GDT: Trade Deadline Day

[dubplatepressure]

That title still belongs to Tampa

arguable with this one. Either way not a race I want to be anywhere near winning.

 

[hamzarocks]

I would have done Cowan + 2nd for Rakell@50% retained + 3rd. If we are going all in, might as well go 100% in and screw future to try to win next 3 years

 

[Leaffan1991]

Has to be more. If not that's the worst overpay of the TDL this year.

I mean I think we are overvaluing Minten

 

[leafs in five]

I would absolutely be GMing like there is maybe 2 to maybe 4 years left of society as most of us have known it but idk I don't like either of these players

 

[cyris]

Has to be more. If not that's the worst overpay of the TDL this year.

That is a bit hyperbolic.

 

[LeafsFan89]

How are people calling this an over pay? Timmins and Dewar are useless lol.

 

[Evilhomer]

As of now, if Tkachuk remains out for the playoffs, the Leafs have a better overall lineup than both Florida and Tampa.

 

[ErnieLeafs]

I mean I think we are overvaluing Minten

Very much so

 

[BertCorbeau]

Has to be more. If not that's the worst overpay of the TDL this year.

Seeing the market this year that price isn’t bad.

A 1st and a B prospect for a top 4 d-man

Timmins and dewar are thrown ins

 

[hamzarocks]

My

For Knies nobody except Makar and that would never happen.

My god do you guys say the craziest things sometimes

Knies better win a smythe thid year the way people having been valuing him

 

[Evilhomer]

How are people calling this an over pay? Timmins and Dewar are useless lol.

Less than useless.

 

[uncleben]

New Toronto defenceman Brandon Carlo on his possible role joining the Leafs:

I'm more on the defensive side

BIG if true!

 

[dubplatepressure]

That is a bit hyperbolic.

We'll see. Up there with the Coyle deal at the moment, to me. I do like Carlo, but the price is too high as-is for me to like it.

 

[Evilhomer]

Some people are way over-valuing Minten.

 

[Gallagbi]

So we're looking at

Adding: a 3rd (maybe 4th) line winger + 4/5 D
Losing : 2026 first, 2026 first, Minten + spare parts

Rough

 

[Phion Keneuf]

How are people calling this an over pay? Timmins and Dewar are useless lol.

Both have nil or even negative value tbh

 

[Hotpot]

If the LD is Hughes.

Carlo, McCabe and Tanev are all Dman who can play first pairing minutes if their partner is Makar, Hughes or Josi or Hedman. As they are all capable of the #2 role.

In a way, I can even see Carlo partners with OEL.

Leafs never have 5 No.2 and No.3 Dmen at the same time.

Rielly - Carlo. Let's not get cute here.

 

[Gabriel426]

Would you rather have Rantanen at 9.5mil and 12mil for 8 yrs or Laughton and Carlo plus a 7-8mil player like Boser or Bennett for the next 8 yrs?

 

[All Mod Cons]

Some people are way over-valuing Minten.

Welcome to Leafs prospects.

I don't care as long as we keep Danford. He's crucial if he develops properly.

 

[hamzarocks]

So we're looking at

Adding: a 3rd (maybe 4th) line winger + 4/5 D
Losing : 2026 first, 2026 first, Minten + spare parts

Rough

The firsts are only thing that matter there IF Laughton sucks and Carlo sucks

Minten now that we can be honest is a nothing prospect who cant produce at any level of hockey he plays at.

The 1sts suck if these guys suck for us and cant push us forward to deep runs.

 

[Evilhomer]

The Leafs were never going to get Rantanen, so who cares?

 

[RomanianLeafs]

Danford and Cowan are Brad picks they will remain here, Minten was Dubas last big pick so I was expecting that

 

[Malachi Crunch]

Underrated highlight of the day: Robinson not traded.

They're currency if not used.

A bottom 6 forward and a 4/5 D is less than ideal

 

[jiggy35]

Needed a 3c and a top 4 RD, we get a 3c and a top r RD with good cost control without losing any major roster players, and people are upset smh
