Trades and Free Agency - 2022-23 Season Edition

[andora]

Nashville wont move jeannot for a player like robertson.. even with a shiny draft pick..

He is a guy that doesnt move in my opinion.. watching him play and wanting him gets you to ask.. what incentive could i give nashville to move him

 

[TMLAM34]

I'd target Jeannot + Murphy.

Jeannot would be a solid target. You’re not going to get him AND Trenin though.

Jeannot is a guy that came out of nowhere to shoot 20% for more than a year.

I would be extremely wary of giving up valuable assets for that type of player. Like the guy, but that screams major regression.

100%, people see the hit total and think you’re going to need to give up an arm and a leg to acquire a third liner.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

Andrew Peeke or Connor Murphy are the only defensemen I would consider giving up assets for at the moment. Most of the depth guys suggested aren't any better than Benn or Mete.

If the standings stay the same the forward market could be pretty flooded with talent at the deadline.

 

[facelessjoe1990]

who would cost more Murphy or Zub? what would it cost for each?

You would think Nashville would be wary of moving on from such a player. Move like that could come back and haunt them.

You think shooting 20% is sustainable for him?

 

[TMLAM34]

To Toronto: Max Comtois
To Anaheim: Nick Robertson

Change of scenery for both these players.

Robertson doesn't need a change of scenery. He needs development.

 

[The Podium]

Which sucks because this Leafs team could use current Jeannot, but valued as current Jeannot, not valued as offensive Jeannot

 

[123offtheglass]

It's been mentioned but Connor Murphy has always seemed like a good long term solution to pair with Rielly.

Allows for Brodie to shelter Sandin or Gio.

I'd mostly look to him for help around the crease, pk, physicality depending on where Muzzin is. Ideally they'd acquire someone better or with cheaper AVV though.

 

[Menzinger]

Imo biggest acquisition debate is 3C vs 2nd pairing LHD. If it's the D, I don't think they need to swing for the fences for a star or an offensive driver. Just get another safe minute munching guy who the team can throw out there for a 1/3 of the game and know they likely won't give up a goal

Yep, I'm sure Rutherford would be licking his chops for another opportunity.

Considering the price he paid for Kapanen, I'd be fine with him wanting another go

 

[Amadeus]

Robertson doesn't need a change of scenery. He needs development.

I don't want to do the deal at all and I'm willing to be patient with him but you can't teach size.

Caufield isn't big either but there's a way he's being put into the best position to contribute. That's Keefe's responsibility.

On a rebuilding team with no other offensive options…. Also nearly a year older

 

[Legion34]

Does gavrikov play on the right as well?

I can't see Columbus parting with Peeke unless they clean house on their management. They just re-signed him to an extension, seems unlikely that Jarmo would do that... but you never know.

Murphy does really fit pretty much that Muzzin role. He's nowhere near as good offensively but I think defensively he's just a stable veteran and he can play a lot of minutes.

 

[Stephen]

David Savard, Vladislav Gavrikov, Connor Murphy, Luke Schenn, Artem Zub are guys on some of the less competitive NHL teams who might fit a defensive role. Maybe we could even get Lyubushkin back from Buffalo if we ask nicely.

I'd also be interested in Ryan McDonagh if Nashville continues to stumble along, but obviously he costs more than Muzzin which would require some creativity to fit in.

 

[notDatsyuk]

Engvall+ for Kapanen with retention down to even the price of the contracts? Maybe that's all Kapanen wants. He liked it here. He's friends with Nylander. Maybe make the third line something like

xxx Nylander Kapanen

I don't think Dubas wants Nylander centering a line. Too easy to find out that he's our #2C.

 

[Torontonian]

Toronto needs to replace Muzzin, that should be priority number one. They need someone that can make a good breakout pass to the forwards consistently and can play in his own end with solid defensive play. I don't think penny pinching by having someone like Schenn/Benn/Lybushkin/Savard etc is good enough, they need to set their sights higher then that, but I agree, a offensive driver on D is not what the Maple Leafs need.

I've said before, they can get away with penny pinching in the top 6 for example because they are playing with elite players, I don't think the same can be done on D playing against other teams top 6 and elite players.

 

[Jozay]

They need a top 4 dman unless Sandin steps up and they need a forward to help score when they inevitably struggle to score in the playoffs.

 

[ULF_55]

Before trading assets away, demote Robertson so he can play at least 3rd. line minutes, hopefully 2nd.+ minutes in games, and call-up one of the prospects who is actually producing game by game.

See what they have at forward before moving assets.

On defense, let's see what they have or move someone for a term top 4 defender.

Lottery protect their 1st. rounders!!!

 

[WTFMAN99]

I don't see how Robertson is sitting when he gets less TOI per game than Kerfoot etc but has similar production.

We have so many holes in this roster. Needed another top 4D this off-season and a 3C but he didn't get these pieces.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

What are some big, physical RD out there that Dubas could potentially target via trade?

Scored 2 goals one game, probably on adrenaline.

Has not looked impressive since.

Malgin is outplaying him, easily.
