Would love Brandon Tanev in the bottom 6

That's a lot of future capital regardless and the quality was far different. ROR + Acciari and McCabe + Lafferty in the years prior to Treliving. You pay for what you get. You might as well acquire good talent instead of half assing it. There's only really been Foligno as the one major dud throughout the last 10 or whatever how many years you wanna look back.

Treliving will do the same thing in his tenure either way, I will guarantee you that much.

That's a lot less for the same results.

ROR mentioned he hates the spotlight of Toronto. It's the first thing he said when he landed in Nashville. Maybe he also hated Keefe and the coaches but the team and environment didn't change. If he changed his mind on the situation, I guess? Doesn't seem likely to me. And giving up even more assets for a player that decided he wanted to jump ship to a place that has little pressure doesn't bold well for me.

i have zero interest in re-aquiring this player. he was chosen last time for a specific purpose which he did not provide, then proceeded to badmouth the team on the way out. next.

Player fits, has term on his contract, caphit is 4.5m which isn't outrageous. Seems like everything Toronto is looking for. Just speculation, but feels like ROR didn't like the fit with Keefe at the helm, might have different opinion on Toronto now with Chief behind the bench.

There's been a lot of smoke/talk about a reunion with ROR.

I think keefe played a major role in him deciding not to come back. Would not be surprised if ROR and Schenn are reacquired. Both were great fits

It's shocking how ROR is at the top of the list. It makes no sense to me. The player himself fits, nothing else about the situation does.

Just watch whats leafs need and whats player available bring and ROR is 110% the best fit. He bring everything leafs need, the players and berube know him pretty well...

and be sure if ror is trade to leafs, Trotz would ask him if hes okay with it.

Please no. Watching JT skate is painful enough.

You would think the discussions ends right with what you said.

 

[trellaine201]

I am sure this was brought up but I can’t find anything. Would the Leafs be interested in Toews? Would he want a lot of money?

 

[barilko05]

There's believed to be interest in Toews from a number of teams, Leafs included. He may WANT a lot of money, but realistically, he's not going to get more than a league minimum contract for the rest of the season. Basically a PTO. Anyone who pays him more than that is nutsy cuckoo and good luck.

 

[Fogelhund]

Winnipeg is after Toews. He was born there, grew up there, and they have a need for a 3C. I would be shocked if he went anywhere else.
