Trades & Free Agency Thread: 2024-2025 - Trade Deadline Approaches

[Taylor Halls Teeth]

6.5 on a 95 104 and 114 cap is fine

That bigger cap is how they will afford the top end salaries they seem unable to say no to.. Overpay by $2M next summer for Ekblad not for another forward.

 

[trellaine201]

Yikes why does he make so much. St Louis better eat $2-3M

He out produced his closest linemate by 46 points. Tavares is producing better offensively this season than any other Bruin that season. I’m not sure your argument has legs here.

Lots of subjective drivel that’s been overdone in this forum. I assume since you value goals>>points>>defense you would have preferred Kyle Connor to Nylander and Marner over that same time frame?


I’ll speculate he re-signs. So 10 years of Pietrangelo vs 14 of Nylander. They re-signed all of their other top players so why would Pietrangelo be the exception?

Which still has nothing to do with the fact that he was on a top line with top linemates.

What does top linemates mean in this context? He played with players who couldn’t keep up with him offensively and he still put up 60g.

If you talked about overal impact, Marner had more impact than Nylander

If you talking about quality/price, Nylander bring a better quality/price. So depend how you want to see this.

And if Toronto would had trade nylander for pietrangelo, maybe they wouldn't had trade Kadri in a desesperate trade to fix D. They probably wouldn't sign brodie 5M .

That would affect every decision leafs made and a lot of thing would be diferent

I don't think the Kadri trade was exclusively, or even mainly, a desperate trade to fix D.

If we had to sign Pietrangelo it would almost surely have been for more than $6.9, so we'd be in even worse cap problems.

Too many variables - fun to speculate, but that's it.

Treliving would bust a nut for Brayden Schenn

 

[jaric1862]

The term "mammoth" as it relates to the return for Brayden Schenn, does not excite me.

 

[Dragao6]

Any word on how Jacob trouba has been playing since the trade?

Always wanted him but seems to have had a hard time this season

 

[Leaffan1991]

Minten plus Robertson for B Schenn at 3 million

Connor Murphy (50 percent retained)
For
First round pick plus Niemela
Kampf(cap purposes)

Luke Schenn (50 percent retained)

Knies Matthews Domi

Lorentz Holmberg Dewar

McCabe Tanev
OEL Murphy

I've had enough of bringing in old guys and hoping they produce as they age out of the league

If we're giving up assets it's time to think of now and the future, young guys on bad teams can improve in better situations, they can score more with better linemmates, they can improve as they hit there mid to late 20's

I know which one I'd rather roll the dice on
