I’d say Manson is their best D, he’s a 40 point shut down beast. Last year he was phenomenal. This year everyone sucks. Rielly, while playing amazing, isn’t good enough defensively and doesn’t play enough minutes to be considered a “top 3 D”
Johnson isn’t worth as much as Kap. You may think so, but majority of people would beg to differ. I could value Guzental just as much as marner, doesn’t mean it’s right.
My value, which once again would be popular opinion this site:
Kase>Johnsson
Sprong>Bracco
This trade is miles off. I’m buddies with Rodzik IRL and when he posted it I screenshot it, put it in our GC, and everyone laughed at him, even fellow leafs fans. It ain’t close haha
No I agree the deal is light for sure but Manson has never put up a 40 point season..,
Reilly is a back to back 50 point player who is solid defensively. Not sure where that is coming from. Reilly has almost triple the points of Manson with one extra season.
This whole Reilly is not a top pairing Dman has got to go away. He has done all this with a corpse for a partner.
You can say what you want about kapanen=Johnsson but from watching them play the only differences I see is kappy is a bit faster and Johnsson was snake bitten the first 18 games of the season. Just bad luck, he made a lot of goaltenders work. Kappy has 38 points in 100 games and Johnsson has 24points in 49 games so even at ppg he is doing better than kappy.
To me Johnsson May be more valuable as a left handed forward as far as team needs.
The deal is for sure light even mine may be a bit light but that is really all I would give up for Manson other than maybe a 1st rather than a third but at that point you’re at 3 first round picks.... that has to be tops....might as well just send out an offersheet lol.
