I wonder if the first in play you could get both Fabbro and Novak from the Preds? Both could fit in quite nicely going into next year.
I like Fabbro in terms of potential but he's pretty much bottom pairing quality right now so it would be a risk. I admittedly haven't seen much of him outside of looking at his stats though, which is low TOI but doing well in those minutes but maybe that's the "buy low" move needed. I know he's a great skater with decent overall skill. He seems very similar to Liljegren.
Novak would be a huge boost to the 3rd line and center depth. He'd be the main acquisition. He's dirt cheap this season as well, but his next contract he'll get a big raise. I have a feeling Boston will get him in some way.

To get ready for the playoffs we need defensemen that bring significant size, but functional size that can clear a net front, but also proficient at clearing the puck, must be right handed, and a sound transition game would provide big upside to our offensive group.
We're going to have to clear out whatever little we have left to get this with a reasonable level of certainty against the time crunch we have. That or we can try to get lucky in FA one year, but time is ticking.
Once Muzzy went down last year it was crazy to empty the cupboards and not address this.

Seems exactly like lily but who knows maybe they both turn into top 4 d but on lower cap hits

Now he’s the guy you get to be riellys partner don’t give ‘em lily though
Andersson would be a dream but Leafs just don’t have the pieces to get him.
It won’t be just Lilly and a 1st. More like Lilly, Minten and 1st.

Now thats a blueline. You don't really need to shelter any pair either.

That's a blueline that's using a 3rd pair as a 2nd pair.....
Got to be another way no way i give up Minten a 1st and lily only baccend piece I’m willing to part with is timmins and I don’t even want to give him up really rather trade niemela a bunch of futures and reeves or something
Switch em you get the point though I much rather that and then retool in the off season with a stay at home right shot

You trade Timmins over Niemela every time if you can.
I mean sure but his small sample size is good and he’s big and strong niemela is small

Fair enough, but Timmins doesn't really have a spot here, and Niemela is younger and more 2 way potential.

They probably prefer Niemela, but if we have a choice of who to give them, I'd hope we trade Timmins.

Switch them and we still have 2 3rd pairings. Obviously, adding one good defenseman helps, but we need a lot of help to make out blueline better than average.
Walker and Seeler both have been talked about what did we think of there game last night
Parayko is a bug no for me

This is the guy you move heaven and earth for
If he’s truly available, Tre needs to do his best to make him a Leaf. Every piece on the table

I don't think it's impossible. Presumably you would be looking at some combination of Knies/Cowan/Minten/1st round pick. The competition to get him would be pretty significant.
Won’t pay that for sure as much as I’d love to have him we can’t be stupid about it

Muzzin was a 1st + Durzi + Grundstrom.
He was a similar age, salary and had 1 yr left on his deal (Andersson has 2).
There's certainly a bit of a template there.
