Dude it’s not the best summer to trade a goalie. Markstrom, holtby, lehner, Crawford, halak, khudobin, tomas greiss, cam talbot, brian elliot, are all set to be free agent. Team will explore those avenue before trading a first round pick for a goalie.

It doesnt have to be a 1st. Even if they can get a 2nd and 3rd it would be a big W

The million dollar question...

If leafs move Andersen I think it would be at the TDL as a rental.

I assume this is the post I challenged you to? It's hard right, that bottom 6 isn't much stronger if at all stronger than what I proposed in my earlier post, Goaltending certainly isn't any better, Defense is no better. It's super hard to create a formidable bottom 6 , upgrade the D and put together a 22/23 man roster at 83 cap. Personally I'd opt to sell off the 9 million dollar third line at mediocre returns and sign the old boys top line club at league minimum and ride that top 6 like a hooker at a bachelor's party than sell any of the big 4 at a discount to free up cap

Wouldn't the Hawks be a lot better off just signing Markstrom and keeping their pick. Again more silly extension talk. Not sure how the Jersey trade helps the Leafs.

The NJ trade makes them so much better. If the leafs sign Markstrom that means hes off the board and there arent many other good options

Hes expiring. My other point about moving him is that it's the logical thing to do. Upgrading at goalie for free and getting draft capital back for freddy is so much better. Markstrom is better then Andersen, anything they get in return for him is a bonus

The goaltending is way way way better and so is the defense. The leafs are built to attack in waves, a 3rd line like this can be trusted against better opponents leaving one of the first two lines to go up against other teams 3rd pairs.
I dont think kapanen makes that 2nd line a whole lot better then what it would be if mikheyev or hyman were there. He also makes the 3rd line so much more of an offensive threat. The 2-3 million difference in cost is worth it when you turn what would be a very average line to one of the best 3rd lines in the league.

Interesting claim from a TOR fan. I personally like Andersen better than Markström, although both a great goalies.

I'll politely disagree on your assessment of your setup, Goaltending way way better? It's the same at most Freddie has been the backbone of the Leafs for 4 seasons Markstrom has 1 season of true #1 tending to his name, Severson over Brodie that's a tough sell sure Severson is younger but better not really, you've added Zacha to the third line and moved soup up in the top 6 and Kap back to the third line not much difference there either I am a fan of aquiring Zacha as he's a younger and less expensive C than Kerfoot but nothing about that third line screams watch out or shutdown top lines in the league it's an average 3rd line that's it. What you have certainly done is given the Leafs one of the league's worst 4th lines and weakened the PK significantly

Andersen has had a bad year but even besides the fact that Markstrom has had a better year he is also a top 5 goalie in the nhl. Hes playing behind a terrible defense and a bunch of different people from the bigger Stats companies like Clearsight and Sportlogiq say his say hes in the top 5. I'm not sure what stats they use but the majority of NHL teams pay for them. They looked at his GSAA and they have more advanced xG models that take pre shot movement into account so he will look a lot better then a goalie who constantly faces head on shots and doesnt have to worry about any sort of back door type passes. They say he's been a great goalie for a few seasons now, the reports on him are that hes in fantastic shape and hes a very hard worker.

I think freddy is better then what hes been this season but the gap between the two is bigger then most people think.

Pretty good analysis.

If I were TOR I'd be a tad worried about his ability stay healthy to be fair. This year he has suffered some injuries, and as he ages that isn't going to get any better. He's already 30+ as well as Andersen is.

But I digress. Frankly, I don't see VAN letting him go at the end of the day. I don't see them trusting Demko to take the 1G slot just yet.

I just made a post before this one about why Markstrom is better then freddy. Severson isnt as good in the offensive zone but hes far and away the better defender and a way better puck mover. Hes very good at moving the puck out with control and being right handed helps a ton. Even if brodie can play the RS I still think severson is better overall with his defensive ability and hes also younger and cheaper. Zacha isnt as good offensively or a passer as kerfoot but hes so good defensively. Hes also one of the best penalty killers in the league. Hes exceptional at blocking passing lanes and preventing high danger chances. One think he does on the pk is he skates the puck into the oz and pins the puck to the boards killing a bunch of time.

I wouldn't trust them full time against the Bergeron or Point line but I wouldnt be afraid if they had to go out and play a couple of low event shifts against lines like them each game. All 3 guys are good offensively and very good off the rush.

The 4th line is the best in the league. I put Korshkov in there at 4lw but it could be anyone really. Dressing 11 forwards means that they will have to give those 6-7 minutes gauthier would be getting to AM, JT, MM, WN who all deserve more time. Taking out gauthier dowsnt make their pk any worse. Hes not that great and they have a ton of guys who can. On defense they have muzzin, Holl, severson and marincin who are all very good penalty killers. On forward they also have a ton of guys. The only thing gauthier does is go out there to try and win the faceoff. Spezza, Tavares, matthews and zacha are all better at faceoffs. Like I said before, zacha is one of the best killers in the league, the devils have a power kill system where they pressure the other team and end up creating a bunch of chances, he would fit right in with the leafs. On this roster they also have mikheyev, hyman, Tavares, marner, engvall, kapanen and korshkov to an extent but he isnt that great. They have at least 7 forwards who can kill, eight if they dress gauthier. I think the players I think they should being in improve their pk a bit. Their pk right now is bad but I think its Hakstol who's making it much worse

It entirely depends on his situation but I would think he would get some sort of NTC that would force Vancouver to protect him over demko but they could also make a trade with Seattle to take someone else.

I like your idea of signing Markstrom and trading Andersen. I was going to hold off on what to do with Andersen based on playoff results but the season may be over.

I do think it's wise to move Andersen as unpopular of an opinion as it may be.

Agreed, especially if you get Markstrom with term at 5 million AAV.

I like this. You already know I like Zacha and Markstrom, and I'm not the biggest fan of Severson, but there aren't many better realistic options. If NJ would make that trade I would if I were Dubas. I've been a huge supporter of Andersen and at one point asked people if they'd rather have him than Rielly, but now I can't see the Leafs keeping Andersen beyond his current contract. I don't think they will trade him but they should or at least seriously consider it. @Jack_ has the right idea by trading him for assets and looking for a replacement and it seems we agree on who Freddy's replacement should be.

You've had many great ideas so if you already answered this I apologize but who is your top choice for D to pair with Morgan? And what say you about this sir? Does this take the cake or is it the worst case Ontario lol (I had to throw in the TPB reference 😆).

Severson is better defensively than he is offensively.
Ische 1st pair, not sure but I'd think that's where he gets slotted.

Jones is the dream, forever.

Good points. I agree with your take that he's likely not a top pair d but he'd be our best option and he would absolutely improve our d.

Did I turn you on to Seth or were you always a fan? For me the dream is for Columbus to fire Jarmo for no good reason and hire Chia so Dubas can rob him like Shero did with the Hall for Larson trade lol.

Severson is more of a number #3 but imo hes an above average three. If you check out his hockey reference his stats are down because hes on the devils and he doesn't have a d partner but If he were to play with one of rielly, sandin or dermott he would be exceptional. If this trade were to happen they would have Rielly and severson in the 2nd pair (muzzin and holl against top competition) and they would dominate. We've seen that it doesnt take much for someone to put up good numbers with rielly. If he has a strong defensive partner who can move the puck up the ice with control (something hainsey, zaitsev or any of his partners besides barrie can do), they would be a fantastic pairing. IMO severson compliments rielly so well but still fits into the keefe/dubas mould of being skilled and smart. Muzzin-holl, Rielly-Severson and Sandin-Liljegren is an extremely strong D core

I agree, I think Severson is a number 3 but he problem is people on here act like he's Drew Doughty in his prime and think he should bring a return that justifies that. You're a very smart dude and I take what you say seriously because you deserve that respect so if you say he's better than I give him credit for I will take you at your word. I should also note it's not that I don't like him or anything but like I said some people on here completely overvalue some players and I think he's one of them. IMO the most valuable thing about him is his contract, great player but I wouldn't break the bank to acquire him. You also make a good point about him playing on a crappy team which I've thought of and try not to use that against him. I also agree that would be a strong d core but I wouldn't be afraid to put Rielly/Severson against the oppositions best players if the situation calls for it. Hypothetically, let's say Severson is a no go who would be your next choice? And is Severson your top choice or just your top realistic choice? My top choice is Seth Jones but I understand that's not a reality.

I agree, I think Severson is a number 3 but he problem is people on here act like he's Drew Doughty in his prime and think he should bring a return that justifies that. You're a very smart dude and I take what you say seriously because you deserve that respect so if you say he's better than I give him credit for I will take you at your word. I should also note it's not that I don't like him or anything but like I said some people on here completely overvalue some players and I think he's one of them. IMO the most valuable thing about him is his contract, great player but I wouldn't break the bank to acquire him. You also make a good point about him playing on a crappy team which I've thought of and try not to use that against him. I also agree that would be a strong d core but I wouldn't be afraid to put Rielly/Severson against the oppositions best players if the situation calls for it. Hypothetically, let's say Severson is a no go who would be your next choice? And is Severson your top choice or just your top realistic choice? My top choice is Seth Jones but I understand that's not a reality.


Seth jones would be great but hes also very overrated. Theis season hes tied with Justin Holl in GAR. If you go back and look at Evolving hockey's model and Micah Blake Mccurdy's stuff they arent so high on him. I still think hes a fantastic defenseman on a good contract but I wouldnt give up marner or Nylander for him. Manson would be nice and pesce would be great but also cost way to much. The gap between severson and manson/pesce isnt a whole lot. I'm not so high on tanev. Gudas would be my 2nd option though. Hes having a bit of a down year but before joining the caps hes always had very good numbers. He wont cost much and hes a ufa so that's a bonus. Hes definitely not a 1st pair guy but hes always had good xG numbers and would do every well on the 2nd pair with rielly or even if they did a 1a 1b kind of thing they would be great.

Most people on here think of him as a gudbranson type of guy but hes a decent puck mover and brings that physical element. Hes scary to play against because you never know when hes going to go off and kill someone but he'd be a great puck retriever for rielly. Hes great infront of the net so he doesnt give up many high danger scoring chances and his zone exit numbers are solid (not his exit percentage but the sheer number of times hes able to get the puck out with control is crazy for a guy like him). I like his neutral zone defending and his pk work. Hes also gotten positive results with whomever hes played with. When Ghostbear and provarov got their best results was when they were with Gudas. Hes also managed to get great results with so awful partner so we can tell that he wasnt just leaning on his partners. Most of what hes done has been on the 2nd or 3rd pair but it doesnt take much to do well with rielly. Rielly-hainsey was at least break even, guess is a far better skater and puck mover. I also think hes better defensively.
