Leafs and Flames suggested as a trade partner as per Elliotte Friedman

TRADE PROPOSAL

Leafs receive: Noah Hanifin and Chris Tanev

Flames recieve: Nick Robertson, 2024 first round pick and Fraser Minten.

It wouldn't make sense for Calgary to trade them in a single deal. They would recoup more assets trading them separately.

Robertson , Minten and a first is a serious haul. Also they are hitting free agency it's not like they are controlled. Might get close to nothing for Tanev given his injury history.

If this were actually on the table, it would have been done already as the Leafs would do this deal all day every day,

the budget version is unlikely to bring a cup this year. the D will still be suspect and this trade will just make it harder to make moves that will move the needle in the right direction down the road.... should just stand pat or sell. If a cup is won this season it will be a hand of God intervention where the big contracts step up and the goaltending stands on their head...

not really it clears out 3.5m in Timmins and Kampf for next year, flexible to keep the new guys if they work.

Believe it or not we’re a top 5 offence and a little defensive stability and character guys could go a long way, may not lead to a cup but need to be more competitive going into and through the playoffs.

 

[ErnieLeafs]

Laughton and/or Ristolainen would be the perfect blend of expensive and underwhelming. It's a pass for me on both.

People have been begging for Laughton for years on this board. He’s not having a banner season. I think smart hockey folks are willing to bet he can improve on his play.

 

[Leaffan1991]

Laughton would be a nice add, Risto... not so much but if cap hit is 50 percent it's not the worst

 

[TheDoldrums]

 

[Leaffan1991]

Both their caphits are under 5 million and Calgary can retain. Also Friedman knows what he's talking about more than these twitter experts. I think we add Bertuzzi to balance the salary and it could work.

Probably Brodie

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

I will completely write this franchise off if Risto-f***ing-lainen is acquired.

 

[Leaffan1991]

Laughton Risto and Tanev would be a decent enough change for this year. Out I'm assuming Brodie, Robertson.

Domi Matthews Marner
Bertuzzi Tavares Nylander
Knies Laughton Jarnkrok
Gregor Kampf Holmberg
Reeves

Rielly Tanev
McCabe Lilly
Benoit Risto
Gio

 

[Commander Clueless]

Honestly I don't want Risto even at 50% for 3 more years

 

[SprDaVE]

 

[TheDoldrums]

carry on lads

 

[Menzinger]

carry on lads

Hopefully that's the team being truthful lol.

 

[Buds17]

It wouldn't make sense for Calgary to trade them in a single deal. They would recoup more assets trading them separately.

This would fall along the lines of a 1st and two 2nds (and the 2nds already have some NHL experience). Not a bad return at all for Calgary IMO (which isn't to necessarily state that I'd like for Toronto to do this).

 

[BertCorbeau]

A Tanev extension won’t age well

TRADE PROPOSAL

If we're targeting Hanifin then I hope we're looking to move Brodie. Way too many left shot defenders already.

 

[Menzinger]

Brodie is probably easily included in most deals for a D man. The receiving team could still likely flip him for a late round pick

If Tre wants to bring in a couple players, I can see it happening that way

Brodie might be a fail-to-report situation, in which case they would have to pay to dump him.

That would make things tricky cause Tre can't fully remake the defense while he's still here.

If that happens I believe the Leafs or the other team could just terminate his contract

 

[TMLAM34]

There’s no way Tre actually has interest in Risto, even at 50% retention.

If the other team is not a playoff team, they would likely just deal him elsewhere or waive him.

 

[Namikaze Minato]

Dont forget, Brodie has a 10 team NTC

 

[Menzinger]

Mirtle says in the most recent Leafs report the Leafs are talking to teams about 'every defensemen'. So seems as if they're considering a wide range of options.

He also confirmed they are also looking for a centre

 

[Dreakmur]

Dont forget, Brodie has a 10 team NTC

And a base salary of 7.5 million this year.
