What do you think McMann's new contract will be?

I'm thinking 1 year $1.5 - $2.5m for one year. Bets on himself for a long term contract. Dunno if he'll sign here tho.

Even with a strong finish to the season, he should still be in tough to get the minimum of that range. I definitely wouldn't be going beyond that amount given his rather sparse track record.

How about Tanev and Schenn?

Rielly - Tanev
Brodie - Liljegren
Benoit - McCabe
Schenn

Luke is your #7 guy, but can easily slot into your third pair if Benoit struggles and needs to sit, with McCabe moving back to the left side, or Brodie struggles and McCabe needs to be slotted into the 2nd pair on the left side

You want to pay a guy who in your roster is the #7 guy $2.75 mil for three years?

Tanev should be around what Giordano got in terms of acquisition price. Problem is that the Leafs don't have the same draft capital right now.

The problem with extending Tanev is that I believe his next contract will be considered 35+ since his birthday is in December of this year (I could be wrong here though). Treliving has a long list of terrible long-term contracts to his resume. I do think if Treliving acquires Tanev it'll be with an extension.

I believe the determination is the same as UFA- age as of June 15th or 30th prior to the commencement of the 1st season.

I think many people are really underrating Liljegren. Maybe its partly because he isn't super physical and laying big hits all the time and he isn't putting up a ton of points either, but if you put that aside he's been playing really good defense in most games these days and I trust him on the ice in important situations. Also his offense has slowly improved as Keefe has been giving him more PP time and he's been getting more involved in taking the puck up the ice and making plays with it.

I always said that Liljegren just needed a chance to prove himself and right now he's looking pretty good and you can probably re-sign him at a good price so I don't know why some people keep throwing him in trade proposals when we should be keeping him probably above most every other Dman we have.

Agreed. He's competent with the puck and making plays offensively, defends well, works hard and has been fairly versatile with his role, whether it's PP or PK or just 5 on 5. He's not small or lightweight either... pretty average all around.

I always think people around here expect a lot of perfection from defenseman. Yeah sometimes he'll turn over the puck, yeah sometimes he will look bad defensively. If they aren't playing perfectly, they have to be shipped or waived. Nothing in between. Only still 24 years old, about to turn 25 in a couple months. I don't understand the thought process of trading him either, especially for a very marginal upgrade at best.

He should be a long-term RHD option for the Leafs. He won't cost a ton either as he enters his prime.

According to Friedman we've made an offer on Hanifin but won't move forward with it unless there is an extension in place.

Sorry, not a fan.

Fix RHD in a meaningful way. We don’t need 1A and 1B LHD and we don’t have money for $15m in the cap to them.

Treliving needs to look beyond his Calgary retreads.

We made fun of Dubas and his Soo OCD. I’m not interested in Treliving only looking at his former Calgary players.

He needs to be more resourceful than that, and broader in his searches.

why not? Hanifin has played really well in a matchup roll and would fill a long term roll on this team and Rielly has shown time over time the ability to play strong with a less talented d partners.

Hanifin Brodie
Rielly Liljegren
McCabe Benoit
Giordano

would be really solid for the playoffs
 
We need to get a c that can you lay against the other teams top line freeing up Matthews et al.

Thats why guys like Jordan Staal are invaluable in the playoffs.

Off topic, and I get it's a pipe dream but I'd but if we got Chandler Stephenson.

McMann - Tavares - Robertson
Jarnkrok - Kampf - Holmberg

Pretty solid bottom six.
Click to expand...

Knies Matthews Marner
Bertuzzi Domi Nylander
McMann Tavares Jarnkrok
Trenin Kampf Bailey

4th line needs some jam, Trenin from Nashville and Bailey from San Jose

Holmberg 13th forward, Robertson traded for D help

Yeah. Put a two-year one-way max buriable (1.15) in front of him and he really has to consider it. That's still life changing money.

He'd have big decision in front of him. Maybe he keeps this up through the rest of the season and a deep run and is looking at millions as a UFA. Maybe Jarncrok comes back, we add a forward at the deadline and he's the odd man out with the last two weeks being the high water mark of his career.

Reaves would be the odd man out before him.
 
Dreger this morning says a name he keeps circling back to for the leafs is Lyubushkin … if that’s the case, I hope he’s packaged with Henrique.

Lybushkin makes zero sense now to be honest, he can't play with Rielly and that's what we need.

Rielly-X
Brodie-Liljegren
Benoit-McCabe
Laggesson

Solve for X

Tanev if he had durability wouldn't be bad but to me Roy is the answer, trade for him and extend him.

Alternatively, Weegar is acceptable.

Going from players like Tanev, Hanifin, Roy, Walker, etc... to Lyubushkin is a big jump in quality.

The only way it sort of makes sense is if he's acquired at 50% for a very minimal price like say Lajoie/depth prospect and a 5th round pick in 2026. At 1.375M, Lyubushkin is more than fine. We all know injuries can pile up fast and I'd rather have him than Lajoie as depth going into the playoffs.
