Trades & Free Agency Thread: Off-season Edition

[Gabriel426]

Assuming if Marner is traded, it won't be until atleast his bonus is paid on July 1st but we'll see if Tre makes any moves to trim some fat around the edges (Kampf, Jarnkrok ect) or makes a move to acquire a defenceman.

They could always announce the trade with pending medical. But I do think it will be after the Canada’s day weekend and might even be after 4th of July before anything happens.

 

[TheMadHatTrick]

Yeah, I think they could get fair bit more than 4th out of Pittsburgh for obvious reasons, but past that, who knknows.

The Mangiapaine deal is the lowest we should go in any Robertson deal.

 

[Kiwi]

I’m not sure he makes our roster unless we shit the bed in the summer

He was surprisingly productive last year

About half a point per game playing low minutes on the 3rd line with minimal PP time

He also won't cost much to bring back

I think he's worth keeping at this stage

 

[Canucks LB]

Just a fyi, if you are wondering, Zadorov Can't play the right side.

 

[Rude Dog]

Depends on the number but I would take Zadorov all day long at around 5. Big, nasty and can skate. But I would look to add a puck mover with the 2nd signing.

Prefer Marino and Roy but Zadorov will quickly become a fan fav here or despised.

 

[Duffman955]

I still believe reobertson

The talent is there, and so is the attitude

 

[Rare Jewel]

For what we're likely to pay he better be able to play @ 2 C.

Me too and I think he will break out and score 25 goals in a season without PP time.

But he is an odd fit with the current team.

 

[All Mod Cons]

I dunno… just seems like we’re running it back. I’m expecting Tanev to come in, Bertuzzi snd Domi come back and we sign Brossoit

If they can't move Marner, there's not a hell of a lot they can actually do. We pay 4 forwards a f*** load of the cap. That's always been our issue and will continue to be our issue. Everything else doesn't address the issue.

 

[TMLAM34]

Zadorov - McCabe
Benoit - Liljegren

Wouldn’t mind that bottom 4.

 

[Canucks LB]

I will say this leafs fans, Zadorov while not a need as he is a LHD.
As a player tho? This guy would be perfect for Toronto.
Huge personality, good hockey player, Intimidating on the ice, can skate really well, was a beast in the playoffs, he makes players around him better from what I have seen.
Just keep him as a #4/5 guy, and he would fit perfectly.

As I said, I can only see him making the roster if we strike out with UFAs.

He’s behind Knies and McMann. Cowan essentially has to start on LW. Dewar and Holmberg are better bottom of the roster guys.

Add in any UFA, and there’s no spot for Robertson.

No worries, the 6×6 thing dampened my enthusiasm already

I'm still not sure what McMann is so I'm not sure he's better than Robertson and those other two are 4th liners with some positional flexibility

Cowan is coming but he's not here yet, Grebyonkin plays on the right I think and so does Domi

I think there's still a place for him

I'd like to keep him, too, but I think he'll request a trade if he doesn't have a clear spot by camp

We’re not going to pay 6 million a year for #4-#5 with our cap. This team might as well bring back Edmundson/Lilly snd Lybushkin for that money

 

[Kiwi]

I think there's a spot for him and honestly I'm through doing what these guys want

We trade you when we want to trade you, let's do what's in our best interests this time

Issue has been who is going to play with Rielly. We’ve only been asking this question for the past decade

 

[Menzinger]

From the sounds of things if you wantStamkos it's 6-7 years of term not 2-3....

 

[Kiwi]

**** right off with that

 

[Tony Romo]

From the sounds of things if you wantStamkos it's 6-7 years of term not 2-3....

I think it’s 6-7 because Tampa was giving him 3m a year

 

[Sypher04]

From the sounds of things if you wantStamkos it's 6-7 years of term not 2-3....

I can’t see him ever playing those last 2-3 years personally so I would consider it if the AAV is right. There is no question he could help this team for the next 3-4 years imo

 

[Menzinger]

True, but a lot of teams are going to be after him, he'll still set the terms and I don't expect it to be cheap

 

[Magic Man]

TB offered Stamkos 3 million a year for 7 years lol. f*** that.

They offered a deal until the age of 42
