GDT: Trades & Free Agency

[ErnieLeafs]

Pure speculation on your part right here……

What part? That he hasn’t been good? No, that’s the truth. That he hasn’t been a staple in their lineup? That part’s also true.

Given that both of those truths exist in COLUMBUS, the speculative part (Peeke not being transformative for a much better hockey team) is the heavy odds-on take.0

 

[Smif]

This team is a joke, I knew he’d get claimed….

He wasn't going to play again this season lol...

 

[Leaffan1991]

Come on Brad bring Parayko

 

[The Podium]

People are upset about not getting the 7th D on one or the worst teams in the league who is making 2.75 mill?

Hes young with potential but it’s a gamble/project at best

I would’ve claimed Bjornfot over trade for Peeke

 

[Sypher04]

I'm still going to be very surprised if our 1st isn't moved

 

[ErnieLeafs]

I take big long breaks from this board, and I always forget that this place has to be on the approved web content list of mental asylums. Wild, wild takes around here

 

[Smif]

It's absolutely not true that Edmundson and Boosh don't address some of our most important needs. Also Peeke is a project at best.

And ZERO playoff experience.

 

[I am Canadian]

I'm still going to be very surprised if our 1st isn't moved

I won't be. It hasn't even slightly worked on in the past several deadlines.

 

[Warden of the North]

Right, because Toronto’s depth on D is abyss like deep…….

Rielly
Brodie
McCabe
Luybushkin
Edmundson
Benoit
Liljegren

Giordano
Timmins

How many dmen do we need? He's at best out #8, if not #10. You cant have dozens of dmen on the roster

 

[Stephen]

Florida Panthers saw the value we did,

Tobias Björnfot Claimed Off Waivers By Panthers​

The Panthers have claimed defenseman Tobias Björnfot off waivers from the Golden Knights, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

So basically he’s the Forsling. Confirmed.

I might have to go get a job with Bill Zito.

 

[GoonieFace]

I'm still going to be very surprised if our 1st isn't moved

There’s no one good enough to trade a 1st pick for

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

I feel like people will be disappointed with anything short of hiring Professor Frink to clone Cale Makar

 

[trellaine201]

Players ate puking, management is puking, fans are puking…….

You meant choking lol

 

[pdson]

People are upset about not getting the 7th D on one or the worst teams in the league who is making >2 mill?

Hes young with potential but it’s a gamble/project at best

People just love to rag on the Leafs for every move or non move . I am begging to question if they are even Leaf fans

 

[Stephen]

Guess Treliving has something else in mind and didn't value Peeke that highly.

I’m not against standing pat but I’ll never say no to free young defensemen drafted with our own first rounder.

 

[GoonieFace]

People just love to rag on the Leafs for every move or non move . I am begging to question if they are even Leaf fans

They also love to pretend they know if these players are even good. Who has seen Peeke play more than the 2 games against the Leafs.

Rielly
Brodie

Luybushkin
Edmundson
Benoit
Liljegren

Giordano
Timmins

How many dmen do we need? He's at best out #8, if not #10. You cant have dozens of guys under contract.

Gio, hurt, Timmons, mono, Lilly playing with ankle issues, Brodie sucks. Yup no issues with the D’s depth…..

You meant choking lol

Choking on puke maybe……

 

[Warden of the North]

Gio, hurt, Timmons, mono, Lilly playing with ankle issues, Brodie sucks. Yup no issues with the D’s depth…..

Lagesson isn't better then any of them.

I'm honestly at a loss as to why you think he's anything more then depth.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

This season is a write off. I'm content with not wasting any more assets ever again to help this core until they start showing up for the big games. Hat tricks against the Ducks mean f*** all.

Of course that will never happen. The minute things tighten up, they start playing their garbage perimeter game that goes nowhere. These past two games against Boston were real eye opener for anyone (including myself) that thought they may have changed a bit with that 7 game win streak.

 

[Smif]

Gio, hurt, Timmons, mono, Lilly playing with ankle issues, Brodie sucks. Yup no issues with the D’s depth…..


Choking on puke maybe……

He barely played BEFORE we acquired Boosh and Edmundson. He wasn't going to see ice again this season.

 

[Malachi Crunch]

What if we snagged Kessel? What is taking the Canucks so long?

 

[Mess]

I’m not against standing pat but I’ll never say no to free young defensemen drafted with our own first rounder.

Claiming Tobias Bjornfot would have been almost be like trading the now LTIR Jake Muzzin for our own former 1st rounder back in that trade.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

What if we snagged Kessel?

Do it!

 

[Sypher04]

There’s no one good enough to trade a 1st pick for

not sure I believe that.

The Maple Leafs are proud to select from the WHL Brandon Wheat Kings…. Charlie Elick!
