I repeat, Hildebeast is the keeper!I like both but I think Hildeby is the keeper (no pun intended) between the two. His upside is higher imo.

Unless he is moved for space and a pick or two.The draft was the perfect time for a trade
The Lily contract is probably the most short-sighted move we've seen by this current front office yet. 100% avoidable and a missed opportunity to spend that money better in free agency
Have to agree on this one..
You don't trade a somewhat-stalled mid-20s project in August or at the beginning of the season. It's far too difficult to find a "hockey trade" because teams can't build their offseasons around that trade.
The time to move Liljegren is at the draft, so that the Leafs can go in knowing what they need to spend on the blueline, and another team can go into offseason knowing they have Lily.
That being said, my personal suspicion as to what happened -- the Leafs had a deal lined up for Liljegren, and figured to make it more palatable they'd eat a chunk of bonus money. Their intent was to sign both Chris Tanev AND Matt Roy.
Roy went to Washington, which left the Leafs with Liljegren + $3.5m of cap space that they figured to spend on OEL, and then with Hakanpaa's injury status, they figured "what's the point in moving him now??".
Fantilli+Provorov would be sweet. I’d swap Robertson for Minten, gives them a C back. I think Robertson is a good fit under Berube and found some chemistry. They can take Jarnkrok and Kampf too. Why? I was surprised to see Fantilli on PP2 in their opener. Doubt they move him but would be nice.Might be interesting to see what a Lilly/Woll/Robbie package get us?
7 million(ish) in salary.

I hope that they're just showcasing Timmins, who would be dealt for something like a 3rd in the near future.
That would give us the cap space to activate Dewar - there is absolutely no need for a third line centre at the moment, as Holmberg has taken off and ran with it.
Forward depth is very good at the moment, just deal Jarnkrok for whatever, he will not be needed this season - there are better call-ups available if needed, and for a third of the cap cost.

I think acquiring a proper 2C is crucial.I really don’t think moving any of those players now makes any sense at all with the possible exception being Liljegren if they have determined he’s not in their plans.

While that is a possibility, I'm not sure it's so "direct".Unless he is moved for space and a pick or two.
Interesting. Maybe he was going to be reunited in Washington with Sandin, until the Caps won the Roy derby.
Tyson Jost on waivers. Could he be the 3rd line center? Or even 4th and trade Kampf.
Of course, it could be any team, or many teams anyway.While that is a possibility, I'm not sure it's so "direct".
The deal for Liljegren could have been to San Jose, or any of the teams in the league.. with the Leafs probably wanting to wait to make sure they could get Roy before leaving the right side of their D very weak.
JT is a solid 2C, he would be an elite 3C.We have a proper 2C. We need a 3

I maintain the need is at 2C.
I’m by no means hating on your take, I just see it differently.I mean long term a 2C would be a better add, I’m just not of the mindset that trading Woll or Robertson is smart currently.
Is this a joke?Fantilli+Provorov would be sweet. I’d swap Robertson for Minten, gives them a C back. I think Robertson is a good fit under Berube and found some chemistry.
