Trades and UFA’s - Trade Deadline Edition

[TMLAM34]

They’ll probably swap Chychrun for him lol

Or pair Tanev with Chychrun. Would be a real solid pair.

 

[Namikaze Minato]

Their management has no idea what they're doing

Haha yeah stupid suckers. Not like our management right, guys?



... guys?

 

[GoodNewfieBoy]

They hired Dave Poulin. They are going backwards again

 

[BertCorbeau]

Trade for Tanev so they can hopefully re-sign him to a bloated deal?

I'm pretty sure that's what the Leafs are going to do.

 

[SprDaVE]

The Poulin special.

But if they can get Tanev and sign him, it sets them well going into next year. They can dump a bunch of other players and build towards next season... again. I can respect that kind of savvy maneuvering. They have a lot of prospects, young players and picks.

But why in the hell would Tanev want to go there and re-sign? He can't possibly want to go to another unstable franchise. I guess money talks.

Like the d pair but we’re giving up way too much holmberg and jarnkrok are two we should be holding on to

This is utter crap.

Too much? That’s a pile of crap sent to Columbus…

 

[arso40]

Would say that maybe it’s not the sexiest but I definitely wouldn’t call it that with our first round pk

Honestly, it feels like they are making this move as a means to block us from making a move. kind of like old-school GMing in the past to block other teams/rivals.

Most definitely everyone has a hard on for us but realistically we’re one of the teams standing in their way of the playoffs so it’s a tactical move

 

[Nineteen67]

He’s 34. He could shore a contender‘s D, and if plays well he may get a nice contract in July.
Boston or Edmonton come to mind, so maybe Ottawa is trying to broker the deal.

On the other hand, he has M-NTC so he may not want to be traded to another Canadian market.

Ottawa is the only thing standing in the way of Ottawa.

 

[GQS]

Can someone explain to me why some people here like Peeke so much? Looking on the Columbus board it doesn't seem like many Jackets fans think too highly of him and don't mind if he stays or goes. Is there some huge untapped potential that people see in him that makes him so coveted because right now he seems like just another Benoit only worse. Same age, about the same size, playing 3rd pairing minutes when he can get into games.

Not sure why we want this guy when we can just keep Benoit to do what Peeke does at a cheaper cost.

1. He big.
2. He shoot right.
3. People think the grass is always greener on the other side.

At 25 years of age, he’s not far from averaging 20+ minutes in multiple seasons for Columbus. He’s big, right handed and plays a shutdown game while still being able to make a solid first pass. He likes to hit and block shots, which is something we could use on the backend and on the PK. His contract isn’t the best but that’s probably what’s going to keep the cost very low. Worth the gamble IMO.

You can try him next to Rielly as Schenn looked really good there and it allowed Rielly to play his game. Or you can have Peeke on the third pair with a guy like Benoit. Those two would probably make any opposing player think twice before going into the corners as you’re 100% getting hit.

 

[notdoneyet]

Not going to keep going on this, you sound like a broken record.

You believe Peeke has no business playing with Rielly, based on your extensive knowledge of him, as well as how Columbus has used an viewed him

You can’t get over how some people here want to see what he can do here. After watching Schenn, Brodie, Holl, Hainsey, Ceci, Barrie….. we must NOT try to see if Peeke can do anything, and if his RHD defence can allow Rielly to play his game, like Schenn did.

That some people can think we should see is unbelievable and I must shake my head in wonderment indeed. Columbus has determined it, and so it must be!!

Peeke’s need not apply, let’s keep Brodie where he is, as he is unquestionably a better option until we find the tried 1RHD we’ve been searching for, since, well…… Yushkevich??v!

Joshing aside, who do you feel we can immediately put on Rielly’s RHD? Brodie is getting worse and worse and can’t stay there. Who do you put that is adequate and attainable right now?

Try Benoit there for a game
Not saying he is a top two defender but he has improved every time out. He is no different than hainsey schenn lubushkin and other tough stay at home dmen who have looked good with Reilly.

Only difference is he’s a lefty and primarily playing the left side, like Rielly.

 

[nuck]

Maybe the coach hates him? Keefe does his best not to play Robertson, maybe it’s the same thing?

This would be an explanation why its possible he could have a lot more game but its not a reason to acquire him. If you have one bullet to spend for a RD solution, does it make sense to spend it on the CBJ third pairing guy at 2.75 x 3? Odds are in favor of him being a 3rd pairing guy here too.

Now if the Jackets buy him out then next summer for $1M why not? Or are we talking about Kampf going the other way?

Andrew Peeke - Teammates - On Ice - Natural Stat Trick

 

[TMLAM34]

I know this is an area we can improve on but the Rangers are looking for a center. I wonder if they would have any interest in Domi? Not sure what the cost would be for Lafreniere, probably inflated due to his draft selection but he’s someone I’d have interest in.

To Toronto: Alexis Lafreniere
To Rangers: Max Domi + Timothy Liljegren

What I like the most about Lafreniere is his physicality. I honestly think he would slot in really nicely next to Matthews and provide the physical game but the ability to still produce offensively with his playmaking and shooting skills.

This would leave a big hole on an already weak right side on the blueline though.

I would then go to Columbus and trade for Peeke with the freed up cap space.

To Toronto: Andrew Peeke
To Columbus: Nicholas Abruzzese + VAN 5th Rounder

Essentially you’re moving Domi and Liljegren for Lafreniere and Peeke.

To be fair columbus is utter chaos.. they were last year and again this year. It isnt a very defencemen friendly forward group.. they play disjointed.. anyone below exceptional tier is going to look questionable on that team

I would feel comfortable saying that ducks fans were saying similar things about benoit..

These guys are role players true and true.. and can flourish with opportunity but playing with better players and better teams

 

[Sypher04]

This is utter crap.

The Leafs take that deal and run before Columbus comes to their senses.

They gave up a 1st and 2nd alone for Provorov just this past offseason and I think it’s fair to say if LA hadn’t also put in a bunch of assets the ask may have even been higher.

Scooping Lafreniere would be a smart move. We need LWs, and he'd be a good add. I like the way he plays.
