How much do the Leafs have to add to turn Marner into Forsberg + Saros?

How much do the Leafs have to add to turn Marner into Forsberg + Saros?

I doubt Nashville would have any interest in Marner because of his salary. That is partly why they will trade Saros.

Marner = NMC

I figured Saros didn't fit their window for contention.

Which players and prospective new teams would make for perfect couples?

Would be a huge deal, I've been a fan of Mangiapane for a while and would love him here along with Hanifin.

If that is the best that Calgary can do....yikes.

 

[Dreakmur]

Would absolutely love to acquire Saros, depending on the cost of course. It would really solidify our goaltending for years to come.

Nashville also has some depth players that could be useful.

If Dante Fabbro is cheap, he’d be a decent depth RD.

Yakov Trenin is the kind of aggressive winger we want in the bottom 6.

Colton Sissons would be a pretty solid 3C for us.

I assume this is not including a Hanifin extension? If so… YIKES

That seems kinda fair and it only works if Hanifin is re-signed, which he'd be at that point I guess. I'd rather Weegar or Andersson over Hanifin in this deal personally but they don't appear to be available. Mangiapane is very underrated.

But this is also over the cap by about ~3M -- so a cap dump will need to happen.

In all seriousness Brodie's contract.

Samsonov and a 7th lol

If we could extend Hanifin, I would do it instantly. Mangipane is very good as well.

So, Frank wants us to blow our load and strip our assets to bring in another LHD while simultaneously trading our only RHD prospect in the process?

Taken on its own, that’s a tough pill to swallow. He’s leaving us with Liljegren as our only everyday day true RHD, Timmins who Keefe won’t play, and a UFA left handed Brodie who already has shown decline.

What is the rest of Franks plan? Resign Brodie to continue to get worse? Target a UFA RHD after paying $15m to 1ALHD and 1BLHD between Rielly and Hanifin?

Taken as it is with no additional details, it’s very shortsighted.

Knowing Frank , pure click bait crap.

 

[darrylsittler27]

Marner = NMC

He may very well have a NMC but if or when we have a major management change in April/May they will want to dump someone and the pressure may go on Marner if he sucks in the playoffs. I think once we shift away from Shanahan the focus will go on actually winning a cup instead of pretending.

 

[Menzinger]

That Ottawa would have interest in a pending UFA.

They're a desperate team grasping at straws. Staios has probably been ordered to show tangible improvements and so will probably try anything at this point

 

[Kurtz]

Saros would cost a lot and goalies are voodoo.

But he provides top 5 calibre goaltending which can be a playoff series stealer.

And he’ll be 29 in April, signed for 2 more seasons. Likely gets $8.5-9 mill on his next deal.

There’s some temptation there

What would you say makes a goalie with a long history of success like Saros, "voodoo"?

It wasn't really anything other than an opinion and for fun from what I gather.

I think at the end of the day, the Leafs could probably increase the quality on defense regardless of handedness, hope it provides enough to go far in the playoffs, and re-assess in the off-season. By that I mean, Brodie is likely gone, as well as Giordano. McCabe moves into a RD Brodie role probably, Leafs target a RHD and voila. It could look something like:

Hanifin - McCabe
Rielly - UFA RHD
Benoit - Liljegren

 

[Gabriel426]

Keefe’s system, lol

 

[Kurtz]

Keefe’s system, lol

Ok, but let's get real here for a minute. Look at our goaltenders for the last decade plus. Samsonov was nearly out of the league before we signed him. Wall can't stay healthy for 2 minutes. Campbell isn't even in the league anymore. Freddy was an average goalie and before him we've had mediocrity every year.

Do you think it's a coincidence that the last time we went on a serious run we had a top-5 goalie in net in Eddie?

I would not trust McCabe on a shut-down pairing. He's good with Benoit as a 3rd pair, but he really struggles when asked to do more.

I was kidding.

Saros will be amazing addition. And would work great as he still got two years and will mentor Woll.

Also, beside the Columbus series, I don’t think our boys ever had a goalie that is better than the opposing team.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Nothing against Soros specifically but we have seen good goalies change teams before and underperform

Maybe, I doubt it.

Keefe’s system, lol

I believe up until this past year the Leafs have had strong defensive results despite some average goaltending

Frank's big volume trade package for Hanifin looks a little like what Boston did with Hampus Lindholm a couple of years ago, but I don't know if Robertson and Niemela in the same deal is overkill. The whole Mangiapane part isn't required either.
