You're probably not getting in the convo for his brother. Leafs don't need a 14M winger, as good as he is

 

[LeafEgo]

Col 1st + Cowan and we just keep Knies?

 

[Fogelhund]

Grabbing a RW will be difficult unless it involves a team that has abundance of them. Columbus isn't in that boat.

Philly is the only team I can think of with too many RW. They are looking at c’s in return though.

 

[Superstar]

I feel bad for the Kraken. It'll be hard for them to get a star player. They really need to just go all in on youth, or trade for young budding stars. Easier said than done, but dumping good assets for guys like Samoskevich isn't gonna help that.

They are trying to be Vegas without the perks Vegas got.

SJ and WSH.

I wouldn’t give up Cowan for McTavish straight up. Call me crazy. But 7M for someone who’s play has declined YoY, one of the worst skaters in the league, and scratched in playoffs while they had dusters on their 4th line.

 

[Hoser9]

Lebrun tweeted that MTL and Toronto were in on him today I think.

And source? google shows nothing about ur claim

Mason Marchment requested a trade out of Seattle this season and had a limited NTC - word is Tre wanted him and Toronto was on his NTC list.

 

[Puckstuff]

Fair honestly. A ton of cap space and no free agents probably made a lot of teams a lot more willing to go for it, both those things have been rough since the flat cap covid years.

It’s crazy to think Mason Marchment might be the best free agent forward this year so I understand the prices in the market.

The Leafs need to be careful as well with trading Knies or Nick Robertson because on top of the other needs we have, some bottom 6 wings and secondary scoring is needed as well and there’s not as many options this year.

absolutely not

The Capitals have an abundance of right handed players/wingers. Like it's a huge difference us and them. They also have AHLers like Miro, Parascak, Trineyev, etc.

They might have some interest in Carlo since they might need some form of NHL ready defenders that don't cost a ton... but no idea if they have interest in trading any of them. Miro is not getting in that lineup and he's turning 23 next year... might be someone they want to flip.

 

[MarlieParade]

SJ and WSH.

Philly, SJ, WSH, and NSH?

Not sure who else. I am sure there must also be a couple of teams with RWs in their pipeline who could afford to trade one.

I can see Carlo being a secondary option for the Capitals if they don't get the RD they want more.

I hope we don’t sell low on Carlo.
I think a lot of teams are going to be looking for a “secondary RD” option after the few in UFA are gone, and most are offensive based D.

 

[hamzarocks]

By tommorrow 10pm if the leafs biggest addition/move is Gavin Mckenna then I will be disappointed.

Get a Carlo or Rielly deal done at least if we are moving those guys

Lots of time left in the summer. Teams will get desperate to make moves.

No need to rush it.

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Im not trading rielly for nothing. He is a 2nd pairing D that can put up 40-50 points. His contract isnt bad. Good locker room guy.

Like he isn't a cap dump. He definitely has value. If we can’t get a good trade then keep him.

Same for Carlo. Guy is 3.5m for a 2nd to 3rd pairing D who shoots right and is big. Can PK.

The Caps could actually use a LW, but those are not difficult to obtain.

You mean once the alternatives sign for 7-8 M.

Prepare for disappointment

Really?

If the deals aren't there, they aren't there...

I want moves, but am more concerned about what the team looks like on October 1st than I am in what it looks like tomorrow night.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Devil's advocate: the Leafs were expecting to get a scoring winger from a desperate team last off-season or early in the regular season.

Wyatt Cullen.

Will not be a Leaf.
