Trades and Free Agency - 2022/2023 Trade Deadline Edition

Dominoesssss

Which would mean Kane is staying put

 

[Peace Frog]

Regarding the whole Nyquist situation, if Dubas traded for him, could he place him on LTIR until the playoffs and gain his $5.5M in cap space to use at the trade deadline?

 

[leafsfan5]

NYR is putting together a really good team

Zibanejad, Panarin, Tarasenko, Kreider up front. Fox as their 1D, Shesterkin in net

Wouldn't be surprised if they made it out of the Metro again

Bo and now Tank going helps set the market for the Leafs’ needs

 

[Buds17]

For all the past kicks at the can, was it our top six that couldn’t score, or was it more about ONLY the top six could?

I'd say the collective had trouble scoring in the deciding games. Of course, it isn't unreasonable to suggest that the top players will bear the brunt of the criticism when the team comes up short. Aside from that, a successful team should also be able to expect some meaningful contributions from a lesser light or two.

No, LTIR doesn’t add cap space

The benefit of adding him is no cap in the playoff. So he can be activated off LTIR once the playoff starts.

All they need is NJ to get a forward and the NY trifecta will be done.

 

[Peace Frog]

Both, mainly our top two who couldn’t maintain their regular season pace. Most of all, none of our players could do anything in elimination games except for about 8 mins when they played 6v 5 against BJs and moments here and there in Game 6 and 7 against TB.

It seems to me that our PP completely failed us, along with our goalies letting in some very untimely weak goals, no?

Oh, okay. Thanks for the clarification.

He's hiding by speaking publicly?

nba trade deadline when he knows eyes are on the Raps

 

[LeafSteel]

That was all you mentioned, although of course we would have to give up a lot more, and fitting them in the cap may be problematic.

But what's wrong with having a little fun? Or did you think I was serious about the virgins?

I’m all for fun as the boards can get overly pretentious.

Apologies for the tone. I don’t know you well enough to know you were kidding without the at the end of your post.

Otherwise I guess I’m just preconditioned on here that rather than discuss and disagree as fans, that the intent is to put down and make fun of a differing view.

Cheers and COMMON TRADES!!!!!

 

[BayStBullies]

They extended Timmins, so there is that... plus possibly Muzzin... hopefully someone asks about Amirov as well.

Well yeah, but that broke after my comment.

 

[stickty111]

Wouldn't have minded Tarasenko. Opens up the market now for us

 

[Peace Frog]

Hey Podium, aren’t we able to use Muzzin’s cap space at the deadline? So why couldn’t we do the same with Nyquist?

 

[LeafSteel]

Dominoesssss

Awwwww damn.

NYR aren’t playing man. They are going to be legitimate threats in the East.

NJD is also going to be dangerous if they snag Meier, as they are currently the favourites to do so…..

 

[ACC1224]

They always make things happen.

As long as TB and BOS are shut out on the big name players, I’m happy.

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

I think I honestly would prefer making a smaller move like Bertuzzi or O'Rielly as opposed to a bigger fish like Kane or Meier. Allows us to keep Knies and I think we would be better for it with more depth.

Something like:

Bunting Matthews Nylander
Bertuzzi / O'Rielly Tavares Marner
Knies Holmberg Jarnkrok
Barbashev Kampf ZAR

Gives you a little more beef up front.

 

[The Podium]

Hey Podium, aren’t we able to use Muzzin’s cap space at the deadline? So why couldn’t we do the same with Nyquist?

LTIR allows you to exceed the cap ceiling by the AAV of the player you place on LTIR, but the total number includes the player on LTIR.

Example
The Leafs are at the cap 82 mill at the beginning of the season, Muzzins is placed on LTIR and can now spend to 87.5 mill (5.5 mill in added space)

The Leafs at 87.5 in LTIR acquire Nyquist’s 5.5 mill and place him on LTIR, they can now spend to 93 mill but have 87.5 mill committed so they don’t gain cap space and still only have 5.5 mill to spend.

*Numbers aren’t exact to keep the math a bit easier

 

[Apex Predator]

Wonder what the return is

 

[ACC1224]

As long as TB and BOS are shut out on the big name players, I’m happy.

You know that won't be the case.

 

[Fogelhund]

Dubas is speaking to the media at 2pm. I doubt it is a move, but maybe he answers questions.

Anyone know where I can watch this?

NYI with Horvat
NYR with Tarasenko
One of CAR/NJ likely getting Meier

The Metro is loading up. You know Boston will make another big move as well

Can't wait to roll into the playoffs with Kerfoot as our top 6 LWer

 

[Avilaj07]

Sounds like it's Blais, Kravtsov and a 1st for Tarasenko retained. New York made out like bandits on this trade, both Blais and Kravtsov are nothing players and it's going to be a very late first.
