They need 8 NHL defenseman to get them through 4 rounds. Lagesson and Timmins don't count.We need a bottom pairing D?
so they're not crazy, I doubt Torts want him anywhere near the dressing room, did he play for Torts in Columbus?Johansen immediately waived by Phili

Sure, but why would he do that?If he agrees can they mutually terminate that contract?
It’s like the Ritchie + 2nd for Lubyushkin deal with the Coyotes… except a worse contract (in AAV) and a slightly better d-man.
What’s sad about the Lyubushkin deal is we will have given up a 2nd, 3rd and 6th for him and he will have expired as a UFA twice before any of those picks have been used. Kinda bizarre if you think about it. Hope we re-sign him just to avoid this odd trivia.
Could/should we go beyond 1x1.1 range on him?
Sure, but why would he do that?
Carolina gets Guentzel (signed) and gives up a sweetener but the Leafs give up 3 pieces? Ya, no.What about a Toronto-Carolina-Pittsburgh three way?
Pesce to Toronto (re-sign)
Guentzel to Carolina (re-sign)
1st Tor. Prospect Tor. Prospect Tor. Sweetener Car.
Well, they likely don't have what it will take to get one.Why on earth is this team stocking up on depth defensemen?
Boosh is fine. We needed a partner for Rielly. But why would we consider moving literally any assets for another?
If he agrees can they mutually terminate that contract?
To give up $8 mil though? I think I'd ride on a bus for $8 mil for a year.He's made a ton of money and would rather play in the NHL than ride a bus in the A perhaps?
What a kick in the nuts, if they win with our castoffs.And the parade of Leafs cast-offs to Edmonton continues...
