Trades & Free Agency Thread: Off-season Edition

[OVO16]

Friedman just released a blog with all of his predictions based off the intel he's hearing.

Zadorov looks like he's Boston bound. Great, we gotta deal with this monster for the next 5 years in the own division

Depends. If Boston is about to give him 5.5-6M for 5-6 years we should celebrate that.

 

[TMLAM34]

Lots of people saying Bertuzzi is easily replaceable internally, not sure if that’s actually the case though.

Bertuzzi - Matthews - Domi was a great line. It also gave two players who would protect Matthews which is the most important part IMO.

Ideally Stephenson is signed.

________ - Matthews - Domi
Knies - Stephenson - Nylander
McMann - Tavares - Marner

We’d need to find a winger to play with Matthews and Domi that can play with a little jam but also fits the price.

 

[sxvnert]

A top line of Guentzel-Point-Kucherov is terrifying.

Man who cares. Bruins just got their modern day version of CHara and chances are he's gonna decimate us when we inevitably meet in the 1st round again. Gonna be a total ass to play against

Friedman's predictions

We're getting Stolarz or Broissoit

We're going hard after OEL

Tanev at 6 years, $4.5M



Zadorov to Boston

You know that he's going to murder us in the first round.

Stephenson is going to nashville

Ok. We all know if the Leafs gave that deal the reaction would not be that at all.

Lindholm Carlo
Zadorov McAvoy

Ugh

 

[OVO16]

Lindholm Carlo
Zadorov McAvoy

Ugh

Good lord

 

[TMLAM34]

Zadorov going to Boston would be brutal for us. He’ll fit into their culture and system perfectly making him an easy top four defenceman and he’ll have his best games of his career against us.

 

[OddyOh]

We also desperately need a 3rd line C. That honestly might just be as important as another D

Tavares ain't good enough for 3C you?

Yep. Classic Anti-Leafs Hockey God's magic.

 

[OVO16]

I wanted Trenin but sounds like he's going to Minnesota according to Friedman.

Maybe target Brandan Duhaime and pair him up for Dewar. Both familar with each other

 

[LeafsFan89]

I am probably in the minority, but if letting Lilly walk meant we got Big Z, then I would have happily did that.

 

[TMLAM34]

Lindholm Carlo
Zadorov McAvoy

Ugh

Rielly - Tanev
McCabe - Liljegren

Let’s goooooo!!!!!

Well many geniuses in here barked at Tre for wanting him...they will cry when the playoffs starts

 

[TheShape]

We'll see where else Tre spends the cap space, but we couldn't get near that Bertuzzi deal? I don't know, I had Domi and Bertuzzi pencilled in for around 9m in cap combined. Those two were money with Matthews.

Again, we'll see what else we do, may have other plans for the LW.

I was definitely not one of those people. Would've been happy getting Zadorov. Brendan Dillon who was my back up option....looks like he;s going to NEw Jersey.

Vincent Deharnais i can see Tre liking

 

[Americanadian]

Friedman has Roy to Washington. They have Carlson, Roy, Jensen, TVR, Bear as RHD above 2M AAV. Something has to give there.

Whoa there, that’s a big leap

 

[Malachi Crunch]

Okay, I'm on board with picking up some of the non-qualified guys. Zadina, Nylander....let's do it!

 

[Jmo89]

Great, Zadorov in Boston.

 

[Jojalu]

Am I correct in the Leafs are allowed to go 10% over the cap until a certain date?

Sign everybody and figure it out later

 

[TMLegend]

Am I the only one who doesn't really see a fit for OEL here? I don't mind the player but is the plan to play him in the top 4 if he signs here? I know he had a good year last year in a bottom pair role but I have reservations if he's a viable top 4 option these days.
