if they really don't see think he fits.
 
My wife is really paying attention to who the new players are cause she needs a new jersey. She has a Marner jersey and said to me " I can't wear this shit in public anymore" lmao :laugh:
I was gifted a Marner jersey while back. Wa curious if it makes sense to switch up the name and numbers, and where to even go for that or price..

People would be clamoring for those impacts on an unqualified RFA. Too bad it might be us letting him walk. Perfect guy to have on the 3rd line, and up in the top-6 for a switch/injury.
 
Where are the trades 🤔
