GDT: Trade Deadline Day

[Zybalto]

TSN panel gives Leafs A- grade for deadline.

 

[Ports]

He loves the city.. maybe pulls a Winnik and agrees to get dealt again next deadline to a contender

He can live in the city every summer and when he retires. If he’s still got game he’s worth more to a contender than a rebuilding Bruins squad.

 

[Smif]

Carlo or Seth Jones 25% retained? They got similar returns. I think I'd rather have Seth Jones...

One is $7M, one is $3M...

 

[darrylsittler27]

I'm not surprised. They have to win now or they are fired anyway. We moved some guys down a slot and got depth while unloading some not good enough players. Minten is a 3rd line C and the Leafs knew it. They aren't hard to find. We put Tavares over a barrel.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Where does this leave Robertson?

 

[Commander Clueless]

I'd probably take Seth, but Carlo is still $3M cheaper even with retention. So that helps.

 

[dubplatepressure]

Must be an incredibly complex trade if they're still processing it.

 

[Ports]

The Carlo trade excites me as I wanted him for years, reading the main board makes me sort of nervous but really not a fan of the fact that we traded our next two available 1st leaving us with non until 2028 and we are still arguably not favourites

So did all the other contenders.

 

[Zybalto]

20 games left and 4 of them against Florida/Tampa.

Looking forward to some great hockey down the stretch.

 

[Hotpot]

No first round pick in the next 3 years, Matthews is playing like a 8M center instead of highest paid player in the league, Marner and Tavares might be gone next year, and we lost our cost controlled 2/3 center prospect. Oh! And we are still probably underdogs in a series against Florida or Tampa......

Well..... we can't say we didn't go for it!

 

[Jmo89]

The important thing here is they were able to keep Holmberg.

 

[Metroid]

The trade board thinks every player the Leafs have/acquire is awful. They are not objective.

Minten is now a HHoF Bergeron replacement too I bet!

 

[Hotpot]

The important thing here is they were able to keep Holmberg.

It's gonna be
Holmberg - Laughton - Domi

Holmberg and Laughton should hopefully be able to cover Domi's lack of defense

Looking for a big offseason with the $20M+ in cap space available to them.

No idea how hard is it to confirm that the trade to Pittsburgh is:

To PIT:
Dewar
Timmins
Kyle’s favourite urinal from Scotia Bank

To TOR:
Rakell @75% retained

????

Im pretty convinced there's another piece not yet mentioned, but I could be wrong and they're just detailing the retention pieces.

We are not underdogs

 

[KMNRB]

I'd probably take Seth, but Carlo is still $3M cheaper even with retention. So that helps.

More precisely, It is Carlo in his prime (28, 29, 30) $3.4M vs aging Seth (31 to 35) at $7M.

I was hoping we'd get Seth, but given their contracts and ages I'll take Carlo.

Nashville is a scary example.

But it'll all be worth it if McJesus comes home!!!! I'm hoping Marner signs, Bennett signs, we trade Matthews and sign McJesus.

McDavid will come here when he's 45 with two knee replacements.

Holmberg - Laughton - Domi

Holmberg and Laughton should hopefully be able to cover Domi's lack of defense

I wish they unloaded either Kampf, Jarnkrok, or both but I actually think they would make a really solid line with Holmberg for the rest of the season. Overpaid for this season but that's a 4th line with finally some identity. Good defensively. Jarnkrok can slide up and down for injuries and Lorentz can rotate in as needed.

 

[BertCorbeau]

If the core flops again come playoff time at least there are some good supporting elements that they can retool around. Having the blue line and goaltending set is good.

 

[Commander Clueless]

15% retention on Carlo gives us enough space if Pacioretty is waived/LTIR'd I think?

 

[Warden of the North]

Most pleased that both under contract moving forward. That's really important.

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Florida getting Marchand is a horror show
