Dubas was apparently requested by the media to speak after the trades yesterday, but he declined.

He would be a better pick up than Bertuzzi, especially with the Leafs having ROR, but I don't see Detroit moving him.What about Perron? Still has one more year under contract. You can pair him with O'Reilly
Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Jarnkrok - Tavares - Nylander
Perron - O'Reilly - ??
Zar - Acciari - Lafferty
Fixed it for you.I'd like to keep Kerfy if possible. But to do it we would have to get Toffoli at the full 50 %, and cut ZAR and Gustafson. And then to bring in Knies we would need toputlose Timmins through waivers.
Maybe he is still sleepingThis Is bullshit... Dubas hasn't done anything ... today
We got a game today. Might wait until our off day tomorrow to finish up.This Is bullshit... Dubas hasn't done anything ... today
Think he’s waiting for other teams to make moves. Maybe Canucks to make a trade so we can dump KerfyThis Is bullshit... Dubas hasn't done anything ... today
The thing is we could really use Kerfoot in a bottom 6 role in the playoffs and Timmins won't be anywhere near the playoff roster. I would like to keep Timmins but I'm not going to lose sleep over my 9th guy on the depth chart getting claimed through waivers.Fixed it for you.
Consider losing Timmins part of the cost of what you are proposing as there is no way he gets through Waivers if exposed.
We’ve already lost enough to keep Kerfoot, I have no interest in losing a player like Timmins for him. Enough is enough, really.
He would be a better pick up than Bertuzzi, especially with the Leafs having ROR, but I don't see Detroit moving him.
I would do:
Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Jarnkrok-Tavares-Nylander
Perron-ROR-Lafferty
Kerfoot-Kampf-Acciari
ZAR
You'd have to move out Murray to make it work though. I'd look at a swap of Gustafsson for Raanta to replace Murray if they did move him.
We got many forwards who can help cover for him if he is or isn't. Put him with Marner and Matthews and he compliments them offensively and if he's bad defensively they both can help him out there.Isn't Bertuzzi terrible defensively? I'm not sure how I feel about him as a target.

Was just kidding but yeah I'm guessing Friday he'll do a trade or two still.We got a game today. Might wait until our off day tomorrow to finish up.
Nvm, we play a back to back. Maybe he's saving one trade for trade deadline day so the people on TSN and Sportsnet covering Trade Deadline day have something to talk about for a while.
Vegas might be the wildest team I've ever seen for this stuff.
Was kidding but yeah probably more to come still.Think he’s waiting for other teams to make moves. Maybe Canucks to make a trade so we can dump Kerfy
Found added context for my prior post.
1. Raanta is significantly cheaper and allows you to acquire another scoring forward without giving up Kerfoot/HollYes because replaci one very talented but injury prone goalie, with another talented but injury prone goalie is always a good plan.

I value what Timmins can become more than what Kerfoot already is: a forward who doesn’t fit our lineup, whereas Timmins has the potential to become a top 4 RHD and is part of our RHD pipeline, behind Liljegren and ahead of Niemala.The thing is we could really use Kerfoot in a bottom 6 role in the playoffs and Timmins won't be anywhere near the playoff roster. I would like to keep Timmins but I'm not going to lose sleep over my 9th guy on the depth chart getting claimed through waivers.
Also by that time, maybe someone gets injured and we will have someone on LTIR again so we will have cap space again.
Apologies in advance, but that is the dumbest thing I have read in awhile.The thing is we could really use Kerfoot in a bottom 6 role in the playoffs and Timmins won't be anywhere near the playoff roster.

Yes but I doubt Knies gives you the production that Crouse does over the next 2-3 years.Though conversely Knies will have a sub 1 mil caphit for the next two seasons and the. Just starts his rfa contract. that carries extra value to the Leafs as they potentially have extended Matthews, Nylander and Marner contracts during that time frame. Crouse at 3 mil also likely means ROR is more difficult to extend too
