Hextall passes unless Nylander has a 8 year contract paying him a reasonable salary. Sub Simmonds in for Konecny and take out the 3rd and I'd sign up for that.

Considering where we are in the calendar year, I find it hard to accept the fact that the Leafs would be able to swallow there pride, start seriously looking at trades and allow another team to talk to Nylander's camp to get a deal done all before December 1st. At this point, it seems like Nylander will sit out the entire season.

Can only sign Nylander for 7 years right now? Aren't 8 year deals for extensions of contracts that haven't expired, for players in the last year of multiyear deals?

Ghost would be a huuuuuuuge pickup for the Leafs. I don't know if that gets it done, but if the Flyers are comfortable trading him, he's got to be someone Toronto would be interested in.

I love Nylander but if that's the offer, keep him
