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

Man we need to trade these f***ing passengers.

At least Kampf kills pens. Wtf does Domi do?

I feel bad for Robertson because he genuinely tries. But he's just weak AF and he's gotta go. Holmberg should be 4c at most otherwise he doesn't do shit out there.

We have so many f***ing passengers and Matthews this year decided to captain them.

Is it possible for a big change up of the bottom 6?

Realistically, Domi, Robertson, Reaves and Kampf aren’t really providing anything of value
 
Winning makes the most money, that is the truth.
For sure, it'll give you a huge boost and that's the ultimate goal, but winning every single year is not sustainable or realistic, so the more they can milk out in between, they're happy

I'm not saying that's why we have Domi, but a Domi jersey is going to sell more than a Joe Smith or Josef Smithsky jersey
 
Can we please hold on to Grebenkin.

He and our goalie prospects and literally the only assets outside of the NHL I care about.
Haven’t been impressed with Minten and I’m doubting Cowan is NHL material. I really wish he would have shined for us in one of the WJC tournaments.

Cowan played as well as anyone else on Canada this past WJC. The team just wasn’t that good unfortunately

I’ve never seen one Domi jersey.
If all the cared about was selling jerseys, wouldn’t constant turnover of players be the best way to maximize that?

They need some hard working players who bring it every shift
 
Domi is the same player as last year and last few years...

Hes always been a pretty inconsistent player in level of intensity. When hes on, hes able to make thing haplen but when hes off, hes trash...Nothing change

Schenn will cost alot of our prospect capital and he is 33 yrs old . Not a wide decision.

Cozens buffalo is looking for a similar player back. We can't afford to give away good roster layers right now.

Nelson is not worth a first or a top prospect Cowen or Minten

We lost an opportunity with Flyers for Frost which we probably would have had to take Farabee.

Farabee could have been flipped for a pick
Waive Reeves
Trade Robertson

What do you think he will cost?

For me, they can pick one of Cowan, Minten, Danford, or our 2026 1st.

They can also take a second tier prospect. They must also take David Kampf in exchange some minor sweetener.

The package would look something like this:
2026 1st Rounder
Topi Neimela
David Kampf
Nick Robertson
 
Forwards
Minimum 30 games played
Players most teams would want to improve.
Rough work ...

You'd rather keep Grebs over Minten??

Minten is on the top of my no trade list. He's not going to be an all-star or anything but he's as sure as it gets as an NHL'er. A guaranteed top 3C is a keeper.

I just like his game and would like to see him develop for at least another year.
Big power forward with some grit to his game.
I’d like to hold on to Minten as well but you got to give to get.
Now don’t go thinking I’d include him in a deal to get someone of Laughtons ilk. It would need to be for a bigger impact player or a young player with term.

We need to acquire a strong 2LW and 2C in a package deal

Cowan + Minten + 1st on the table

For

Good 2C and Great 2LW

Who are targets?

Get the 2LW and 2C and run

Knies - Matthews - Domi - 19 mins a game

McMann - 2C from trade - Marner 18.5 mins a game

2LW from trade - Tavares - Nylander 18 mins a game
 
I wonder if there would be interest in Andreas Englund. He is on waivers right now. A potential upgrade on Timmins with the ability to play the enforcer role.

If he clears given his high salary at 1M, I would try to send a couple of the Leafs non-prospects with contracts like Voit, Kressler or Peksa in exchange for him. The Marlies could use a heavyweight enforcer and it is additional expiring depth for the Leafs and Marlies playoff runs.
